Techniques of Color Meditation

1. Sit down in a comfortable, relaxed position, either upright or lying down

2. Next, shut your eyes and take a couple deep, diaphragmatic breaths. Fill your lungs completely and hold each breath for two or three seconds before releasing
   
   
   
   
   
3. You can either start the color therapy using your chakras, or just breathe in color. If you are a beginner, continue on with simple breathing techniques, and leave chakra work for later.
   
4. Better use a general color for all around good health Once you have chosen your color, and your intended area of therapy, visualize it flooding your lungs with every breath. See the color flow with the air/oxygen to the required area.
5. See the region being suffused in the light of that color
   
6. Do this with every inhalation. As you exhale, visualize all negative energy being released from the region in a black or grey cloud, upwards and out your lungs.
