Colors
really do have an impact on how we behave, feel, even respond.
Much of this is a result of automatic behavioral responses that
we aquire over our lifetime resulting from our background, culture,
etc. When you are picking out colors for decorating, remember
that your choice of colors will affect how comfortable you will
be in your surroundings and the atmosphere that is created. After
doing a little research on what experts say about color effecting
your mood, this is what I came up with. These results are a combination
of several different opinions and/or studies.
