Color has been associated with many practical uses, including it's ability to change moods in people, reflect their personality, set the pace for business and educational environments and create a healing setting for the sick.
Aura-Soma uses color to heal the soul. The therapy uses bottles of dual-colored liquids, called Equilibrium bottles, that contain essential oils, extracts of plants and stones. The properties of the oils balance the body and support healing of mind, body and spirit/soul.
The book lays out the practice very clearly and is easy to understand. As I went through the material, I could see how the application of the oils and colors could sooth, relax and promot healing.
Included is a history of this alternative therapy, how it developed, and how it is an ever developing system. It appears to be able to individualize it's application to meet the needs of the client.
While it may be a curiosity to many folks, the book explains yet another useful therapy in our arsenal of alternative therapies for whole body/mind/soul healing.
The full color pages examine the colors, their use and their applications. These bottles are specifically blended and uniform. This makes it easy for the practitioner to identify and apply to each client's specific need. The colors are blended to address specific ailments, emotional responses or spiritual needs. They are identified by the practitioner and the client is given bottles that will help the client. Some of these blends correspond to the Chakra colors, others to plant or mineral material. The duality of the colors in the bottles represent the upper conscious mind and the lower represents the unconscious.
There is much more to this practice than I have mentioned here. I thought it interesting, and considering that color is used in many healing processes, this system takes it to another level and is very interesting in it's use. I think if you find color healing something that attracts you, this system may be something you may want to add to augment your practice. boudica
