Colour Therapy - Red
Recently, I have found a book -”Colour Therapy”, written by K.S.Azeemi. In this blog post I am sharing some interesting facts I found in this book on how colours are being used in therapy and how they affect the human body.
Precisely this blog post is dedicated to Red colour. Other colours to be described in the following post.
Have you noticed, that subconsciously at different stages of our life we prefer/surround ourselves with some favoutite colours and kind of evoid another ones? We choose the apparel/ home decor items, wall colours, tableware etc. of some preferable colour schemes/ and even of some pure colours …We think that they just look great. But in reality - every colour generates a different feeling than the others...
In this book (“Colour Therapy”) - you may find many interesting answers. I found it as *pdf file available for reading at auracolor.files.wordpress.com
Mixed Media Collage, Kurt Schwitters. One of my favourite artists…I like these cheerful shades of red and pale pink he has applied in this collage.
Red is related with courage, enthusiasm, liking, love and affection. Red is the colour which stimulates emotions, stirs senses, and evokes passions. In its positive aspect, Red stimulates strength, self-confidence, joy and love. It also stimulates blood circulation. Red may help if you suffer of low blood pressure, anemia or often feel sleepy…
Acording to the experiments described in this book, when a person is supplied with red colour, the pituitary gland becomes activated resulting adrenalin inclusion in the blood. It stimulates the sensory nerves and improves the sences of smell, sight, hearing and taste. Hemoglobin is also being increased with the red rays and water charged with red rays…

I have few paintings with predominant Red and this is one of them..
The people having Red colour in moderate quantity are helpful for the others, like to apply their potentials to the maximum and care about their family and friends.
People having Red as their dominating colour live an overall healthy life. But since they can not control their emotions about good food and other things they tend to gain excess weight.
There are also some contraindications for using Red colour, such as: emotional disturbances, hypertension, excitable temperament, fever, neuritis, inflamation etc.
Treatment using colours is so simple that even a man of common understanding can use this therapeutic system. lt takes less time at an affordable cost, almost none to get well.
The following methods can be used for treating diseases by colours.
1. Exposing body intermittently in the sunlight for brief intervals. Spectrum of the sunlight contains all the colours in it.
2. Colours of the light are the actual remedy for the diseases: a) Have a glass bottle of the required colour. After cleansing it with hot water, fill it with distilled water or boiled water. Let one fourth of the bottle remain empty.
b) Place this bottle in the sunlight, keeping it on a wooden surface for four to six hours. The best time to treat water with coloured rays is from l0am till 4pm. c) Accumulation of droplets in the empty surface o f the bottle is an indication that the water has been charged enough… Keep the bottle properly secured with cork or stopper.
d) In treatment of the diseases under this therapeutic system Chromatized oil has also proved very effective. The method of preparing Chrornatized oil you can find in this book “Colour Therapy” at page 92.
You can find more info about colour therapy methods of treatment as well as list of diseases colour therapy deals with in this book mentioned above.
