Think about the mug you reach for in the morning, the sweater you love most, the shade of paint on your walls. None of these choices are accidental. Each one reflects a small piece of your emotional world.

Even the colors we reject have meaning. Avoiding bold reds or yellows can hint at a need for calm, while craving them may show readiness for renewal.
