Contemplative Coloring: The Tree of Life
More and more people are rediscovering what they already knew when they were kids—coloring is fun. What's more, coloring can lead us into a contemplative state, a deeper awareness of both our inner selves and the mysterious reality in which we live.
The Tree of Life images in this coloring book have been paired with short quotations about the spiritual meaning of trees, from authors as diverse as Herman Hesse and Buddha, Martin Luther and Black Elk. These quotations are offered for use as mental focal points as you color, and space has been provided to jot down any thoughts that may rise to the surface—but the point of this book is not to write but to color, not to shape your thoughts into words but to enter a quiet state of contemplation.
A tree My strength is trust. . . .
I live out the secret of my seed to the very end,
and I care for nothing else. I trust that God is in me.
I trust that my labor is holy. Out of this trust I live.
—Herman Hesse
