There are two kinds of depression (original research): one which makes us feel that nothing works and that life will never be any better. We may not feel our deep, spiritual connection with All That Is but may feel that there is no way out of our suffering and disagreement with life. This is the universal depression which needs the Dinshah color Yellow.

Then there is the other kind of depression, making us feel that we are not understood by others, that our great value as human being is not recognized and that we feel isolated and rejected by others. This is the personal depression which needs the Dinshah color Violet. Interstingly, these two colors, Yellow and Violet, balance each other in the Dinshah color system.

One woman suffered from depression for many years and would not believe that Color could lift her depression. She had never heard of it before; it seemed too simple to her. If it could work, why was it not commonly used? After enough suffering, she finally gave it a try. To her greatest surprise, her depression was "blown away" from one session, as if it had not lingered for so long. Of course, if the factors causing the depression are not removed, the depression may come back and the color session needs to be repeated. However, with each use of the needed Dinshah color, the causes for the depression may diminish, especially, when the color sessions are held daily for some time and are supported by a proper diet. The Dinshah colors, at the border of the spiritual and the physical worlds, are mood enhancers and positively affect body, mind and soul.

When one suffers from depression and looks through the plastic color filters of the Dinshah colors Yellow and Violet, one after the other, one may feel comforted by one color, but may reject the other. The color that comforts is the one needed.

For best results, the exact Dinshah colors are used, Dinshah Yellow or Dinshah Violet. The color filter is placed in a filter holder, which is attached to a small reading lamp (5 to 25 watts, incandescent light bulb). The colored light then shines on the bare skin of the body from hip to above the head, called systemic. The regular session takes an hour in a heated room (80 degrees Fahrenheit), or, a space heater can be used to keep the body warm. The colors are not absorbed well when the body fights the cold.

The filter holder is made from a flexible, black piece of card board. A rectangle is cut, which has a width of the diameter of the lamp shade to be used (a small reading lamp), plus 1/4". The length of the card board piece is the double of the width to make a rectangle. The cardboard rectangle is folded in half to make a folder, which is taped to the lamp shade, both on the right and left side. The filter holder is open at the top to insert the color filter.

For best results it is recommended to use exact Dinshah colors made from transparent, Roscolene plastic color sheets. A big sheet can be purchased for a few dollars at theatrical supply stores (Yellow Pages). For Yellow, use Roscolene # 809, for Violet use ## 832, 859 and 866 combined. Squares are cut from the larger sheets to fit the filter holder. The combined filter parts of the Violet color filter are stapled together at the edges.

All is energy. Our body is merely a denser form of energy, which can be entrained by the correct and healthy frequencies of the Dinshah colors, as a tuning fork can entrain another. School medicine is using color, e.g. blue for premature babies. Wait until school medicine professionals rediscover what they have used over half a century ago in the past millennium: the entire Dinshah color system! However, Color*Medicine^TM is not yet taught in medical schools, yet, color healing is used in advanced European hospitals!

You bet, especially for depression, since Dinshah colors have no long lasting bad side effect, even when at times they are not used as intended. They have been uplifting and have brought happiness. Nevertheless, if a color makes us feel uncomfortable, we should immediately turn it off. The body knows what it needs, whereas the mind may not know. Children in general are very good in intuitively selecting the color they need. They especially often like the color which has been added to the Dinshah system of 12 colors, Jay Scherer Pink.
