Believing in the importance of colour in your life and making an impact with it is one of the easiest ways to take control on how you feel, look and react in the world around you.
Colours have been given the recognition they deserve in how they enhance and help to shift negative moods and well, put simply, make you feel how you want to feel.
Colours can heal.
When doing my research into this I stumbled across a really interesting article by Ruhi Seth on the colours of life.
Here are a few extracts which resonated most with us at Silk & Lawn, and got us thinking about how colour can embolden us, give us power, as well as altering our mood and wellbeing.
Which of these colours resonates most with you today?
Shop Yellow:
It is the colour of sun rays.
It relates to knowledge, happiness, enthusiasm and optimism.
It helps in decision-making as it provides clarity of thought and helps us focus.

It represents warmth, vitality, fun and positivity.
It helps those in depression as it motivates one to look at life in a positive way.
It offers new ideas and gives us freedom to be ourselves.

It is associated with power, energy, strength, passion and desire.
It is very helpful for people who are shy, with low energy levels and lack confidence.
Shop Green:

However, too much of green can make one judgmental and overly cautious!

It reduces stress and has a cooling and calming effect. It is the colour of the thought chakra and is great for communication.
