Color & Energy
Every color of the rainbow falls into a specific frequency and vibration that affect the energy centers (chakras) within our bodies and the biofield that surrounds our bodies (aura).
Each color has a different wavelength. Red has the longest wavelength while violet has the shortest. That’s why when we’re exposed to the color red, we feel energized, and when exposed to violet, we feel calm.
Color Therapy Then & Now
Color Therapy, has a long history—Records indicate that color and light therapy were once practiced in ancient Egypt, Greece, China, and India. In fact, Hippocrates “The Father of Western Medicine” understood the power of color; he painted treatment rooms in specific healing hues and used color ointments on his patients.
Today, Color Therapy is used internationally as a complementary healing modality. It can be an effective treatment to alleviate physical, emotional, and mental disorders. A few of these are: SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder), arthritis, skin diseases, hair growth, newborn jaundice, asthma, digestive ailments and eating disorders, fevers, autism, ADD/ADHD. Color therapy is also used to regularize circadian rhythms, enhance creativity and learning abilities, speed up the recovery process after an illness or operation, and more!
