Colours and smells are secret strengths to which we are spontaneously and mostly unconsciously subject, too. In the hectic weekday we have the head so fully that notice we did not make this one to the colours and smells at all.
The effect of the smells:
Since the memory connects a certain smell with a beautiful or unpleasant moment smells cannot only positive trigger but negative atmospheres also cause. Who does not know it, a certain smell wakes certain childhood memories, other smells cause Eckel. Our nose does not and whom tell exact, whom to us we can smell.
Man is an excellent nose, our sense of smell helps to survive us from time immemorial. We can be aware more than 10,000 different smells. We are influenced by it everywhere. At the daily purchase we just are managed by this power at the choice of partner. The industry has itself at the latest to this uses made. It shows us around really at the nose.
Perfume aurochs have the gift, the senses of the people to have effect and influence. The Parfuem of Patrick Süskind is called it: in the book: Who mastered the smells mastered the hearts of the people.
We are marked by smells and our nose reacts particularly on the really good smells like perfume. Parfuem can become the second skin to the reflection of our feelings and atmospheres for the expression of our corporeality.
How does smelling work?
The smell perception starts in the smelling muscous membrane in the nasal cavity right above. The smelling cells sit here. We have 3 million Riechsinneszellen approx. . Every smelling cell is specialized in a certain scent. The Rezeptoren sit on the Sinneshaaren of the smelling cells for the scent molecules which project into the watery slime layer of the mucous membrane of the nose. Before a scent docks to a Sinneshaar, so it comes loose into water at first. The scent in the cell triggers an electrical impulse, arrived at the receptor of the smelling cell. This is strengthened around up to 1000-fold and passed on via long processes of the smelling cells to the brain inside the cell. The nose is the only sense organ which conducts its impulses directly into the brain without other nerve cells still being in between switched. The impulses become, directly a seat of the emotions one brain part escorts named almond kernel. It is part of the so-called limbischen system. The arriving smell information causes in a flash a feeling in the almond kernel. Depending on smell this can be joy, fear or disgust for example.
Smell or stench:
Whether we like a smell or not is not innate. It is dependent on our experience which we have made with a smell. Some smells are already from birth known to us and therefore are found sooner than pleasant than other. The human foetus already takes taste-and smell substances of the menu of the mother over the umbilical cord. We, however, get to know most smells only after the birth and like or do not like. What concerns good and bad smells gives great cultural differences. Dried fish e.g. pleasantly or at least is not repulsive for the Japanese nose. Europeans however are less impressed by this smell.
Nice-smelling memories:
These memories and associations are activated also in the limbischen system. The memory lies the seat in the so-called Hippocampus in an immediate neighbourhood of the limbischen system. The pictures which the respective smell arouses arise here. At salt perhaps the last holiday by the sea etc.
Colours
We live in a world full of colours. We associate certain qualities with colours which are different from culture to culture. Live and colours are immediately connected to each other. A sunrise in black-and-white would be unthinkable. Man uses colours for more than 30,000 years, developed colour systems and used colours for certain purposes consciously. Colours arouse feelings and associations. Colours are radiation strengths which have an effect on us both in positive and in a negative way.
How are we aware of colours?
About associations:
colours work due to human aurochs impressions. A meeting with the colour red always brought blood, fire and love the blood into hot flush namely since red is obliged for the 3 Urerfahrungen to mankind. Red stood for danger always, the red traffic lights or the red stop sign signals hold danger and vigilance to us today certainly so. Growth, blood pressure, body temperature, muscle activity, sleep rhythm and immune system become atmospheres and thoughts by light beams influenced, as well our feelings. Our organism can take colours in various ways. Since colours have an effect on bodies and soul, we cannot change only each other ourselves but also situations by conscious use of colours.
About the symbolism:
Would go red in the course of the time to the symbolic colour of the courage, the strength and the war. Hangmen carried red, warpaints were red. The tradition and circumstances of a culture as well influence the colour effect. Green is an everyday colour in Northern Europe which is available in the abundance so. Whereas green very seldom is in the desert and symbolizes the paradise and luxuriant oases.
About oscillations and colour energy:
Colours do not exist, they are a product of our sensory perception which our seeing sense generates from the oscillation been aware and energy of the light. We are aware of people the colour spectrum this stretch a bow of the infrared rays (strap of heat energy) to to ultraviolet radiate (cold energy), the colours are therefore subdivided into cold and warm colours depending on composition from infrared radiate and ultraviolet radiate. These light oscillations and energy are not only perceived particularly by the eyes but by the whole object over the skin. These physical stimuli are changed to nerve momentum and passed on to the brain in the object cells. The nerve momenta trigger reactions in the brain which influence our well-being.
Spatial effect of colours:
Every man has a quite personal relation to colours and a certain colour votes quite intuitively for his clothes and other. If we are conscious of the qualities of single colours, then we can improve our quality of life through this.
Colours do not cause only atmospheres, however, but also influence a visual effect of rooms.
