History of color therapy
The fact of the influence of color on the human psyche and his worldview was noticed by healers of previous eras. They knew and actively applied knowledge about color in the treatment of patients. An example of this is the medicinal drink tinted with herbs, used in the time of Avicenna or colored in different colors stones applied to sore spots under Paracelsus. Inflamed areas of skin with infectious diseases In Russia, in ancient times, it was treated by applying a piece of red cloth, and for hepatitis, yellow beads were put on the patient. Science and medicine are moving forward by leaps and bounds, and we can still see the red thread tying the sore joint. Today, all these methods bring a smile, but it is still impossible to exclude the influence of color on a person. The human psyche, his perception of the surrounding reality and mood - these are the areas where color therapy has received real recognition.
The first information about the influence of color on the human psyche comes to us from ancient China, India and Egypt. During excavations in Egypt, special rooms were discovered where, according to scientists, color therapy sessions were held. Doctors of those times knew that Blue colour has a calming effect on the human psyche, so a highly excited person was placed in a room where the desired color prevailed. 
The influence of color on the human psyche
Color therapy is still actively used today. It is impossible to deny the influence of certain colors of clothing and interior on the mood. One color can relax, calm, and inspire. A different color instills panic or irritates.

Therefore, we are very dependent on the flowers we are surrounded by. If placed on long time Even an incorrigible optimist into a room in which there is not a single bright detail, but only gray and black tones, his mood will inevitably become depressed.
Each person is individual. But general trends can be identified. Knowledge about color is systematized and actively used. They form the basis of a test created by Max Luscher in 1923 for human psychodiagnosis.

This universal color looks great in combination with other, brighter and more saturated colors. He acts as perfect background, allowing you to refine even the smallest room with modest decoration. Neutral gray suitable for any room: from kitchen to living room. This color promotes calm and the search for harmony.
