The 5 Healing Colors
Adapted from The Secret Teachings of the Tao Te Ching, by Mantak Chia and Tao Huang (Inner Traditions, 2005).
According to Chinese medicine, the “Five Healing Colors” can purify and heal all the pathways in the body, and the colors are traditionally used to harmonize the organs. When you visualize these universal energetic color forces, the organs become purified.
Even if you don’t have organs in stress, this is a wonderfully cleansing and preventative exercise for your whole body:
Use this guided meditation using any one of the organs using the appropriate color:
1. Sit calmly but alertly.
2. Pay attention to the calm place behind your mid-brow.
3. Think of something you love, and relax.
4. Bring your attention to the organ in need of attention.
5. Picture the organ, feeling the love you experienced in #3.
6. Picture the organ as a rose that is the color required, and imagine the rose slowly opening.
Repeat until the color radiates through and from the organ.
7. Breath out the colored light
Blue: The healing color of the kidneys.
Red: The healing color of the heart.
Green: The healing color of the liver.
White: The healing color of the lungs.
Yellow: The healing color of the spleen.

Color Healing is one of the most popular methods for treating the Root or Base Chakra which is located at the base of the spine and groin and is associated with adrenals, kidneys, muscles and blood. This Chakra relates to our most basic connection with life and survival instincts. This Chakra is associated with qualities like patience, stability and confidence etc. The color representing the root chakra is red. Red is the color needed when one needs energy and confidence or want to feel sexy and desirable.

Picture this:
A closed mind can heal nothing.
The joy of an open mind is knowing that anything is possible.
The 'power' of colour has been proven and accepted in even the most surprising places. Think of the experiments, and then the follow-ups of painting rooms soft pink to soothe violent behaviours. Think of how we dress: dark conservative colours for business and serious occasions; red to exude power and confidence; pink to bring out femininity and sensuality (or on a male: self-confidence, fun, and openess); bright and wild combinations to make us feel... well, tropical and on vacation!
Medical practitioners are not there to heal us. I believe they are there to teach and guide us to heal ourselves. I know I could sure use more knowledge and guidance in most every area of my life!
