In
our life it is really important to consider which colours appear in our
surroundings, including our home, workplace, hospitals, schools and even the stores
where we do our shopping.
Colour psychology is a
science, which is concerned with the effects of colour on mood, emotion,
behaviour. Colour psychology validates the theories
that individual colours are responsible for specific areas of our bodies. Consequently
colour can consumedly affect the quality of our life.
Using
colour has a specifically great importance in case of a hyperactive child or
adult. Colour is actually a sensation that our brain registers, and each colour
causes different reactions in our brain.
The colour green is the colour of
balance, harmony and growth. It is able to create balance between the heart and
the emotions. Green colour has many positive characteristics, as it is very
healing and soothing, which also can be used to create a relaxing area in any
part of the home. It is an emotionally positive colour with an ability to restore
us back to a sense of well-being what is more it revitalizes us when we are
physically, mentally or emotionally exhausted.

The intention of using green for a hyperactive child would be to achieve a relaxing zone which revitalizes the senses and
emotions of the child as mentioned earlier. Subsequently in this instance,
strong, bright shades may not be the most successful choices. Nevertheless
soft, light shades are absolutely applicable and appropriate for a hyperactive
child’s bedroom. In my point of view a combination of natural green shades and
neutrals can create and absolutely soothing and restful area which gives us the
sense of peace. I think that is exactly what a hyperactive person needs.
