Why Practice With Healing Colors?

In qigong and Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Five Elements provide a way of understanding relationships among the body, emotions, seasons, organ systems, and the natural world. Each element is also traditionally associated with a particular color.

This course brings those relationships into meditation. Rather than simply studying Five Element theory, you’ll work with color visualization, breath, attention, and qigong practices to experience these traditional associations in a more personal way.

As you move through the course, you’ll explore the colors connected with each organ system and then expand into practices involving the Six Directions and Five Planets. The result is a fascinating progression from foundational Five Element concepts to deeper traditional qigong meditation practices.

You can take this course on its own, although Qigong Healing Sounds provides a helpful foundation for the Five Element and organ relationships used throughout the lessons.

Common Questions

What is this course about?

This course introduces qigong healing colors through the Five Element framework of Traditional Chinese Medicine. You’ll explore the traditional relationships among color, the organ systems, emotions, and the Five Elements while experiencing guided color visualization and meditation practices.

Do I need to practice all five healing colors?

No. You can work with the colors individually, move through all five, or return to a particular meditation that interests you. As you become familiar with the practices, you may find your own rhythm for incorporating them into your meditation routine.

What if I experience warmth or other sensations during a meditation?

People experience visualization and meditation differently. Some participants describe warmth, relaxation, vivid imagery, or other sensations, while others notice very little physically. There is no particular sensation you need to create for the practice to be meaningful.

Is the course free?

Do I need experience with Traditional Chinese Medicine or qigong?

No. The course introduces the concepts you need along the way. You can begin without previous experience with qigong, meditation, or Traditional Chinese Medicine.

How often can I return to the healing color meditations?

As often as you like. In fact, this is a course that can become richer through repetition. Rather than treating the lessons as something to complete once, you can revisit individual colors and meditations as your understanding of the Five Elements develops.

All cells in living organisms release light particles known as "biophotons." These biophoton emissions emanate from both internal organs and the outer tissues of the body, contributing to the formation of the body's auric field. The interaction between light and the body's tissues, as well as the internal organs, yields significant healing effects, particularly when facilitated by the application of qigong healing colors. The activation of muscles or nerves through medical qigong light therapy further amplifies the intensity of biophoton emissions. In today's session, you will explore how healing colors serve as a user-friendly tool to counteract the adverse impacts of contemporary living.

The ancient Taoists, by observing and contemplating how the universe functions, developed a theory to explain the balance of supportive and controlling units making up the universe. They developed Five Element theory to describe the characteristics of these dynamic units. In this theory, the life force, and all its expressions, comes into and goes out of existence through the interplay of the five elements. It serves as the foundation of physical, psychological, and emotional healing from a Chinese medicine perspective. This lesson explores the Five Elements and how they relate to your body. You will also discover how healing colors connect with Five Element theory.

Within the lungs, the qi of heaven (air) merges with the qi of earth (nutrition), giving rise to the vitalizing qi essential for human life. Analogous to a minister overseeing state affairs and defining territorial boundaries, the lung governs the connection between the internal and external, establishing limits and safeguarding boundaries. With precision and expertise, the lung's rhythmic expansion and contraction gather, blend, and propel qi, instilling a sense of order and rhythm.

Your Kidneys, Adrenals, and Urinary Bladder are the organs in the Kidney System. You can see why they connect to the Water Element. The kidney system consolidates and stores the qi that initiates and keeps life growing. Like a minister of the interior who conserves natural resources, stockpiling essential raw materials for use in times of growth, crisis, or transition, the kidney preserves what is essential the essence of human life. As the well of vitality and endurance, the kidney is the germ of intellect, creativity, and houses your instinct to procreate and survive.

The Fire Element is linked to the Heart and Small Intestine. The heart embodies the pure essence of fire, radiating warmth and light. This warmth corresponds to efficient circulation, while the light symbolizes consciousness. Under stress, the warmth can either dissipate or transform into flames, and the light may lose its clarity. A well-functioning heart system results in a serene mind, strong memory, clear senses, restful sleep, and a healthy complexion. The nature of the heart is to be approachable, responsive, and tranquil, akin to a monarch ruling through the spread of joy, maintenance of peace, and establishment of communication, rather than through force.

The Spleen System comprises the Spleen, Stomach, and Pancreas. Similar to a minister of agriculture overseeing the production and distribution of farm resources, the spleen plays a crucial role in supplying the nourishment that sustains both the body and spirit. Consequently, it aids the liver and heart in maintaining the integrity of blood vessels, nourishing the blood, and ensuring its proper viscosity for smooth flow. This contributes to the stability of the mind and emotions. Additionally, the spleen assists the lung and kidney by generating essence and distributing sufficient moisture and lubrication for the skin and mucous membranes.

In this lesson you will gather qi from the six directions in a calming meditation. The main purpose of this meditation is twofold: firstly, to cleanse the body of pathogenic factors, and secondly, to cultivate and absorb environmental Qi. Energy from each direction (North, South, East, West, Heaven, and Earth) possesses distinct power and vibration, and is associated with a specific color. Each vibration and color work to stimulate the energy field of one of the five major Yin organs through the body's connection with Heaven and Earth, represented by the Taiji Pole.
