Colour Therapy

As the rays of the sun radiate down upon earth, different colours are formed by the reflection of the light from the various elements. Each colour of the spectrum has its own properties in the form of its wavelength and frequency.

Colour	Wavelength	Frequency
VIOLET	380 - 440 nm	700 - 790 thz
INDIGO	440 - 485 nm	670 - 700 thz
BLUE	485 - 500 nm	670 - 600 thz
GREEN	500 - 565 nm	580 - 530 thz
YELLOW	565 - 590 nm	530 - 510 thz
ORANGE	590 - 625 nm	510 - 480 thz
RED	625 - 740 nm	480 - 405 thz

Frequency = Terahertz (one trillion cycles per second)
Wavelength = Nanometers (One meter equals 1,000,000,000 nanometers. One nanometer is about the length of ten atoms in a row)

We are all beings of energy. We vibrate at different frequencies just as the colours do. By recognising this we are able to use colour to assist us in healing.

Colour affects us physically, emotionally and psychologically. Below is a table listing the effects of the colours on us:

Colour	Qualities	Uses
BLACK	Pure Magnetic Receptive Consuming Neutral	Important in visualisation and also used for intensifying other colours
WHITE	Confidence Assertiveness Truth Mental clarity Open mindedness	Excellent to wear when one has mental negativity or lacks faith in oneself. Also allows your creative energy to radiate outwards
BLUE	Calm Power Protection	Slow vibration increases exhalation and is very good for asthma sufferers or hyper active people to wear. Also increases fluidity of speech and self expression.
VIOLET/PURPLE	Transformative Liberating Self loving Appreciative	Releases self doubt, criticism, guilt and stubbornness. Also focuses on the exhalation and relaxes. Good to wear when going through major life changes.
GREEN	Inspiring Nurturing Healing Birth Acceptance Integration	Healing is often a process of letting go of one thing in order for something else to manifest. Green helps by acting as a balancing agent between all vibratory influences around us as well as the breath. Also improves the immune system.
YELLOW/GOLD	Stimulating Humble Happiness Mental strength	Yellow stimulates the inhalation of breath and should not be worn by asthma sufferers or hyper active people. Good to use in cases of lethargy and laziness to encourage enthusiasm
ORANGE	Emotional strength Self respect Creativity	Give us the freedom to be ourselves and to respect our own boundaries and requirements and, by the same token, having respect for the boundaries of others.
RED	Passion Human love Sexuality Warmth Self confidence Generosity	Triggers strong emotions and passions and generates a sense of reconciliation between our emotions and their expression through our physical behaviour.
PINK	Gentleness Empathy Surrender of love	Enhances our feeling of warmth and openness and is good to use when developing a healthy interest into our feelings without threat

Colours are effective as a therapy when worn, used in coloured light bulbs, light boxes and crystals.

This is a very condensed description of colour therapy and I would recommend further reading on the topic. There are various courses being offered and lots of websites to browse.
