Free Printable Downloads for Women 40+ Navigating the Hormonal Rollercoaster
Let’s be real—there are days when being a woman over 40 feels like riding a hormone-fueled tilt-a-whirl without the safety bar. Welcome to perimenopause, my friends. If you’ve ever found yourself sweating while standing in front of the fridge, crying over a puppy food commercial, or forgetting why you walked into a room (again), you’re in good company.
That’s exactly why I created these Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets—printable pages made especially for those “I swear if someone breathes near me I’m going to scream” moments.
What Are Calm Down Sheets?
These aren’t your typical mandala coloring pages. Nope. These were lovingly illustrated with women in perimenopause and menopause in mind—think messy buns, mood swings, and a whole lot of caffeine. Each sheet includes relatable cartoons, cheeky quotes, and stress-relieving doodles that are way more satisfying to color than pretending you’re fine.
They’re perfect for:
Rage coloring during a hot flash
Cooling down after snapping at your partner for chewing too loudly
Unwinding with a glass of wine and a pack of colored pencils
Quiet moments when your brain fog lifts just enough to enjoy something creative
Why Coloring Helps During Perimenopause
There’s science behind this, promise. Coloring helps lower cortisol levels, focus your mind, and gently ease anxious thoughts. It’s like a mindfulness practice, but one that doesn’t require Lycra or a meditation app subscription. And let’s be honest—when the world feels a bit much, giving a snarky mug or frazzled cartoon woman a splash of lavender and hot pink is downright cathartic.
Wonderful diy projects.
I’ve been top-knotting my hair for several months so this was easy peasy for me! Literally took me seconds and feels way more secure than a top knot. Love it! Thanks 🙂
I would more info for this easy do..How it is started and what is used to keep it together? thanks
this hairdo is an lie its saids its suppose to be for long thick hair but its not. Plus this hairstyle is not worth doing its not pretty.
Thanks for the feedback, I guess if you don’t like the hairstyle it doesn’t matter if it doesn’t suit you hair. Maybe the next Hair style post will interest you.
This is a very pretty style and I’d love to try it but would like more instructions as I’ve never made a bun before. How do you do the initial bun and how do you make it stay? And the last 2 parts of the bottom portion hair? I would appreciate any info and tips!
