Spiritual-Physical
Color Treatments
These treatments are based on the work of an
authority on chromotherapy.
We have combined here the various uses of color from
visualization and affirmation to charged water and light
treatments – using either a lamp or direct sunlight.
These appear well worth your study and personal
experimentation.
The
application of Red:
The universal breathing affirmation which is to
precede this, said by the patient as well as by the healer,
can be accompanied by a visualization of the dawn or sunset
on snowy mountain peaks as a warm or peachy pink spreading
over the entire earth and all its inhabitants, the
individual inhaling this pink color and exhaling the
radiance and goodwill far over the horizon.
Without goodwill the healing will not be permanent.
The universal affirmation is:
O
Thou radiant spirit of divine love
Enter
my inner consciousness;
O
Thou spirit of divine love, dwell in my heart
That
love may make radiant
Each
thought, word, deed,
Ever
shining as my brother’s beacon
Radiating
joy, peace, power!
When the colored light treatment is given, the healer
first of all surrounds the patient with the universal peachy
tint mentally given. He
asks the patient to cooperate by using the universal
affirmation followed by the one for the red ray.
This is as follows:
O
Ruby rays, flow through me,
Flow
through me, and energize
My
bloodstream, my bloodstream.
O
Ruby Rays, stimulate activity, activity;
And
instill iron stamina, staunch stamina.
O
Ruby Rays, recharge my will
Why
Thy goodwill,
For
health and joy
For
me and all I will fulfill.
After the patient has cooperated in this way, he is
placed on the couch under a sheet and the red light radiated
upon the soles of his feet from a distance of about 6
inches. If the
treatment is for anemia a second color, orange,
is radiated upon the spleen area for 30 minutes.
On sunny days the noon sun power will be especially
beneficial, focussing it on the soles of his feet through a
red screen. At
the same time the patient is to breathe in the ruby rays.

The treatment begins on the soles of the feet, then
the lamp or the red screen is gradually moved to the ankles,
the calves, the knees, the thighs and to the coccygeal
center or chakra, remaining from 5 to 10 minutes on each
place.
To end the treatment green or blue is
radiated on the patient for 10 minutes so there may be no
undesirable or irritating effects from the red.
When the beam of red is focused on the body the red
rays decompose the salt crystals in the organism, causing
ions to form. The
minute ions are the carriers of electromagnetic energy in
the body. The
red light splits the ferric salt crystal into iron and salt
and the blood absorbs the iron while the salt is discharged
from the body which is thus strengthened.
The color treatment for paralysis is somewhat
different from the above.
Paralysis is usually due to shock or frustration of
some kind wherein the patient is mentally or emotionally
confused and, not knowing what step to take next, refuses to
take any and the motor nerves cease to give orders.
The patient needs some new and absorbing interest.
Red gives an urge to action, strengthens will power
and courage. The
adjustment of the mental attitude seems to take place more
readily if the patient is unaware of its relation to the
cure. Yellow
is often helpful in treating the mentality in such a case.
The patient is also given purple solarized water to
drink between meals.
The purple or magenta ray is played
upon the patient lying face down on the couch, starting at
the coccygeal chakra. After
15 minutes on this spot, the light is moved slowly up the
spine to a position back of the solar plexus taking about 5
minutes to do it. Then
the purple color is focused on the soles of the feet for 15
minutes. If the
legs are paralyzed focus the purple light on each sciatic
nerve, playing it upon the back of the legs in an upward
direction.
Next change to the red light, radiating it on
the knees, shines, and feet for another 10 minutes.
Indigo is to be used next, 5 minutes on the
solar plexus, then moved slowly to the throat center where
it is held for 5 minutes and then changed to the blue
light for 10 minutes.
A complete cure will take 3 months or longer.
The red-magenta rays can be discontinued in 5
to 8 weeks, depending upon the severity of the case, as an
overdose of the red, which stimulates adrenaline, would be
harmful.
In infantile paralysis the ruby shower should
be employed by red light treatment and rubbing with the red
salt bag.

Orange
In giving the orange color
treatment the patient is asked to cooperate by visualizing
the sun lighting and warming the earth and its children; at
the same time breathing in its wisdom and light.
The red part of the ray is sent to all parts of the
physical body and the yellow to the mind, the red
giving strength and energy and the yellow making the
mind dynamic, alert and good-natured.
Good nature toward all is essential in permanent
health.
Accompanying this visualization the following
affirmation is to be said:
O
freeing orange, O buoyant rays,
Float
in me, float in me,
Salving,
restoring conscious will,
Conscious
energy,
Above
all limits of bodily mind.
O
warming orange, dispel all chills
And
kindred ills; in me health thrills.
O
lifting orange, transmuting rays,
Waken,
unfold, my budding powers.
Bring
me wisdom’s bright new powers,
Bright
new powers.
*
In practicing this orange color breathing
affirmation, breath from the pit of the stomach feeling as
if the breath were coming from the feet.
Breathe through the nostrils.
Yellow
The visualization for the universal affirmation
before receiving the yellow light treatment consists in
seeing golden currents of sun-radiant air flowing within the
earth and enriching all the peoples of the world; see this
golden light flowing into your body permeating every part of
it. Do this
first thing in the morning before an open window while
taking about 20 deep breaths.
Following is the mantra to use with the yellow color
breathing:
O
yellow beams of gold, enrich my intelligence,
Strengthen
thy sun-radiance, aged-wisdom
In
youth unfold
Empower
my solar-plexus to digest, assimilate,
Inhaling
golden atoms of joy,
All
fear abate.
O saffron rays of wisdom prana
Flow
in golden currency feeding cells
With
cosmic manna through my entirety.

