Luna Online Home Studies

If you have heard about people who can see auras and tell you about the colours surrounding you then it can be quite frustrating when you cannot see anything. An aura is our energy field which surrounds every single living thing, even plants.  Now this is the good news. Everyone can learn to see auras. Its like anything else you want to learn you just need a bit of practice and of course some guidance.

We can learn to see our own aura by looking directly in the mirror. Once you have practiced the techniques in our free course you will soon be on your way to seeing different colours. Different colours mean different things and it is not so much the colour appearing within the aura which reflects either a negative or positive condition but the shade. The pastel and softer shades are more likely to indicate a positive condition whereas darker or dirty shades will reflect a more negative condition.

How can working with colour heal?

We are surrounded by colour and of course for those of you have downloaded our free aura course will be aware how important it is to keep both our aura and chakras balanced and protect them from negative energy which can build up. Healing with colour is about getting in touch with our spiritual nature and bringing about harmony which in turn will help you to heal yourself and others.  Colour therapy also works well with Crystal therapy and Angel Therapy as all are connected.

Colour Breathing

This is an essential part to learn when using colour therapy as this is how we cleanse our auras and chakras on the deepest level. Its a bit like giving your house a good spring clean instead of just a quick flick with a duster.  Learning how to do this correctly can help change your surroundings and attract the right energy to yourself or your client.

Colour and Food

We are all aware that eating a balanced and healthy diet can improve our health, however eating certain coloured foods and avoiding others can be essential to your wellbeing and in treating certain ailments.

Colour and Seasons

Learning which season your colour personality is can also be of great benefit. If you are a spring person for instance then the colours you choose to wear and the foods you eat may vary from a winter personality.

Our professional Colour Therapy Course covers all this and more and starts with a colour test. You will learn how to use scarves, crystals and oils and how to do a full chakra reading on yourself or client.

Now we are aproaching the year 2012 learning to heal and developing your skills as a spriritual healer are becoming more and more important.  Holistic healing has always been and always will be the only true path to heal. The more we rely on medicines and drugs the further away we are from our natural healing abilities which we all possess. Some people are drawn to crystals, others to oils and massage, however with colour therapy you will learn how simple healing can be and how to use the power of your mind.

Professional Colour Therapy Training Course - Diploma Level (no previous qualifications or experience required - just your own in built natural talent which we will help to re-discover)

All our holistic courses are accredited by iphm and ensure that you are getting the best possible online training. We are also affiliated with the IWOL wheel of colour.

Reiki and Colour Therapy

Reiki works well with other therapies and especially when it is practised with colour therapy to create balance and harmony in the client. Colours have a profound effect especially on our emotions. Have you ever felt drawn to wearing a certain jumper or top that you feel drawn to, it can well be the colour, which you will intuitively wish to wear when we sense our body needs this colour. As you now know the chakras relate to certain colours. For instance the root chakra is red, which is the colour of passion. If this is out of balance you could lack enthusiasm for life or lack energy. Using colour in this area will greatly help. For more information on this subject see our Colour Therapy Course, written by a specialist on this subject

THE COLOURS AND THEIR MEANINGS

Red
Red has more personal associations than any other colour. Recognised as a stimulant, red is inherently exciting and the amount of red is directly related to the level of energy perceived.
A red person is full of energy, strong and physically active and can tend to be thin or muscular as the result of an active metabolism. Red people are generally out-going, gregarious and love life.
How the colour red affects us mentally and physically:
•    Increases enthusiasm
•    Stimulates energy
•    Encourages action and confidence
•    Gives a sense of protection from fears and anxiety

