The principle of color breathing therapy is based on energy centers, which is commonly known as "chakra."According to the ancient studies and books, chakras denote specific functions of the body and mind.

These functions are not visible to the eyes, but they can be felt and when one concentrates on those specific areas these chakras can be stimulated.

The therapist gives the instruction to the patients and also teaches them the actual way and different breathing exercises.During the session, therapist may use many tools, such as candles, fabric and color images in order to precede the visualization process.

In the beginning, the patient is directed to imagine breathing the color in and out of their body.
