Mental Health & Stress Reduction

De-Compress Your Stress Doodle and Draw, Write and Release

Stress can be caused by multiple factors. Each person reacts to and manages stress differently. When the body perceives a threat, the sympathetic nervous system is activated, triggering the "fight or flight" response, which is one of early man's basic primordial survival skills. The fight or flight response is the body's response to a real or perceived threat or challenge. Journaling, doodling, drawing, free writing, or any activity that one enjoys and does not find threatening or challenging can be relaxing and fun. In threatening, non-intimidating, or non-challenging environments, the parasympathetic nervous system has the opportunity to restore balance, homeostasis, and calmness. Draw! Doodle! Free write! Have fun! Keep De-Compress Your Stress, Doodle and Draw, Write and Release in your desk, car dashboard, nightstand, computer case, or purse. Take it with you while waiting to board a plane... During your flight... Waiting for your doctor or dentist appointment... During a boring meeting... On a long road trip... While your children take a nap... During a soothing bath... Whenever you want to take a break.
