Feeling blue may not be all bad when it comes to enjoying a good night’s sleep.

Those who use this bedroom colour tend to get the best rest – nearly eight hours a night – and wake feeling happy and positive.

According to a survey, it is linked to calm, soothing feelings and is thought to slow the heart rate and even reduce blood pressure.

Green and yellow are also winners, with those choosing these colours clocking up roughly seven hours and 40 minutes of sleep.

However, it’s best to avoid purple, which is too stimulating and can cut nightly hours of rest to less than six. Grey and brown get the thumbs down for being too dreary and depressing.

The study, carried out by Travelodge, looked into 2,000 homes across the Britain to investigate the influence of colour on quality of sleep.

They found that people sleeping in rooms decorated in calm colours, such as yellow, blue or green, received the best night’s sleep.

Chris Idzikowski, Sleep Expert from the Edinburgh Sleep Centre said: ‘This is an amazing result, as there are specialised receptors called ganglion cells in the retina part of our eyes, which are most sensitive to the colour blue.

‘These receptors feed information into an area deep in our brain that controls 24 hour rhythms, and affects how we perform and feel during the day. That interaction between light, sleep and wakefulness is supremely important.’

The study also found that people who sleep in a purple bedroom are, on average, only getting five hours and fifty six minutes sleep per night.

They say that the reason for this could be that the colour purple is mentally stimulating which makes it difficult to switch off after a busy day.

The other two least favoured colour schemes are brown, where sleepers obtain on average six hours and five minutes sleep per night and a grey colour scheme which results in individuals getting on average six hours and twelve minutes sleep per night.

Colour Therapy & Holistic Interior Design consultant, Suzy Chiazzari, said: ‘Your bedroom décor can certainly impact upon your quality and quantity of sleep per night.

‘Although many people think purple creates a sense of luxury in the bedroom, this colour can reduce the number of hours of sleep you attain.

‘Purple has a strong connection with the more artistic community being a colour reported to stimulate creativity and the unconscious mind. Therefore sleeping in a purple room is more likely to promote vivid dreams or even nightmares; resulting in you feeling tired in the morning.’

The study also found that colour affects other bedroom activities. Couples who sleep in a bedroom that is decorated in a caramel make love on average three times per week. But those who sleep in a red bedroom make love just once a week.

People who have a grey themed bedroom are the ones spend the most time shopping online in bed, while a people who have a silver décor in their bedroom reported they are more motivated to exercise in their bedroom.

Oga, you are not aware that respect only goes one way in Nigeria? The husband alone deserves respect because he has pr!ck.

This is funny. LOL!!! how are you?

Shym3xx:
Lol, nothing got into me. It's called: growth.

I'm closer to 30 now than ever. And the more I've more relations with white women, the more I see that they're much more desirable partners than most black women.

They cook, clean, are much more caring and submissive, and they tend to understand things better. The only downside is that they tend to get attached too easily. And that's understandable now, especially when you look at the upside.

White women aren't even the black man's enemy. The enemy behind white supremacy is the white man and, his vessel in the black community is the black woman. Once I established that in my thought process - finding white women attractive became much more easier. Also, I've been living in a predominantly white middle class area for four years now (I'd say since I was 17/18 when I left London for Uni, though I never paid attention to them too tough until recently) and 99% of the women I work with are extremely attractive white women. And they offer more.

Regardless, I'm still pro-black on most issues but I just prefer white women to black women now due to mental growth and observation. And as a black man, if you want to save yourself, in the current clime, you're better off with white women. Black women are agents of the white man's dehumanisation of black men. And both black men and white women have the same thing in common: we're both victims of white men and black women...and we're also the most natural/desirable groups.

Excellent logic @the bolded

christinnah:

MotherOfDragons:

pls help.am i being unfair?


NB:this is not my story.a friend aske me for advise but i dont know what to say so im referring her to you

The girl in question is not being unfair at all. It may be hurtful but guy should respect her decision. Sometimes we have to be hurtful to truly care in the long run.

"True love" is elusive. Though it is safe to assume that the one you have is "true".

O0XYGEN:
You are such a joke.
Ghanaians dont regard private universities ok.
Probably he even bought those grades.
The said school is not even in the top 50 universities in Ghana.
You guys should Stop celebrating mediocrity

Why are you so pained? Are you a devil?

banmee:
By comparism, you mean Nigeria is corrupt where justice is hard to come by and indonesia seems to be not? What is it about that is a lie? I am beginning to ask too many questions again ooo.

You threw a tantrum and thereafter abrogated the pejorative remark to avoid nemesis. You did this after I gave you the reply you deserved. That sounds like cowardice. I don't like that thing that you did. Don't repeat it again next time. Thank you.

TheNewIbadan:
No smoke without fire. I remember a video of an Indonesian custom officer singling out the Ino tribes as drug traffickers.
Why not Yoruba and Hausa?

You people are known for this trade. Executions of drug dealers is supported.

You don't know what you are saying. What you are supporting does not benefit you in anyway. In fact, it's to your own disadvantage. BTW, I am not Igbo. You think I am Igbo because I didn't support this bullcrap. SMH

TheNewIbadan:
They warned your people about the death penalty.
Your selfish people sell drugs to innocent people and ruin lives. Death execution supported.

