The beginning of a new year is prime time for seniors to move into assisted living — and it’s also a time when many of us decide to make changes in our day-to-day lives, from de-cluttering to redecorating. If you or a loved one is making the move to an assisted living apartment, or even if you’re just planning some much-needed updates to your current home environment, one of the most basic design considerations is color. Color choices in the home can express our personalities and preferences, of course. Beyond that, color can also affect our mental, emotional, and physical well-being.
On its most basic level, color therapy — also referred to as chromotherapy — is the use of color for therapeutic purposes.
Our advisors help 300,000 families each year find the right senior care for their loved ones.
