9 Fun Colour Tips: Blue

As a Colour Therapist I know how colour can affect every aspect of our lives on a conscious and subconscious level. Yet most people don’t think about the effects of colour and barely seem aware of the power of colours at all.

So everyone now and then I like to profile a single colour and just give a little information and a few tips on it. Today I thought I’d do Blue.

Although I have never understood why, Blue is the most preferred colour in the world, people everywhere in all cultures tend to choose this as their favourite colour. Maybe that is because it’s the colour of both the sea and the sky and therefore can represent calm and turbulence at the same time.

Below I’ve listed 9 fun facts about the colour Blue:

1. It is associated with peace and tranquillity

2. It represents mental capacity, balance and reason

3. It relates to self-expression and creativity

4. It represents communication in all its creative forms, such as singing, playing music, writing and performing

5. It is the colour of the Throat Chakra – where you express who you are

6. It has a calming effect on the nervous system.

7. It is associated with patience, trust and faith

8. If your favourite colour is Blue your likely to be logical, rational and independent

9. If you find yourself consistently choosing blue (eg, clothes, food, décor) you have a real need for serenity, calm and self-expression.

You can utilise the list above to decide how you would like to use blue in your life. Add it to your wardrobe or décor or eat more blue foods. Bring calmness, self-expression, creativity and mental balance into your life in a powerful way and simply enjoy the results.
