Colour Therapy
Did you know that colour therapy can help to re-balance and/or stimulate your chakras (energy centres) by applying the appropriate colour to the body and therefore re-balance our chakras.
Each of our 7 main chakras vibrate at a different colour. By incorporating colour we can use the energy to heal and re-balance our energy body.
Red relates to the base chakra, orange the sacral chakra, yellow the solar plexus chakra, green the heart chakra, blue the throat chakra, indigo the brow chakra (sometimes referred to as the third eye) and violet relates to the crown chakra.
Red - On a spiritual level, this chakra relates to self awareness. That is to say our awareness of ourselves as human beings and our place on earth. It is the area of survival and relates to our basic human instincts of fight or flight. Red gives us courage and strength. The colour relates to stability and security.
Orange - On a spiritual level, this chakra relates to self respect. That is to say having the ability to give ourselves the freedom to be ourselves and to respect our own boundaries and requirements and, by the same token, having respect for the boundaries of others. Orange is the colour of creativity and we should give ourselves the space to have creative time just for us.
Yellow - On a spiritual level, yellow relates to self worth. How we feel about ourselves and how we feel others perceive us. This is the area of the personality, the ego and the intellect and of self confidence.
Green - On a spiritual level yellow relates to love / self love. that is to say the ability to give and take unconditionally. When balanced we are able to give this love and also to love and nurture ourselves, warts and all.
Blue - On a spiritual level blue relates to self expression. Speech, communication, the ability to communicate our needs and requirements. Spirit of truth and purpose.
Colour is absorbed by the eyes, skin, skull our ‘magnetic energy field’ or aura and the energy of colour affects us on all levels, physical, spiritual and emotional.
Indigo - On a spiritual level indigo relates to self responsibility, that is to say, being responsible for one's own life; responsibility to oneself to follow the soul's path and needs and trusting one's own intuition. The ability to see things from a 'higher' viewpoint rather than purely for satisfaction of the ego or one's material comfort.
Violet - On a spiritual level violet relates to self knowledge/ spiritual awareness. It is the union with your higher self, with spirituality, and your higher consciousness.
Every cell in the body needs light energy - thus colour energy has widespread effects on the whole body. There are many different ways of giving colour, including; Solarized Water, Light boxes/lamps with colour filters, colour silks and hands on healing using colour.
Incorporate colour into your life in your clothes, in your food and by the colour stimuli you are surrounded by mostly. I like to buy flowers weekly for myself, these flowers are part of my own colour therapy. I chose the colour that I am immediately drawn to trusting my intuition that it is the colour I most need right now for my own healing.
Colour Therapy is a totally holistic and non-invasive therapy and, really, colour should be a part of our everyday life, not just something we experience for an hour or two with a therapist. Colour is all around us everywhere. This wonderful planet does not contain all the beautiful colours of the rainbow for no reason. Nothing on this earth is here just by chance; everything in nature is here for a purpose. Colour is no exception. All we need to do is to heighten our awareness of the energy of colour and how it can transform our lives.
The capacity for health and well-being is within us all.
Love and Light Beautiful Ones
