Just as the light of the sun plays an important role in maintaining general well-being, colored light can be used to support and stimulate specific areas of the body’s health. Each different color has very specific effects energetically and physically when introduced to human energy fields. For example, green reduces tension and stimulates building of muscles and tissues, while red increases vitality and builds platelets and hemoglobin. After assessing the current state of an individual, specific colors can be used to strengthen physiological processes that are weak and lacking. Unlike traditional medical techniques which can be harsh and invasive, color therapy is gentle and easily accepted into the body’s energy field.
