ORANGE

Orange has such an unmistakable warmth and vitaility. Even as I write I feel it softening my emotions, all owing me to feel liberated and happy. It activates parts of the left brain and shines a spotlight on our creative impulses, nourishing them and providing us with the energy we need to initiate and develop or gifts.  

Orange gives us the self confidence and enthusiasm to live our lives with joyful independence. One of the most surprising effects of orange its how it stimulates the production of a hormone called Gastrin in our gut. This stimulates our appetite. It’s a great colour to have present in restaurants and other eating establishments of course! Studies show that the colour orange  can create other physical effects such as a heightened sense of activity, increased socialisation, boost in aspiration, stimulated mental activity, increased oxygen supply to the brain, increased contentment, and enhanced assurance. Orange also helps aid decision making, and enhances happiness, confidence, and understanding. Orange is of course a secondary colour mixed from red and yellow pigments to create many shades. It’s warmth and aliveness is without question.
