COLOR AND SOUND THERAPY

 

Color therapy, or chromotherapy, is the use of color in various forms for the purpose of creating balance and health in the human system. Color therapy paired with sound can help in balancing the two hemispheres of the brain after going through trauma. Enhanced perception and psychological and physiological responsiveness has been found when multiple senses are stimulated simultaneously [1,6].

Problem:  Alternate methods to treat stress or anxiety without medication or to improve mood and focus are not made easily accessible for those who experience debilitating effects of stress.

Possible Solutions:

  • Introduce light to treat stress or anxiety without medication
  • Use of light to stimulate multiple senses and change dysfunctional emotions and cognitions to become more functional
  • Provide a lighting system that triggers the release of neurochemicals with colored light
  • Introduce a color changing rain chandelier, which can help in creating a calm and tranquil environment, by using subtle insertions of color and sound
