Surprising Effect of Colors on Mood

Research shows that you can change your mood by the colors you surround yourself with. Even colors of small objects like a hand bad, pen, nail polish or tie can help you in your mood upliftment, says Psychologist Shivani Misri Sadhoo. 
Though every individual and culture has different experiences with color and there are some variability of association; still some universal association of colors exist that are applicable to everyone like:

  • Green color enhances the creative thinking, so a green colour hand bag, nail polish or t-shirt can enhance a person's mood if he/she is associated with creative profession.
  • Red is the most emotionally intense color, it is the color of love. Red clothing makes the wearer appear heavier and get notices but on other hand it is an extreme color, red clothing might not help people in negotiations or confrontations. But it definitively uplift your mood if your in love.  
  • Yellow, precisely a sunny yellow is an attention grabbing color and will help you feel happy if you want to get noticed. It is considered an optimistic color however over use of yellow is difficult for the eyes to take in, so it can be overpowering if overused. 
  • Blue  is the most popular color in the world. Its the colour of sky and ocean and is related to peace and tranquility and symbolizes with loyalty. 
  • White color symbolizes innocence and purity, it reflects light, it neutral and goes with everything. If you can maintain white color dress or accessories then white is good color in summers.
