Rainbow Meditation is what I have chosen to call this exercise. You can click here to be led through the exercise. Find a comfortable place, relax, get loose and remember to breathe....When I did this exercise, I felt very relaxed, like I belonged right where I was. The exercise starts with red in the base of the spine, orange below the belly button, yellow in the upper abdomen, green over the chest, teal blue in the neck area, deep blue from the head and dark purple from the crown of the head. All of theses colors are related in the mind to certain traits.
My favorite color is green, which was connected to emotions. I was really interested in this because I am very guided by my emotions. Red is my least favorite color. It stands for being grounded, which I am not...I could not even think of a red object when the voice asked me too!
Overall, the exercise was very nice. I have been noticing lately how much colors affect what I feel. This was a great exercise to promote a sense of conectedness and practice the skill of relaxation related to mental images using colors. Try it out!
