the Relaxation Rainbow

The brief: To design and illustrate a book of relaxations aimed at children aged 4-12. The book offers a series of nine guided visualizations, each focusing on yoga, breathwork, as well as the colors of the rainbow – inviting the reader on a soothing and nurturing journey.

This was a wonderful project to be involved with — a beautifully written book of relaxation exercises for children, needing illustrations and a design that would feel calm, playful, and engaging for young readers.

I used a gentle, dreamy illustration style combining hand drawn and digital techniques, each illustration evoking the essence of its rainbow colour and the nature of the relaxation exercises.

Katie Brown is a renowned yoga lecturer, restorative yoga expert and guided relaxation specialist. The book can be found on her website or on Amazon.
