Colour
Therapy
Color
therapy is an area of holistic healing which uses
color in an attempt to affect our mood, emotions and
possibly even our health. There are different ways
to incorporate color therapy into your life.
Although we would live, we would probably not be
healthy if we lived in total darkness without any
light. Light can affect our mood. Most of us feel
better and more cheerful on a sunny day than on a
gloomy, sunless day. Many people develop Seasonal
Affective Disorder (SAD) in the winter months
because very simply we need light to be healthy.
When disease or
injury disturbs the vibration and energy of an organ
or area of our body, applying the associated color
frequency can restore the body to health. Eastern
medical practice teaches that we have meridians
which carry energy through the body and connect to
each organ. This is the theory behind acupuncture
which attempts to remove blockages to the energy
flow. Color is thought to do the same thing. Each
color's vibration is associated with different
attributes and qualities.
Light
entering through our eyes may trigger the production
of hormones which control the biochemical system of
the body. It can also influence our emotions &
well-being by supplying the frequency we need to
keep our mind and body in balance. Color does not
heal, rather, it enables the body to heal itself.
