The first step in this transformative journey is understanding the significance of colors in influencing our emotions and energy levels.
Soft and neutral hues like light blues, greens, and warm beiges evoke a sense of calmness and relaxation, ideal for bedrooms.
In Zen philosophy, using gold colors in moderation can make a balanced and calming environment.
For those seeking energy, bold and vibrant colors like reds, yellows, and oranges can inject vitality into a room, but avoid overwhelming the senses.
White is excellent for spaces requiring mental focus, such as home offices or study areas. To avoid a sterile atmosphere, consider complementing white with touches of other colors.
Earth tones, such as browns, deep greens, and terracottas, connect us with nature and provide stability, well-suited for meditation spaces like living room.
Incorporating Yin and Yang principles, striking a perfect balance between dark and light colors, brings a harmonious interplay of energies to your home. The combination of contrasting colors creates a dynamic yet balanced space.
