You may have a favorite color or several of them. You may have specific songs that you turn on when you’re happy, sad, mad, or motivated. You might prefer to wake up early to get work done or stay up late to work when the rest of the world has gone to sleep.
But why? What influences these decisions and what effect are they having on our moods, our lives, and our overall health?
Color, Light, and Sound therapies are growing in popularity throughout the entire world. And though some countries, populations, and communities have been using these forms of alternative treatments for centuries, many of us are just now beginning to hear about them.
In this article, we’ll take a closer look at each form of therapy, as well as the benefits that can come from these types of treatment plans.
The Power of Color Therapy
This type of therapy is defined as using colors based on their frequencies to promote health and wellness, while also having a positive effect on physical, mental, and emotional conditions. It’s formed around the belief that specific colors can influence the energy frequencies within us, promoting positive changes.
Each of the seven colors that make up light has its own “area of expertise” per se and is used accordingly.
- Red – used to stimulate, energize, and strengthen. It can promote courage, will power, and even sexual power.
- Orange – promotes healing in the spleen, pancreas, adrenals, and kidneys, and is often used to treat depression.
- Yellow – stimulates the brain and can be used to promote healing within your stomach, intestines, and liver.
- Green – encourages balance, healing, and growth. It’s also used to treat the nervous system, heart, and blood pressure issues.
- Blue – has the power to calm, reduce fevers, and promote restful sleep.
- Indigo – inspires and broadens the mind, influences your senses (sight, hearing, and smell), and helps to eliminate fears and inhibitions.
- Violet – promotes healing of mental and nervous disorders, tranquility, and works to provide a soothing environment
Color therapy uses a combination of colors and their frequencies to treat your specific needs, encouraging overall health and wellness.
Some facilities employ Color Therapy Equipment that can help dial in specific frequencies and automatically combine the colors into a visual color show that can leave you feeling refreshed and reenergized.
The Power of Light Therapy
This specific type of treatment is commonly used as a mood booster or to help those suffering from forms of seasonal depression. It relies on the speeds at which light moves to influence frequencies within our body that promote healing and wellness and often utilizes a device called a Light Box that mimics natural sunlight.
The light frequencies are absorbed both by our eyes and our skin, providing an energizing feeling, alleviating stress, and helping us to fight against depression, sleep disorders, and other similar conditions.
Light Therapy has been shown to improve:
- Emotional well-being
- Brain function
- Hormonal imbalances
- Sleep cycles
- Anxiety-related issues
- Seasonal affective disorder (SAD)
- And more
If you find yourself being affected by fall or winter or have been told that you suffer from SAD (seasonal affective disorder) this might be the type of treatment you want to seek out. There are many professionals all around the world that offer treatment programs and can provide you with answers to your questions.
The Power of Sound Therapy
As discussed in our previous blog {link}, sound therapy is believed to work in two different ways: by sending vibrations through our body that can influence fibers and our pain perception and by affecting our brainwaves through binaural beats.
This type of therapy can be used to treat a range of afflictions across all areas of the body: physical, emotional, and mental. It’s often found to be a very powerful form of relief for those suffering from anxiety, stress, and chronic pain.
The types of instruments used in sound therapy are often:
- Didgeridoos
- Singing Bowls
- Quartz Crystal Bowls
- Chanting
- Tuning Forks
- Binaural Beats
Many apps, musician engineers, and trained physicians use a combination of sounds to create a customized treatment plan for you. This powerful technique can not only promote balance and harmony but can also reduce or relieve pain from a variety of sources.
Conclusion
Recently there has been a growing trend of combining all three forms for the ultimate healing and restorative experience. Studies have shown that this type of treatment can be incredibly effective in both short and long-term uses. If you’re looking for safe and alternative forms of treatment or relief, this may be the right direction for you to move in.
