Introduction to Colour Healing - Chromotherapy
The art of Chromotherapy or Colour Healing is an ancient one and can be
traced back to early Egyptian times. The Hindus have used colour and its’
healing benefits as part of their Ayurvedic medicine system since ancient
times.
In the UK Chromotherapy is recognised by the medical profession as well as
alternative therapists of all kinds, as a powerful aid to recovery and healing.
The interiors of their medical clinics, hospitals and healing centres are painted
in appropriate healing colours to correspond with patient’s dis-eases.
Prior to using Colour Healing (or Chromotherapy) be sure to check the
medical history of your client/patient so that you do not use the wrong colour,
therefore possibly making their particular problem worse. (For example, do
not use Red for patients who suffer from high blood pressure). Record the
medical history, lifestyle, diet and colour preferences of the client. Also look at
the skin and use your psychic and intuitive abilities to tune-in and know that
you are using the correct color. Another method is to run your fingers down
the spine and feel the different vibration of each colour and intuitively/
psychically ‘see’ the colours.
The colours we see around us every day and the colours we choose to wear
and decorate our lives with all have significance, energy and vibrations all of
their own which influence us in different ways.
All colours, whether dark, pale, murky, bright or in between, tell a story. This
story is like the weaving of our lives and as our lives change constantly, so do
the colours that surround us. Each and every person on the earth plane has
their own personal colours around them. These colours can change from
second to second depending upon what is happening in their life, and even
as particular moods change. Also, as another person walks close to you or
interacts with you, just for an instant your Auric colour can change. Moods,
as well as our inner feelings, like when we are sad, tired, happy, ill or angry,
make colours around us change. These colours in our Aura are in constant
movement, even while we sit and relax, sleep and especially when we
meditate.
