Green is just one of those colours that makes you feel good when you see it. That is why a really lovely green lawn is so important to all of our lives.
By having a beautiful green lawn right at your door step, means you always have that comfort right there when you need it.
Green is the colour of Go! Of Peace. Of Hope, and nature. And according to the practice of colour therapy, green is the colour that invokes feeling of positivity, profitability, calmness and hope. It is the colour of healthy nature, and the colour that our brain tells us that everything is going to be “ok”!
“The colour green is reassuring on a primitive level,” explains Karen Haller, a specialist in behavioural colour psychology and author of The Little Book Of Colour. “Early humans evolved to instinctively know that when they saw green, they’d be able to find food and water. (from Stylist magazine August 21) . And when our brain knows that our bodies will be nourished, it allows us to feel happy.
It’s not only our eyes that want to see the Green to make us feel good, but also our bodies want to feel the Green. There is a technique called Grounding. Sounds weird, but it really just means walking with bare feet across the grass; to reconnect with the earth. According to Healthline “…Grounding, also called earthing, is a therapeutic technique that involves doing activities that “ground” or electrically reconnect you to the earth…One of the easiest ways to ground yourself to the earth is to walk barefoot. Whether this is on grass, sand, or even mud, allowing your skin to touch the natural ground can provide you with grounding energy.”
Although we have all moved into towns and cities, our bodies and minds are still longing for the full natural calming sensory experience of Green!
The easiest, the best, the most convenient to all our busy lives, to give ourselves what we need, is to have a soft, Green lawn. Your lawn will allow you to see Green first thing in the morning, as you wake up and sip on your warm brew. Allowing you to have a positive outlook for the day.
At the moment with so many lock downs, and border issues, we are often unable to get out and about in nature to satisfy our need for Green. By having a Green lawn that you can walk across in bare feet, or a soft Green calming place to sit on in the warming sun, your body can get its green fix. Your lawn is great place for calm relaxing times, as well as loud busy play.
Getting outside and kicking a ball to each other, or throwing a toy for your 4 legged loved ones, gives you those wonderful good endorphins pumping through your body.
