Upgrade Your May: Day 6 - Colours, Colour Theory & Mindful Colouring

Upgrade Your May: Day 6 - Colours

Hiya! Welcome to Day 5 where we talk about all things colour and colour therapy! I have to say this upgrade was an eye opener for me, I had no idea how much the right the colours could do for our mindset and confidence. And to me that is right up my street and fits beautifully with the concept of Upgrade Your Day. Look at my yellow scarf! It makes me so happy and that is totally the point!

In today's podcast I chat to the lovely Heidi about her journey as a colourist and the joy she is bringing to peoples lives. You can listen to the podcast by clicking the podcast image below or use your phone camera to scan the QR code to listen on your phone!

Today's freebies include your first mindful colouring page! Print it out, grab your pens and pencils and have a good old colour. Have a read of the info page first, then download your first page.

I LOVE to see how people do these pages. They're always so different, and that's the beauty of them. There are no rules. Whether you choose to use just 3 favourite colours like I suggested in the video, or fill the shapes in with doodles and dots, or use oil paints, who cares! You took a few minutes for you, to reset, be calm, and switch off for a bit, and you deserved it. And the product of that is what I love to see. 

So please share yours in the comments on Facebook or tag me in them on Instagram (@upgradeyourday) and upgrade MY day with your creations.

​There are a few of these throughout the month. All very different, so I do hope you like them. It really is a great excuse to take a break, and get away from that screen for a bit. 

We've also done a couple of info sheets to download. One about the theory of colour, and the other all about how to do a bit of mindful colouring. Hope you enjoy them and get stuck in.
