Chromotherapy
Colour is light and light is energy; so colour is energy or; in more poetic terms, colours are the passions of light and light is the soul of matter. Without light, forms cannot fully differentiate themselves, but when they are hit by colour (light) they acquire a different depth of reality. Chromotherapy, also known as colour therapy, is healing with colours. The healing often takes place in the healing rooms of alternative health practitioners. A trained therapist who excels in colour therapy uses colour to balance energy in parts of the body that are lacking it, be it physical, emotional, spiritual, or mental.
Chromotherapy originated in sanitary temples of light and colour in Egypt, Greece, India and China. To heal, one would direct light with filters of different colours towards different parts of the body using gemstones, candles, wands, prisms, coloured fabrics, bath treatments and coloured eye wear. Scientists that have studied colour and light, recognize that colours bring about emotional reactions. The soul lives in colour. It is as necessary to the soul as air to the body. If you take away colour, we are not aware of the appearance of matter. In 1665, Isaac Newton beamed sunlight through a large prism and found seven basic colours: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. The human body also reflects colours also known as white light. Colour therapy is a science where different colours change and maintain vibrations in the body which signifies harmony and good health.
Chromotherapy can re-establish our chakras, also known as energetic centres. If you apply different coloured lights to each chakras, we can obtain an external harmony. We ourselves have to take good care of our chakras because whatever method we use, we will observe an improvement in all of our areas, physical, emotional, and mental but it will only improve if you take good care of your chakras. A way to harmonise our chakras is with a stroboscopic light. A stroboscopic light can go on and off at different speeds and if you use filters of different colours, each of your chakras will gain speed. The increase of speed will re-establish it's own energy.
Chromotherapy is not just physical healing, it is also a spiritual force. Colour is a bridge between our inner and outer bodies. The more intimate our colour experiences become, the more tuned in we will become with the universe. Most of us do not fulfil the quota of ultra-violet that we all have because of more modern products. We can increase our exposure to full-spectrum light by simply going out in the sun more. Light automatically replaces darkness.
