moody hues
THE COLOURS THAT
SURROUND YOU can
AFFECT HOW YOU FEEL
YELLOW
This joyful colour boosts
your wellbeing and
mood. However, use
it in small doses – too
much bright yellow can
make you feel anxious.
GREEN
Think forests and meadows, grass
and plants. This colour is ideal
for sunny rooms. Dark greens are
rich and comforting, while pale
shades are soft and soothing.

BLUE
Pale to medium blue, azure
and lavender are associated
with the ocean and open skies
– elements that create a sense
of peace and tranquility.
RED
Dark rose and burgundy
inspire passion, while
bright red can raise the
heartrate, revitalise you
and increase alertness
– so use it with care in
your bedroom!
