The Power of Color

I love color. It is often taken for granted, but so very much a part of our life. Color surrounds and envelopes us in beauty. Nature gives us a colorful array:

the brilliant yellow daffodils and pastel blossoms of spring,

the brilliant oranges, reds, and yellows of fall,

the white pristine snow of winter,

a lively display of summer flowers,

and soft glow of the summer sunset against your favorite beach.

Color also sends us messages:

the red stop sign and yellow school bus, for example.

Color affects our moods and speaks about our personality: a blue day, yellow belly coward, green with envy.

I have found the exploration of color fascinating; especially waking up to the awareness of how it impacts your life and how to use it to enhance your energy. Do you know that the colors you wear tell details about yourself?

Do you know that your zodiac sign is associated with a birth color? Do you know that even your birth date also has a unique color related to it?

Color can affect our moods as well.

Blue is calming.

Red makes us tense.

I intend to share lots more how to harness the power of color – techniques and ideas of how you can use color to feel better, have more energy, focus, handle stress, sleep better, manage pain, and so much more.

Color is all around us everywhere. This wonderful planet does not contain all the beautiful colors of the rainbow without reason. Nature and its colors are not simply here by chance; everything in nature is here for a purpose. Color is no exception. The capacity for health, happiness, and well-being is within all of us – learn how to use color to live to your fullest potential.
