Instead of choosing tame shades, step aside and let colors gain ground and you will not only see, but also feel the difference. You will learn that colors affect and express our everyday lives, even when we are too busy to notice their effects. They have such strong personalities, influencing our state of mind and spirit in so many wonderful ways: they are energetic and cheerful, shiny and optimistic, safe and calming, relaxing and meditative, sensual and mysterious, luxurious and vivid and bearers of meanings that stimulate our subconscious.
