Alarm blares! Wake up, hop in the shower, grab a bagel (no time for cream cheese), run out the door and off to class. Spend every spare moment studying, even sometimes while walking across campus to your next class. Then bundle your backpack into the back seat of your car and you're off to your part-time job. Home again, study until you fall asleep, drool on the pages of your Chemistry textbook. Drag yourself to bed, sleep a few hours, start all over again. All while worrying about grades and that massive essay your English prof just asked you to write and how in the heck you're going to pay for it all.
The pressures of academic life can be daunting. But there are ways to help relieve some of that stress.
Coloring just happens to be one of them.
Not only does coloring relieve stress, it can actually enhance creativity (you're going to need that to BS your way through that massive essay), improve focus, quiet the mind, and reduce negative thoughts.
Who knew?!?
At Artistic Chaos Ink, we offer all kinds of coloring products perfect for the stressed-out student.
How about a giant sloth coloring poster for your dorm? Tack it to the wall, put out a bowl full of colored pencils, let the residents have at it.

At the other extreme, how about a pocket-sized coloring book, just the size to drop in the little front pocket of your backpack. Pull it out and color for 5 minutes while you're waiting for class to start.
