Colour Therapy

1. INTRODUCTION

From the beginning of time, people have recognized the healing power of colour. The

Vedas and quantum physics agree that all matter is made up of energy vibrations at the most

fundamental level. If we look through a prism we will see that everything in the world is

surrounded by colour. We all depend on light for our existence. For example, without the sun

we would have no plants to give us the nutrition which we need, we would have no trees to

absorb the toxins and produce oxygen. As we get and maintain our health from the sun, we

also benefit from the interrelated element of the light which is the color. Colours are

manifestation of cosmic powers: the powers which are responsible for life. Our ancestors

diligently devised rules to understand the potentials of colours. The colours work like

generators of energy in the bodies. The sun is an unending source of energy for the creatures

of the earth. If this system would fault and the planet earth is deprived of the sunlight, every

form of life flora and fauna would also perish. We cannot ignore this fact that the sunlight

plays a pivotal role in our diet. All our food items have colours in them.

Each colour affects the brain differently. For example the very bright, intense hues

and shiny colors affect the most primitive, deep part of the brain known as the limbicsystem. Some people see the color red when they are angry and this reflects the connection

between the physical reaction to colors and emotions. Colour therapy involves the use of

energy vibrations of color in treating specific ailments and helps in balancing the natural

rhythms of the body through identifying what color the body feels a need for, to create a

balanced energy level.

Every colour has its own therapeutic value and each one can be used to treat a

particular physical or emotional problem resulting from an unbalanced level of vital energy.

There are many ways of working with colour; the most effective is to place the treating color

either over the whole body or on a particular spot that is suffering from a disease. Another

method is for the colour practitioner to simply lay a scarf with the color needed for healing,

on the area to be healed. The body should start to change its energy to match the vibrational

energy of the healing colour allowing for a more balanced state. Colours have such curative

property which provides health to both types of patients. Colours are the means of purging

our densities, cleansing our mind, feelings and finishing our inner darkness.

2. COLOURS

In 1666 Sir Isaac Newton expounded the Principles of Gravitation and Theory of

Colours. When the sunlight or the light waves according to this theory, pass through a prism,

they disperse according to their frequencies into seven bands and this grouping of waves as

colours. All the other colours are shades of these seven bands of violet, indigo, blue, green,

yellow, orange and red. Colour, in actual fact is that quality of the light which itexpresses

after mixing with darkness or colour is simply light of different wavelengths, and each

wavelength resonates with different energy centers of our body and aspects of our life.

Colour can be therapeutic as well as diagnostic. Our eyes are more sensitive for yellow and

green colours and interestingly the sunlight also boosts yellow and green more than other

colours. Colours witnessed in a spectrum are only the visible part of the spectrum. The

waves, which have wave lengths shorter than violet waves cannot be seen by our eyes e.g.

ultra-violet rays, x-rays, gamma rays etc. Similarly the waves of larger wavelengths than the

red also cannot be seen e.g. infra-red and microwaves. It is not so that everybody can witness

the colours other than the seven colours of the spectrum. There are people who can witness

even the invisible waves of the electromagnetic spectrum. We see an object black because it

absorbs all the waves of the light and we see an object white because it reflects all the waves

of the light. We see an object red because it reflects the waves of the red colour only and

absorbs all the other waves.

3. HEALTH AND COLOURS

The light, heat and color of vibrant rainbow waves create effective vibration not only

in human but animal tissues as well. This frequency creates effects on the tissues. Specific

colours affect specific glands. The details of which are as follows:

Proper usage ofcolours restores the immune system of the patients. A premature bornbaby kept in the incubator in adequately supplied oxygen and violet light completes his growth

swiftly. The sun light contains certain minerals and gases, which are the chief constituent of the

human food thatprovides us energy. If food and light both are supplemented the energy could be

increased many folds. All the colours are present in the sun light and all our needs are associated

with these colours and ifthe sun light could be stored in our biological system then the needs ofthe food could be fulfilled by consuming energy from that store directly. Sun is an important

source for the extraction of Vitamin D". Sunlight contains vitamins other than Vitamin D as

well and every vitamin is related to some color.

VITAMIN COLOUR

VITAMIN A YELLOW COLOR

VITAMIN B GREEN COLOR

VITAMIN C LEMON COLOR

VITAMIN D VIOLET COLOR

VITAMIN E VIOLET COLOR

VITAMIN K DARK BLUE COLOR

The best way of absorbing colors is to use fruits, vegetables and citrus things. The

sunlight is directly absorbed in fruits and vegetables but we have to take care of color balance

in our diet, by over cooking and frying a lot the colors in nutrition are lost.

