ACUCOLORS ADDRESSES: the WHOLE Person in Body-Soul-Spirit Physical Body: The major focus of Western Medicine the Body is the physical vector which carries the Soul and the Spirit in this world. It needs nutrition and exercise to remain healthy and functional. It is subject to harm from accident or illness. (USE REGULATORY TREATMENTS.) Emotional Soul: The Soul is the psychological reflector of our emotions in an aura around the outside of the body. It supports our instinctive drive, and can act as mediator in bringing balance between the worldliness of the body and Godliness of the spirit. (USE SPECIFIC A-Z TREATMENTS.) Mind Spirit: The Spirit is our rational, intellectual director. It is our beliefs and our standards by which we interpret situations. The spirit mind can take control of the body matter. (REALIGN MERIDIAN PATHWAYS.)
The Meridians The Spirit, the information director, is located at the center of the meridian network of the body Meridians are energy pathways that carry vital information from the Spirit to the Soul and Body. The Yin meridians are paired with their opposing Yang pathways and become 5 main paired meridians, each having their own emotion and physical disease tendencies.

WHY DO WE NEED ACUCOLORS? Emotions are part of our soul being. Normally, we express an emotion and immediately release it. What happens if we repress a negative emotion because we don t want to show it? The repressed emotion becomes trapped, blocking energy flow through the meridian channels of the body. When energy is blocked for extended periods of time, physical damage can occur at the cellular level of the body. AcuColors releases trapped emotions and opens up the blocked meridians allowing positive light energy to heal the cells of the body.
HEALING EFFECTS OF LIGHT ENERGY Dr. Fritz Albert Popp, Biophysicist found we emit biophotons 1974 which can be seen with Kirlian/Russian GDV camera: "We know today that man is essentially a being of light. And the modern science of photobiology... is presently proving this. In terms of healing... the implications are immense. We now know, for example, that... light can initiate, or arrest, cascade-like reactions in the cells, and that genetic cellular damage can be virtually repaired, within hours, by faint beams of light. We are still on the threshold of fully understanding the complex relationship between light and life, but we can now say, emphatically that the function of our entire metabolism is dependent on light.

Fingertip Testing 1. Press firmly in the middle of the last digit of each finger, just under the round fingertip pad. Sharp pain that makes you want to yell OUCH! is a positive response. 2. Follow the testing in this order: Left Hand (LH) 5-4-3-2-1; Right Hand (RH) 1-2-3-4-5. 3. Check for Imbalance side to side. If sore fingers are not the same on LH or RH, then there is a Laterality imbalance and need Corpus Callosum treatment. 4. When there is a T o F difference top to bottom, such as hot hands and cold feet, then there is a Polarity issue and a Vertical treatment is needed.

