Colors are very powerful and have been used for healing, to change moods and for other things. Even during Ancient Egyptian times, the Egyptians used colors to heal others. Colors have been part of many cultures and are always around. Chromotherapy is a way to use light therapy or colorology as a treatment of healing.
Some health organizations use colors to spread messages and to help people be aware. They use purple to show attention to Alzheimer’s and pink with Breast Cancer awareness. People will paint rooms in certain colors to be soothing and bright colors to bring in energies. Colors are used for advertising and other things.
