What is Colour Therapy?
You wake up in the morning and start your own colour therapy by selecting your clothes for the day. Colour tells you to stop at traffic lights and when to go. Scientists put a man in a red room and his blood pressure went up, in the blue room his blood pressure went down. We are Colour Human Beings, we get all our light and energy from the sun, this light through a prism shows different vibrations in the form of colours, red being the lowest vibration. We take into our bodies this constant stream of colours all our lives. When we are stressed, tired or sick we are depleted in certain colours. A Colour Therapist is able to find out which colours you need to bring you back into balance.

What are Body Colours or Chakras?
Each part of your body is colour coded, for example the heart area is a green area. People with heart problems whether physical or emotional will always pick green coloured bottles. However, energy frequencies are changing on the planet and all our colours have changed so that heart issues can now also show up as pink and pale lilac – Colourworks therapists works with all the old and new body colours that can diagnose, heal and empower us to a healthier and wealthier lifestyle. Body Colours are referred to as Chakras in the Complementary Medicine field. Colour Therapists not only look at your physical body colours but are able to look at the environment you live and work in and offer powerful insights to bringing balance into your home and business. The ‘Chakra’ webpage has a diagram that will show you the different body colours.

What can Colour do for me?
Colour can be used as personal and business support. For example: if you need to ask for a raise in salary you can consciously pick blue to wear for the meeting: blue is the colour of authority and communication. Blue is also a calming colour and painting your office or changing staff uniforms to the right shade of blue can dramatically change the group behaviour in a hectic environment. At home, bathing in the blue oil bottle will lead to peaceful sleep, especially for those suffering from nightmares. Choosing the right colour for your logo and marketing is also important as the colour sends a silent message out that says who you are and what you do – Blue logos are good for accountants as it says to the client that their finances are being handled by a strong and organised company. Read WebPages ‘Workshops’ & ‘Readings’ for listing of the types of workshops and services on offer by Colourworks to businesses and healers.

How can Colourworks products help me?
Humans have through the ages bathed in natural oils for relaxing and cleansing their bodies. The body tends to resist healing or changes as it settles into comfort zones where you become used to pains and aches over a period of time. If you say you want to lose weight for example, your body goes into shock and you suddenly find yourself eating more than before – your body does not like you changing your patterns. Using colour therapy bath oils your body does not resist as the messages are transmitted via colours and smells instead of through words that the rational mind might otherwise block. Essential oils have the ability to soak through the skin and transport the colour to areas where healing is needed. Colourworks oils can be used as body oil and in the shower. The recommended use is to bath with a capful of oil over a 3 week period.

The Essence Spritzers are sprayed around your body or on pulse points. They work in your energy field clearing stress and negativity before they manifest in your body as a dis-ease. Kirlian photography has shown how it can detect cancer in the energy field (also called the Aura) 6 months before the medical profession can detect it physically in the body. By using spritzers you help to keep your aura clear of negativity. Colourworks Therapists can do a consultation via email or phone to help you select the right colour product.
