What can color therapy do for you?

Color therapy, simply put, is using intense exposure to specific colors to affect health. Some big believers in color therapy insist that being exposed to certain colors can affect specific internal parts of the body, for instance yellow is supposed to have healing properties for the digestive track.

While I'm skeptical to many of these claims, I definitely do believe that color can affect mood, and therefore emotional health and stress levels.

Here one small thing anyone can do to benefit from the effects of color in your daily life: The colors red and orange have been shown to boost energy levels, so try wearing these colors when you're having trouble getting energized for a workout.
