How Color Affects Stress

The color of your surroundings can both create stress and ease the stresses in life, often in ways that are so subtle that you are influenced subliminally. Although the study of bodily responses to color is still in its infancy, scientists in recent years have made some striking discoveries.                                                              

At the same time, many of the effects of color on our moods may be the result of social and psychological associations with a particular color. These associations vary from person to person and from culture to culture, making it difficult to choose color that will reduce stress in everyone. But many people able to moderate the stimulation of a room or of clothing by the colors they choose. Where you want a stimulating effect, emphasize reds and yellows; where you want a calming influence, choose blues and browns.                              

Some experts believe that, as with other forms of stimulation, you may become less responsive to colors with the same effects if you allow them to predominate. So surrounding yourself with a variety of colors is probably a good idea.

BLACK: The body may be less stimulated by black than by any other colors.

BLUE: Blue may elevate mood.

BROWN: Brown may be calming.

GREEN: Green color may actually increase stress.

PINK: Pink color may have such tranquillizing effects as lowering blood pressure, pulse rate and anxiety levels.

RED: Research confirms that red is an arousing, stimulating color.

YELLOW: Yellow may reduce boredom.
