FOCUSING

I developed the 'Focusing' technique that is outlined in chapter one  of this book after returning home from an intensive color training course in London.   It  incorporates meditative and contemplative practices called 'Spiritual Exercises' with a technique I learned  in the book called "Focusing"  by Eugene T. Gendlin, PH.D.   My technique  a  'hybrid' of both  of these practices.   It blends the physical experiences we are having  with spiritual insights we have through meditation and contemplation. We can then put a 'word' that matches that experience.     The whole premise of this book is to first experience a specific color hue spiritually and then to be able to verbalize it's quality after we feel it's energy in our physical form.  For example red is "beautiful."  Red is "warm."  Once you are in tune with a color's basic essence (quality) you have the foundation for wellness and balance.  You will begin to see and experience color in a whole new 'light'! 

It is alright to be skeptical. 

Direct experience is the only way to know from your heart if something is true.  It may seem to you that the declaration  'color is the only energy that keeps our physical forms alive' is ostentatious  But how are you going to know unless you actually experience this energy directly.  "Focusing " will help you do this. Actually we are 'focusing ' in some way in every moment.  Doing it with clarity and intention is the difference.
