Colour as Food for the Nervous System
We often think of nourishment in terms of food and water. Yet your nervous system hungers too — and colour is one of its primary sources of nourishment. Just as the body requires vitamins and minerals, the biofield requires frequencies of light.
Every shade you encounter enters your system like a nutrient. Too much artificial light is like eating processed food; it leaves the body wired but undernourished. Natural colours — sunrise gold, forest green, ocean blue — are the organic meals of the nervous system.
Science of Colour Nourishment
Research confirms that colour directly influences mood and regulation.
- Blue light therapy is used clinically for sleep disorders and seasonal depression.
- Green light has shown promise in reducing migraine pain.
- Full spectrum light helps balance circadian rhythms and immune function.
When seen through the lens of Light Literacy™, colour is more than visual — it is nutritional. Each frequency feeds a specific part of your nervous system.
Light Literacy™ as Daily Nutrition
In Light Literacy™, colour is understood as food for perception. Red fortifies courage, green restores balance, violet opens contemplation. When we surround ourselves with colour intentionally, we feed both body and soul.
Kaleidoscopes serve as concentrated meals — condensed arrays of colour that flood the nervous system with coherence. They are not entertainment; they are colour nutrition in fractal form.
Practical Applications
- Begin your morning with a “colour breakfast”: choose a colour you feel drawn to and wear it or visualise it as you breathe.
- When tired or anxious, take in natural greens — through trees, plants, or simply gazing at a leaf.
- Balance screen time with “colour breaks”: stepping outside to absorb natural light.
Just as food choices affect your health, colour choices affect your nervous system.
