Color Therapy
or Color Healing
is the use of color in various forms for the
purpose of creating balance and health in the
human system. The human system includes not only the
physical body, but also the emotional, mental and
spiritual aspects (PEMS). Working with the PEMS is
referred to as wholistic medicine. Some of
the forms of Color Therapy are:
COLORPUNCTURE
and SAMASSATI
COLOR THERAPY
Colorpuncture and
Samassati Color Therapy use
color light on
meridians and
acupoints,
chakras, in
the aura, and
on various
reflex
zones. Just as needling (acupuncture)
or applying pressure (acupressure and Shiatsu) to
meridians and acupoints, color in the form of
light,
crystals,
essential oils, etc., can
also affect the electromagnetic
circuitry of the human system.
Samassati Color Therapy is rooted in
Colorpuncture using the techniques of
Colorpuncture. The difference is that with Samassati
Color Therapy, there is less emphasis on
following the techniques by rote, and more about
sensing the effects of specific colors,
listening to one's intuition regarding color and
placement, and feeling the effects of color with
all the various
energy pathways of the client. It's learning
about Color and Light
viscerally.
CRYSTAL HEALING
or CRYSTAL
THERAPY
Crystal Healing or Crystal Therapy
is the laying on of stones to restore balance
to the chakra system and
heal the physical body, emotions, mental thoughts
and the spirit. Stones are placed based on color,
quality, sacred geometry. I graduated from Katrina Raphaell's
Crystal Academy of Advanced Healing Arts in
1 991.
To this day, I've not found any training that comes
close to its depth of information and quality of
experiential exercises. The training was a deeply
personal journey for me, and I was easily able to
use the techniques I learned immediately with my
clients. The Crystal Academy teaches the
ancient art of laying of
crystals and stones on the body for healing.
You also learn about the healing properties of
many crystals and stones and the history of
Crystal Healing. Mostly, the training is
experiential, because the best way to learn is by giving
and receiving the work and then sharing the
experience with others.
COLOR SILKS THERAPY
Another
form of Color Therapy uses colored silks on the
body, primarily over the
chakra centers. Also being natural fabrics,
cotton and wool carry a healing vibration as well,
but silk carries the highest frequency vibration
of any natural cloth. Because of this, colored
silks have the ability to radiate their signature
color frequency to the physical body and
energy field
(aura). The energy of silk is soft yet
potent, allowing one to soak up the color
frequency. One of the beauties of Color Silks
Therapy is that you can place an entire sheet of
color over the entire body, or place an
single color on a particular part of the body.
And the good news is, any type of silk is fine to
use as long as it is 100% silk fabric.
HYDRO COLOR THERAPY Hydro Color Therapy
(also called Hydrochromotherapy), which incorporates
water and color, is a very effective way of
transmitting color onto and into the physical body.
Water is well known to be a powerful conductor of
energy, so it is an natural choice for transmitting
color energy into the body. Two of the
ways color and water can be used are: Infusing color into
filtered water via the sun for internal consumption,
and color light
with a shower or tub.
Bringing
color energies into the body with filtered,
color-charged water is a wonderful experience. All
you need to do is find some colored glass bottles
that are non-toxic. NEVER USE
PLASTIC BOTTLES as they contain toxic
substances that are released especially with heat.
Fill the glass color bottle with pure filtered or
distilled water and place the bottle in the sunlight
for at least a day. Store in a cool place until you
are ready to drink the water. Drink some
blue-charged water before going to bed to help relax
the nerves and mental chatter. Feeling depressed and
listless? Drink some red-charged water for energy
and vitality. Yellow-charged water can help with
detoxification. Turquoise-charged water is like
swimming in a tropical paradise; it brings calm and
playfulness. Orange-charged water has the ability to
act as a aphrodisiac, stimulating our sexual desire.
Violet-charged water is useful when we would like to
calm the mind during meditation. While green-charged
water is an overall harmonizer and balancer.
LED
lights are now being widely used in bathtubs,
showers, hot tubs, jacuzzis, swimming pools, etc.
The color light is beamed into the water, which
allows your body to take in the color energy through
the skin. Very much like tonating color light on the
skin with a color light instrument, water acts as an
amplifier of the color energy completely saturating
the body.

The hertz vibration
on the planet is rising, as well as everything on, in and
around it. We are now able to perceive new colors
that we have not seen before. Notice the light as it
reflects off the bark and leaves of trees and the soil...
notice the color of the sky. Colors are becoming richer,
deeper, and many new colors are making themselves available
to our perception. What are these colors and what do they
mean? Some of these are the in-between colors or the
paler colors of the rainbow spectrum and they offer us a
deeper understanding of ourselves.
The new colors are
really not so new. They are the "in between" colors
and the paler colors of the rainbow palette.
The "in-between"
colors are those colors between the rainbow
colors of the Chakras.
The "in between" colors give to us the nuances of
realities beyond our 3-dimensional knowing. They show us
that so much more exists than our everyday reality. By
meditating and wearing these colors, you may find the "in
betweens" of yourself.
The paler colors
are the colors we know but with more light in them.
It's as if a spotlight has been shown on color so that
more of that particular color speaks in our life. It is
color with intensity. Often what is hidden in the
paler colors is an experience of unshed tears and
suffering. |