4. THE ASTRAL BODY

Energy centers are not located in every part of the body but it keeps on circulating the

entire body, from head to toe and discharges. Our body emits light just like the stars in the

cosmos. Our body is enveloped in another body of lights, which is called the astral body by

the spiritual masters. The astral body is composed of those basic waves or the rays that are

responsible for the commencement of the existence of a being. This body, the body of lights

remains glued to the physical body of ours but the reflection of the lights of this body spreadsup to nine inches around our physical body. Torch with batteries could be a close example of

this thing. The bulb in the torch is the astral body, which is the actual source of light in the

torch. The beam or the torch spreads not only outwardly but it is also directed inwardly. The

reflection of the astral body spreads up to nine inches around the body. Just as a star emits

light in the system of galaxies, our body too emits light. Probably the reflection of the astral

body is being termed as aura by the scientists who are doing researches in this regard. The

astral body cannot be sighted by mean of any material gadgets but its reflection can be

observed because of the fact that the reflection involves materiality to some extent. Health,

delight, sorrow and even the whole human life depends upon the astral body. If the astral

body is healthy one stays healthy and if the astral body is not healthy then the physical body

can never be healthy. All the urges pertaining to life is transfer to the physical body from the

astral body.

Form and shape of the astral body depends upon the volume and the potential of the

energy that is surrounding us. This energy after circulation all around us is earthed through

our feet. In this way a large amount of the discharged energy remains stored in our feet.

Proper exchange of the energy earthed from the feet and the energy found in the earth

beneath our feet is very important for the health of a person. If the extra-accumulated energy

in the feet is not discharged properly then one may become unconscious. Astral body remains

in a state of perpetual variation but sometimes, the lights of the astral body become static.

And when the lights of the astral body become still for few moments, one becomes connected

with one's soul and this enables him to witness even the unseen things existing around.

Colour Therapy

Sometimes we happen to come across such lively people whose astral body appears to be

filling up the whole room. And then there are people whose astral bodies are shrunk, distorted

or colourless. When such a person enters a place the whole atmosphere becomes unpleasant.

Then there are people who enjoy such an air around them that everybody who so ever comes

in contact with them is impressed because of the, charismatic effect of their personality. This

can happen either in positive or negative manner but this is certain that a person with a

powerful aura or strong astral body dominates the person with the weaker one, or in other

words one accepts the hue of others personality.

5. THE COLOUR POINTS/ CHAKRAS

The human body and the earth, according to Book of Hopi, the Red Indian tribe of the

North America resemble a lot in their structural formation. Both have their own axes around

which all their movements revolve. The axis of all the activities and movements ofhuman bodyis the backbone. There are certain points on this axis upon which the health and well being of a

person depends. According to the teachings of Vedas and Yoga, the health of the physical body

its movements and other activities all depend upon certain points of energy found in the human

body. These energy points are called as colour points or chakras. The colours of the energy

centers in the body are given as:

6. PROPERTIES OF COLOURS

Colours have been broadly classified into three categories of hot, cool and moderate.

Red, orange and yellow and all their shades are hot colours. The blue, sky blue and violet are

cool colours whereas the green is neither hot nor cool. If the disease is considered to be the

result of excessive heat in the body system then the cool colours are applied, for instance in

fevers and for burn cases the colour blue is applied. And, if the disease is due to lack or heat

or is a result of coldness in the body system then for the hot colours are used for the treatment

for example, low blood pressure and paralysis demand red.

Violet

Violet relates to self-knowledge and spiritual awareness. This colour is known as one of the

cool colours. It has a calming effect on us and is, therefore, helpful for those people

experiencing difficulties in sleep or stress. However, it can be contra-indicated for those

suffering from depressive disorders. Violet, being the colour relating to our spiritual

connection, can be helpful for meditation.

Indigo

Indigo relates to self-responsibility that is, being responsible for ones own life. It enhances

our ability to see things from a higher viewpoint rather than purely for satisfaction of the

ego or ones material comfort. Indigo is a sedative and helps in opening up intuitive powers.

It is the colour of divine knowledge and the higher mind. It is suitable for more quiet places

like bedrooms, treatment rooms, and study, but not for areas of entertainment.

Colour Therapy

Blue

Blue relates to self-expression. It signifies speech, communication and the ability to express

our needs and requirements. It enhances the spirit of truth and purpose. It is a calming,

relaxing and healing colour, though not as sedating as indigo. It can be used to create a

relaxed, constructive communication space. It can be used in all areas except those used for

physical activity or play.

