Color therapy is a form of holistic healing that has been used for thousands of years to treat physical and emotional issues.
Also known as chromotherapy, color therapy is regaining popularity today. According to ayurveda, the 5,000 year old traditional medicine of India, every color has certain healing energies. By using color therapy techniques when you are decorating your home or office, you bring those healing energies into your space and enhance or diminish certain qualities.

Color Therapy and the Seven Chakras
Color therapy is based on the seven colors of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.
According to ayurveda, there are also seven energy centers in the body, each on e associated with one of the colors. If a person’s chakra is weak or out of balance, the color associated with it will help strengthen it.
