Technically, teal is a variant of the green-blue colour that’s neither too light nor too dark. It is a colour that is associated with healing, relaxation, and can be used in combination with many other hues on the color wheel to create vibrancy. It is a perfect choice for bedrooms owing to its soothing and positive effects on your sleep.

If you’re a psychology geek, you’ll know well that teal paint colour brings in spiritual balance and puts you in a reflective or meditative mood. This paint colour will surely do the trick if you need to boost the mood of your room.
