Colors: How Do They Make You Feel?
One of the most important colors in advertising is the color blue. Calm, comforting, soothing, and peaceful are all feelings evoked from this color. The color blue is also often used in a smooth way, many night clubs and upscale stores will use this color to provide a sense of an icy ambiance and a cool feeling. When you touch blue you can feel the calmness yet smooth and cool feeling that it gives. Blue is the color of the sky and sea. It is often associated with depth and stability. It symbolizes trust, loyalty, wisdom, confidence, intelligence, faith, truth, and heaven. This color is also the color of water when advertisers want to place a visual for something that is technically clear. Pepsi, Aquafina, and several other drink makers rely heavily on this color for their advertising. This color can also be used to promote cleanliness as well as air and sky related products. Blue is also often used in high-tech product companies such as IBM and INTEL. One of the important things to remember as an advertiser, avoid blue when promoting anything related to food ? this is because blue actually suppresses the appetite. However, when used in conjunction with warmer colors such as red, or yellow, this combination creates a vibrant a high impact advertisement. Several variations in the shade of blue also have separate meanings. Light blue can be easily associated with the power of healing, understanding and health of ones body. In contrast, dark blue is often representative of seriousness, integrity, power and knowledge. The basic color blue is also representative of success and is often used side by side with the color green, even though they are next to each other on the color wheel, they are a good complementary mix when related to money and success.

Having Fun with Life
It was just a few degrees shy of swimming weather a few weeks ago at the beach. I walked along the shore in my jeans and a red tankini top, the salt air refreshing against my skin but not quite cold. My two sisters and some friends and I were taking a brief hike down the beach. Up ahead, a small freshwater creek came out of the pine forest along the beach and cut across our path. The water of the creek was a ribbon of earthy red crossing the white sandy beach. As we approached, I said to my sister Audra, "let's jump it!" It was a shallow creek, and only about seven feet wide, easily fordable. But something within me wanted to run, to leap, to risk splashing down in the cold water. Carefully wading across just wasn't going to do it for me. I wanted to jump the creek ? for no reason other than the fun of it.
Common Scents For Emotional Well Being
Aromatics which include essential oils, perfume, centred candles and incense, have been used for centuries to affect the mind (and also, ultimately, the body) in a positive way. This practice finds its origins in religion and primitive beliefs. Aboriginal Australians burned the leaves of eucalyptus to fumigate an area from viruses. Aboriginal Americans use sage and cedar and the Slavs, such plants as sunflower, pine and garlic peels for the same purposes. This was done because occult powers were thought to be sensitive to fragrances and could protect against fever, sorcery, epidemics and demonic charms.

Choose To Integrate Body, Mind, & Soul
Our bodies were made in such a way that everything is integrated. The
mind appears to control everything. When something happens to the
body whether good or bad, it registers in the brain and the brain then
dictates the bodies response. Scientists has found that it also works
that way within the body. Biofeedback has shown that the mind can
direct the immune system to fight various infections in the body includ-
ing the dreaded strains of cancer. For the average person this is a
wonderful idea, but biofeedback costs money and besides not
everyone has a life threatening problem. Imagine being able to do this
for yourself in the comfort of your own home, office or anywhere else
you can go to be alone for a few minutes! There are another kind of
science that is telling us that the body listens when we talk. Think
about that for a minute. When we talk we are saying what the mind is
thinking; we are just saying it outloud. So, it follows we can do our
own biofeedback anywhere we want. A very simple illustration of this
will prove this to you. Hold your arms out in front of you extending
your two index fingers. Shut your eyes and repeat our loud, "fingers
come together". Think it and say it and within two minutes your fingers
do come together. When I first tried this it was very exciting to me
that it worked because for me it opened possibilities in my mind! Since
then I have become a talker to myself! A self whisperer if you will. I
talk to my body and to my sub conscious even and I have gotten
amazing results. This is one thing that I think will work for everyone
because this is one of the functions of the body, mind and soul that
was part of the design, just as blood running through everyone's body
is the same. But, you must have an open mind! Your mind accepts
that blood runs through the body in a specific manner and so it must
accept that the body, mind and soul will listen when it is spoken to, no
matter who is speaking, yourself or someone else.
Happiness Fleeting
"You cannot capture happiness no matter how hard you may chase after it. Happiness is something that follows you."
The words of the old sage echoed in the young man's heart, sounding a constant beat like the song that plays over and over without reprieve.
"What does that mean?" he asked himself. "Time to walk," he continued, trapped in his own inner dialogue.
Shhhhh?
Like enough of the noise awready! Geesh, people?

Self Confidence, Happiness, and Posture
Our use of body posture plays a key role in how we feel. When we are feeling "down", our bodies show this by hunching the shoulders, we stare at the floor, our heads hang forward. When we are seated we tend to be slumped rather than relaxed. Our walk is more of a shuffle, speech is slow and quiet.

Although many for us strive for happiness in our daily lives to think of it as only a goal is I feel missing the true power of this very important emotion.
