Feline stressed? Would you like a cat-alyst to purr-fect peace in
your life? Ever watched enviously as your furry friend finds a
sunbeam and stretches out on it - on your bed - as you rush to
catch the bus? Follow this sound advice, straight from the moggie's
mouth, and maybe you can achieve catitude too. This is a humorous
guide to finding and appreciating - cat-style - those peaceful
moments amid the chaos and stress of working and domestic life.
It's no coincidence that your cat has decided to sleep on your
keyboard, or your tax return, or that report you should have
finished last week. They're saying, "Pay me attention and why not
get me some food while you're at it"... but they're also saying,
"Find the stillness within the detail, amid the tumult, of your
hectic life. Take some time for you to be you." Probably. This is a
cat's guide to beating anxiety, appreciating the moment and being
mindful. So look around you, take some time to smell the catnip,
take a lint roller to your hairy trousers, and try some
Meowditation. Eleanor Abraham is a Glasgow-based writer and editor.

Create peace and calm for yourself with Mindful Colouring, which
includes a 64-page book and a 150-sheet paper block with mandala
designs and patterns to colour in. For hundreds of years, mandalas
have been a source of inspiration for those who have meditated on
their qualities. Here, Cassandra Lorius has brought together a
unique collection of mandalas inspired by different traditions,
from Hindu to Celtic, and explains the symbols contained within
each one and the symbolic meanings of the colours used. Each
mandala has a special theme to spark your creative flair, from love
and compassion to gratitude and success. You will learn about the
power of colour as a pathway to tap into your inner self, and
colouring-in has been shown to reduce stress levels: the process is
like meditating, which is known to have numerous health benefits.
The paper block includes 150 sheets of mandala designs and patterns
for you to colour in, allowing you to experiment with different
colourways, and each can be kept and framed as a creative keepsake.