On the negative side, red people may have a tendency to be headstrong, impatient, bad tempered and become easily heated.  Red people need to watch their blood pressure and also watch out for problems such as boils, rashes and other skin diseases.
Balancing colour:  Blue for softness and calmness.
Orange
Orange, a close relative of red, sparks more controversy than any other hue. There is usually a strong positive or negative association to orange and pure orange generally elicits a stronger “love it” or “hate it” response than other colours. Fun and flamboyant, orange radiates warmth and energy.  Orange people are just as vital as red people but are more practically oriented. They are lively and outgoing, cheerful and joyous. Orange people also tend to be practical and make good designers, engineers and architects.
How the colour orange affects us mentally and physically:
•    Stimulates activity
•    Stimulates appetite
•    Encourages socialisation

Orange people, however, can suffer from stress and a battered immune system and they need to watch their energy levels.
Balancing colour:  Indigo for inner calm and intuition.
Yellow
Yellow is the colour of the sun and shines with optimism, enlightenment and happiness. Shades of golden yellow carry the promise of a positive future and instills optimism and energy as well as sparking creative thoughts.  Yellow people are good communicators and capable of logical, clear thinking.
How the colour yellow effects us mentally and physically:
•    Mentally stimulating
•    Stimulates the nervous system
•    Activates memory
•    Encourages communication

Yellow people tend to place more importance on the mind than on the body, the negative aspect of this being that they may neglect to take proper exercise and often have a poor diet. This could result in digestive problems, in particular relating to the liver and spleen.
Balancing colour: Violet is a good balancing colour as this colour brings wisdom.
Green
Green is considered to be the colour of peace and harmony. The natural greens, from forest to lime, are seen as tranquil and refreshing, with a natural balance of cool and warm (blue and yellow) undertones.  Green people are neither extrovert or introvert and strive to find balance and harmony in their life.  They tend to be close to nature and love the countryside, animals and children. A green person would also identify strongly with the healing arts.
How green effects us physically and mentally:
•    Soothing
•    Relaxing mentally as well as physically
•    Helps alleviate depression, nervousness and anxiety
•    Offiers a sense of renewal, self-control and harmony

Green people tend not to like taking action and therefore may deliberate on anything they do, finding it hard to make decisions. They may also be possessive, either in relationships or with monetary wealth.

Balancing colour:  Rose Pink, the colour of universal love.

Blue
Blue is the overwhelming “favourite colour”. Blue is seen as trustworthy, dependable and committed.  The colour of sky and of the ocean, blue is perceived as a constant in our lives. It invokes rest and can cause the body to produce chemicals that are calming. Blue people tend to be gentle and peaceful by nature and are passive and introverted, liking to be surrounded by a loving, harmonious atmosphere.  This caring aspect is why blue is also the colour of the medical profession. Blue is the least “gender specific” colour, having equal appeal to both men and women.
Not all blues are warm and sedate, however. Electric or brilliant blues become dynamic and dramatic, engaging colours that express exhilaration. Some shades or the overuse of blue may come across as cold or uncaring.
How the colour blue effects us physically and mentally:
•    Calming and sedate
•    Cooling
•    Aids intuition

Tending to be introverted, blue people need to watch that they do not become too withdrawn and isolated. They can suffer from depression and may find it difficult to communicate their needs and feelings to others.  This may manifest in the form of throat related problems and may also suffer from low blood pressure.

Balancing colours:  Yellow and orange would be good choices as yellow aids communication while orange brings joy and warmth in relationships.

Deep Blue/Indigo
Indigo or deep blue people are similar in many ways to blue people being strong intellectually, but are also in touch with their intuition and higher self. They generally love music and the arts and with their knowledge comes power. They can also be very idealistic and many great reformers work on the Indigo ray.  Indigo and deep blue people are very loyal and truthful. However, they must make sure they do not abuse their power, working for the good of others and not themselves.
Balancing colour:  Orange brings practicality and earthing qualities.
Violet/Purple
Purple embodies the balance of red stimulation and blue calm.  This dichotomy can cause unrest or uneasiness unless the undertone is clearly defined, at which point the purple takes on the characteristics of its undertone. A sense of mystic and royal qualities, purple people are creative or eccentric types and are often musicians, artists or writers.
Violet is the most intuitive of colours and people choosing this colour are likely to be seeking spiritual development. Violet people are often called to serve and many psychics and healers operate under the violet ray. Because they are so sensitive, violet people can suffer from mental and nervouse disorders.
How the colour purple or violet effects us mentally and physically:
•    Uplifting
•    Calming to mind and nerves
•    Offers a sense of spirituality
•    Encourages creativity

Balancing colour: Yellow for wisdom and to boost personal power.

