CHOOSING A YOGA BAG TO SUIT - OR SET - YOUR MOOD
Although we seldom think about it, colors can profoundly influence the way we feel, both physically and psychologically. Both indigenous Americans and ancient Egyptians are thought to have used colored lighting as medicine.
Because yoga better attunes people to the subtle influences of the world around them, you might want to consider what your choice of color for a yoga bag may mean or how it might even influence the way you feel about your workout!
Below is a look at what moods and emotional influences humans tend to associate with colors. Keep it in mind when selecting your yoga bag.
Blue: Hindus consider blue the color of Krishna. Like yoga itself, blue has the ability to reduce body temperature, pulse rate, and even appetite. Light blues are peaceful, uplifting, and non-threatening, whereas dark blues are often associated with depression. Blue is universally regarded as the safest color. Sounds like a good choice for a yoga bag.
Green: In India, green is the color of the Islam religion. In the west, green is the color most often named as people's favorite. It connotes coolness and is also associated with healing properties and calm. In some equatorial societies, however, green is mainly associated with danger. Green is perhaps the most common yoga bag color chosen.
Red: Red is the most attention-grabbing color. A red yoga bag might say "notice me." Red is associated with passion, desire, anger, speed, violence, and strength. It has the ability to increase blood pressure. Red is a symbol of luck and celebration in China, while in India it is the color of purity.
Yellow: Because it is the color of the sun, yellow corresponds to optimism, joy, hope, and imagination. A yellow rose symbolizes friendship rather than passion. But yellow can also signify cowardice, dishonesty, or betrayal. Asian cultures regard yellow as a symbol of things sacred and royal.
The next time you shop for a yoga bag, remember, color gives definition to our world and everything that surrounds us. Ultimately, colors' effects are individual and subjective. Take a moment to notice how the colors of the products you buy effect you. You might be happier about your purchase.
