A Dark Colored Bedroom Can Mean Better Sleep
Many people like brighter paint colors for the rooms of their house, including their bedroom. This can be an obstacle to good sleep however, especially if you are in your bed when the sun is out such as in the early morning.
Light coming through the windows will be reflected or amplified by brighter colored paint. This means that your room will be brighter, and a bright room is more difficult to sleep in than a darker room. This is because light tends to "activate" the brain while darkness tends to "deactivate" it.
Therefore, choose a darker paint color for your bedroom. It will absorb light and make your room darker. Your sleep may improve as a result!
See sleep and darkness for much more information on this and related issues.