COLOUR THERAPY - Home Study Diploma Course

Colour therapy is a non-invasive therapy that makes use of the healing energy contained within visible rays of colour.  It is a complementary therapy, which works in a subtle way with many other types of treatment, although it can be used on its own whist still giving excellent results.

Colour can be used to balance energy, aid creativity and learning, release blocks and help alleviate physical, emotional and mental conditions. Colour therapists encourage people to understand why they need certain colours and show them how to put these colours to beneficial use in order to promote optimum health. Colour therapy is used throughout the world as a complementary treatment for a wide range of illnesses: asthma, arthritis, eating disorders, skin diseases, digestive ailments, blood and circulation problems, fevers, rheumatism, shock, relief of pain and as part of the treatment for serious illnesses such as paralysis, multiple sclerosis, M.E, cancers and Aids. It is also used to great effect in the treatment of nervous and mental disorders and depression.

Wherever it has been possible Luna Online Home Studies has incorporated pictures, diagrams and exercises to help you understand the subject and practice of Colour T,

A course of colour therapy treatments begins with a diagnosis to find the real root of the problem. This is usually psychosomatic in origin, manifesting itself in a physical illness. We can counsel the client using coloured oils, colour cards and art therapy. This is where the completion of a client treatment card can be really useful and can be updated after each visit to record how the client is feeling (a sample card is included at the end of Part 3 of this course). Once the therapist is confident regarding the root of the problem, treatments can begin which may include a combination of the following:
•    Chromotherapy (light therapy)
•    Colour acupuncture /colour reflexology
•    Colour related diet
•    Bach flower remedies /essential oils
•    Art and music therapy
•    Silk scarf treatment
•   Crystal treatments
•    Colour breathing and meditation

The therapist will also discuss with the client how to use colour in dress as well as how to create a supportive and balanced environment in the home and at work. This allows the patient home back-up using colour to reinforce his or her strengths and abilities.

You will learn this and much more in our Professional Training Accredtied Colour Therapy Course - Enrol today

This 3 part course will teach you how to use this truly holistic therapy, which dates back thousands of years. This course aims to enhance and also to help stimulate our body’s own healing process through the art of colour. Colour therapy is based on the ancient art of using colour and light to treat disease.

The human body absorbs light that is made up of the colour spectrum and each colour in the spectrum has a frequency, wavelength and energy associated with it. The symptoms of disease are a sign that there is a shortage or improper utilization of colour and light in the organs and cells of the human body. This is due to many factors, such as our lifestyle, stress or too little of a particular colour frequency in our enegy system. Studies show that the colour of fruit and vegetables indicate their individual health-promoting benefits.

Complimentary colours tend to look balanced and are colours opposite to each other on the colour wheel.

This course will teach you how that by altering colours that surround us, it is possible to enhance health and well-being. Colour is simply light of varying wavelengths and as such is a form of energy. This light energy affects all living cells. Used in the right way colour can have a profound effect on all creation. Colour therapy can be used for any problem whether physical, mental, emotional or spiritual for specific problems as well as an over all relaxation therapy. Colour therapy can also be used with great effect alongside other holistic therapies. It especially compliments crystal therapy.

The frequency of a wave is determined by the number of complete waves, or wavelengths that pass a point each second. The colour red has a frequency of around 430 trillion vibrations a second, whereas violet has a much higher frequency, so each violet wave would pass a given point much quicker than the colour red.

