Colour Illuminated

Colour is a huge part of our lives, it is as innate to us as breathing. But did you know that colour is also a form of energy, and that in the right colours, we can increase our energy and use colour as a healing modality? Colour has been used to heal since ancient times as far back as 360B.C. If we can acknowledge the healing properties of invisible colour rays such as infra red or ultra violet, why not the ones we can see?

Colour plays an enormous role in how we express ourselves and has a profound affect on our mood and behavior. Going back to our pre-historic roots, although our sense of smell was our most important form of input, sight was our most essential means of survival. Studies have shown colour to be the first thing we register in our observations and is the primary basis for all our experiences. Angela Wright founder of Colour Affects explains,

“When light strikes the human eye, the wavelengths do so in different ways, influencing our perceptions. In the retina, they are converted into electrical impulses that pass to the hypothalamus, the part of the brain governing our hormones and our endocrine system. Although we are unaware of it, our eyes and our bodies are constantly adapting to these wavelengths of light”.

Colour is light- which is the source of life, our unconscious response to light is a fundamental component of our survival. Light consists of seven colour energies: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. Each colour corresponds to different areas of our body and influences us differently emotionally, physically, mentally, and spiritually. By learning how color psychology influences us, we can successfully use color to help boost our energy when required. Colour is a wonderful gift in our world that has the remarkable power to help us lead a more balanced life.
