What colors stimulate sleepiness?

Something like a navy blue, beige, or any dark color should do the trick. Definitely stay away from bright colors, like a bright red, yellow, or green.

	Ah, there's the problem. My room is painted red.

The idea is to place yourself in a calming situation without vibrant colors. Take any color, for example, and de-saturate it 50% you'll get something more smoothing. Here are examples of muted tones:

As Ecto5 says, muted tones are typically what can make you feel sleepy. As they lack the vibrant effect, they will not be so overstimulating.

Personally, I always found that a mild yellow makes me very sleepy, as well as off-white colors.

Flashy black and white. Its soothing.


It would also help if it had the words sleep, tired, and dream, floating around in there.
