I visit a new place with a bit of worry and anxiousness. Immediately I'm intrigued about the environment. White walls making everything bright. A projector is showing a whimsical simple solid orange fox playful walking across some landscape. Just a few colors against white grass backgrounds. It takes my mind of my worry and anxiousness.
I ride an elevator up to the foyer and I'm greeted with walls of windows. Natural light pouring in. I check in with friendly people and get some directions. As I walk, I can feel my shoulders relax. I hear bird sounds inside the foyer. I look up and see "flocks" organized in fleets by bright colors above my head navigating a tall artistic 3D tree with birdhouses hanging from it. The tree and bird houses are white. I think I like these sounds and reframe my thinking from worry to, I've got this.
It's interesting how white, simple art with bright colors, natural light, and sound can change my mindset.

Sounds like an interesting place. Environment does play a huge part in mindset.
