What are Your Colors of Joy?
When we are surrounded by the colors we love, we feel energized, uplifted and joyful! And the beauty is —the colors that bring you joy are unique to you!
They are a beautiful tapestry of your experiences, your skin and hair tones (and therefore what looks good on you), your environment, your memories, and, of course, are influenced by the color combinations surrounding you.
Have you ever felt an emotional response to color? Perhaps you don’t know why you react the way you do, but when you’re surrounded by colors you love—you feel uplifted, calm, drawn in to the work of art, or the room!
Of course, the opposite can be true too: surrounded by colors that don’t work for you, and you might feel overwhelmed and chaotic, or bored and listless.
This emotional response to color… is the Color Goddess in you!
She’s powerful (especially to us Color-Lovers), and is oh so unique.
The more I work with color, the more I realize it’s the combination of colors that draw us in, even more so than the individual colors themselves.
Understanding WHY you feel the way you do about color is the key in unlocking the beautiful Color Goddess inside you!
If you haven’t already done so, take my Color Goddess Quiz (it’s fun and fast) to find out which Color Goddess you have inside you:
P.S. If you HAVE already taken the quiz, and found yourself torn between different answers, then this means you have more than one Color Goddess inside you! So… I invite you to take it again and see what happens!
