What is Color Therapy? Part 4: Yellow - The Solar Plexus Chakra and Yellow Color Therapy Decorating Ideas

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.

In this post we will take a deeper look into the color yellow, The Solar Plexus Chakra, how yellow color therapy can effect the mind and body, and how to integrate yellow color therapy into your home decorating.

Yellow and The Solar Plexus Chakra

Yellow is another warm, bright color. It’s associated with the solar plexus chakra and if that chakra is imbalanced it promotes introversion, fear and anxiety. Adding yellow combats those emotions, uplifting the spirit and building confidence. It also stimulates concentration and mental activity, relieves depression and enhances learning abilities.

Physically, yellow is used to treat headaches, skin conditions, rheumatism, paralysis and indigestion. Too much yellow could encourage hyperactivity. Balance it with shades of blue.

Yellow is a great welcoming color to use in entryways, living rooms or other social areas.
