The Power of Color

The color green is known to promote peace, healing and balance. According to the dictates of Feng Shui, surrounding yourself with plenty of green will not only soothe your spirit, but also help strengthen and cleanse your physical self.


Put Some Green in Your Scene

Place fresh, healthy plants around your house, and sleep on green sheets to make all your happy, prosperous dreams come true! Healers often recommend visualizing yourself surrounded by a big ball of green light during times of anxiety and/or illness. To do this, close your eyes and inhale that green light into your whole being, "watching" as it flows into your mouth and circulates through your entire self. As you exhale this light, watch it carry away all the impurities and imbalances in your system as you say goodbye to these stressors for good!

Green is also a great color for kids' bedrooms because of its heavenly, calming energy. Likewise, anyone recovering from illness -- whether physical, mental or emotional -- would do well to include green in their bedroom decor.


Beyond Green

White is a terrific color to use in the kitchen, where the stove, toaster, microwave and coffee maker can contribute to high heat. White is considered a very cooling color, so you can't have too much of it where you cook. This is why early kitchen appliances were almost always white!

Finally, if you're single and looking for your soul mate, paint your bedroom pink or salmon. These colors have long been associated with love in Feng Shui, and they have a steady track record of helping many meet the person of their dreams.
