Color is a form of energy. This energy affects us both physically and emotionally. From packaging in the products we buy to the color of suit and tie a lawyer wears, color is used all over in our world to influence us. Below is a list of colors, their meanings, and suggestions on using them.
Red It's known for being a "power color". In small amounts it can promote positive thinking. On the other hand, too much of a good thing can create irritability, nervousness, stress and even anger. Use a red appointment book to emphasize your importance in the world.
Orange Lifts your spirit. Creates vitality. Can be a great antidepressant. Try a glass of fresh orange juice in the morning to get a peppy start on the day.
Yellow The color of happiness. This color creates an optimistic attitude. Good for helping make decisions. Can't make up your mind? Use a yellow legal pad to list pros and cons.
Green Lowers stress and gives a feeling of comfort. Add some more plants to your home or office. If you are a serial plant murderer like myself, fake ones will work! ;o)
Blue Relaxes the body and opens the mind. Be a kid again sometime and lie in the grass and watch the sky.
Purple The color of royalty. Promotes self confidence. Also the color of passion. Buy yourself or the love in your life a bouquet of Freesia.
Don't go overboard. Sometimes too much of a good thing can have ill effects.
