Light MEDS Card (Free Download)

Start your focus on getting more Light into your life with this free downloadable coloring card.

WHY LIGHT IS IMPORTANT:

Having more light in your life will support you shining your true essence, the light that you are.  We lose light when we are feeling down, a dark mood, so much going on we don’t tune into the light that we are.  Sometimes, it’s hard to find light because life just seems dark and depressing. We can feel this darkness from within.

When we reconnect with light, we feel a lightness and sense of light inside. When we let this little light of mine shine, shine on, no matter what is going on. 

HOW COLORING CAN HELP:

Coloring intentional words helps you to engage with the present by noticing and focusing on the quality you want to bring into your life.  While doing this, the mind will wander, but it should always be brought back to the object of focus without judging or being distracted by the content of those wandering thoughts. While moving your crayon, pen, or colored pencil through the intricate shapes on the page, your mind is focusing, often to the exclusion of unpleasant thoughts and the feelings which accompany them.

Coloring calms activity in the amygdala, a part of the brain that handles the “fight or flight” response. This response is a condition in which the body is in a heightened  state of panic and hyper-vigilance—it’s your brain trying to help you fight against something dangerous or, alternatively, to help you flee from it.  This can lead to inflammation—a state in which the body has been overstimulated by stress hormones, and is harming and exhausting itself. You may already know that inflammation is the root of many disorders, including asthma, high blood pressure, Alzheimer’s, and arthritis, and is a silent killer.  Coloring disarms the amygdala, which, in turn, calms our bodies and brains.
