How To Use Colour to Make You Feel Better

A rainbow is a grade of colours such as, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. Rainbows appear in the sky opposite the sun, as a result of the refractive dispersion of sunlight in rain or mist. These colours of the rainbow can affect our moods, either positively or negatively. Some colours may uplift your spirits and make you feel great, whereas other colours may make you feel uncomfortable. Colours are a reflection of our inner state of being and are showcased in the clothing and surroundings that we choose for ourselves. Take charge of your life, and feel better, by incorporating colour to impact your state of being.

I have used colour in my bedroom, clothing, and jewellery to impact my health and well being. Here are some colour suggestions:

Pink is a calm tranquil colour. Small splashes of pink in the home, can enhance your romance corner. Pink rose quartz is also great to wear as jewellery or to to place a piece of pink rose quartz in your home to reve up your love life.

Yellow is a wonderful colour to lift your spirit if you are feeling down and depressed. Give yellow roses as a sign of friendship and love for another.

Blue is a relaxing colour that can support a calm environment. It is a cooling colour that is connected to the third eye chakra and the art of communication. Paint a room blue, it can remind someone they are close to the sea.

Violet is an excellent colour that is quite spiritual. It is great to paint a prayer/exercise room in violet. It is a rejuvenating colour.

White is a grounding colour that helps to cleanse both the mind and spirit. If you notice, leaders of many faiths wear white. Wear white clothing when you meditate and pray.

Some of the changes I have made in my life with colour include placing pink rose quartz in my bedroom, painting my office and kitchen yellow, painting my bedroom violet and wearing a blue sapphire pendant. The impact on my life has been happiness, a calming effect, strength and an inner peace within. This has led to an increased state of health and wellness.

Use your intuition to decide what colours resonate best with your life and begin to make changes in your wardrobe and your home environment. Use colour as a tool to aid your healing journey. The benefits will last a lifetime!
