human reaction to colour

 

Human reaction to colour.
Written by Abbie Stokes.

Colour has been known to have some of the most powerful effects on mind and body. Hence, colour has the efficient modes of nature to connect with the subconscious core.

Colours have an effect on the energetic system of the body.

Colours act like gems; they increase the aura of the astral body.

The bodies energy centres on transformations called chakras, each chakra governs particular organs of the body, specific emotions and psychological aspects of the mind.

 

The 'rainbow theory' is a simple concept based on the science of colour. People need to continuously absorb different colour energies to maintain a sense of well-being. So by understanding how colours affect us, we will achieve harmony in our everyday life. The colour energy concept is based in the fact that colours are visible light rays, each having a different frequency, which affect a persons mood, energy level, and well-being. By utilizing the seven colours of the rainbow, one can promote the balance of our mind, body and soul.

The effect of colour energy can be felt in everyday life. Having a painting to look at can change the way one is feeling at the present moment, just like a lack of sunshine, for example. On a rainy day people feel more depressed and tired; but when the sun shines everyone is happier and more energetic. This is how Trace's paintings bring happiness and sunshine to a viewer.

Each colour in the rainbow is connected to various areas of the body and will affect us differently, emotionally, physically and mentally. By learning how each colour influences us, Trace can effectively use colour as a tool to give the viewer an extra boost of energy when needed.
