Abstract
Color is all around us from the time we were born and it is affecting our everyday life
in many ways. By becoming aware of the power of color and its effects on our
emotions, we can learn how to make positive changes in our lives. The color of your
cloths reflects your personality, and influences your mood, it affects your home, your
workplace, also our schools and hospitals. Color can be used in healing to bring
balance and harmony within the psyche and the body. Depending what color we choose
for healing, the invisible vibration of color can relax or stimulate us. In this study we
are going to focuses on the relation between colors from the psychological point of
view and dressing for health.
