Healing with Colours & Crystals

Colour has a profound effect on how we react to our surroundings.
If we wake up with gray skies and rain for several days, it can be depressing.
When its bright blue sky outside, the green leaves on the trees, the sunlight brings out the colours of the flowers, our moods begin to change as a result.
All is is due to the way we perceive colours through our eyes.
Light frequencies also have real effects on our brain, influencing our internal chemistry. The give of sight and the ability to enjoy colour is crucial to the world around us. Everyday, thanks to the Sun we are literally bathed in full spectrum light, that is the colour we can see, plus invisible rays, such as ultraviolet and infrared.
Scientific studies has show that we need to be exposed daylight for at least 20mins each day to maintain an ideal internal balance of the body's chemistry. Lack of exposure to full daylight can have detrimental effects on the health. Color healing directs light in different spectrum colours directly onto or into the body. Application of specific colours can bring about effective rebalancing of the body's energies.
For almost a century, science has shown that everything is made of energy - a rock, a tree, a river, animal, a human being.
The same building blocks created the earth and all its creatures on it.
The only difference is how those blocks are assembled.
Therefore, since we are made of the similar elements, it is possible to have a connection, with everything around us and crystals are another part of that picture.
Some people, the Native Americans for example still believe that everything is alive, even rocks, because of energy that resonates in them.
If you are drawn to a certain crystal, it is because it resonates with you.
Light is energy. Light projected through crystalline structures can be even more powerful, as used in some lasers in which Rubies & Sapphires are used to creat highly concentrated beams of light partials.
Crystals reflect different colours because of their mineral composition; they attract us because their colour, shape and beauty.
In this way it can be said that the mineral kingdom communicates with us.
Over thousands of years of handling, wearing and use, different crystals and minerals have become associated with particular healing effect.
Crystal experiences are very individual. In the same way, different ray of colours have different effects. If you are particularly drawn to, for example green stones, it is likely that you need green energy in your life perhaps some healing around your emotions.
Choosing crystals based on colours is a simple way to begin exploring the mineral kingdom and to find out more about yourself and you energy needs.
