Color therapy is a complementary treatment that has been used for thousands of years in many ancient cultures in Egypt, China, and India.

This research seeks to find a fashion trend from the field of bioenergy to create designs suitable for hyperactive children in late childhood (from 9 to 12 years) and to benefit from them in improving the psychological state of children. Therefore, eight designs for clothing for hyperactive children of both sexes (males/females) were prepared to suit the morning and afternoon periods. Experts agreed that the fifth design, inspired by the crown chakra, is the best design. It obtained the highest quality factor in most of the evaluation objectives, due to the color element (violet color) was also achieved in this The design has a clear effect on hyperactive children as an aid to modifying their behavior.
