Ever since a man child had the opportunity to experience and observe variety of colours, scattered around him-his quest for searching for the meaning of them started. Colors are part and parcel of our day to day lives, silently manipulating our thought process, decision makings and emotional stability. Those who are involved in studying the psychology of a man, always vouched for special attention towards choosing the proper color scheme in designing important places like corporate offices, hospitals, schools and so on. I believe this is highly impactful and for rightful reasons. This essay will illustrate the reasons behind my stand and the extensity of the effect of colors on our health and ability to work. Colors have always played a significant role in determining the composure of a person and thus controls the situation around him. this is true in both animals and humans as we see both of them react to the red aggressively. At the same time, blue stands for perseverance and achieving something through pain. Hence we decorate our hospitals with a color series, where blue is prominent.

Scientists, observed subjects though MRI, exposing them to different colors, as well as pictures, and saw different sections of brains received more blood circulation; meaning more activity was occurring, being exposed to certain colors. Later, the studied the implications in sports, where they asked certain players to wear certain colors. And surprisingly enough, they saw changes in the reactions of fielders of opposite team and even in teammates. For instance, when a goalkeeper wore the color red, his opponents were more hesitant to pass the ball to the goal-post, owing to the fact that it creates fear in mind, generated at the thought of aggressiveness. Even peoples general well being was related to the colors around him. For example, people suffering from depression are asked to paint their houses in bright colors like orange, peach, neon pink, so that the ambiance has the capability to brighten their moods In conclusion, colors have altered our mental health, as well as physical well being silently throughout centuries. however, since the twentieth century man has become more and more aware of his surrounding colors, and how they affect everything else.
