Workshop 1 Colour Psychology 

Colour Psychology will enlighten you to the impact of colour on mood, behaviour and perception, and how it communicates on a visual and subte level.

In this workshop you will gain insight into colour and meaning from a universal and personal perspective. You will also discover how colour and its applied psychology can promote harmony, enhance design and strengthen the integrity or meaning of a visual 'message' (person, place, product or thing).

Colour psychology workshops can be topic, application or industry relevant. These may include - personal, environmental, business or specific use applications. 

Workshop 2 Colour and You

Colour and You focuses on the personal colour experience. Learn how colour works energetically, and how it can be utilised effectively to enhance your life and wellbeing, to support creative self expression, connect with the spiritual essence of who you are, lift your mood, enhance image and increase self confidence.

You will discover your unique connection to colour - how your personality influences your colour choices and your harmonising colour palette for mind, body and spirit.

Workshop 3 Colour Therapy for the Home