Green

This colour relates to self-love and the ability to give and take unconditionally. Green is a

balancing colour, in the middle of the visible spectrum. The higher three colours are known

as the cool colours and are calming in effect while the lower three are known as the warm

colours and have a stimulating effect. Green is the balance between these two. At the end of a

colour therapy treatment, the therapist generally uses green as a balancing colour. It can be

helpful in times of stress. If one has experienced a trauma, a green silk wrap around the

shoulders can have a strong therapeutic effect

Yellow

Yellow relates to self-worth, how we feel about ourselves, and about the way others perceive

us. It is closely linked to self-confidence. It is the colour of the intellect. It can be very helpful

with study and tasks where concentration is required. Using a yellow-coloured paper to study

for exams can enhance memory and retention. This is the reason why lawyers use yellow

legal pads, as they need to remember all the details.

Orange

Orange is related to self respect. It refers to the ability to give us the freedom to be ourselves

and to respect our own boundaries and requirements, and by the same token, to respect the

boundaries of others. Orange is the colour of creativity. It stimulates and energizes us, and is


NITK, Surathkal


10/20

Seminar Report2012

Colour Therapy

warming. Orange is the colour of fun and sociability, and can be used in any activity area. It

is not ideal for bedrooms or areas of possible stress.

Red

Red relates to our awareness of ourselves as human beings and our place on earth. Red gives

us courage and strength. It is stimulating and energizing. Therefore, it is helpful for getting

over tiredness and lethargy and to boost sluggish circulation. Red, in its most positive sense,

is the colour for courage, strength and pioneering spirit. However, it is also the colour of

anger and violence. It is energizing and excites the emotions, and can stimulate the appetite.

Therefore, it is often used in restaurants. Red can be used in any activity area, but needs

careful choice of tone, depth, and the space in which it is to be used. It can make a space look

smaller and can be claustrophobic or oppressive. However, used well, red and its variations

can make a space feel warm and cozy.

Other Colours

White

White contains the entire spectrum in itself. It stands for purity and strength. It is cleansing

and purifying for the entire system. It enhances the effect of any other colour used along with

it. It gives strength and encourages inner creativity.

Black

Black stands for protection, grounding and strength. It activates the feminine energies of the

body. It has a calming effect, especially for emotionally vulnerable individuals. Black should

be used sparingly, and always in a combination with other colours, especially white. When

used along with white, it balances the polarities of the individual, and gives a sense of calm

and control.

Brown


NITK, Surathkal


11/20

Seminar Report2012

Colour Therapy

It stands for grounding and establishing. It calms and grounds emotions, and facilitates an

objective view of life. It helps in awakening common sense and discrimination. It can be

effectively used to manage hyperactivity in children and adults alike.

While putting colour therapy to use, one must remember that no colour is inherently

good or bad. It is the use of the appropriate colour at the required time that brings forth

results. Overuse of any colour will certainly cause imbalance. For example, while using

yellow may improve your childs concentration and retention power, too much of it will

cause diarrhea. So, always consult a trained therapist and use the colours as directed, to get

the best results.

7. How Does Colour Therapy Work?

Colour therapy has two basic methods by which it can affect our body. It can function

directly on our physical body or but it can also work more subtly on the different energetics

of the body as well, for example through the aura.

7.1 Physical Effects

Each colour has its properties and so different colours can achieve different effects on the

same area of the body, but the same colour can also have different effects on different areas

of the body as well. All of these effects originate from the specific properties belonging to

that colour. For example green tends to promote balance, if it is shone on the thymus gland it

will aid in the regulation of T cell production. Whereas if it is shone on a tumor it tends to

have an adverse effect, the tumor grows. Colours are a very powerful treatment medium

especially if used directly in the form of coloured light, and as such they can have very

powerful results if used in the appropriate way. If misused however, they can have side-

effects.

7.2 Energetic Effects

Colour therapy also works at a more subtle level - the energetic system of the human

body. There are many forms and theories about how this system works. It should be noted


NITK, Surathkal


12/20

Seminar Report2012

Colour Therapy

that none of these diagrams are mathematically or physically accurate; they are just a

diagrammatic representation.

7.2.1 Weak Magnetic Field Theory

This is the older of the two theories and it believes that there is a minute magnetic

field around the human body. Thus the body can be considered a large, yet ironically very

weak magnet. The North Pole is at the head and the South Pole at the feet. This theory is

believed to be true because of a simple physical law - a wire carrying a current of electricity

induces a magnetic field around itself. The human body of course doesn't have wires running

through it, but it does have nerves which are active all the time in one way or another. Nerves

quite literally pass an electronic impulse along their fibers to the target cells. This postulated

magnetic field is probably far more complex than what appears in this diagram which serves

only as a rough guide.

