​The magic of color therapy, or How to choose the color of bed linen without causing harm

The bedroom should be a place where you can escape from the stress of everyday life. Rest and recovery are very important, and psychological research has proven that colors do influence this process. Meanwhile, the color of bedding, sheets, duvet covers and pillowcases also have a similar impact.

There are some colors and color ratios that are considered an eye irritant. They can cause headaches and essentially damage our vision. But there are other colors and color combinations that have a beneficial effect and are actually very calming.

White

White is the color of purity, peace, tranquility. It is neutral, and therefore suitable for absolutely everyone. Snow-white kpb will not cause irritation and will not get boring, even after years. White bed linen will enhance the energy charge of the owners, calm them down and help them fall asleep faster.

What bedding color is best for sleeping?

Many people do not think at all about the colors of bed linen, because it is hidden from prying eyes by blankets and bedspreads. The choice of tone for a given textile depends on what principle people follow when purchasing it:

• under the influence of “color taste”;
• on the seller's recommendation;
• so that it is not easily soiled;
• choosing from textile novelties;
• choosing based on the effect of color on sleep and general condition.

Categories of personal preferences

• “Color tastes” in the choice of clothing or accessories smoothly flow into the choice of textiles. This is typical for the first category of people.

However, if, when choosing the first one, a person thinks about whether this solution will suit the shade of his skin and eyes, will make him look slimmer, or, on the contrary, will add a couple of extra pounds, in the case of underwear the choice is much wider and safer. So people are collecting sets with flower meadows, aggressive tigers and outer space.

• The next category cannot make a choice on their own and completely relies on the advice of friends or the seller.

These people cannot choose just one set from the variety, or, on the contrary, they are so passive that any color will suit them.

• Next come the practical people. For this category, the main rule is that any item should not be a brand and not attract much attention.

Why do laundry every week if the bedding is still clean?! A small number of washes will have a beneficial effect on the condition of the item - it will not fade and wear out so quickly. These people usually choose "middle" undertones. The taboo for them is too light (white, milky, beige, light blue), as well as too dark (black, dark blue, emerald). They do not tolerate designs on textiles that attract attention, as well as embroidery and appliqués.

Manufacturers almost every season release collections with current prints. Fans of such “textile innovations” cannot ignore fashionable duvet covers with 3D patterns, aggressive leopard prints and gardens of Eden. Can this be called a disease? Probably not, you just can’t have too much bed linen!

• The last category refers to the most “thinking” and advanced.

They are characterized by the creation of a unified style of the room, thinking through the smallest details, not even noticeable to the eyes of an outsider. These people love harmony in everything and try not to disturb it. They carefully select elements and colors based on the teachings of Feng Shui and the effect of shade on state and mood. This category will never choose bedding in an “acid” color with an aggressive pattern.

Blue

Blue bed linen will perfectly emphasize the nobility and sophistication of the bedroom interior. When you look at the color blue, your mind and body completely relax, so when you find yourself in your own bedroom, you will quickly find peace of mind.

Just about color in a person's life

Different colors of the world around us begin to influence us from birth. Each color gives a specific effect. For example. As soon as a boy is born, parents select blue clothes for him, and when girls are born, pink clothes. When children start to grow up, parents buy a lot of toys in different colors. Please note that clothes for children are also colorful and bright. This is necessary so that a person learns to identify colors from childhood. A newborn baby is able to recognize only two colors: black and white. Subsequently, you can observe which color the child likes best. If you know the whole psychology of color, then you can develop the child’s talents inherent in nature itself.

For example, if a child likes the color brown and often plays with brown toys, this could mean the following. The child is most likely uncommunicative and may withdraw into himself. There are signs of selfishness and the possibility of falling into depression. The child is also smart and able to absorb a large amount of information. This topic is huge and is the science that studies color and its influence on humans.

The topic of the article is about the color of bed linen, so let’s consider

Floral print

Flowers are a symbol of nature, so their influence on humans cannot be negative. The only thing you need to pay attention to is what type of plant is depicted . If you use a bright floral print with large elements, then its impact will be greater than with small and faded inflorescences. An excellent option is microfiber PCB.

The number of colors also matters. The inflorescences will carry much more energy than the “lonely” varieties. The impact is also determined by the flowers themselves, which are depicted on the sheet or pillow.

Properties and influence of bed linen color on humans

Regardless of whether a person is a skeptic or, on the contrary, blindly believes every statement, almost everyone agrees with the influence of shade on a person’s condition. Books are written and dissertations are defended on this issue.

The ancient teaching of Feng Shui divides all colors into two classes:

• Yin;
• Yan.

The first category includes shades under the influence of which a person relaxes, calms down, they endow him with healing properties and set him up for a wave of peace.

