THE ABILITY TO FUNCTION in the business world is accomplished utilizing fifty percent business acumen, and fifty percent intuition. We are attentive to making sure that the “i’s” are dotted and the “t’s” are crossed, the lists are complete, phone calls have been made, and the game plan has been laid out. But what about the mental checklists? Are you in a positive place mentally, emotionally, perspective; I mean, “spirit” at the most basic level. Have you had the “I can do this!” pep talk; told yourself that you deserve the success that you are working so hard to achieve? Of course you have…who doesn’t do this? And how do you reinforce the success- mantra that you whisper to yourself before you go to meet that client? If you could have a physical representation of that mantra,wouldn’t you use it? Of course you would.As a Reiki practitioner, I have become accustomed to “feeling” what I’m wearing. The use of color and its vibrational properties has slowly become a large part of the way I dress, in relation to what I hope to accomplish. Yes, I know it sounds a little wacky…but keep in mind that a great deal of research has been devoted to the human energy field and its influence; from shifts in attitude to major health care concerns.
By focusing a little attention on color combinations as you’re preparing for your day, you just might give yourself an advantage that you didn’t even know was available to you. The right splash of color can come in the form of a scarf; a piece of jewelry, your dress shirt or blouse…but its effect on your mood and attitude can be significant.
The energy centers in the body (charkas) correlate not only to specific colors and parts of the body, but to specific mental, emotional, and spiritual concerns. By giving a little attention to the colors associated with those energy centers, you can empower yourself to accomplish your goals!
- Red is associated with career goals, finances, home, possessions (the acquisition and retention of), and survival.
- Orange relates to overall health, and attention to your physical appearance.
- Yellow relates to power, control, and your desires.
- Green relates to relationships and attachments (current and the ones you hope to have and nourish), intuition, and forgiveness.
- Blue relates to truth, asking for what you want, and saying what needs to be said.
- Violet is related to hearing, being open and attentive to what is being said to you; to open communication.
- Indigo relates to the future (the one you’re working so hard to create), what is in your past that will affect your future, intuition, and your belief systems.
- Purple relates to trust, divine guidance, and again – intuition.
So as you prepare for that client meeting, add that indigo-hued scarf, that amethyst bracelet, or that yellow handkerchief to your business attire. Take a moment to meditate on what those colors mean, and most important…commit to the belief that it will work for you. Remind yourself “thinking makes it so.” Harness the energy that’s always been out there, bouncing around, just waiting for you to harness it and use it to make your life what it should be: happy, fulfilled and successful.