Also in the human body a myriad of various chemical reactions occur by means of

electron transfer; in simple terms any movement of electrons is considered electricity.

Considering the scale at which these reactions occur (atomic or molecular at best) there

wouldn't be much electricity generated, however since a very large number of reactions

occur, together they can generate a decent amount of electron movement and therefore also a

weak magnetic field. So when we move into areas of high electromagnetic noise (computer

crammed offices with neon lights, living under power lines etc.) it affects us negatively

because it disrupts these magnetic fields which are inherent to our bodies. Just as those

magnetic fields are created by electron movement from biochemical reactions, the reverse

can also happen. If the magnetic fields are altered strongly enough the biochemical reactions

creating the magnetic fields of our bodies will be disrupted as well.


NITK, Surathkal


13/20

Seminar Report2012

Colour Therapy

Colour therapy aids in the regulation of these various biochemical reactions and thus

it will also heal the magnetic fields surrounding us. The rays of light emanating from the

bioptron can help directly in aiding the alteration of this magnetic field due to the nature of

light - an interpolation of electronic and magnetic radiation.

7.2.2 Biophoton Theory

This theory is much newer and extensive research, mostly in Germany, is being

carried out to prove it. This theory pulls upon a similar physics principle to the one above, but

slightly different. It also has to do with the electrons in our bodies; however it is not about

electron transfer between atoms, but within an atom. When a chemical reaction occurs it is awell known fact that there is a transfer of energy between reactants. Usually in these systems

a dynamic equilibrium exists which allows for the control of such mechanisms by means of

precise energy preservation. Control mechanisms exist within our bodies to harness the

energy released from one reactant (chemical) and make sure that as little as possible of this

energy is lost to the surroundings, while transferring it to the appropriate target. For example

our body uses glucose as a primary fuel source; however glucose isn't simply combusted into

energy because there would be a large amount of energy wastage involved. Instead our body


NITK, Surathkal


14/20

Seminar Report2012

Colour Therapy

organizes glucose breakdown into 2 major cycles with a total of about 18 steps through which

the energy from the initial glucose molecule is removed. During processes such as oxidative

phosphorylation (glucose breakdown) the energy which is being carried around can excite the

electrons orbiting around certain atoms by giving them this energy to carry. As they carry the

energy the electrons can begin to spin faster around the nucleus. As they do so, they will

begin to occupy a slightly different orbital - the path along which the electrons travel. When

the atoms reach their destination, they will offload the energy they are carrying, as this is

done the excited electron from before will lose its extra energy and will begin to spin slower,

thereby reoccupying its old orbital. However as it goes through this process of returning back

down to its initial state it will release a tiny amount of radiation. The wavelength and

frequency of this radiation will depend on which orbital it was on to begin with and which

orbital it occupied when it was excited. This radiation is usually light. These emissions are

very low energy, meaning that the light emitted is very weak.


NITK, Surathkal


15/20

Seminar Report2012

Colour Therapy

Sometimes discrepancies occur in the steps of various chemical reactions mentioned

before and some of the steps may be skipped for various reasons. This is coupled with a slight

loss of energy which can go on to the surrounding areas to cause biophoton emissions. The

place where arguably the most reactions occur is near the DNA helix inside the nucleus of a

cell. It is constantly unraveled and wound back up again to reveal the necessary genetic

information for the growth and functioning of the cell. Thus many scientists have postulated

that the cellular nucleus is the source of most biophoton emission.

Free radicals are also thought to be a source of biophotons. These are chemicals

which are very reactive and very willing to give away one of their electrons or take away an

electron from their surroundings. Either way free radicals change the chemical composition

of their surroundings. This might not sound too serious, but a single electron in the wrong

place can cripple the glucose metabolism of a cell very severely. Thus free radicals are said to

be unstable, since their actions cannot be predicted, other than knowing that they are always

negative. Since free radicals are quite unstable they can release energy very often, in the form

of biophotonic radiation. Thus cells which are sick, dying or otherwise impaired have a

higher biophoton emission reading than healthy normally functioning cells.

8. DIAGNOSIS OF DISEASES

Man is not merely the material body of flesh and bones. There is a subtle body

enveloping this physical body of matter. We have two, dense and subtle bodies. The subtle

body controls all the movements and actions of the physical body. For developing the

capabilities of therapists; experts have determined different points of this subtle body, which

can be seen only by those who have aroused their power of witnessing this subtle body of

lights. When a therapist 1ooks at the patients he comes to know that which of the colours is in

excess or is deficient in the patient. He also knows that whether the cause of disease is

unbalancing of feelings and emotions or it is because of external effects like germs etc.

