What Color Will Help You Today? Quiz

It has become common knowledge that color affects our mood and overall well-being. There are colors to energize or calm us, to help us think more clearly, or to feel more blissful and serene. There are even colors to help us eat less! So how can you put the magic of color to work for you?

First, take this fun quiz to check in with your mood. Then see which colors you can wear or bring into your home or office to balance and improve things. It‘s all right here:

i had my colors done years ago and i was/am a 'spring', so i bought clothes in warm/clear shades. if i wore light pink, i would act demure and shy, if i wore light blue, i would be more jock like, but if i wore yellow, i would be nicer to people and outgoing but in a balanced way!!! i bought 75 shirts in yellow and still wear it! i swear i have more friends than i did before!!!

The only red thing I like is (was) the Red Baron. Manfred was soooo handsome...
