CHANGING YOUR MOOD WITH COLOURS
Color psychology is the study of how colors affect human behavior, mood, or physiological processes. Colors are thought to influence our buying choices, our feelings, and even our memories.
While perceptions of color are somewhat subjective, there are some color effects that have universal meaning. Colors in the red area of the color spectrum are known as warm colors and include red, orange, and yellow. These warm colors evoke emotions ranging from feelings of warmth and comfort to feelings of anger and hostility. Blue in general calls to mind feelings of calmness and confidence, green, the colour of nature, is associated with tranquility but also happiness and can be a stress reliever.
What colours makes you feel well?
Does your home include these colours in a sufficient way to impact your well-being?

@amiablePeace77
Thanks for this great post Pease. I how ever do not have colors that make me happy nor sad-lol. Weirdo huh
@RumpleSteeleSkin
We are all different, what do you respond to best?
@amiablePeace77
hi Peace miss ya! Well I think like I can wake up in a great mood and mostly its the karma around me. Silly right! That my friend I need to have more control over but some how it messes with my moods. And I think I get stuck in the "why" part
@RumpleSteeleSkin
Rumple, so glad to see you again here 😊💚. The "Why" question can hold us back, the "How" question can be the one leading us to better results. (as ex how can I make it a good day)
@amiablePeace77 so yes!
I love all colors! I think blues and yellows make me feel the happiest.
@MissPen
Nice Pen, the colour of calmness/confidence and happiness.
What colours makes you feel well?
blue makes me feel at home, calm.
Does your home include these colours in a sufficient way to impact your well-being?
not in decorating BUT I do have several blue plates or dinnerware blue sheets and covers blue jewelry and items of clothing.
@LPyMP
sounds you have a good selection of your fav color. Do you have particular times when you wear blue clothing?
@amiablePeace77
i know this sounds sappy but bc blue is my babes fave color, anytime I miss him or when we're together on a date night. I associate that color with calm, safety with home.
@LPyMP
It does not sound sappy to me at all. Sounds like you make a kind of "emotional knot" between colour and your babe and that is very comforting, maybe even like having a "piece" of your babe with you when not around.
@amiablePeace77
yep. Exactly this. This is how I see it or better yet feel it. Especially when the going gets tough and he's not around 😂
As an artist, I love color! My favorite is a rich, deep, blue! Almost like when your computer crashes kinda blue! Haha. I think my second favorite is yellow, like a rich, golden-y dandelion! Blue and gold is a tremendous color combination...
My home is very colorful, and I do have a lot of happy blue items and a bright yellow rug! It wasn't my choice, but it is serendipitous that the walls of my room are a very pale blue-- it's very calming.
I love color psychology! My favorite question to ask new people is what their favorite color is. It can say a lot about them, because statistically (and psychologically) speaking, certain personality traits follow certain beloved colors! Also, fun fact: if you wear a lot of blue, you'll seem to others more approachable, friendly, and confident-- so wear blue to job interviews!
@betterchoices
The color psychology is very interesting!
I also love yellow When I was a girl, I painted my bedroom a really lovely buttercream yellow. My bedroom faced East, so in the morning, the sun would dance into my room and reflect off of the walls. It was wonderful.
@OneTraveler
when I read your post I can almost see you in that beautiful room. Very nice description.
@OneTraveler What delightful imagery. That would make a beautiful painting
@betterchoices
Thank you for this great information. As an artist you are of course well familiar with colors and learned how to use them to express yourself, it's amazing how much colors can tell, even the different shades, like in blue. I love yellow too, to me it is the color of smiling
Hi Ami, surrounding myself with my favorite colors is super helpful in balancing my emotions. I love a lot of earthy colors- blues, light tan and gray, and shades of green. I can't put any reds, oranges or very bright colors in my house because it rubs me the wrong way and makes me feel unsettled. The same goes for the clothes that I wear.
@amiablePeace77
@OneTraveler
People react different to colors, some might see red as encouraging whilst others see it as aggressive. There is a basic guideline which I find very helpful but best is to find out which colors impact your mood best and use them.
@AmiablePeace77,
Thank you for sharing this post with all of us. Actually, I was not even realize how much any specific color does affect any of us what we paint these colors on the wall, and appreciate the color when we look it up on the wall in the morning and nighttime. Actually, I did not even realized how much I loved a lot of color since I never ever liked to deal with one single color in the house since my house does have different colors, which it causes me to smile every time I walk in the room to see how much it looks on the wall when I forget its different color when I walked from other room to different room. Its colors are pink blooms in peach color, Miracle rain in purple color, Sunshine in the medium zone of color, and Pea soup in the medium zone of lime and light dark green. Pea soup color does affect me to be in neutral and calm every time I work in that room a few days a week, and Sunshine room bright the mood of mine when I have a tough day out there until I come in the house. Red is my most favorite color, which I haven't decided what color of it to paint somewhere in the house someday. A big red awning with two white stripe in front of the house porch area is nice to be looking at when I come home from work or somewhere in the town.
@kindTurtle1458
that sounds like an awesome home, colors for different moods - a home you can truly feel comfortable.
Hi!
Just stopped to say hello
@scarletPear1945
Hey thanks and Hi too
Hello everyone
I am not feeling very well, I am down in my back and I cannot walk. Lots of pain when I stand and try to walk. Had an MRI yesterday no waiting on the results,
@scarletPear1945
oh no scarlet, very sorry that you are in so much pain. Sending you lots of love and healing vibes. I hope very much that everything will be much better soon and that the result will be okay. So glad that you still keep in contact despite pain 🧡
