Effect of Color on Mood:
- Colors of clothes: Choose warm colored clothes like red, yellow and orange to give you extra energy and relieve tiredness. Orange color creates optimism and at the same time acts to heal grief and disappointment. Yellow clothes and accessories encourage more laughter, joy and fun in your life. Warm color also makes your skin glow and work to attract other people, making you feel more vibrant and sociable.
- Happy Interiors: Color in the home or workplace is a big factor on productivity. Choose warm, vibrant shades for furnishings as part of your energizing strategy. Paint the kitchen a glowing yellow to add cheer and inspire your cooking experience. Solid red or orange walls in a room can be overpowering, but you can easily splash accents of these shades in a room to increase mental clarity. Light green shades also have a livening effect.
- Mood foods: The intensity of colors when it comes to natural food is also important. Bright colored fruits and vegetables is not only visually appetizing but is also contains more antioxidant and nutrient contents than it pale colored counterpart. Choose passionate foods - red strawberries, raspberries, grapes and cherries, blueberries, orange carrots, beets and pumpkins, yellow peppers and squashes. Organic foods, grown without additives, are best.
- The Color that raises your body temperature instantly: Need a help during winter season? To feel warm fast choose a festive red sweater or crimson bracelet. Just seeing a flash of the fiery shade can physically warm you from head to toe. That's because, when the eye glance at red, neurotransmitters signal the body to strengthen blood flow. And since circulation is the key to keeping warm, every part of you will stay warm.

They say that colors have varying energetic frequencies that affect us on mental, emotional and physical levels.

I love glue. It is very calming. Good hub!
It is really interesting to learn about the colors. Nice hub.
Great hub :) makes me want to redecorate my room!
going to home depot right now to buy some paint.
My whole house is this grey green. Because we live in Seattle and it is dark and rainy most of the year it can be gloomy. I am thinking of painting my kitchen and nook and hallways a lt. soft creamy yellow with a hint of orange. I was considering BM antique lace 922,devon cream or cookie dough 916. My thought was to get a lt.warm color that blends with the cabinets. I like an old world shabby vintage look.The kitchen and nook face SE and are open to the family room. Do you think that color would look nice in my kitchen? Any ideas for specific colors? I also would love a color idea for the family room. Something a bit warmer and bit darker as it has very high ceilings and faces east. The family room has a rock faced fireplace with lt. cool browns and the carpet is a soft cool taupe-beige. The wall of windows are wrapped in heavy white trim. I currently have lots of dark furniture (lt.taupe brown leather couch, dark wood piano ect. I am hoping to change the furniture eventually to med or lighter shades.