Complicated concepts, negative feelings, and destructive acts and deeds produce spots in the

subtle body of lights, which later on are displayed upon the physical body as wounds and

boils that provide a sanctuary to germs and foreign bodies.

If the body fluids become diluted than their original condition, then this state is

termed as anemia or low blood pressure. And if the fluids become thick or absorb excess heat

then this state is termed as high blood pressure. Bitterness in the body fluids indicates excess


NITK, Surathkal


16/20

Seminar Report2012

Colour Therapy

production of bile. When the heat of the body fluids exceeds a limit and a burnt effect is

produced, murkiness increases in the body system. Malfunctioning of spleen that results in

default of blood production is because of the murky fluids. If the viscidity is produced in the

body fluids, the phlegmatic diseases find their way in the body system. And if such particles

find their way in the body fluids that consume the red blood corpuscles then this state is

termed as cancer. When a therapist looks at a patient, he immediately notices the deficiency

or excess of colour in the patient. He also comes to know that the excess or the deficiency of

a colour or colours is because of the immoderate feelings and emotions or it is due to some

external factors like germs, viruses or bacteria. Negative feelings, perverted emotions,

complex thinking and impure thoughts result in destructive attitudes, which cause spots and

patches in the subtle body of lights. These spots of the astral body become wounds and boils

of the physical body allowing passage to germs of every kind into the body.

One of the methods to determine the needed colour in the body is to study the colour

of eyeballs, nails and the skin of the patient. For instance if a patient requires red colour , his

eyeballs and nails would have bluish tinge, his skin would appear to be off colour and have

dark shade under the eyes, whereas, deficiency of the blue would be indicated from redness

in the eyes, nails and the skin. Sometimes a particular colour seems to exceed in a particular

organ or at a single point in the body e.g. boils rashes, soar eyes, headache and paralysis etc.

but actually this colour dominates the entire body system and the natural immune system

draws our attention towards its excess by exhibiting its symptoms on one or two parts of the

body. In such a case therapist is required to also keep this thing into his consideration.

9. METHODS OF TREATMENT

Treatment using colours is so simple that even a man of common understanding can

makes good use of this therapeutic system. It takes less time at an affordable cost, almost

none to get well. The following methods can be used for treating diseases under this

therapeutic system. Exposing body intermittently in the sunlight for brief intervals. Spectrum

of the sunlight contains all the colours in it, and exposure of the body before the sunlight

provides it a chance to absorb the colour required by it. Colours of the light are the actual

remedy for the diseases.


NITK, Surathkal


17/20

Seminar Report2012

Colour Therapy

Have a glass bottle of the required colour. After cleansing it with hot water, fill it with

distilled water or with water that has been sterilized by boiling. Let one fourth of the

bottle remain empty. If the bottleof the required colour is not available take an

ordinary transparent glass bottle and enwrap it in a cellophane paper of requiredcolour in such a manner the bottle is covered from all sides using transparent adhesive

tape.

Place this bottle in the sunlight, keeping it on a wooden surface for four to six hours.

The best time to treat water with coloured rays is from 10am til14 pm.

Accumulation of droplets in the empty surface of the bottle is an indication that the

water has been charged enough.

Keep the bottle properly secured with cork or stopper. If bottle of many colours are tobe charged, do not place the close to another so that no bottle be over shadowed with

a bottle or a different colour.

Dosage: For adults: 2-ounce chromatized water, for children: 1-ounce. For babies: l-

table spoon and for infants one teaspoon

In treatment of the diseases under this therapeutic system, chromatized oil has also proved

very effective. The method of preparing chromatized oil is to charge the flax or linseed oil

under the sunrays for forty days in glass bottles of required colours or 200 hrs under theartificial light. For massaging the affected part of the body, this oil is used but for using on

the head or as hair oil the sesame seed oil charged with sunrays using the glass bottles of sky

blue colour is recommended. This oil is very effective to nullify the effects of heat in the

blood, hearing of voices and sparks or black spots seen flying before the eyes.

10. CONCLUSION

Besides making the world around us beautiful, colours do have another great

significance as they have an impact on our health and wellbeing. Colour therapy identifies the

impacts of colours on our body for the diagnosis of diseases as well as for the curing of

ailments. Though this therapy method is not a recent one, considerable investigations and

studies are yet to be carried out on this subject. Even though this therapeutic method is not a

scientifically proved one, there are cases of successful recoveries reported in scientific

journals. Though at present this method cannot be used as a substitute for the conventional

treatment techniques, with advanced scientific research on this topic the possibility for such a

replacement can never be ruled out in the future.