The air we breathe is essential to life. When we are born we take in our first breath and when we die we breathe in our last. Air is permeated with forces of light and colour energy so we can breathe this vital force into us. When we exhale our diaphragm relaxes, inducing relaxation throughout the whole body. When we are upset or in shock, we are told to breathe deeply as this chanages our energies: breathing is nourishment.
The majority of us only ever breathe shallowly but it would be of great benefit to us if we became more conscious of our breathing. The early morning is a good time to take in some deep breaths, preferably by an open window.
You may have noticed that you tend to breathe more deeply when you are by the sea. Water calms our emotions and is purifying. The calm sea makes us breathe in time to the rhythms of the lapping waves. The rougher sea contains tiny globes of light and electricity which, when we breathe in, energises us.
There are ways we can maximise our breathing through practicing different exercises. Universal breathing is a yoga breathing technique that helps us maximise the intake of prana, which is pure light energy.
EXERCISE
1.    Close your left nostril and breathe in deeply with your right to the count of 4.
2.    Hold your breath for the count of 16
3.    Close your right nostril and breathe out of your left nostril to the count of 8.
Universal breathing can be used with colour, thinking of its attributes as you breathe.
Colour breathing uses the power of thought vibrations reinforced by the effects of colour vibrations to act with positive effect on our etheric bodies. This helps correct imbalances and energises areas of energy which may be depleted. Colour affirmations also help us gain the most from positive thinking.

Balancing colour: Yellow for wisdom and to boost personal power.

COLOUR DISLIKES AND COLOUR TESTS
Our short-term attractions relate to a particular stage we are going through at the time and here it is particularly useful to consider the colours we do not like and choose to reject.  If you do not like:
•    Red     –     shows frustration, anger or defeat
•    Orange     –     suffering from exhaustion, mental or physical fatigue
•    Yellow     –     suffering disappointments, feeling powerless
•    Green     –     mental disturbance, loneliness, rejection
•    Blue     –    anxiety or fear, loss of wealth or status, sense of             failure
•    Purple     –    pretentious, conceited, vain, can avoid close             relationships
•    Brown    –    desire to stand out as an individual or to stand on
your own feet
•    Black    –    desire to be in control and not relinquish personal             power

Each colour has both positive and negative aspects. If a person displays negative traits of a colour, this colour energy is blocked and its chakra centre needs to be cleared. To balance energy in a chakra, first use the colour rejected and then its complimentary colour to draw in the opposite, positive traits. You will be taught different ways of clearing these blockages in further lessons in this course. In the meantime, it is important that you are able to diagnose a problem and know which colour energies you or an individual needs.
As an example, a woman who went to a colour therapist for treatment found it very difficult to speak her true feelings for fear of rejection.  She had developed a lump on her thyroid and obviously had a blockage in the throat or blue area. This needed to be cleared and she was then encouraged to communicate and build up her self-esteem. Yellow aids communication and orange helps draw warm loving relationships to oneself.
The following list shows some of the negative qualitites of each colour:

Blockages and Negative Qualities of Colours
Red: Inability to accept life’s responsibilities. Ruthless, pushy, quick-tempered, stubborn.
Orange: Fearful, timid, shy, lack of interest in life. Problems with sexuality and relationships.
Yellow: Jealousy, envy, fear, emotions and living by patterns learned in childhood. Feelings of lack of power, obsessional behaviour, disoriented, muddle-headed.
Green: Insecurity, needing to be loved and protected. Feeling that life is unfair, unjust. Victim mentality.
Turquoise: Confusion, turmoil, inability to move through your own boundaries and limitations. Destructive thought forms.
Blue: Difficult to express oneself, motivational problems. Head in the clouds, daydreaming and not in touch with the real world.
Violet: Fears and phobias, relying too heavily on the intellect and not on your intuition. Doubting and apologising for oneself.
Magenta: Denying own needs, martyrdom and self-sacrifice, inferiority complex, trying to control others.
From the previous section on ‘The Colours and their Meanings’, choose those colours that you think would balance these negative traits.
