First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they fight you. Then you win. - Mohandas Gandhi. Home History of Color Therapy Baker Miller Pink Home COLOR THERAPY WHAT IS COLOR THERAPY? Scroll down to see color associations. Color therapy is an area of holistic healing which uses color in an attempt to affect our mood, emotions and possibly even our health. There are different ways to incorporate color therapy into your life. You can sit under a lamp which emits different colored light. You can point colored light at a specific part of your body using a Penlight Set. There are also lamps available which light up the whole room or are directed to your body. You can use color therapy oils or baths, wear certain colored clothes or paint walls a specific color. Probably the easiest and most popular way is to wear color therapy glasses where you can see the world through "rose colored glasses," if you will (or green colored or yellow colored or violet colored, etc). The color of the light entering your body is concentrated in one spectrum. The mood or emotions associated with that color are enhanced, which can cause a shift in that direction.

Most of us feel better and more cheerful on a sunny day than on a gloomy, sunless day. Some people living in areas which do not get many sunny days in the winter develop Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). Studies have indicated that working the grave yard shift may be detrimental to your health. We need light to be healthy. Even though we don't see it, the light around us contains the full spectrum of colors. Each color has its own frequency and vibration. In some natural healing schools of thought, different colors are believed to relate to different parts of our body. You may want to read more about these energy centers, or chakras. It is thought by some that our tissues and organs need the same energies as light. When disease or injury disturbs the vibration and energy of an organ or area of our body, applying the associated color frequency can restore the body to health. Eastern medical practice teaches that we have meridians which carry energy through the body and connect to each organ. This is the theory behind acupuncture which attempts to remove blockages to the energy flow. Color is thought to do the same thing. Each color's vibration is associated with different attributes and qualities. Light entering through our eyes may trigger the production of hormones which control the biochemical system of the body. It also can influence our emotions and well-being by supplying the frequency we need to keep our mind and body in balance. Color does not heal. Rather, it enables the body to heal itself. POSSIBLE MEDICAL BENEFITS OF DIFFERENT COLORS More research needs to be conducted, but there are indications that different colors may have medical benefits.
