Take a Break: Take an Art Break

Here’s a quick art break that can also help if you are ruminating (thinking the same thought continuously) or feeling anxious
 

• Take a look around and for 60 seconds (time yourself) count how many different colors you see.

• Is there a color that stands out more than another color? Why? Is there a color you notice is missing? Why?

• Close your eyes for 30 seconds. Breathe deeply

• Open your eyes and look around. Do you notice more colors this time?

• Do certain colors make you feel different?

• Think about adding more colors into spaces you spend a lot of time in that bring you a sense of calm. 

Try this in a different room. Outside. What do you notice?
