INDEED! Color = Brain Power!!

If you can’t remember appointments, have difficulty concentrating or try to solve a problem with no luck… Colors can help! In a University of British Columbia study, people who spent a few moments gazing at something RED scored better than average on a memory test. And those who eyed the color BLUE scored higher on tests gauging creativity and imagination. Researchers at U of BC theorize that we’re conditioned to slow down when we see RED – for instance stop signs and red lights – which help us focus. While BLUE helps us feel calm which in turn invites relaxation and opens us up to unique outside the box ideas!
