Coloring is a form of mindful meditation; it can induce calm, encourage reflection, and improve one's focus. The images on these pages are detailed; they take time to bring to life with color. By spending time coloring in this book, you will be engaging with the stories of the women whose words accompany the images. Engaging in art, even art as simple as coloring, can relieve stress. Contemplating the quotes of these great women may increase your own sense of courage, self-esteem, and self-compassion. This is a gift for a woman you know who needs the encouragement of great women in history, coupled with a centering, soothing activity she can turn to for comfort. It is a gift to give someone you care about, including yourself.
