YELLOW

THE COLOR OF HAPPINESS & OPTIMISM

Are you feeling down? Do you need to increase your energy? Is learning tough for you at times? The color YELLOW is the color of happiness and optimism. The color yellow stimulates the left side of the brain, which promotes logical thinking. It encourages us to hone in and make informed decisions. When you feel your grip on reality slipping, yellow reminds us that our perceptions are warped. 

The best of yellow is its ability to bolster your self-assurance. This sunny tone is upbeat, cheerful and inherently optimistic. Seeing the color yellow has the incredible ability to turn any frown upside down. We should all aspire to be a fraction of the color yellow to encourage ourselves and others. 

Of all the yellow shades, lemon yellow is my favorite! I utilize its pure, clear tones when I want clarity and the ability to step into my own power. Letting my 'light' shine so to speak. 

DESIGN YOUR SPACE WITH THE COLOR YELLOW

Emotions and the color yellow do not go hand in hand. When anxieties and fears become all-consuming, yellow provides peace of mind. It relates strongly to cognizance and awareness, meaning it has no room for sappy or exaggerated feelings. It allows us to unburden ourselves and live freely. Enabling us to make sound decisions, yellow breathes simplicity into complex situations. 

When you are at a crossroads in your life, seek guidance from the color yellow. As a result, you will be able to bid farewell to your misgivings.

YELLOW INSPIRES CLARITY OF THOUGHT & SHARPENS OUR CONCENTRATION

The hallmark of yellow is its beaming presence that illuminates essence. It is associated with the more pleasant things in life, kindling joy and happiness. It inspires positivity with effortless innocence. The color yellow resonates deeply with children and is the reason why many toys are predominately yellow. 

Use yellow when you are having a tough time making a hard decision to provide you with clarity of thought. It stimulates the nervous system and sharpens memory & concentration.
