However, experts say that blues don\u2019t necessarily make employees feel sleepier.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWhile blue might be perceived as a more relaxing color, blue light\u2014specifically around the 17,000k color temperature\u2014is actually better at making people feel more energized, or at least less sleepy,\u201d Ben Hamley, future of work lead at JLL Asia Pacific, told Forbes. \u201cThis is because it suppresses the body\u2019s natural production of melatonin, a hormone that helps to regulate our circadian rhythm, the pattern that determines when we naturally sleep and wake. You may have noticed newer phone updates will give you the option to \u2018shift\u2019 the color of the LEDs in the screen to be more reddish at night so you won\u2019t be kept awake at night by your TikTok feed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/realtybiznews.com\/blues-and-greens-help-to-boost-productivity-in-the-office-experts-say\/98757192\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Blues &amp; Greens Help to Boost Productivity in The Office<\/a> by Mike Wheatley | Realty Biz News<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Worker productivity could be boosted by the color scheme of the office they work in, according to a growing body of color psychology experts.
