The experience of anxiety is common to all humans and, for many, can lead to problems such as phobias, panic disorder, or generalized anxiety disorder. Indeed, anxiety disorders are the most common class of all psychological disorders (Kessler et al., 1994), and anxiety levels have increased significantly over the last half of the 20th century (Twenge, 2000). As such, it is important to develop a variety of effective means to help people decrease anxiety.<\/p>\n
Coloring may help encourage a state of deep engagement brought about through artistic expression and thus may help to decrease people\u2019s experiences of anxiety. The present study examined a method of decreasing anxiety called \u201ccoloring therapy\u201d (Belchamber, 1997) that combines elements of art therapy and meditation. The basic idea of coloring therapy is that when individuals color complex geometric forms, they are provided an opportunity to suspend their \u201cinner dialogue\u201d and to deeply engage in an activity that removes them from the flow of negative thoughts and emotions that can sometimes dominate their lives. Belchamber recommends that individuals color mandalas, which are symmetrical figures that have long been used as meditative objects in spiritual traditions (Cornell University Program of Computer Graphics, 2002; Jung, 1959).<\/p>\n
