Library's review
In Colour and Healing Gladys Mayer offers a new approach to the questions: What is colour? What has it to do with healing?
Written in a clear and practical way, this booklet deals with the importance of undrstanding colours, colour theories and methods, colour in everyday life, colour and health,
Miss Mayer deals particularly with questions which have arisen from her 40 years' lecturing experience, such as: How can colours serve us in healing? How can an understanding of colours develop a strengthened life of soul?
Based on the work of Rudolf Steiner, Colour and Healing is a book not only for those interested in painting, psychology, the occult sciences, health, healing, etc., but for everyone.
