Colour Therapy

Color Therapy, or Color Healing, is the therapeutic use of various forms of color and light for physical, emotional, mental and spiritual benefit to the human body. It is one of the oldest healing techniques dating back to the ancient Egyptians, Pythagorus, Goethe, and Rudolf Steiner.
Colour is another form of vibration, each color having its own resonance and its own relationship to a particular form of disease. The cooling colors in general are beneficial for the calming of the nervous system, for aiding with sleep and for relaxing the imagination.
The brighter more vibrant colors such as red and orange bring life force energies into our body. We must be knowledgeable about where and how to use color and for what time frames.
Color and light therapy involves the application of colour in a variety of ways, colored gels with light to penetrate and stimulate the body's meridians which corresponds to traditional Asian acupuncture systems as well as accessing and incorporating the axiational lines; colored lights applied to areas of the body, the use of colored lenses (prescription and non-prescription eyewear) for a variety of health concerns, the use of the sun, light applied to the eyes.
Further use of color is made in the environment through the use of colored light bulbs, the paints applied to a room, the color of carpeting and furniture, or through the use of certain colored clothes, sunlight, all of which directly impact the body through the bio magnetic (auric) field.
The great educator and metaphysician, Rudolf Steiner, used to apply different coloured paints to the classrooms of children according to their age and the growth of their brains. He observed and recorded greater learning skills using specific colors.
Color assists the body in its natural ability to balance itself and has been used for centuries by practitioners of the healing arts especially in Asia and in the ancient civilizations. Egyptian priests left manuscripts showing their system of colour science, and Indian and Chinese mystics had knowledge of colour in their secret doctrines.
