色彩心理学如何帮助孩子们的成长？How color psychology help our kids grow?

在我们和四到九岁的孩子们

一起进行各种个样的工作坊的时候，

我们会发现一个有趣的点：

有些颜色非常受孩子们的偏爱

（蓝色、黄色、橘色、绿色......

很少会选择黑色或棕色）

为此，我们特地邀请了

EFT情绪释放技术治疗师和教练Sophie Dumont

来为我们解释这其中的道理。

During our numerous workshop sessions with kids (4-9 years old), we were quite surprised that kids chose some colors rather than others. Many of them prefer blue, yellow/orange, green, very few like the color black or brown. 

To discover the reason behind this, we invited Sophie Dumont, EFT therapist and coach to help us understand the color psychology and how can we use color to support the growth of our kids.

不知你有没有留意过，颜色会影响我们的情绪、行为、思想和动力？比如，相比阴天，当我们看到明媚的蓝天，我们会感觉更加幸福，充满活力，感到积极向上。虽然我们不总是注意到颜色的作用，但是它们对我们的健康影响很大。

每个颜色都会产生震动。有些是我们眼睛看不到的，但是我们的身体、细胞还有我们的情绪状态其实对颜色的震动是很敏感的，都会做出相应的反应。

Have you ever noticed how much colors can impact our mood, our behavior, our thoughts, our motivation? Let's take an example, a blue sky with a burst of beautiful sunshine will bring us more happiness, vitality and positivity rather than a grey day, obviously!

Although we don’t always pay attention to them, colours have a strong influence on our well-being. Each color produces vibrations. Some of them are invisible to the eyes. However, our body, our cells and our emotional state are sensitive to each color vibration and respond to it.

科学研究表明

改变环境的颜色

会影响人们的情绪和行为

刺激大脑和身体

甚至影响健康

这背后的解释是，光线穿过视网膜并触发位于情绪大脑、控制着神经系统的下丘脑，我们会注意到身体的一些反应，例如心率和呼吸的变化。颜色振动的强度会对孩子产生不同的影响，但是研究表明。接下来，让我们来举几个例子：

Scientific studies have shown that changing the color of an environment can influence the mood and the behavior, stimulate the brain and the body and even affect the health. The explanation behind this is that, when light passes through the retina and triggers the hypothalamus (located in the emotional part of the brain, helping the nerve system control), we noticed a physical response such as heart rate and flow of breath changing.

The intensity of the color vibration will affect children differently, here are some examples below: 

蓝色可以培养创造力并营造出一种凉爽和放松的环境。蓝色使身体和心灵平静。它降低了血压，心跳和呼吸以及焦虑或激进的感觉。蓝色的房间可以帮助孩子解决睡眠问题和情绪易怒。

小贴士：可以给孩子买一个蓝色的阅读灯，睡前在灯下读书可以让人联想到蓝色大海，帮助睡眠，一夜好梦！

Blue develops creativity and stimulates a calm and relaxing environment. Blue lowers the blood pressure, the heartbeat and the breathing as well as feeling of anxiety or aggressivity, calms down the body and the mind. A blue room can help kids with sleeping issue and anger. 

Tips: Don't hesitate to buy a blue reading light. Before going to bed, reading a book that relates to blue sea is good for a lovely dream and smooth sleep！

DOUCÉA现在也更加明白

为什么我们和孩子们一起创造的这款“雪人”设计

是橘色和蓝色的。

DOUCÉA team, from now clearly has understood why 'The Snowman' design co-created with kids was orange and blue. 

这些只是几个例子，来唤起我们对颜色和孩子们所处环境的关注。色彩理论经常被运用在托儿所和学校中，来帮助我们更好地选择颜色，这也是为什么DOUCÉA尊重孩子们的选择，选择蓝色而不是红色，选择橙色而不是紫色。

对颜色有良好的控制可以加强孩子们对信息的吸收，帮助促进他们的思考。同时我们也需要考虑许多其他因素，比如孩子的年龄、环境等等，来确保达到一种平衡.

Those are just some examples to catch our interest in the influence of colors and kids environment. The color psychology is often used in nursery and schools. It is the reason why DOUCÉA, to follow kids choice, picked blue over red, or orange over purple.

The well-executed color palette can enhance the absorption of information & facilitate the thinking process. But we need to consider many other factors such as the age of the children, their environment and make sure there is no excess. It is all about keeping a balance.
