Choosing the Right Colors in your Painting can help with depression.

Did you know depression can also be seen as :

1.       Lack of interest in activities
2.       Feeling tired or exhausted without doing any strenuous activity
3.       Changing Appetite and eating preferences
4.       Sleeping too much or having trouble getting a good night sleep
5.       Sitting in a dull, dim room

Art therapy says that painting and choosing the right colors can change a lot about your mood but also your overview on life and scenarios.

When a person is happy, they tend to observe and choose bright colors, while people feeling sad or dull gravitate towards darker more low-spectrum shades.

The association between colors and moods is so strong, that when reversed; that is when exposing a person to certain colors, we can inflict certain emotions.

Like using ocean blue for peace and light green for calm.

When choosing a Painting, the right colors and using our own motor skills, builds a strong association with the color and we see a shift in the mood and perspective almost instantly.
