Colours (Colors) - An Introduction
Author: Jennifer McCormack

Colour therapy is only now just starting to gain its much desired respect and confidence. Here's a nice simple (and cheap) way to benefit from colour therapy.

If you need some perking up and you find that you could do with a good dose of orange to revitalise and replenish your soul (and not too many of us have an orange sweater or even a shirt in the cupboard), buy some orange cellophane paper, wrap it around a glass of chilled water and set it in the sun, allow it to stand for 10 minutes or until you feel that the warmth of the sun (and your chosen healing colour) have penetrated the water and then simply drink from the glass, as you drink concentrate on the orange warmth entering and healing your body.

Below you will find colours and their meanings... you can always combine your colours to help you achieve your goals.

The Colour Green...
