Light is energy, and to be healthy we need a balance of colour vibrations in our system. The different light affect and control all our primary functions including our growth and sleep patterns, our nervous and immune function as well as our sexual behaviour, appetite and digestion. Colour also affects our moods and mental state. Some colours are depressing while others are uplifting while certain colours stimulate the mind and others sedate us. By studying colour therapy you learn about the specific qualities and actions of the different colours and how they can be used to alleviate both physical and mental illness. You will also discover the mood-enhancing properties of colour that can be used to aid stress and generally improve your quality of life. The use of colour throughout time has proven to be a very powerful tool to help us configure our minds, body and soul to a more stable, peaceful and unity of being. This process goes back to ancient times and is still being used in institutions for mentally disabled to normal everyday use. All types of religions have used this method of power to enable themselves for the better. There are a few ways of using colour to benefit from their properties. One way is to stare at the colour. You simply sit comfortably and stare at the colour you would like to benefit from. In this site I have provided you all the colour plates needed to begin any of the processes talked about. Here is another way; look through stained glass in the colour you have chosen. To do this take your stained glass, place it by the window and reap the benefits. Another way is to pour some water into a glass of which colour you choose and let it sit by the window in the sunshine for around one hour or more and then drink the water. There is meditation of colour as well. This procedure involves you to imagine the colour and keep it in your mind; do not get distracted. Another way to reap the benefits of colour is to wear the colour as clothing. So you see there are many ways to involve yourself in the psychological benefits of colour therapy. |
