Choosing calming wall colors to improve sleep quality
Lately, I’ve been having trouble sleeping, and I’m starting to think the color of my bedroom walls might be part of the problem. The bright yellow shade looked cheerful at first, but now it just feels too stimulating, especially before bed. I read somewhere that soft blues or muted greens can help create a calmer atmosphere, but I’m worried it might make the room look cold or dull. Has anyone noticed a difference in their sleep after changing wall colors? I’m curious which tones actually make a room feel peaceful without looking boring.

A friend of mine went through the same dilemma when she repainted her bedroom recently. She ended up choosing a pale sage tone, and it completely changed the mood — calm, soft, and easy on the eyes. Sometimes even changing the paint finish makes a big difference. If you want to see how different hues look in real spaces, have a quick look at Painters in Port Alberni, BC; they’ve got examples of color combinations that work well for bedrooms. The cool thing is, you can use color to balance natural light — warmer bulbs and lighter fabrics can offset cooler paint tones perfectly.
