Color Healing
Did you know that colors have the ability to uplift your mood and heal you? The medical term for color healing is called chromotherapy. Chromotherapy is the use of the visible spectrum, or color light, to heal the physical, mental and spiritual energy imbalance that tends to lead to disease. This holistic method is a simple way to cure illness and does not require you to consume anything, nor does it require you to put anything on your body like ointment. All it requires for you is to simply just sit under the desired color
Colors are all vibratory. Each of the color photons has its own wavelength and frequency. The body recognises the waveforms and responds to them. The human body is composed of all colors from the visible light spectrum. Each of the color spectrum has a different effect on the mind, body, and emotions. The chakra system is associated with color healing because it uses the flow of the energy that regulates the body’s functions, and each chakra governs a certain color. For example the root chakra is governed by the color red. Red’s vibration is proven to bring stability and survival. Continue to read as I breakdown each color and its healing abilities.
