Founder, Still&Slow

UPDATE! I honestly did not expect this to go viral. Thank you for all the love. Still&Slow is very close to selling out again.

I'm Marie, the founder of Still&Slow. I created this one-color coloring book because nothing else was working - not the meditation apps gathering dust, not the "relaxing" scrolls that left me more drained. I needed something simpler. Something that didn't demand another decision.

I thought the anxious mind and quiet exhaustion were mine alone. Then I shared the early sketches, and thousands of women wrote back: "I feel exactly like this."

If you're reading this at 11pm with your phone still in your hand - this is for you.

If you've downloaded three meditation apps and opened none - this is for you.

If you've tried a coloring book before and ended up stressed picking between four shades of pink - this is especially for you.

Here are the 6 moments that shaped Still&Slow.

1. The Night My Mind Just Wouldn’t Slow Down

Lying in bed, exhausted, but my brain was solving every problem at once. That buzzing, anxious feeling where thoughts jump around and you can't catch a breath.

That night I realized every "relaxing" activity I'd tried still demanded decisions. Which app? Which color? Which playlist? I was drowning in micro-choices and calling it self-care.

I needed the opposite. One page. One pen. One color. Remove the choices, and the mind finally lets go. That became the entire philosophy behind Still&Slow.

2. When I Realized My “Relaxation Time” Was Actually Just More Screen Time

I told myself I was unwinding after work. Really, I was scrolling. Thirty minutes would pass - thumb tired, eyes stinging - and somehow I felt worse than before. Like I'd eaten something that didn't nourish me.

I wanted a way to unwind that didn't require a screen, a skill, or a single decision. Just a pen, a page, and a moment where everything slows down.

3. The Day I Threw Out My First Coloring Book

Before Still&Slow, I tried the cheap ones. Twelve dollars on Amazon, pretty cover.

The marker bled through within seconds. The open lines still forced my brain to decide how to fill each shape. The book wouldn't lay flat.

I ended up more frustrated than when I started. That's when I realized: if a coloring book is meant to calm you down, every detail has to be designed for that.

Not thin paper. Not recycled illustrations. Not open lines that hand the mental load right back to you.

So I started building the one I actually wanted to own.

4. The Airport That Turned It Into a Pocket Ritual

Stuck in a terminal, flight delayed, anxiety creeping up. Nothing around me felt grounding. I wanted something tiny and soothing I could pull out without a whole setup.

Three minutes into the first page, my jaw unclenched. I hadn't even noticed it was tight.

That's when I knew Still&Slow had to be more than a book. It had to be a pocket ritual - calm you can carry with you, wherever your day takes you.

5. The Friends Who Kept Asking "Where Did You Get That?"

My friends started noticing. At coffee shops, on planes, in waiting rooms - they'd ask to flip through it, then immediately ask where to buy one.

A few of them confessed they'd tried coloring books before and given up. "Too busy, too complicated, too kid." But the one-color format felt different. Adult. Quiet. Boutique-feeling, not stationery-aisle.

It stopped being just my thing. It became the gift I gave for birthdays, for hard weeks, for friends who "had everything." A tiny doorway into calm.

6. 6000+ Reviews Later, I Still Read Every One

When I launched, I hoped a few women might feel calmer. I never expected thousands.

"I'm neurospicy and even simple decisions stress me out. Regular coloring meant choosing colors sucked all the peace out. This? Instant obsession." - Sarah K.

"I lost my mom 3 years ago and turned to art therapy. I wish I'd had these then. Not having to decide medium, color, paper, it's so freeing." - Jennifer M.

"Coloring is cathartic for me, but I hate choosing colors. Literally the perfect stress reliever." - Rebecca T.

Reading these is still the best part of my day. Because for so many of us, Still&Slow isn't just a book - it's a gentle return to something we all forgot we needed.

Try It Today - If You Don't Love It, It's Free

Still&Slow comes with a 30-day calming guarantee. If you don't feel quieter, more grounded, and a little bit happier, we'll refund you in full.

6000+ Have Loved The Still&Slow Ritual

Love it

This book was amazing got it a month ago and finished it already

Love the cities edition as all the editions I have now purchased.
The only reason I didnt give 5 stars is because I would like the brush markers to come in a finer point as the images have some very fine details and there is no way to use the markers from this company for this.

The newest book i have is wellness and as my image shows the details again are too fine for their markers

Love it!

I love these coloring books they make me so calm and able to relax

I’ve purchased 8 books already and color every day. They have really helped my anxiety! Thank you.

Sooooo happy with my coloring book! Using only a black marker does something magical to my anxious brain! Ready to purchase another one!

I LOVE the one color aspect of these books. Very relaxing! I usually choose a different color for every picture. Sometimes I go crazy and do different sections in diff colors. Either way it’s so fun!

Love it , love it, love it!

Love Love Love your books ! Hells with just winding down after a long day

I think this is my favorite one so far. I love all of the straight lines and the beautiful buildings

Love it. Images are cute and fun. Make me smile every time

Good quality paper. Nice designs. Very relaxing.

I initially bought it to relax at night, but it quickly turned into an obsession, coloring all times in the day and night. I was scheduled for an MRI yesterday afternoon, and was a little anxious, so I started a new page on my Still &Slow “original” edition before I left for the appointment. A few minutes into the MRI I started to feel panicky, but then I just imagined coloring the page I had started, and my breathing slowed and I began to relax. Finished 30 minutes MRI with no anxiety!

Fancy this colour for France and Bright Pink for USA

Great quality! I just wish it was easier to know each marker’s thickness without opening the cap.

It took forever to arrive and I needed this so much!! I’m grateful for it. I just wish it was easier to distinguish marker thickness without having to open each one. The book itself is great. I will ask for more as gifts because of the cost, but it is VERY worth it.

I absolutely love this book and the markers! They color so smoothly and the picture are really cute!

Thank you, Dana. Your page looks lovely! If you love Autumn, Autumn Edition II is now available 🍂

Love these books. Working on them calms my anxiety and is just darn fun.
Thank you for removing the anxiety of choosing the wrong color.

Thank you, Jamie. No wrong colors, just fun and calm. Your page looks lovely 💚

Really nice images. Relaxing and stress free colouring.

Thank you, Elizabeth. Your page looks beautiful. Stress free is exactly the idea 🌿

It helps me with my depression and anxiety and stress thank you so so much

Thank you so much for sharing this, Sarah. We're so touched it brings you a little calm each day. Thank you for the lovely photo too 🤍

Absolutely love the animal one !! Need fine tip markers though, sometimes hard to stay in the lines

Thank you, Melissa. Good news: there's no need to be perfect, the scene still comes together beautifully. We've shared your fine tip idea with our team 🌿

Very relaxing. Only have to pick one color and a beautiful picture comes out.

Thank you, Lynn. One color, a beautiful picture, no stress. That's the whole idea 💚

I absolutely love this coloring book! I love that they send the pens WITH refillable ink. It is totally true that the pages are thick enough that the ink does not bleed through, so that’s great too! I did like 6 of the coloring pages over the weekend because it was just so relaxing!!! I genuinely cannot recommend this enough for people who like the tedium of coloring books but struggle with the decision fatigue of what color to choose.

Thank you, Emily. Six pages in one weekend, we love that! Your pages look beautiful. If you're ready for more, Autumn II and Halloween are now available 🍂

I just love it so much especially being ADHD it’s fabulous not to have to think about colours!! The finished product looks amazing too!!

Thank you, Evie. No thinking about colors, just enjoying the moment. Your page looks amazing 💚
