Thank you for an exceptional weekend.   The group dynamics were wonderful. I am loving C9 and treat it like a pet, putting the bottle on me at every opportunity. The gold/bronze G5 bottle helped to bring my beautiful Lion guide Simba through and I realised looking at the centimetre left in the bottle that the gold is the colour of the lion and the bronze his mane.  For me this is the Simba bottle - how African is that!

I went to the dentist today and had root canal treatment as I had an abscess.  There were complications and he had to drill into the bone.  Yuk.  He warned me that I would be very sore for a day or two.
However, I took along bottle 1 as I felt I needed plenty of yellow to stop me shaking.  I did a visualisation with Blue Angel while I was being 'done' and had sprayed black dragon liberally before I left home.  Just at the end of the treatment I experienced a wash of magenta and olive and so far, 14 hours later I have had absolutely no pain at all.  I have had root work before and within an hour of leaving the dentist I have been taking as many painkillers as possible.  This time I don't even need one!
Good old Colourworks.  I was trying to work out the logistics of why that combination worked.....but my body obviously just chose the right ones for me at that time.

My birthday is on the 22nd of August, and I have always felt an affinity for the number 22. During the 2006 Colourworks 3 course in Stanford, I re-evaluated my relationship to God during a meditation that focused on releasing vows. Following this meditation I realized that I held a deep seated perception of God that was not as benevolent as I had previously thought. It was a belief that seemed to be related to a past life. The exact details were not important but what was important was to release these beliefs that were not serving me. And so I decided to clear this and bathed in no 22, Submission & Caution. The words "guts and gore" echoed in my head as the dark liquid covered me like old blood. It felt like I was washing away not only all the judgements I held about the "unGodly" acts of violence visited upon the earth day in and day out, but also all the things that I held up as proof of my own "unGodliness". I slept restlessly that night and awoke exhausted and rattled.

But as the day wore on, I felt a bright light shining within. This was day 3 of the course. That evening, I rushed to keep a month old appointment for a "Body Talk" appointment that I had made to help clear my monthly PMT. What came up as priority was that: I needed to let go of a religious belief. It was located in my small intestine (intellect) and connected to my heart. It involved my 8th chakra and concerned past lives. All of this information came directly through my body's intelligence -  I had not spoken a word.
To me this is an amazing affirmation of the instantaneous action of the colour therapy bottles when working in unison with the power of the mind.  A very profound and confirming experience. And very importantly, the process has cleared my major PMT symptoms.

This morning I bathed in Mars (about 1/3 of the bottle; I always pour out intuitively until my hand stops pouring - I clearly felt up to a good dose of Mars this morning). It was totally contrary to what I had expected. I had expected fire & anger breaking open, but it was immensely soft & gentle.

I felt like a new tenant who is entering the house she's going to live in, walking through the hall, discovering the different rooms, looking out of the window, stroking the marble of the mantlepieces, feeling the touch of the curtains with her fingers, looking up at the ceilings... Discovering the new house where she's about to take up residence.

And that was the way I felt towards my body: I no longer felt it as a prison, but as a residence for my consciousness. It was the first time in my life that I felt what I had been told so often in my yoga training: you *are* not your body, your consciousness lives in it. It's a housing, a residence for your consciousness, the means by which you can have experiences on planet Earth. Without this physical body, this 'housing', you would miss the basic instrument to live on this planet as a human being. And I accepted it. I feel that for the first time in my life, I have accepted my physical body.

It seems as if this bottle is at the same time waking up memories, reminding me that Iam not my body and teaching me to love my physical body & honour it as the temporary earthly residence of my consciousness. A potent oil indeed, Mars...

 

Opened a New World  
by Rosie Packer, UK

Colourworks opened a completely new world for me, and I’ve worked with the bottles ever since.  I sometimes put a few drops in the bath or on my face and body before I go to sleep; and the bottle is always next to my bed with two crystals next to it.  When I was working with bottle 35 (higher self) in a short time I felt a subtle change come about me; for although I would still have my silly irrational thoughts whirring around, another `voice’ would say – but that’s now really how it is, you know that.  This has become stronger over time, and I almost feel a serenity that I’ve never had before.

I’m now working with bottle 15 – The Magician – how I love the concept of magic!  I’ve used the same process, and I have had dreams that have told me that there are opportunities, that it’s all out there.  It’s early days with this bottle, but I’m excited about using it and the colours are exquisite.

C6 Story
by Melissie Jolly

When I started Colourworks I was living in Durban and I was helped by an amazing woman called Dudu Mdlalose.  Dudu was my domestic helper as well as an extra pair of hands to make bottles and pack them. When I left Durban I kept in touch with Dudu but in my usual patchy way.  August last year (2006) I did a workshop in Durban and got hold of Dudu to set up a meeting.  Dudu, a very beautiful woman, had lost a lot of weight and looked even better.  However looking into Dudu’s eyes I saw that this weight loss was not something to be excited about.  Dudu has Aids.  I had no extra bottles with me and had to go home to post bottles to Dudu and sent her about 6 C6’s.
I have been keeping in touch with Dudu and her last message, just before I came to England (Feb 2007) was that she was using her bottles daily and that she had gained 7kg and that she was sure that she did not have aids anymore.  Now I am not sure about that but I do know that something had changed for her and that she has huge amounts of hope for the future and that she is no longer panicked about her children having to grow up without her.

 

C6 Story
by Melissie Jolly

The other event with C6 was right after the group from England and America had been to Stanford during September 2006.  Everyone had just left when I received a very unexpected phone call from a friend from Johannesburg to say she was at Cape Town airport and would I fetch her.  She had seen her oncologist that day and had been told that they could do nothing for her anymore.  She was on heavy doses of morphine which made her feel awful.  As she arrived she got into a bath with C6 oil and we covered her wherever she had pain with C6.
After about three days she was pain free for the first time in months and without using morphine at all.  What was interesting was that she only liked C6 to start with and then started looking at C5 (blue) which she was drawn to bath in.  She released a lot of emotional stuff with the men in her life and after 6 days of constantly using bottles, she went home with a full set of bottles and back to work.  She is still using the bottles and is still working.

C6 is the one we have learnt is the best painkiller of the set and when I used it on my sore throat it cleared quite magically and almost instantly so remember that as practitioners, we have this resource that works like a cosmic aspirin without side effects.
