The Genesis of The 64 Faces of Awakening Coloring Book


​An astounding number of overwhelmed and overworked adults are now turning to coloring books to soothe the stressed out soul
,
reclaim the creative spirit, and have some (much needed) fun. 

I experienced these very same longings during a particularly stressful time in my life—to drop in, fret less and play more.


I yearned for simplicity, and a way to deal with the despair I felt in relation to the seemingly endless stream of suffering that pervades our planet. Little did I know that my decision to spend a little time doodling, as a simple act of self-care, would lead to the birth of the 64 Faces of Awakening, and eventually The 64 Faces of Awakening Coloring Book. ​
The creative process behind the birth of the 64 Faces of Awakening was mysterious, whimsical and deeply intuitive. I began the journey with absolutely no agenda, using nothing more than black ink on white paper.  Welcoming one face after another through this deeply meditative process did not only heal and soothe my stressed out soul, it allowed me to work through my own grief about the wounded and conflictual state of the world. The Wisdom Keepers showed me that all of us—no matter where we come from, how old we are, or what religion, ethnicity and nationality we belong to—have the same potential to be fully awake, present, and to live from the heart.

As I began to share the Wisdom Keepers with others, I noticed that they too would gaze into the eyes of these wise beings, and feel seen, cherished and supported. It was as if the Wisdom Keepers invited people to relax, to be themselves and to trust that everything was going to be okay, even during challenging times.

​The 64 Faces of Awakening were no longer just drawings for people. They were friends, guides and mentors, transmitters of presence and compassion, with their own stories to tell and wisdom to impart. And so I embarked on the next phase of the journey, allowing the Wisdom Keepers to speak to and through me as archetypal messengers of compassion and presence. This process resulted in the birth of The Wisdom Keepers Oracle Deck and The Wisdom Keepers Inner Guidebook.

After the Oracle Deck and Inner Guidebook came out, I had the wonderful opportunity to watch more and more people read the Wisdom Keepers’ stories, receive their gifts of wisdom and contemplate their evocative questions. I witnessed their comforting, empowering and healing impact.  

I also began to feel a strong and natural pull to infuse the faces with color. As I allowed myself to play with the rainbow and follow my self-expressive instincts, a warmth and vitality permeated my meditative process. The relationships I experienced with each of the Wisdom Keepers became increasingly alive and personal. 

Eventually other people began feeling the same creative impulse. My daughter and her friends were the first to insist on coloring in the faces.

But then clients, friends and customers who had purchased Wisdom Keeper art prints spontaneously began their own experiments. I watched how the coloring process made room for their emotions, relaxed their bodies, and transported them into deeply restorative states of being.

​
For thousands of years, color has been used as a healing modality and language of the soul. Carl Jung encouraged his patients to color mandalas as a means of self-exploration and meditation. Now I could see the Wisdom Keepers' potential to act as human mandalas, offering people a uniquely intimate opportunity to explore their feelings, relieve their stress, discover their Gifts and express their authentic selves. Creating The 64 Faces of Awakening Coloring Book was the natural next step in my ever-evolving journey.

​I certainly have experienced great pleasure coloring in these faces.  It is my deepest hope that you do too.    

With love, 
Rosy
