Colours really do shift our energy

I did it yesterday everyone. I walked out of my house with the brightest ensemble I have worn in a while. And everywhere I turned people told me I looked beautiful! And you know what I felt beautiful. My husband told me I was stunning. A woman I have never seen before stopped me in my tracks to tell me when I walked in the door I took her breath away. I told her it was because of the colours I had on. To which she responded no you could have on any colour and you would still be beautiful because you are beautiful! I thanked her for making my day.

What was even more amazing was because I was so colourful, I felt colourful, spunky, brave. I felt like the Universe was conspiring with me to make the day a good one despite hearing some strange news first thing in the morning that tempted to derail my high. If I would have had my moody black on I may have taken on that negative energy and let it drain me. But because I felt good about me with the vivid colours I had on, I let the negative thought pass through me and out the other side and every time it tried to steal my thunder I closed my eyes and saw the reds, oranges, turquoise, blues and whites I had on and felt my inner soul start to shine.

My husband and I went to lunch together, a belated birthday lunch, and we sat out on a balcony of a restaurant overlooking our beautiful Hamilton Harbour. And I was filled with even more love and light and peace as we sat and talked like adults against a backdrop that rivalled anyone’s impression of what Utopia would look like. And it was because I was so colourful and feeling strong that I relaxed with him enjoying our stolen moment out of our everyday harried lives.

I’m hooked now on colours. I know what they do to my insides. I know what they do to my energy. And surprisingly I know what they do to the energy of those that come into my space. Colours  are a reflection of the beauty that is ever present in our lives, the turquoise of the ocean, the reds of the hibiscus flower, the whites of the clouds, the azures of the skies, the greens of the leaves, the purity of the sun.

I’m so glad I followed my instincts and decided to break my mould and come out looking like the colours of the rainbow yesterday because it cleansed my soul, opened my heart and shut out the negativity that may have caused me to have a bad day. And I am so proud of myself for embracing colours. May I be daring enough to put myself out there more adorned like the colours of the rainbow. Knowing how they truly benefit my mind, body and soul.
