12 antistress colouring pages with a translation twist

There are myriad ways to maintain our mental health—and doing so is especially important for ourselves and our communities at a time like this.

It feels like there is so much beyond our control. But there is still a lot we can control. It is within our power to get a grasp on anxiety as, clearly, there are many things we can do. Start with one of them today and be the force of calm in a world of unknown chaos.

  • Create an in-house workout (I’ve joined 6-week online challenge, and it helps immensely)
  • Cook healthy meals
  • Take a few minutes to meditate, take enough sleep
  • Call friends and family to stay socially connected
  • Create: draw, plant, write, cook or colour

And smile! Even if you don’t feel like smiling.

For me, drawing (and colouring) is a way to restore fine motor skills after days of typing, to cut off from the world for a while and set my boundaries.

Initially, I was planning to make a compilation of antistress colouring pages by the end of the year. But as nearly everyone has more free time on their hands right now, I thought it could be April as well.

Please click on the picture you like and save it to print out and colour. Or you can download all of them in one handy PDF file with 12 antistress colourings.

I am going to add the coloured variants as soon as I complete them (usually I use coloured pencils and markers/gouache).

If you notice a mistake or have an idea for a new colouring, feel free to leave a comment.
