How Colors Effect Our

Health Lives

 

 

           How colors effect our lives? One of the most interesting things to me is how colors effect our bodies and the way we think and feel. They effect us whether we are aware of them or not. Some colors effect us more then others but they all have their own individual properties that effect the people bodies and the way they feel.

 

All colors don't effect all people in the same ways, however, there have been extensive studies done that show how colors effect the majority of people in the same ways. As with all rules, there are exceptions. Another extremely important element to colors is not only the mains colors effect, but also how

combinations of colors effect people feel.

 

People believe you can even see colors in music, one thing is for sure though colors cause a physical and emotional reaction in each of us. Colors can cause headaches, sickness, relaxation, pleasure, tension, passion, peacefulness or irritation.

 

We see colors every moment of the day and so therefore we are physically and emotionally effected by them all the time.  In a study by Mark Terwogt and Jan Hoeksman it was quoted: “Links between colors and emotions can be explained on the basis of color preferences and emotion preferences.” People link colors they like with emotions they like as well as colors they dislike with emotions they dislike. Such as red with anger or it could be switched around and be red with love.

There are some experts specialize in Color Psychology, is a field of study devoted to analyzing the effect of color on human behavior and feeling. Color Psychology help us to understanding why certain colors effect us favorably while others bring about negative feelings. Practitioners of Color Psychology, sometimes called Color Consultants, Color Consultants believe that the colors used in the design of environment can have a significant impact on the emotions and performance of people within that environment.

There is Chromotherapy is also known as color therapy. We use color to balance energy wherever our bodies are lacking, be it physical, emotional, spiritual, or mental. Some of the tools used in color therapy are gemstones, candles, wands, prisms, colored fabrics, bath treatments, and colored eye wear.

 

On the other hand colors effect our physically life such as:

1- Eating in blue plates or eating blue food is less appetite than any other color (Eating in blue does make you eat less as it relaxes and slows you down. Eating in red and orange makes you eat faster and more).

2- Red is both an appetite stimulant and also increases your blood pressure because of that restaurants usually decorate with warm colors like red and orange, for their clients to eat more and fastest. So colors effect you weight gain or loss.

3- Work in yellow office which is very very soothing to work in.

4- Colors effect crime and violent behavior like Black-yellow is chosen by people who are in a mode to make poor, headstrong, rash, self-destructive choices... Black-red in some instances may provoke an aggressive, driven, high-energy, hostile behavior (ex some the paint of some American interrogation rooms and jail cells is the pinkish-orange color because this color makes person calms hyper-violent behavior, but the effective of this color backfires after awhile.
