What are the most relaxing colors?

Answer by  Alex8 (19)

Shades of blue are calm and relaxing colors. They make you feel as if you are at the ocean with the wind in your hair. Pastel colors are also very calming because they are a light color and delicate to the eyes and mind.

The most relaxing colors are those that are not considered bright and active colors. Colors like red, orange and yellow are not relaxing colors. One could actually say that the colors on the right half of the color spectrum are the most relaxing colors: blue, purple, green, magenta, and black.

Relaxing colors are reflective of what is found in nature. The colors of the beach: tans, blues, greens and and whites are good examples. Pale and muted colors are also very relaxing.

You can use light shades of most any color and that will leave a relaxing impression. Pick the color that you like and look for light and muted shades.
