Using Color to Change Your Emotional State
Trauma Support / by LightDancer

...See more I want to share an easy and interesting way to change your emotional state if you are feeling uncomfortable...anxious or upset or down. Color is one of our first experiences as an infant...basically an infant just experiences their visual world as blobs of color, which they spend the first year of their life making sense and meaning of. Because of this, we each have a unique, subconscious color map that we can use to communicate a new emotional state to our entire being.  So, if you are feeling an uncomfortable feeling...anxious, down, upset, etc...ask yourself this question:                                                  What color is this feeling?                       (Bonus points if you can also locate that feeling in your body!)   The second question is this:                                            What color do I need/want instead? You don't have to know why you want yellow or blue or green instead! This is just the way your subconscious has created meaning from many different experiences.  Now for the fun part. Take a few minutes to imagine that a beautiful light, just the color you want, is filling your body. Just move that light through your body, to every spot in your body and every cell. Imagine each atom and cell and organ and thought and feeling coming into agreement with that color. You can even imagine that the light fills your body and continues to expand until it is an impenetrable bubble around you. Try to spend 5 minutes moving this light through your body.  How do you feel?  Did the exercise "work" for you?  Could you use this during your normal day?
