What is Color?
Color is light and energy. Color is visible because it reflects, through all kinds of particles. Color is the most important part of our life. What we wear, what is surroundings, everything affects us.
e.g. Winter in a foreign country, light is very low. People feels depression more in the winter
An Introduction to Color Therapy
Color therapy and healing is a type of healing that uses the spectrum of light and color to affect a person’s mental and physical health. Each color has a specific frequency, that can be used to affect the energy within our bodies.
As we know that light enters through our eyes, it’s important to note that light can also enter through our skin too. Given the unique frequencies and vibrations of different colors, people believe that specific colors enter in the body can activate hormones causing chemical reactions in our body, which influence emotion and enable the body to heal.
Colors can affect people with emotional troubles. For example,
color blue: has a calming effect which leads in lower blood pressure,
color red : increase blood pressure, confidence
color green: used to relax people who are emotionally unbalanced
color yellow: used to help heal people who might be suffering from depression.
Apart from that, there are various techniques to know people’s aura. According to aura I am healing people.
A Brief History of Color Therapy
It’s no mystery that the sun and its source of light (or lack thereof), can have a profound effect on us. Thousands of years ago Egypt, Greece and China are known for their expertise into color healing and therapy.

So as art therapist, I am asking several questions to you.
Does color really affect you?
If you wear red how do you feel?
If you reach to the place surrounded by trees and grass how do you feel?
If you see the blue ocean how do you feel?
