Do Home Colours have an effect on you?
Scientists have studied the effect of colour on our mood, health, and way of thinking for many years. It is said that the effects of colour should be taken into consideration when working out what hues you need for each room of your house.
The colours around your home could keep you warm, calm you down, make you hungry or help your memory. Here are some examples:
> Red stimulates and warms the body, increases the heart rate, brain-wave activity and
respiration. It stimulates infants brains but aggravates high blood pressure, hypertension
and poor co-ordination.
> Pink’s tranquillising effect has gained its entrance to prisons, hospital rooms and drug
centres.
> Orange stimulates the appetite and reduces fatigue.
> Yellow is a memory stimulator. A touch of yellow in every room might just help in
remembering where you left the keys or eyeglasses. Yellow also raises blood pressure
and pulse rate, but not to the degree red does.
> Green reminds us of spring and, therefore, new beginnings. It brings feelings of calm
anticipation and hope and it has a soothing and relaxing effect on the body as well as the
mind. Still on that diet? Green is good as it could help control the anxiety associated
with the discipline of controlling yourself from impulsive overeating.
> Blue is another relaxing color. Pleasant dreams might be the end result of coloring the
bedroom in shades of blue. It has a calming effect on the body. It lowers blood
pressure, heart rate and respiration and in hot, humid weather, has a cooling effect.
Children prone to tantrums and aggressive behavior became calmer after being in a
room painted blue.
More likely than not, if a particular colour is preferred, it most likely is needed by the body.
The pleasant and appealing response the body gives is a sort of a thank you notice from the body to the brain.
