Red therapy
Posted: Fri Jun 24, 2016 9:06 am
Red therapy is an idea I use to bring energy, pizzaz, get up 'n go into my daily life. It also helps ground me. This color therapy can be done with any color, as long as it's associations are specifically meaningful to the goal. The idea is to inundate myself with life giving color, and balance it with dashes of the opposite color on a color wheel. Balance is important.
I started out with a few things on-hand: red candles, a red votive holder, and a can of cherry red spray paint. I painted a small cauldron, a wooden serving tray to carry all the items, and a storage box. Red glitter was liberally used. I had on hand a few sparkling, red ornaments, bits and bobs, bottles and jars. If an object couldn't take paint I attached a string of red beads on red cord. A red bandana became the altar cloth. Red stones such as red Jasper, carnelian, garnet, & both red & green aventurine are strategically placed around the house.
In my kitchen I pulled out a red coffee mug and plate and red/green striped towels. Anything red was put to use and given pride of place. I added red glitter to the sand in my incense burner, added a red throw pillow on the sofa, and used a red pen for daily journaling. I drink V8 juice and scatter tomatoes in my green salads. Wear red socks, red jewelry.
It's a perpetual, on going spell and has been a safe and quite effective energy boost.
