The 'light' within me has not faded. — The power of gold to regain self-confidence

There are days when I lose my confidence and
feel small.

Today, I will delve a little deeper into the power of 'GOLD'
from the [Prescriptions for Color and Words],
which I also introduce on Instagram.◎

1 | When your motivation has withered...

A mountain of tasks, the judgment of those around you,
and the tendency to compare yourself to others.

There are days when thoughts like 'I'm just not good enough'
spin around in your head, aren't there?

When that happens, first take a deep breath.

2 | 'Gold' is the color of self-affirmation and radiance

• The shimmering luster boosts dopamine (the motivation hormone)

• Gold signals to the brain, 'There is value here.'

• It reminds you of the 'light' inside and gives you a gentle push.

3 | What happens in your brain and heart when you see gold

◾️ Visual cortex → Reward system activated
　→ The shimmering light boosts dopamine,
　　switching your motivation ON

◾️ Hippocampus reacts
　→ Gold connects with positive memories,
　　awakening circuits of self-confidence

◾️ Autonomic nervous system enters active mode
　→ A subtle sense of elation shifts you into 'action mode'.
　　Your breathing naturally becomes deeper

4 | A 5-minute 'Gold Boost'

1. Keep a gold item (a pen, accessory, smartphone case, etc.) nearby

2. Look at the shimmering part from different angles for 30 seconds

3. Without looking down, write down three 'things you accomplished today'

   • Ex) Woke up on time / Made my child laugh / Finished the document

4. Once written, draw a star ★ with the pen tip and read them aloud
