In a category all its own, </strong><strong><em>Color Your Mind </em></strong>is the first and only coloring book created specifically for people with Alzheimer's.</p> <p>Authored by award-winning journalist, best-selling author, and Alzheimer's advocate <strong>Maria Shriver</strong>, this book was developed with insights from caregivers, neurologists, psychologists, and, of course, people with Alzheimer's. <em>Color Your Mind </em>is a resource for caregivers, family, and friends to help forge communication and connection with people with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia.</p> <p>Each coloring page is accompanied by relevant information and prompts to help people with Alzheimer's and their caregivers to create, connect, and reflect. <em>Color Your Mind</em> is unique in that it connects coloring with helpful information about wellness, social connection, nutrition, exercise, moving the mind, and sleep--all valuable lessons for a fulfilling, balanced life. </p> <p>The activities, images, and approach in <em>Color Your Mind</em> were developed and refined through visits to nursing homes and memory care facilities. These visits and interactions also informed the selection of cheerful, inspiring coloring images throughout the book.</p> <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> Out of the countless coloring books being sold today, 'Color Your Mind' is truly one of a kind.<br><i>-- the Today Show, NBC</i> <p/> "This coloring book fills an unmet need and it can facilitate meaningful time and interactions between people with Alzheimerʼs, their family members, and caregivers."<br> <i>-- Dr. Richard Isaacson, Director of the Alzheimerʼs Prevention Clinic, Cornell Medical College</i> <p/> "The thought and work that has gone into it are very obvious. Itʼs so important to find activities that can be engaging for family members and patients. Itʼs very well done and I can see the care, concern and beauty coming through on this project!"<br> <i>-- Robin Ketelle, Cognitive Psychology, Emotion, Developmental Psychology R.N., University of California, SF</i> <p/> I am very impressed with the layout of the book.

Maria creates socially conscious television, books, films and digital media with the purpose of informing, inspiring and igniting hearts and minds in a discussion that produce positive impact in the world. Shriver's work is driven by her belief that all of us have the ability to be what she calls Architects of Change -- people who see a problem in their own life or the community around them, then step out of their comfort zone and do what it takes to create the solution. Her website, MariaShriver.com, features life stories and life lessons from Architects of Change aimed at inspiring people to use their own ideas, influence and initiative to go out and make an impact on our world. Maria is one of the nation's leading advocates for families struggling with Alzheimer's disease. Her father, Sargent Shriver, was diagnosed with the disease in 2003 and passed away from it in 2011 at the age of 95. In 2009, Shriver co-executive produced the Emmy Award-winning four-part HBO documentary series called The Alzheimer's Project, which opened millions of people's eyes to the devastating disease. One of the films in the series, Grandpa, Do you Know Who I Am? was honored by the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences for exemplifying television with a conscience and was based on Shriver's best-selling children's book dealing with Alzheimer's. In 2009, Shriver testified before the U.S. Senate Special Committee on Aging to encourage Congress to make Alzheimer's a national legislative priority. Shriver's voice was instrumental in the December 2010 passage of the National Alzheimer's Project Act. In addition, Shriver serves on the advisory board of the Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health in Las Vegas and continues to advocate for patients and families alike.
