Ever wonder why you love your favorite color so much? Well, the reason is that some colors make you happier than others. Bright yellow flowers brighten up a room, which lightens your spirit. A light blue on the wall illuminates your home. This in turn means that your mind, body and even mood feed off it in order to acquire a balance.
Color also acts as a source of energy. Gaze into the color, and soon the mind and muscles will relax while your head clears. There's no negative side affect surrounding yourself with what you are craving -- even if it's the color black.
Here are a few tips for colors that can help bring the essence of light into your life.
- Pink: Caring, compassion, peace, nurturing
- Green: Harmony, balance, calm, healing, empathy
- Purple: Stability, understanding, enlightenment, healing
- Blue: Serenity, wisdom, inspiration, communication, leadership intelligence
- Red: Body, physical intelligence

So treat yourself to that pink lipstick or purple sweater. Paint a room in your house yellow and fill it with your favorite colors and patterns. Bring the harmony you need into your office, home, body -- anywhere at all!
