After a stressful day at work, get a restful sleep by using right fragrances and color in your bedroom, suggest experts. Each color and fragrance have different role to play in promoting a restful sleep.
Using right fragrances and suitable color for your bedroom will aid in promoting good restful sleep after a heavy stressful day at work, say experts. These factors should never be disregarded to destress your mind. Alphonse Reddy, Founder //of Sunday Mattresses, said in a statement: "Each color has a different impact on each person and can generate a wide array of emotions. Calm is conducive to sleep, therefore, calm colors are the best bedroom colors to get you in a mood to sleep.
"Along with soothing colors, a good fragrance can bring the body and mind into harmony and also promote relaxation"
As for aromatic fragrances, they create a pleasant environment in the bedroom and calms one's mood and nerves, allowing him or her to fall asleep soon, said Jagadish B.S. from Natural Aroma World.
Essential takeaways:
* The color of your bedroom and decor play a major role in determining how well you sleep. Ganglion cells in our eyes are specialized receptors that are most sensitive to the colors we see and therefore affect how we sleep and feel during the day. It is important to choose a color theme in your bedroom that will help you relax and induce sleep.
* The color blue doesn't always make you feel blue. In fact, people sleeping in a room painted blue can get around 7 hours, 52 minutes of sleep every night, the maximum compared to all the other colors of the rainbow. Soothing blue lowers your heart rate and reduces blood pressure, making you get up feeling happy and refreshed.
