Colouring

I have been trying to chill out a little in the evenings.

Do something nice and easy, and not complicated, and not brain taxing.

If I just sit I do get bored, and then I eat and that is one thing that I really am trying to stop doing of an evening.

So instead I have been doing a lot of colouring.

I am trying hard to get back into a slimming world mindset, and one thing I do know is that I eat a lot when I just sit in the evenings.

And I need to keep my hands busy.

Colouring is perfect for that it means I am busy, but can still talk to Mr L, can still watch TV and don’t have free hands to just eat.

I also find it quite therapeutic.

I find it really calming and really relaxing.

I don’t have to think except for what colours to use, and that is as complicated as it gets.

Which is perfect, especially when I am tired and not wanting to overly think.
