Color Your Mind: Brain Health Activity Book
From bestselling author and Alzheimer's advocate Maria Shriver comes the first coloring book created for brain health and people with Alzheimer's.
This interactive coloring book is filled with inspiration and information that was developed in partnership with neurologists, psychologists, caregivers, and, of course, people with Alzheimer's. Each coloring page also features prompts to help people with Alzheimer's and their caregivers create, connect, and reflect.
Color Your Mind combines coloring with useful brain health tips about: - Nutrition
- Exercise
- Social Connection
- Sleep
- ...and other valuable lessons for a fulfilling, balanced life. The activities, images, and approach in Color Your Mind were developed and refined through visits to nursing homes and memory care facilities. These visits and interactions also informed the selection of cheerful, inspiring coloring images throughout the book.

About the Author
Thompson, Brita Lynn: - In June 2014, Brita Lynn was chosen out of 4,000 plus entries as the winner for Starbucks "White Cup Contest." Her design was reproduced onto their reusable cups online and in every store in the US and Canada during that summer. Winning the contest launched Brita Lynn's dream to have a business of her own. The day before they announced her as the winner, Brita Lynn created her Etsy shop. After winning, her social media following exploded. Brita Lynn now has the opportunity to connect and ship all over the world. Just a few years ago, she never thought she would have a business, a business for--and supported by--her art. It all happened fast and has been nonstop ever since. Brita Lynn still remembers the email she got from Starbucks right before they announced to world that she was the winner. The email said, "Be tough, be ready, because your life is about to change." It did, and she couldn't be happier.
Praise for this book
"Out of the countless coloring books being sold today, 'Color Your Mind' is truly one of a kind."
-- the Today Show, NBC "This coloring book fills an unmet need and it can facilitate meaningful time and interactions between people with Alzheimerʼs, their family members, and caregivers."
-- Dr. Richard Isaacson, Director of the Alzheimerʼs Prevention Clinic, Cornell Medical College "The thought and work that has gone into it are very obvious. Itʼs so important to find activities that can be engaging for family members and patients. Itʼs very well done and I can see the care, concern and beauty coming through on this project!"
-- Robin Ketelle, Cognitive Psychology, Emotion, Developmental Psychology R.N., University of California, SF I am very impressed with the layout of the book. The creative ideas, formats, and the simple yet captivating projects are adequate for the clients you are reaching out to. Color Your Mind allows for individual creativity and it also encourages care-givers and families to become involved. Bonding through coloring, drawing, music, crafting, laughing, as well as, a positive sense of humor provide an unthreatening atmosphere for dementia, or Alzheimer's patients to live, love and flourish."