If you ever go to Indonesia, don't you know that you may be stigmatized and marginalized if occurrences like these are on the high.

TheNewIbadan:
99.9% chance that he's a drug dealer because he's Ibo.

Shun sentiments. This news is not in anyway to your advantage.

banmee:
Really? Who are you to say it was without fair hearing? The law is the law. You break it, you pay. This is rich coming from a Nigerian who is used to injustice talking about fair hearing. Lol. Jefferson was not dealing with Nigerians where you can bribe, cajole, threaten or blackmail your way out of justice. You call it murder, normal people call fair and equitable justice. I am against death penalty for any crime, but if it is the law, then guess what? It is the law.

Your Inferiority complex will soon be your undoing. So lndonesian laws is now superior and more transparent than yours? SMH

TheNewIbadan:
The government don't care about drug dealers

How did you know that he is a drug dealer? Are you a ghost?

Why not resign if you are not OK? Mtchew

I think it is better not to go Indonesia if you are carrying a Nigerian passport. Bigots from a particular tribe will not understand this. They keep running amok all over threads of this sort.

K4:
another shitnigerian goat talking from its AnUs,huh? so what if Ghana owes you f00ls for gas? is it now a business transaction? how much has Ghana paid you imbecciles since it started buying gas from you ediots? Is it not more than than the amount allegedly owed? If Ghana had paid even far bigger sums in the past, why can't it pay whatever it owes today? you see, you are very stvpid. you know why? simply because soon you miserable mudder fuggers wont even find anyone to buy your oil and gas your traditional clients have all stopped buying your oil and soon the same will hapen to your gas.

from somalia to liberia, every country now has oil n gas. soon you apes will be begging Ghana to come and buy your gas



[s][/s]

You belligerent barratrous bigot. If you can't type in English, don't mention me again. I told before that I do not understand neanderthal language. You are owing a debt you can't pay yet you are here making noise. Your tomfoolery stinks in colossal proportions.

K4:
hahaaha I feel your pain, magg0t Hahahaha whack a con! a goat talking from its aNuS, as usual.

You can join the kidnappers association https://www.nairaland.com/1113441/kidnappers-float-association-banner-nsukka

[s][/s]

You still have the effrontery to spew gibberish. No wonder you will keep begging and owing us

K4:
Suck my dick, stvpid,evil shitnigerian with inferiority complex! Ghanaian will always win because we’ve been your masters, even from colonial times! Go and study your history, mudder fuggerz!

You should thank those Ghanaian teachers who made a big differences in your miserable lives

Being Ghanaian is an honour so deal with it. Shinigerians know Ghanaians are superior, they’ll just never admit it.

[s][/s]

You are a mere capricious newbie twit without a single nard. I feel so debased to know that there is a living emptiness like you. You belligerent coprohagic cloacal parasitic pond scum. Fvck off.

K4:
Shitnigerians and fuelishness and stvpidity there are more illiterates in your Godforsaken Sh1thole in your country, university graduates can't speak english even sef your NYSC people don talk am

[s][/s]

Crawl back to the hole you came out from. You chromosomally Aberrant caricature of an hominid. Next time you want to make a post in this forum, use English. Stop expressing your self with neanderthal language.

Indonesia and their barbaric laws

psucc:
Op I feel your pains. For you to put up that novel up there means you it really pained you. Ndo.

If somebody tells you he/she evolved from ape, congratulate the fellow and keep clear from him since s/he is an animal

This should suffice, don't be too angry please.

LOL @ the bolded.

jpphilips:
You are telling me some state is higher than another when you have no clue what they produce, are you ok?
Why will Rivers have a higher 13% than AK, If AK produce highest?
I have told you guys, leave the politics section, there are other sections like celebrity where emptiness will be well appreciated.

Sir stop showing your ignorance on a public forum. Don't you know that technically, the derivation principle does not signify the degree of control or ownership of resources as misunderstood by people like you? Or don't you know that the federal government owns mineral rights exclusively? In short, why am I even wasting time trying to school you when I know you don't comprehend simple things. Please don't mention me unless you have something important to say. Good day.

jpphilips:
Mention the volume then pick up a calculator. They are the highest producing but you read that Rivers 13% deriv is higher than theirs, how do you think 13% derv is calculated? most of you here are not old enough to read the dailies.

Sir stop this now. Don't repudiate what is glaring. If you didn't even know that Akwa ibom is currently the largest oil producing state in Nigeria, why should I believe that you can calculate the 13% derivation? I don't engage in online squabbles. This is my last reply to you.

jpphilips:
How much oil does Akwaibom produce, can you guess? you guys should stop unsolicited dumb analysis to score cheap political points.

Is Akwa ibom not currently the largest oil producing state in Nigeria? Don't be presumptuous.

But why didn't APC say all these things during their presidential campaign? Were their promises not based on projected economic situations? These people are just too dumb

Can someone please tell Mr President that this is 2016

No one desires to be a tout or "Agbero." but there seems to be an impossibility of a better offer so folks resort to these things. As long as the rate of unemployment is on the high, those people will still be around for a long time. It's sad that we have the deal with these verminous systems.

Harmored:
Please am still working on my machine,so we can test it on the man



YOU CAN ALSO PRE-ORDER

LOL. Funny picture.

omonighoblessing:

Yes dear. So happy to hear from you after a while. take care.
