Positive Coloring, Flow State and Mindfulness with Andréa Koehler pt. 2

In this episode, I talk with Andréa Koehler about the power of coloring and its connection to mindfulness and self-discovery. Andréa Koehler is an expert in using coloring as a tool for relaxation and self-reflection. She shares her own journey with coloring and how it helped her tap into a flow state. "Coloring engages three different types of brain activity, your creative brain, your kinesthetic brain, and your logical brain." ~ Andréa Koehler She also explains the science behind coloring and how it engages different parts of the brain, leading to a sense of calm and focus. Andréa breaks down the principles of the flow state and how coloring provides a framework for creative expression. She emphasizes the importance of active relaxation and how coloring allows the brain to process and solve problems. We also discuss the impact of coloring on mental health and well-being, and how it can be used as a tool for self-awareness and mindfulness. We also touch on the connection between coloring and other non-cognitive tasks, such as walking or showering, and how these activities can quiet the mind and foster deeper connections with oneself and others. Andréa shares her journey from creating coloring books to launching Coloring Broadway, a platform that combines mindfulness and musical theater.
