On top of a big open lotus flower, a woman with long wavy hair sits cross-legged in this meditation coloring page. Her eyes are closed and her hands rest on her knees. The flower floats on a pond drawn with ripple lines, six lily pads and two lotus buds on stems. It is a medium-level page for ages 10 and up, teens and adults, with layered petals that take some patience.

How this coloring page was created

For this page, we typed this idea into Colorin AI: "a woman meditating in a cross-legged pose on top of a big open lotus flower floating on a calm pond, with her eyes closed and her hands resting on her knees, with lily pads and gentle ripples around the flower, with the whole drawing kept above an empty white margin at the bottom of the page". The woman, the lotus flower and the pond all come from that idea.

How to use it

A yoga or mindfulness teacher can hand it out at the end of a class for a few quiet minutes. A counselor can pair it with a breathing exercise, in which the person sits like the woman for a few slow breaths and then colors the petals one layer at a time. Adults can shade the petals from deep pink at the center to pale pink at the tips. To change the person or the flower, design a meditation coloring page of your own.
