Color Essencing & Light Therapeutics; SPE Case Studies; PEMF & More!
Hello Everyone,
Information, energy and matter are the three essential components of both the universe and the living human organism.
As I have been discussing in the last few weeks, I have added color therapy into dynamics of Spiritual PhytoEssencing (SPE). My development of SPE began 30 years ago with a singular focus on essential oils. Then about 6 years ago, I incorporated the use of gemstone essences into SPE. Gemstones have the potential to store and transmit vital information.
Information is most commonly defined as facts or data; knowledge obtained from investigation, instruction or study. In other words, it has a type of physicality. However, when it comes to health and disease, we need to adopt a broader interpretation of the term.
The idea that information is a quasi-material component of the universe needs to be supplanted with the understanding that information is neither matter nor energy. While, within the organism, it often does dovetail with the vital force (chi) which transports it via the acupoint meridians, information and materiality are conceptually distinct. In fact, information is in some sense is more fundamental than materiality.
Information comes from an infinite number of sources. Assuming that an organism is able to receive and interpret the signals emanating from a specific source, those signals are capable of directly or indirectly exerting an impact on a dynamic system.
Three Carriers and Transmitters of Healing Information in SPE:
The three vehicles of information from the natural world and the cosmos utilized in the art of Spiritual PhytoEssencing (SPE) are: essential oils, gemstone essences and color light waves.
Essential Oils
Anthroposophy founder Rudolf Steiner states: “Matter is most spiritual in the perfume of the plant…When the spirit most closely approaches the physical earth, then we have the perception of fragrance.”
Anthroposophical science teaches that plants produce fragrance as a means of absorbing “the soul” of the sun which contains the essence of spirit. Fragrance formation represents an interaction between terrestrial and cosmic forces, and it’s used by the plant as a means of uniting with the spiritual essence contained within sunbeams.
Gemstone Essences
The art of Spiritual PhytoEssencing employs specially prepared gemstone essences to reduce psychical tension and resistance, and to fortify the aura and other aspects of the energy body.
Gemstones store information within their crystal matrices. The purification of the stones eliminates extraneous information picked up during their mining, storage and transport. This allows their natural, vibratory characters to once again radiate without foreign wave form interference.
When someone takes a Spiritual PhytoEssencing gemstone essence, this information disperses throughout the mind/body/spirit organism, guiding those levels of being to a deep connection to the rhythms of the natural world and the light of spirit.
Color-Light Therapy & ColorEssencing
Color light can communicate very complex messages depending upon which colors are used, in which sequence and which synergistic factors such as essential oils, gemstones, acupoint massage, moxa, etc.
Each color we perceive is associated with a specific wavelength of light. This phenomenon is a result of how our eyes and brain interpret different wavelengths as distinct colors. From the warm hues of red to the cool tones of blue, every color has its own unique wavelength that contributes to the visual spectrum we experience.
Dr. Fritz Popp, a German physicist, discovered that the body cells radiate light. He called these light waves – biophotons. He found that these photons pass on information to other cells by means of light.
Therapeutically, color light therapy can be defined as treatment with luminous, radiant energy. In his book Color Meditation, S.G.J. Ouseley writes: “Each color has seven aspects. Each color vitalizes, animates, heals, enlightens, supplies, inspires and fulfils.”
I have been spending quite a bit of time in the last few months both studying color and practicing color therapy. I have found the results to be profound. The addition of color has definitely amplified the effects of all my other therapies and greatly deepened their impact. Color lights, when used properly and strategically, can effect all levels of being simultaneously. It is also invaluable for helping release the effects of old traumas, including childhood traumas. Color light therapy also deepens dreaming and can help turn dreaming into a therapeutic experience.
I did a color therapy protocol the other day with a woman, the intention of which was to rebalance her endocrine system. The results were remarkable. She went from being fatigued and imbalanced to brimming with energy and feeling happy and deeply connected with her inner self.
I use a number of different color therapy tools including a Colorpuncture set and a polarized light transmitter and a chromotherapy (color therapy) homemade device.
I have worked with color for many years and color therapy is featured in quite a few of the essential oil chapters of my Synthesis Materia Medica/Spiritualis of Essential Oils. For instance, lemongrass is associated with the color yellow, rosewood with the color pink, parsley with the color green, etc.
In the revised 2025 edition of the SPE Repertory of Essential Oils (which will be made available toward the end of this year) will feature rubrics for each color that lists all the essential oils associated with that color. This way if you are going to use a certain color healing protocol (e.g., red light for the lumbar spine, orange light for the thoracic spine and yellow light for the cervical spine), you can select certain oils based upon their color associations to massage into the treated areas after exposure to the color light waves. The class recording on Light and Color Therapeutics with Essential Oils and Gemstones Synergies Part 1 from last month is available to members now.
Hope to see you in class soon!
Shalom,
Dr. B
Featured Articles
One of Carl Jung’s Cases Analyzed from a Spiritual PhytoEssencing Perspective
In this article, I demonstrate the unique SPE art of case-study analysis using one of the cases Carl Jung (whose ideas are another of the foundation stones in the theoretical context of SPE) describes in his book Memories, Dreams, Reflections (1961). I chose this case for the purposes of this SPE case-study analysis demonstration for two reasons. First, it is very brief and thus, ideal for an article. Secondly, it is rare among well-known, psychology case-studies in that it features an interface between the psyche and spirit. Thus, it merges neatly into the stream of SPE case-study analysis.
Cayenne is a Powerful Food and Medicine
I have observed Cayenne for its potentially life-saving properties over the many years of my practice. Read this article to learn about the benefits and uses of Cayenne in herbal medicine and folklore as well as my recipes for cayenne drink.
High-Intensity Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy
The focus of the lecture is the home use of a high-intensity PEMF machine from PEMF-devices.com. This device has tremendous healing potential. Over the course of a few months, I have developed some very unique, easy-to-do protocols wherein I have adapted certain aspects of healing systems such as the Chakra System, early 20th century chiropractic and osteopathy, Chapman’s Neuro-Lymphatic Reflexes, Tom Tam Healing System, Dr. Richard Tan’s Balance Method, Dr. Reinhardt Voll’s electroacupuncture, etc. to this PEMF therapy device. The webinar recording is free for members of NHSS/SPE Membership Program or you can order it for 10 USD.
Light and Color Therapeutics with Essential Oils and Gemstones Synergies Part 1
The Member Zone now has video classes. The class recording on Light and Color Therapeutics with Essential Oils and Gemstones Synergies Part 1 is available.
Join the membership program and get access to the class recording (which are usually 2+ hours in length) and downloadable document about color therapy spectrums, effects and benefits of various colors in light therapy and the NHSS/SPE integrated ColorEssencing Method which includes the Nerve-Calm ColorEssencing Technique and Antidepressant ColorEssencing Technique.
As a member you will have access to 2-4 monthly live classes on Zoom (and class recordings) and learn directly from me and some of my best students. Besides the classes content, you’ll also be able to order gemstone essences and special powerful blends that are only available to members. Members also get exclusive such as articles, formulations, recipes, etc. At just $99/year, the value this program provides is substantial!
