Empower Yourself: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Colouring Book

One solution is Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). One of the fastest-growing and evidence-based therapies and training approaches in the world.

I love ACT because it's flexible, scientific, kind, compassionate, open and allows you to be creative and practice it however works for you. So one way is to colour in quotes from ACT!

You can colour in this book however you wish. You can start from the beginning and make your way through. Or you can pick a quote that resonates with you and start there.

Take your time. No need to rush. Take a deep breath and be present as you colour in. And honour any thoughts and emotions as they arise.

Here's what some people have said about our work:

Shamash Alidina has a broad and deep knowledge of Mindfulness. His teaching is welcoming, informative and delivered with kindness and compassion. He "walks the talk". Everyone has permission to have their own experience and that can be good and not so good, different moment to moment. I enjoy learning and practising with Shamash.

Shamash has inspired me to keep learning, and kept me returning to learn with him. Shamash has a sense of fun, playfulness, ease, compassion and kindness in his sessions.

Shamash is an inspirational, fun loving teacher, generous with his time and wisdom. His courses are full of valuable content and his presentation skills provide for a stimulating and uplifting learning environment. If you want to learn about mindfulness from the best and funniest teacher, you need Shamash! Highly recommended.

Really relaxing and enjoyable - There is no pressure to be/do anything. The mindful meditation is life changing. Meditation was not new to me but this approach has enabled me to actually enjoy the experience of meditation. Most importantly I have fun doing it and at last really understand self-care. Who will ever forget that 1% smile?
