WHAT IS COLOUR THERAPY
Colour Therapy uses colour to balance the body’s Chakras by using the seven colours of the light spectrum.
Colour Therapy targets to balance and enhance our body’s energy centres/chakras, which can help to stimulate our body’s own healing process.
HOW COLOUR THERAPY WORKS
“Colour as the manifestation of light held divine status to many. Egyptian healers wore breastplates of blue to mark their sacredness.
In Greece, Athena wore a golden robe to signify her wisdom and holiness. Colour can be used on the different parts of the body in several various ways.
As with any therapy, each therapist may have his or her own ‘style’; however, many standard methods are used
- The placing of colour silks on the body.
- The directing of coloured light onto the body.
- Solarized water.
- Meditation with colour.
- Colour and breathing.
