Where each colour goes
| Colour | Hex | Use it for |
|---|---|---|
| Work (lagoon) | #3FA796 | Work blocks, in a teal that never looks urgent |
| Health (leaf) | #7DBB5C | Walks, stretching and time outdoors |
| Personal (sand) | #F2DFA7 | Friends, visits and slow afternoons |
| Goals (sky) | #7EC8E3 | The things you’re collecting and building towards |
| Accent (driftwood) | #5B4A2E | Buttons, today’s date and highlights |
| Protected time (morning mist) | #EEF7E6 | A pale green wash over your protected time |
Why it feels calm
Every colour here is soft and a little sun-faded, the way a cosy game looks. Nothing is black and nothing is neon. Teal and green sit side by side on the colour wheel, so your work and your health read as one gentle stretch of the day, and sand marks the time that’s yours. If you’d like one category to stand out more, move the sky blue onto it.
Your week in island life
An island-paced week
- One small job each morning. Water the plants, check the post, then start.
- Visit a friend. Put one catch-up on the calendar.
- Decorate something. A shelf counts.
- Play, on purpose. An hour on your island goes in as Personal time, not as guilt.
