Does your bedroom colour affect your sleep?

Does your bedroom colour affect your sleep

Several research studies in psychology have proved that there is a connection between colour and sleep. Your bedroom colour may affect sleep through emotional changes. Your energy and mood are both influenced by the colours you are surrounded with.

Optimizing your sleep environment by painting your bedroom a relaxing colour could be one helpful step in getting a good night’s rest.

Some of the best sleep colours include

  1. Blue –

Blue may promote relaxation due to its association with the tranquillity of a clear sky or a calm body of water. Studies of colour and language have found that blue is strongly linked to words such as “relaxed,” “safe,” “satisfied,” and “secure.” Some research even suggests that the colour blue can reduce heart rate and blood pressure.

Remember that darker shades of blue can sometimes evoke negative feelings

such as sadness, loneliness, and defeat. This shows how acolourr’s brightness or darkness can change a person’s emotional response to the colour.

  1. Green –

Green is considered a cool colour due to its short wavelength. People report that green has a relaxing effect and evokes feelings of comfort, peace, spaciousness, hope, and happiness.

Green may promote relaxation due to its association with nature and plants.

  1. White –

Technically, white is not a color, but is actually the combination of all colors across the full visible light spectrum. White may be a good choice for a bedroom due to its association with positive words such as “peace,” “secure,” “safe,” and “relaxed.”

White rooms may help with sleep because they stimulate the brain less than colourful rooms do

White rooms could potentially help people clear their minds before sleep.