Yellow rays carry positive magnetic currents
strengthening the nerves and awakening and vitalizing the
mentality and reasoning faculties.
They stimulate the third chakra at the solar plexus
which controls the digestive processes.
It has a cleansing and eliminative action on liver,
intestines and skin.
*
Diseases which are benefited by yellow color
treatment include digestive and liver ailments, diabetes and
skin diseases.
Green
*
The color breathing for green should be accompanied
by the visualization of early morning light shimmering on
dewy grass, the refreshing green of leaves after rain, the
sun sparkling on shining trees at noon, green shadows at
dusk dancing through the leaves, nature’s prana.
Accompany this with the green ray affirmation:
O
Ray of emerald symphony, sustain, upbuild
my wayward heart;
Its strings attune in symphony,
teach me to
do my poiseful part
O
chlorophyllic builder true, heart-force in
fields and men renew
From thee the tempo true is
bidden, O strengthen
thou the beat, the rhythm.
The
pulse of brotherhood regain bring forth
the honey, harbored, hidden
In human hearts now freely given,
sweet food
in all, for all sustain.
Blue
*
In the color breathing for blue visualize a cloudless
bright blue sky of an early summer morning being breathed
into the lungs and absorbed by every eager pore in the body,
and think of yourself as sailing high aloft above the earth
and all the minute activities upon it, absorbed in the
consciousness of blue. Then
give the affirmation:
O
tranquil ray of sapphire blue, calm thou
my mind
In solace new, in solace new.
Quench thou all fevers in
coolness new,
refreshing dew.
Spiritual-Physical
Color Treatments, page 5
Tone thou my speech, O ray of
blue,
And make it true, and make it
true.
Help me to learn, O ray of blue
To rest in you, to rest in you.
Help me to learn, O ray of blue,
To speak anew, to speak anew.
Help me to learn, O ray of blue,
To sing in you, to sing in you.
Indigo
Before
giving the indigo ray affirmation in the color breathing,
visualize the deep indigo of the desert midnight sky and
drink deeply of it. Or
imagine yourself in the deep indigo of a mountain lake, like
an indigo trout inhabiting the lake, drinking deeply of the
indigo waters which flow and ripple over your entire body
and mind.
Then breathing rhythmically as you inhale and exhale
the indigo, use this affirmation:
O
deep rays of indigo blue, bathe my eyes with
tender hue
Give
me sight to see anew, give me light for
seeing true.
O
deep rays of indigo blue, bathe my ears with
deeper hue
Tone
my ears to hear anew, tune my mind to
hearing true.
O
deep rays of indigo blue, bring me in
devotion’s hours
The balm, the purity in mental
showers
Release new fragrance from brain
flowers
Sweeping all brown leaves away.
Indigo is a great purifier of the blood stream and
likewise controls the psychic currents of the subtle bodies.
It combines the deep blue of devotion and clear
thought with a faint trace of stabilizing red.
Great changes take place under its influence on all
levels of being. It
is electric, cooling and astringent and can induce local or
total insensibility. But
it enables the individual to see and understand more deeply.
*
It governs the chakra in the center of the forehead
called the spiritual eye, controlling the pineal gland and
vision, hearing and smelling on the physical and higher
planes. Its
complementary color is yellow with which it has an affinity
in regard to the mind.

Violet
*
For the color breathing of this hue visualize the
desert at sunset being overspread with a mist of pure
amethyst changing to deep violet as dusk deepens.
There is complete silence everywhere. Breathe
it in reverently feeling it penetrating every nerve, fiber
and cell, nourishing and uplifting all spiritual life
within.
Then use this affirmation while inhaling and exhaling
deeply:
O
zenith ray of violet power
Cleanse my dark blood with purple
shower,
Soothe thou my nerves with
passions lower
Bring forth true inspiration’s
flower.
O amethyst ray of spirit’s
radiance,
Strike thou the chord of my
soul’s cadence
Bring forth the poetry, music
fragrance
One art uniting – none in
vagrancy.
O
violet blaze in meditation’s bower,
Flash me keen intuition’s
power,
Dull mental shades no more shall
dower
Thy mystic petalled lotus flower
The
humble modest violet slight
Shows arrogance, power in simple
might,
Guides egos from dark paths of
night
In service selfless endless
light.

White
White is the arch transmuter
embracing all the colors and lifting the powers of any one
of them to their utmost perfection.
But it can only be used in its spiritualizing sense.
The visualization for the in-breathing of the white
light requires the still of every restless thought and
feeling a profound calm encompassing the consciousness.
While breathing deeply feel yourself lifting the
power and energy within you to meet the descending white
light, and see it multiplying and surrounding you in a white
wall of protection. If
you are the healer, place the patient in the center of this
all-encompassing white light, and then extend it to include
all in the world.

The affirmation for the White light:
O dazzling white, pure ray
serene, uplift my soul
to meet thy gleam;
Fill every atom with power
supreme, make ill-thought
life seem but a dream.
O
respondent Father, seven rays in One,
Teach
me to blaze my hidden sun,
Love
merged with strength, no more diverse,
Encompass
the mighty universe.
White is not a color ray in the healing sense
although it magnifies the power of each, but its appreciable
activity operates on the higher planes.
Its power manifests everywhere, as Dr. Babbitt says,
“the whole world, mineral, vegetable and animal is ever
being transformed into new and beautiful growths, forms and
colors under its magic touch, showing its almost omnific
power.” It is
the white light of Christ consciousness which produces the
healings at such places as