• Yin Colors: Blue;
• Blue;
• Violet;
• Green;
• White.

These are cool shades that do not give room to recklessness and pacify passions. Colors are associated with the water element. Although the presence of “living” water (aquariums, paintings with water) in the bedroom is not desirable, the presence of such flowers can be present in moderate quantities. The Togas company offers PB in any color, even the most unusual.

• Yang Colors: Yellow;
• Orange;
• Brown;
• Beige;
• Red.

All these tones belong to warm options. They create coziness and comfort, giving a feeling of warmth and security. These colors will help restore the lost passion of the spouses and raise the relationship to a new unknown level. However, especially impulsive people should be careful with some of them; an excessive amount can lead to unnecessary aggression.

What color bedding is best? Let's talk about the influence of some shades of bedding in more detail.

White

A snow-white bed is a classic. Previously, when the textile industry was not yet so developed and the most original designs were soft stripes or small flowers along the edges, white sheets and duvet covers filled Soviet markets. This time has long passed, but some people still have an attachment to the white background. How does it affect a person?

White color means purity and innocence, it is also a symbol of perfection . In the teachings of Feng Shui, it correlates with the energy of metal, which is always directed inward. Thanks to this, a person gains inner stability . This color protects the mind from excessive aggressiveness and bad thoughts. Sleeping on such a set will promote relaxation and good sleep.

Purple bed linen

Purple, depending on the main tone, can be either cold or warm - this is an ambiguous type. Its effect manifests itself differently on different people. This shade is the last in the spectrum and signifies completeness and healing . However, since it is located on the edge, it can cause a feeling of anxiety and danger.

Particularly impressionable people sleeping on a purple pillow and sheet may suffer from sudden panic and nightmares . Although this color does not put pressure on the psyche, one cannot say unequivocally about its positive impact.

However, if you like to dream and philosophize, then this color will give you the opportunity to immerse yourself in your inner world and find harmony . Bedding with such a background will give you a feeling of peace after a hard day at work and set you up for the right “sleepy” wave. Jacquard linen of this color looks great and decorates the bedroom interior.

Blue

The blue background on the pillows is the best choice if you want to relax and calm down. It will normalize blood pressure and give you sound sleep. In addition, in the summer heat, the blue tint will give a drop of coolness .

This background helps to open internal channels and acquire new qualities. He will be able to awaken hidden abilities and push him to new achievements . However, do not forget that, first of all, this is a cold shade. If you have an unstable family relationship, it is better to avoid textiles of this color on the marital bed.

The middle tone will add a touch of playfulness.

Too dark a chocolate shade can lead to gloomy negative thoughts . In general, dark colors are very insidious. Although black is associated with money in Feng Shui, excessive use of it can lead to depression and a feeling of doom. It is better to combine dark shades with gold and silver elements and use them on certain occasions rather than every day.

Red means passion and fire. If your relationship has become cold and is gradually cracking, bring some bright colors into your life. Red is aggressive and dominant. Not recommended for daily use. This is a special color for a specific occasion . He pushes you to new achievements .

Red is a Yang color. They charge and nourish the body with positive energy . But you need to be careful with this background. If you are an impulsive person , in whose soul passions are always raging, it is better to refrain from choosing this shade . It will make you aggressive and even more unrestrained.

Among the reds, only pink is recommended for sleeping textiles, as a neutral and acceptable tone for use.

The blue palette, especially the color blue, is considered a favorite among color therapists. It is often used for various mental disorders, aggression and excitability.

Among the black tones, light gray is distinguished. It blurs the lines between emotions, neutralizes both positive and negative outbursts, which is necessary for proper rest.

Tips for choosing bedding

Each family should have several sets of linen so that they can be changed in a timely manner without neglecting the resting place; it should always be clean and tidy. Before purchasing, be sure to evaluate the feel of the underwear on your skin. Only after determining the softest and most comfortable option should you look for a color that is pleasing to the eye.

It is also recommended to pay attention to the patterns and appliqués that often decorate the sheets. Large ornaments usually promote manifestations of passion, but interfere with a normal night's rest. For complete relaxation, it is better to choose animalistic motifs, nature or geometric abstract shapes. The best choice would be plain bed linen or a cozy set with small flowers.

Feng Shui - ancient wisdom and its recommendations

Feng Shui pays attention not so much to color, but to patterns, prints and combinations of different tones. The recommendations sound like this:

• No more than two colors can be used in sleep textiles, ideally one;
• If you want decor, it should be lace in a different palette, but expensive and of high quality;
• Only specific patterns are allowed - light, without corners. They can be blue or black, and the main color should always be light;
• The main colors are yellow, sand, white, cream, pink and other similar shades;
• It is strictly forbidden to use black and red. These colors destroy consciousness and negatively affect energy flows.
