Seasons and colours

I’ve decided my new favourite season is autumn.

Having taken a walk across the sports fields near to where I work on a bright, crisp day surrounded by the most vibrant reds and golds and yellows, I was instantly lifted.

Whilst it’s lovely to see the greens of summer, the striking bareness of winter and the emerging buds of spring, surely you can’t beat the beauty of the fall.

Perhaps it has something to do with the colours themselves, after all, red reportedly:

“… boosts our circulation, raises blood pressure & gets our heart pumping faster. It raises our libido, increases determination & gives us the will to move forward. It pushes us to break free from the past & demands that we live in the here & now.”

And orange/gold is supposed to enliven and cheer.

Certainly did the trick for me!
