Discover the Power of Colour Healing

Colour surrounds us every day, influencing our emotions, attitudes, and overall well-being — often more than we realise.  At Charms Of Light®, we recognise that colour is not just visual; it permeates our language, culture, and health.  From describing our physical state to reflecting our spiritual experiences, colour plays a vital role in our lives.  This is the essence of colour healing.

 

How Colour Can Heal

We are instinctively drawn to certain colours at different times, often the ones our mind, body, or spirit most needs.  Colours can be used intentionally to support physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual healing, helping restore balance and harmony.  If you’re unsure which colours suit you best, our guides can help.  They highlight the connections between colours and the chakras, as well as the birthstone colours for each month.  Use these as a guide, but always trust your intuition — your most comfortable colours are usually the ones your body and spirit need most.

Frequently Asked Questions about Colour Healing & Crystals

 

What is colour healing?

Colour healing is the practice of using colours to influence your physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being.  Each colour carries specific energies that can help restore balance and harmony in your life.  From jewellery and crystals to your surroundings, incorporating the right colours can support healing and personal growth.
 

Do crystals have healing colours?

Yes!  Crystals come in a wide range of colours, each associated with different energies and healing properties.  For example, red crystals can support vitality and grounding, while blue crystals may enhance communication and calmness.  Using crystals according to their colour allows you to align with their natural energies for mind, body, and spirit wellness.
 

How do I use crystals for colour healing?

Crystals can be used in several ways to benefit from their colour energies:

• Wear them as jewellery to keep their energy close to you throughout the day.
• Place them in your environment — on your desk, bedside, or meditation space — to influence your surroundings.
• Meditate with them by holding or focusing on the crystal to balance your energy centres or chakras.
• Combine colours with intention to address specific areas of well-being, such as emotional balance, spiritual clarity, or physical vitality.
   

Which colour is best for me?

Your intuition is the best guide.  You may naturally feel drawn to a particular colour at any given time.  You can also use chakra associations or birthstone colours as a guide to help you select the crystals and jewellery that resonate with your current needs.
 

Can I combine multiple colours for healing?

Absolutely.  Combining crystals of different colours can support multiple areas of well-being simultaneously.  For example, pairing green and pink crystals can encourage both heart-centred love and compassion, while yellow and blue may enhance confidence and clear communication.
