The baby is finally asleep. And your firstborn is standing next to you — not asking for anything, but really asking for everything.
This is that book.
The Shine Om Mindful Colouring Book was made for quiet moments between a parent and their child — moments where you don’t have to say anything, fix anything, or be anything other than present. Just colour the same page together.
That’s enough. For right now, that is completely enough.
A creative tool to help your children relax, connect, and find calm — one page at a time.
Designed by a yoga and mindfulness teacher, Shine Om’s Mindful Colouring Book blends creativity, movement, and emotional awareness to support your child’s well-being.

Why We Created This Book
This book is three years in the making — shaped by motherhood, slow creative seasons, and the belief that mindful rituals can become lifelong anchors for calm.
Each page includes child-friendly affirmations and gentle yoga poses to support emotional regulation, creative expression, and physical well-being.
At home, we use it every day. My daughters and I sit down together and let the colouring create the space — for breath, for conversation, and for stillness.
It’s more than a colouring book. It’s a way to reconnect.
