    I’ve always loved wearing bright colours. They make me feel more positive and, as a more mature woman, I swear they brighten my skin and make me look more alive too!

    I’m the same at home. Give me a vase overflowing with colourful fresh flowers and it instantly lifts the room, and my mood.

    So I really enjoyed reading this article from Dr. Mercola about the relationship between colour and joy.

    Research suggests that bright, vivid colours can give our mood a lift. But what I found especially interesting is how personal our response to colour can be. A colour can make us happy because it reminds us of a favourite place, a wonderful memory or a person we love.

    It’s a lovely reminder that wellbeing can be influenced by the little things around us too — even something as simple as the colours we wear or bring into our homes.

    And apparently my love of fresh flowers may have something going for it too. Some research suggests that having flowers around us may also have a positive effect on how we feel.

    So I’m definitely not swapping my bright clothes for beige anytime soon. 😂

    What about you? Is there a colour that instantly lifts your mood, or something you keep in your home simply because it makes you happy?
