love with green is the association with nature. Green gives us the feeling of
being closer with nature and all the perks that come with, such as boosting our
mood and soothing our stress.

a lot more primitive than you might have realised. The fact that plants and
tree are green further contributes to how we associate it life. What could we
love more than that which is pumping oxygen into our air and literally giving
us life?

gravitate towards green as we believe natural food are more healthy. Even those
who don’t love to eat their greens are aware of how they’re better for their
health!

green can have a positive impact on our mental health as it reminds of us being
close to nature. In fact, living in proximity to greenery has been linked to
lower rates of anxiety or depression.

colours, especially blue or brown. The combination of green and blue together
can is often used to reflect nature, as it represents plants and water. The
combination of green and brown is usually used to represent organic or recycled
materials.

throughout their lives.
