And they\u2019re a good illustration of how color relates to our emotions.<\/p>\n<p>Actually, color evokes a physical effect on the human body. It can influence the pituitary gland, which helps regulate hormone production. Hormones can affect our moods, so it makes sense that color would, too. But it can also be used to change our moods. How can you use colors to change your mood? Well, clothing is the most obvious choice. What you wear not only helps you feel a certain way, but also can give a strong impression about you to others \u2013 especially people you\u2019ve never met.<\/p>\n<p>Below, we breakdown what each primary color makes you feel.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Red:<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2013 Root \u2013 grounding. \u00a0Associated with Love, Heat, evokes Anger, Intensity, Excitement. \u00a0Red is used to increase circulation and stimulate the body and mind.<\/li>\n<li><b>Orange:<\/b>\u00a0\u2013 Sexuality \u2013 Energetic, Warm color, evokes Enthusiasm and Excitement.\u00a0 Orange is used to draw attention, as in\u00a0traffic signs.<\/li>\n<li><b>Yellow:<\/b>\u00a0\u2013 Solar- Digestion. \u00a0Cheery, Warm, Core, Nature; but evokes Frustration and Anger. \u00a0Yellow increases metabolism.\u00a0 Highly visible, attention grabber.<\/li>\n<li><b>Green:<\/b>\u00a0\u2013 Heart \u2013 Emotions. \u00a0Nature, Health, Healing, Good Luck, Tranquility, Jealousy; has been known to increase the ability to read, used in\u00a0decorating\u00a0to relieve stress and calm, color of fertility.<\/li>\n<li><b>Blue:<\/b>\u00a0 Throat \u2013 Calm, Relaxed, Soothing; evokes Serenity, Sadness \u2013 Men Preferred, Research proven blue rooms make people more productive; least appetizing. \u00a0 Blue can ease the suffering of illness and pain, also lower the pulse and body temperature.<\/li>\n<li><b>Violet\/Purple:<\/b>\u00a0\u2013 Third-eye. \u00a0Symbol of Wealth and Royalty, Spirituality and Wisdom.\u00a0 Sometimes evokes: exotic, mysterious, above all.<\/li>\n<li><b>White:<\/b>\u00a0\u2013 Crown \u2013 Innocence, Spacious, Purity, Sterile, Focus, isolation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Black<\/strong> may make some people think of depression, but it doesn\u2019t have to. It\u2019s a very dramatic color; many artists wear nothing but black. It can denote mystery, something hidden \u2013 or maybe an introvert who\u2019s been around crowds too long could use it to \u201chide\u201d from people. In this sense, it can be a very classy or protecting color.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Gray<\/strong> is a common color for business suits, and in those instances it can indicate independence, self-control, and self-confidence. But some color specialists think it\u2019s also about ambiguity and indecision; after all, it isn\u2019t black, and it isn\u2019t white, either.<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You don\u2019t have to change everything about your appearance. Sometimes an accessory, like a tie or scarf, in a particular color will have the desired effect \u2013 without being too noticeable to others.\u00a0\u00a0 Many of my friends know I enjoy wearing scarf\u2019s and Pashmina and have a vast collection in different designs and colors. I enjoy the feeling of comfort and coziness, as it \u00a0enhances the look of my wardrobe.<\/p>\n<p>You may also want to make changes to your surroundings. This doesn\u2019t mean, though, that you have to replace all your wardrobe or furniture (unless you want to, of course!). Small changes like fresh flowers, decorations, pillows, or other throws placed on the furniture may just do the trick!<\/p>\n<p>May you spring forward with bright and sunny colors!<\/p>\n<p>To Your Health,<\/p>\n<p><em>Liza<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Did you know colors evoke certain emotions?\u00a0 Have you noticed when you feel gloomy if you wear something brighter, you\u2019ll feel a bit better and lights up your mood? \u201cHe saw red.\u201d \u201cI\u2019m feeling blue.\u201d \u201cShe was green with envy.\u201d How often have you heard these expressions?\u00a0They\u2019re actually fairly common.