Part II TREATMENTS Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) does not treat individual health conditions since they are only symptoms of greater energy imbalances in the body. 1. The Regulatory Treatments resynchronize the overall 5 paired meridian systems. (Section 1) 2. Treating specific health issues (A-Z) releases negative emotions in targeted organs. (Section 2) 3. Rebalancing the meridian systems cures the disease. (Section 3)
Sec 1: The Regulatory Treatments resynchronize the overall 5 paired meridian systems
Lymphatic THUMB (1st) FINGER Triple Triangles General Indications: For LvGB, Lymphatic issues, Acute Tonsillitis, Sinusitis, Appendicitis. To increase Lymphatic drainage & for detoxification. For any Chronic Lymphatic disease Hodgkin s Lymphoma, Lymphedema, Lymphocytosis, Heavy Metal Poisoning, Directions: Decide at which location you have the most tension, and treat that area regularly with the appropriate triangle below; otherwise, treat all 3 zones using the points on each triangle for an overall Detox treatment if you have multiple symptoms from each zone. Starting with #1 at the base of the neck, apply yellow to all 6 points for 20 seconds each. Triangle lines are only for visualization.
Nervous System Index (2nd) FINGER General Indications: Nervous System degenerative disorders such as Balance, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Alzheimer s, Parkinson s, Epilepsy, and Stroke, Palsy or anything that affects memory and ability to perform daily activities. Directions: Starting with Blue # 1-7 for Nervous System Disorders (sore 2 nd Fingers). Apply appropriate colors for 20 seconds each.
Musculo Skeletal System Middle (3rd) FINGER General Indications: #3 Middle=Degenerative Disease of Bones & Muscles Arthritis, Fibromyalgia (FMS), Lupus (SLE), Myasthenia Gravis (MG), Osteoporosis, Sarcoma & Bone Cancer Directions: Starting with Red #1-5 for Musculoskeletal disorders (sore 3rd Fingers). Apply appropriate colors for 20 seconds each.
Endocrine RING (4TH) FINGER Chakra Balancing General Indications: For Endocrine disorders, such as Addison s, Adrenal Fatigue, Cushing s, Endometriosis, Diabetes, Graves, Hashimoto s Thyroiditis, PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome). Directions: Starting at Root Chakra (Red), place appropriate color on each Chakra for 20 sec. During each light placement, think in your mind of a whirlwind spinning freely clockwise around that part of your body where the light is placed. The faster it spins the more balanced the chakra. The Chakras can spin either direction, but Clockwise tends to move outward and join other energy, while Counter Clockwise moves energy inward and tends to drain others energy. If one of the chakras will not move, try further meditation, visualizing with more intent a swirling motion. If there is still no movement, then suspect blockage(s). Look at the Gland and its Function in the chart above. If you know you already have issues with that gland, then this is further confirmation that you need to work with it to unblock the corresponding chakra. Each Chakra is linked to a gland. When you balance the chakra you help regulate the gland. Also, significant emotional trauma is imprinted in the Chakras; so when you balance the Chakras, you release negative emotions.
Blood/Immune Defense Little (5th) FINGER The Heart pumps vital nutrients throughout the whole body. The Small Intestine absorbs nutrients from ingested foods. These systems are dependent upon all the functions of the other 4 organ pairs Ex: If the Liver fuel filter, fails to sift out toxins, and the Lymphatic exhaust system backs up with waste, all of this pollution spills over into the blood causing toxic substances to be distributed all over the body in the form of RA, MS, Alzheimer s, etc. This is also your immune defense. So keep your engine running clean! General Indications To improve circulation & communication to all the body parts. For Heart diseases Hypertension, High Cholesterol, Enlarged Heart, Heart Attack, Palpitations. Congestive Heart Failure. For Lung Diseases COPD, Bronchitis, Asthma, Emphysema, Pneumonia, TB, Lung Cancer, Pulmonary Edema Directions: Place appropriate color on each point for 20 sec
Sec 2: A-Z Special Health Treatments Allergies, Skin RELEASE NEGATIVE EMOTIONS IN TARGETED ORGANS Depression GI Disorders Jaw Issues Constipation Ear Disorders Heatstroke Kidney Problems Fever Insomnia Liver GB Issues
SECTION 3: MERIDIAN BALANCING REBALANCING THE MERIDIAN SYSTEMS CURES THE DISEASE. Meridians are energy pathways that link the outside physical body to the inside spirit body. The meridians are closely linked to the nervous system and the nerve pathways that feed every organ and part of the body, yet they also control the flow of chi throughout the whole body-soul-spirit. When a meridian is out of balance, symptoms will show up. From 5 Paired Meridian Pathway table, MigHA are from LvGB imbalance. HOW TO BRING MERIDIANS INTO BALANCE: Meridian Tracing: The energy of the Meridian pairs runs in opposition or Yin and Yang. Normally, the opposing forces keep the meridian pairs balanced, but occasionally the acupoints along one of the meridian pathways become physically or emotionally blocked causing a drop in energy in that pathway, while the opposing compensates with too much. An example of this is when the Liver meridian becomes blocked by anger causing migraines. There is a drop in energy in the Liver meridian which needs to be stimulated using the warm color Yellow. The Gall Bladder meridian tries to compensate with too much energy and needs to be sedated using the cool color Violet.
LIVER-GALL BLADDER THUMBS Anger is a powerful emotion that may produce migraine HAs, eye problems, myopathy or tendinitis. Meridian Underactive Warm Color Overactive Cool Color Liver Yellow Violet Gall Bladder Yellow Violet

Meridian Underactive Warm Color Overactive Cool Color Kidney Red Green Bladder Red Green An additional step, stroking 5 times on the Kidney/Bladder lines on the feet can clear unwanted antepartum emotions. 1. Kidney Line 5x 3 rd toe to heel on bottom of L&R foot Orange 2. Bladder Line 5x 5 th toe bunion to heel on side of L&R foot Yellow
LUNG-LARGE INTESTINE RINGS Grief or sorrow will settle in the lungs. Meridian Underactive Warm Color Lung Orange Blue Large Intestine Orange Overactive Cool Color Blue
HEART-SMALL INTESTINE LITTLES The Heart should be full of Unconditional Love. This meridian should never be out of balance. If it is, then the others are as well, since the other 4 meridian pairs protect the Ht/SI at all costs. Meridian Underactive Warm Color Overactive Cool Color Heart Rose Turquoise Small Rose Turquoise Intestine
When there is light in the soul there will be beauty in the person. When there is beauty in the person, there will be harmony in the house. When there is harmony in the house, there will be order in the nation. When there is order in the nation, there will be peace in the world. --Old Chinese Proverb
