About this trial
Menopause is a natural life stage associated with hormonal changes that may affect women physically and psychologically. During this period, women may experience increased stress levels, negative attitudes toward menopause, and decreased mindfulness. Mandala coloring is a structured art-based intervention that may promote relaxation and improve psychological well-being. This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effect of mandala coloring on attitudes toward menopause, perceived stress, and mindfulness levels among menopausal women.
