Healing power of colors
Our homes are a kaleidoscope of color. It seems every generation likes to break the rules of the previous decade and experiment with new colors. Color choices are a response to social and cultural, as well as economic factors.
The truth is that color has real effects on us. In fact, many people are strong believers in the psychology and healing powers of color.
It's time to choose a color palette for your home that will set the mood you most desire.
Are you looking to heal your body? The ancients believed that red hues stimulated the body and helped increase circulation. Indigo could help those nagging skin problems, they said. Blue can be used to treat pain. Orange was thought to help increase energy and yellow to purify the body.
Do you want your rooms to be warm and intimate? Warm colors such as red, yellow, and orange, while making some rooms appear smaller, do wonders for inspiring cozy evenings on the couch with a book.
If you're a little more laid back and want to have restful tones, then consider blues, greens, and purples. "Pale, serene greens slip quietly into a living room, bedroom, or reading room, hushing it with a whisper. Medium greens connect to nature, grounding and freshening the spirits of a home office, family room, or spa. Deep greens comfort a library, bedroom, or sitting room."
Color can inspire all sorts of moods. Let your home help you create cheer, inspiration, or intimacy.
