Colour therapy  (or chromotherapy) is an alternative remedy that uses colour  and light to treat physical or mental health by balancing the body’s energy centres, also known chakras. Ever hear Someone say They loved Colouring-in with a certain colour on a particular day, or wearing a particular colour for a particular mood? This concept dates back to ancient Egyptians who used sun-activated solarium rooms constructed with coloured glass for therapeutic purposes. Imagine having a sun-activated solarium with coloured glass just to play around with Your Chakras! I’m in!

The Hare Krishna Maha Mantra, said over and over, as designed, is reiterating to the mind. As Our Brains have plasticity, They can heal physically. THE HKMM retunes the mind and gives it incidental pathway healing. Microaggressions, or routine slights, can trigger psychological stress, distress, and trauma. “It’s not the incident that causes stress, distress, or trauma; it’s the helplessness in the face of the incident.” One of the most common coping mechanisms is anger, which fuels riots, vandalism, and other destructive behaviours.
