IGNITE YOUR CREATIVE SPARK
Kickstart your creativity with colour
Have you noticed that when life gets difficult, colour is one of the first things to go? Start experimenting with colour for a low stakes way to shift your energetic state
Biologically, a sharp stress or fright can literally drain the colour from your cheeks. But the kind of slow burn stress that simmers beneath the surface can slowly turn your attention to all things grey, beige, and dull.
I once saw an art-house film where a 30-something woman lived the epitome of a grey life. When told she only had months to live, she injected her home with vibrant colour and set about living a bright, sparkling life. Later, the doctor told her that her illness had miraculously gone — it couldn’t survive the new environment she’d created for herself. And she was enraged, as it meant she no longer had permission to live her new, bold life.
