Colours have specific vibratory rates which impact the body for healing. There are number of ways that colours may be used:  -  Fruits and vegetables of specific colours may be eaten. -  Water can be charged with the desired colour by placing a sheet of coloured plastic around a glass jar of water or by placing a sheet of coloured glass in front of the glass jar and then placing this in the sun for a few hours. Drinking this water infuses the body with the colour energy and vibration. -  Wear the desired colour as clothing. -  Colour breathing - look at the desired colour and then deep breath the colour into your body and cells. -  Use a Colour Therapy Lamp and shine the desired colour onto your body. (“Healing for the Age for Enlightenment” by Stanley Burroughs has instructions on how to build your own colour lamp. I'm not sure if its still in print.)

Assists vomiting when stomach contains unsuitable matter (emetic). Relieves flatulence or gas in the digestive tract, areas (carminative). Bone builder; corrects bone softness, rickets, by calcium effect. Tissue stimulant, decongestant. Yellow Attributes: Stimulates the motor nervous system which energizes the muscles. Nerve builder for sensory and motor systems. Stimulates the lymphatic system.  Mild tissue stimulant. Stimulates the intestines, pancreas, and production of digestive fluids; bile, hydrochloric acid, etc., (digestant, cholagogue). Increases bowel movements (cathartic). Spleen depressant; equilibrator in melancholia, balances circulation. Expels worms and parasites (anthelmintic). Lemon Attributes: Produces a favorable change in the processes of nutrition and repair in persistent disorders (chronic  alterative).  Dissolves blood clots. Promotes coughing to expel mucus and fluids from the lungs and air passages (expectorant). Bone builder, by phosphorus effect. Brain stimulant. Thymus builder and stimulant. Mildly stimulates digestive system (laxative). Equilibrator after extended use of ultra-green. Green Attributes: Cerebral equilibrator. Physical equilibrator. Pituitary stimulant and equilibrator. Stimulates the rebuilding of muscles and tissues. Destroys microorganisms, germs, bacteria; cleanses and prevents decay.  (germicide, bactericide,disinfectant, antiseptic). Turquoise Attributes: Produces a favorable change in the processes of nutrition and repair in recent disorders. (acute alterative). Brain depressant. Skin tonic.  Rebuilds burned skin (antipyrotic). Equilibrator after extended use of infra-green tonations. Blue Attributes: Relieves itching, and irritation of abraded surfaces (antipruritic, demulcent). Encourages perspiration  (diaphoretic). Mild sedative. Reduces or removes fever and inflammation. (febrifuge, antipyretic, antiphlogistic). Pineal stimulant; builds vitality. Indigo Attributes: Parathyroid builder and stimulant. Thyroid depressant. Respiratory depressant. Causes contraction, controls abscesses, lessens secretions, arrests discharges and hemorrhages (astringent, antipyic, antiemetic, hemostatic). Promotes the production of phagocytes which destroy harmful microorganisms, bacteria, germs, etc. Mammary depressant reduces milk production, (lactifuge). Eases suffering, lessens excitement and over-activity (sedative). Violet Attributes: Spleen builder and stimulant. Decreases muscular activity, including heart muscles. Lymphatic glands depressant, Pancreas depressant. Decreases activity of the nervous systems (tranquilizer). Promotes production of leucocytes, white (Violet) blood cells. Purple Attributes: Kidney and adrenal depressant. Decreases sensitivity to pain. Induces relaxation and sleep (soporific). Increases functional activity of the veins. Lowers blood pressure by three effects: Dilates blood vessels (vasodilator). Reduces the heart rate. Decreases activity of the kidneys and adrenals. Lowers body temperature. Controls fever and high blood pressure in malaria and recurrent fevers (antimalarial). Emotional and reproductive system depressant. Builds sex powers by decreasing sensitivity and desire when excessive (anaphrodisiac). Moderates blood pressure between heart and lungs. Controls lung hemorrhages; some cases may respond better to Magenta or Scarlet (use heart/respiration ratio as a guide).  When in doubt try Purple first.  The forgoing approach also applies to cases of dry coughing (non-productive of phlegm). Magenta Attributes: Emotional balancer, and auric builder. Builds and equilibrates the functional activity of: Heart (cardiotonic). Blood circulatory system. Kidneys and adrenals. Reproductive system. Scarlet Attributes: Kidney and adrenal stimulant. General stimulant.  Increases functional activity of the arteries. Raises blood pressure by three effects: Constricts blood vessels (vasoconstrictor). Increases heart rate. Stimulates activity of the kidneys and adrenals. Accelerates fetal expulsion at time of delivery (ecbolic). Emotional stimulant.  Builds sex powers by increasing sensitivity and desire when deficient (aphrodisiac). Stimulates the reproductive system, and menstrual function (emmenogogue). All information provided is for educational purposes only.
