Coloring your way through menopause: a new study tests mandala therapy

This study explores whether coloring mandalas (intricate circular patterns) for 30 minutes once a week over 4 weeks can reduce menopause symptoms, improve sexual quality of life, and boost self-esteem in women aged 40-65 who are experiencing moderate to severe menopause symptoms. Participants will be split into two groups: one that colors mandalas and one that does nothing new. The study aims to see if this simple, low-cost activity offers relief without medication.
