It is undeniable colors affect us. They evoke emotions that may even be a catalyst to improve our well-being.

However, it is important to remember that reactions to colors are highly subjective. We all associate various meanings to these shades. We experience them differently due to our distinct personal preferences, individual tastes, and cultural influences.

Let colors touch you and instill in you ideas to believe. It is the time for some good vibes through a space – your sanctuary – to relax in after a long day.

Here are some ideas for your living spaces that may boost your mood:

1. Whites and Grays.

There is comfort and relief in the uncomplicated. The simplicity of whites and grays soothes the mind and refreshes the soul. Challenge yourself not only rearrange to, but also to dispose of unnecessary items. A clear disposition leads us to feeling positive. Think white and gray are too plain and basic? Maintain a clean and sophisticated look by exploring subtle textures and light-colored natural materials.

2. Rose Colors.

Pink is often linked with love and kindness. It is warm and sweet. Romance is everywhere. Imagine this: A quiet afternoon with your favorite strawberry ice cream, and your feet are on this plush rug while surrounded by soft, fluffy pillows. Being enveloped in the softness of rose colors is also healing.

3. Cool Breeze.

While “feeling blue” has a negative connotation, there are good emotions associated with the color blue. It is the sky and the calm, open sea. It is serenity. Use soft blues in your room to capture that feeling of peace and hope. Better yet, draw back the curtains. Look up. Breathe in. Release your anxiety.

4. Tropic Greens.

Feeling a bit off-center? Green has the effect of grounding you when you feel anxious and stressed. Am ideal way to introduce the concept in your space is by placing a couple of indoor plants by the windows. Reconnect with nature and relieve tension within the confines of your room. Some low-maintenance plants include palmera (Areca palm), spider plant, snake plant, golden pothos, and aloe vera.

5. Sunlight.

Warm colors such as yellow, orange, and red are associated with optimism and stimulating energy. Make your room instantly cheerier by getting rid of that bluish fluorescent ceiling light. Replace it with a table or floor lamp with warm white light. Complete the look with nice fresh flowers and some lacy, sheer curtains for a dramatic morning light or a golden hour in the afternoon. Even a little bit of sunlight can instantly lift your mood. Maximize the amount of natural light coming in.

6. Polychromatic.

The best color for happiness is the rainbow. It is a celebration of the end of the storm, reminding us that all will soon be brighter and better. Go wild! Indulge in intense printed textiles and bold textures. Express your passion through colors, patterns, and mismatched furniture pieces. What is more joyful than seeing the rainbow?
