Colors Can Be Hostile or Friendly to Your Well Being

Colors are everywhere; they have the power to change your mind, your thought process. Color itself is a language, which can speak louder than words. Colors justify the personality and can have an astonishing effect on your emotions. Colors can bring a balance to your life.

Since colors can play so much with life states of an individual, it simply suggests to never undervalue the significance of colors. This gives us a very strong reason to understand colors and Vaastu shastra and Fengshui are the oldest guides to understand the role of colors in our every day life.

Vaastu Shastra is the traditional Indian system of architecture and FengShui is the Chinese philosophical system, both have a focus on the human’s well-being and harmonizing life with elements of nature. They both are ancient and sacred arts showing the connection between human and his residence. Vaastu is based on science while Fengshui is based on balancing the energies of geographical and customary concern. These both mention some guidelines related to colors for creating healthy and beautiful ambience in our homes and offices.

So, to bring some balance to our stressful lifestyles we can follow some color tips and see their positive effect on our lives.

·         Colors at your home can affect your mind

·         You spend a huge amount of time in a day in your home. Every room has specific purpose for use, similarly every color has a purpose and effect on your mood and thought process. Even if your home is not constructed according to the vastushastra or fengshui, coloring your rooms using vaastu and fengshui tips will help.

1.      Perfect balance of colors for bedroom: One of the best suitable colors for a bedroom is brown and its shades.You can see that mainly bedroom is used for sleeping, relaxation and physical pleasures. Hence, blue color is most suitable for relaxation and a pink shade symbolizes love, which are majorly masculine and feminine respectively. So give a blend of these colors with stability of brown color to create a balance between you and your better half.

2.      Colors can also affect your kid’s health: Avoid using dark blue and more of red colors in kid’s bedrooms they may lead to health issues and temperament issues respectively. For kids bedroom you can choose light green and light yellow shades of colors which will help them in concentrating in their studies.

3.      Create energetic ambience of your living room:Living room is the place where you entertain your guests and relatives; also your family spends time together. Keeping this in mind you should choose the colors which are welcoming and composed. Colors suitable for your living room are yellow, green, blue, beige and tan shades. You can use more of white color in your living room, but only white will not give a lively feel, so use tinges of some other light colors with white shades.
Apart from living rooms, light yellow color is apt for prayer or meditation areas in your home.

4.      Cooking food in kitchen can become more interesting:As kitchen is the place of ‘Fire’ element, a touch of red color must be present; it might be the dinner set of red shade or some red stripes here and there in kitchen. White, orange, yellow, rose pink, silver and light chocolate are the suitable colors to be used on kitchen walls and floor. You should avoid using much of dark colors in the kitchen but some of it will work.

5.      Have dinner with good vibes: Some people prefer having separate dining rooms rather than having it attached with the kitchen. Green, pink and blue colors are suitable for dining areas,these are somewhat similar to the kitchen shades. For separate dining rooms, you can color the walls different from the kitchen.

6.      Take a relaxing bath: Light colors are preferred for bathroom and toilets such as white, gray, mixture of white and black, shades of light blue, pink and lime green. Again, avoid using complete dark colors in bathroom and toilets. Recommended color as per vaastu for bathroom is white and blue shade walls or tiles.

7.      Welcome positivity from Entrance Area or Main Door: According to Vaastu and Fengshui, entrance area is the most important as every positive or negative energy enters your house from here. Depending upon the location of the door, the color may vary, but green color is a must to have in the entrance area. You can opt for any color which will look fine in the mishmash with green color, just keep in mind to have some green color in entrance or near main door. Good small green plants can also be the option which you can place near the main door or entrance.

8.      Create positive vibes in Garage, Staircase and Lobby area:White, cream, yellow and other light colors are suitable for garage, staircase and lobby area in the house as per the vastushastra. The use of dark colors might create a negative effect on children.

Here we can conclude that whatever colors you choose for your rooms, just avoid much darker color shades. Even if you have some preferred choice of dark color, use the above mentioned colors somewhere adding a bright shade to your room.

The use of above colors does not means that you end up painting your walls green, brown or blue or any other shade. The preferred color can be introduced in the room in a very subtle and graceful manner by the use of Custom Wallpaper and Wall Murals.

1. De-clutter, organize and add some art effects to create a serene environment
   Want to remove negativity or stressful vibes of your home? Spot the most undesirable places and clutter in your home such as filthy corners of bathroom or some unnoticed areas. De-clutter them and replace them with some greenery or artistic items. Interior of your home matters for peace and serenity.

To bring true colors in real life, you need to bring home some amazing subtle color textures and patterns. Every color has its symbolism and effect on your mind; you just have to find out some astonishing colors which suit your personality and soothe your mind, body and soul.

3. Creating a sanctum in your bedroom Incomplete or restless sleep is one of the main reasons for the stress and anxiety in your life.

4. Brightening your home with more lights Allow natural lights or sunlight to enter into your house removing all the dark spaces. Natural sunlight creates a good space of calm effect, also getting vitamin D to you. Sunlight is also beneficial to detoxify the atmosphere of your home.  When there is no scope of natural sunlight, you can use floor and table lamps. At night rather than using ceiling lights that cause mash up of light, these lamps create a calm low light without any harsh overhead lighting. It makes your home feel serene and creates a relaxing mood.
   
5. Devising a Hobby room/corner for relaxation. Are you able to exercise or devote time to some fun activity? If it’s a no, then you should definitely have a room or space in your house for some fun time or devote to your indoor hobbies. Whether it is reading, listening to music or some indoor game, just create a particular room or corner for it. Give some time to your hobby, leaving or shutting down your tech devices and gadgets. Here you can read your interests, play some fun games or spend time to listen some light soulful music which makes you feel refreshed. Where there is peace and meditation, there is neither stress nor suspicion. If not for any hobby, you can make a meditation room and spend some peaceful time either for religious or spiritual purpose for relaxation.
