Bernard O'Shea: There's no place for crayons in adult colouring

Need a stress reliever? Time to stock up on the big boy colouring pencils. Trust me, it's therapeutic

Longer working hours, higher cost of living and burnout among parents and professionals alike has led to an increased interest in adult colouring. The immersive mindful activity is said to decrease stress and anxiety. 

Last week we were on a little holiday down the country. We decided to rent a mobile home by the beach to keep the cost down and cook at home. What transpired was us eating out nearly every day. 

The thought of cooking the same meals for your kids on your holiday does not make it a holiday anymore. That was the rationale I convinced myself of. However, I love eating out, and our kids are getting that little bit older now, so dare I say it, we can almost enjoy the experience.
