Mindful Doodling

Mindful Doodling - have you heard of it? Sometimes known as Zen-Doodling, or ‘ZenTangle’, it’s basically allowing yourself time to just play with a pen and paper, creating patterns, and not worrying about the result.

Like I always say, the process is far more important than the result, so make sure you enjoy just doing it. It could be snatched moments here and there where you add to the same piece, or you could start afresh each time and leave it ‘unfinished’ (if that’s what you want to call it!).

I spent a few hours recently learning a few different kinds of doodling techniques and patterns - LOVED IT! Here’s what my daughter and I did. If you Google ‘zen-doodle techniques’ there’s lots to inspire you online!
