Preface
Asthma Attack Relieved With Light From Photon Stimulator
“As we work to create light for others, we naturally light our own way.”
Mary Anne Radmacher
When the thought first came to me to suggest that we inaugurate an International Light Day (ILD), to celebrate our work with Light, it seemed a natural
progression to formulate the idea to collate case studies from our international
and diverse group of light practitioners. Upon further reflection and discussion
with the ILA Board, it still seemed like a good idea.
Exploring further the many and varied forms of light used by the members of the ILA, it only highlighted the importance of such a collection. Light
therapy practitioners, health professionals, artists, architects, scientists, educators, product manufacturers, interior and exterior designers and philosophers – what other organisation has such a rich and eclectic mix of talent?
The formulation of ILD was a way of marking the importance of Light and the
collection of Case Studies would be a tangible display of our work. Once agreed
by the ILA Board, a case study request was duly despatched to members and
we were delighted at the marvellous and varied responses.
For the first time we have assembled a collection of feedback that encompasses the breadth of the ILA members’ work and expertise and it is truly
breathtaking. I am so proud to be a founder member of such a forward thinking and dynamic group and I trust that as you read through this material you
will also feel a similar glow of pride. A big thank you to Simon Hansen for the
great job he has done in producing the booklet, a marvellous tribute to our all
members!
When such a talented and diverse group of people unite to work in the
field of light, it can have no other effect than to light a path forward. This is
epitomised by the launch of the first International Light Day on 22 September 2013, and is something to be celebrated annually on the Autumn Equinox along with all our collective achievements, at our ILA Conference this year,
where once again we unite with other colleagues working in associated fields.
The Board of the ILA work tirelessly and diligently in our interests, informing the wider world of our work as demonstrated by our recent Press Release
and not least, in pursuit of a university to host our Light Degree Course. I would
like to take this opportunity to thank them, both past and present members,
for all their unstinting service and for this wonderful conference, where we can
gather to exchange thoughts and ideas, celebrate the 10th Anniversary of the
ILA, and as always, leave inspired and reinvigorated. Please continue to light
our way!

Treatment
Male Age 11
An 11 year old boy with chronic asthma suffered an attack while playing
with my son at our house. Since he was not in acute distress, I offered the color
treatment and he agreed. He had an inhaler if we needed to resort to that.
Since he was in the middle of an attack, we needed to sedate the lungs, and
stimulate the adrenals. Purple was applied to auricular Lung, and body points
Lung 1, and Conception Vessel 17 in the center of the chest. Then scarlet was
applied to auricular Kidney and Adrenal points, and body point Kidney 3. He
calmed down considerably within 5 minutes, and was totally better within 10
minutes. He commented that when this happens and he uses his inhaler, he
continues to cough throughout the day, but he was symptom free and felt
great after the auricular light treatment.

Treatment
Male
Age 60
Client was diagnosed in 1992 with Multiple Sclerosis and had been dealing with the condition for thirteen years when first seen. He had been active in
researching, trialling, and promoting treatment options which had clearly had
some positive effects and delayed the progress of the disease. Nevertheless,
he needed a mobility scooter outside the home and often a wheelchair within
it. His symptoms included intermittent left side hemiparesis with anopsia, migraines, restless leg syndrome often coupled with the sensation that his legs
did not belong to him, issues of continence, digestion, insomnia, exhaustion
and temperature regulation. Not surprisingly, though an innately cheerful person, he battled depression.
Treatment was initially twice weekly Samassati 60 to 90 minute home
visits using Harmonisation 1 and alternating protocols of Toxin Clearing and
Immune Support. After eight weeks the sessions were reduced to weekly but
the protocols were redirected and refined in response to the changing symptoms and gradual regaining of function. Treatment continued regularly for the
best part of a year.
All chronic symptoms of MS have gone, though vigilance in diet, supplements, and ensuring adequate rest remain important. The wheelchair has
been relegated to the shed and the mobility scooter only used now to play golf.
Client has returned to work as a teacher, trained as a Samassati light therapist,
and opened his own practice.

Biography:
Denise Hadden is a Syntonic Optometrist and Visual Coach in private practice in Cape Town, South Africa. Her search for a new way of seeing led to her
pioneering work in the understanding and analysis of our fields of awareness.
Denise’s first book, New Light on Fields, was published in 2010 and describes
her diagnostic use of an iridology chart to analyze our energetic visual fields.
Her second book, Coaching the Invisible Fields, will be available later this year.
Treatment
Female Age 40
This patient attended for an eye examination and light assessment. She
had heard of light therapy and wanted to improve her deteriorating vision.
Her field assessment revealed a traumatic brain injury. She told me of a motor
vehicle accident that she’d been in 20 years prior. She did not indicate that she
had any side effects from this experience. She began a light therapy treatment
protocol immediately with the intention of treating her advancing myopia.
The light therapy program required, began with a Trauma Releasing Program, which is also used to treat traumatic brain injury.
It spanned an 8 week period during which time a follow up field assessment was completed every two weeks. The therapy involved watching a specific light frequency for twenty minutes, five times a week. The colors chosen
were violet, indigo, blue and blue/green.
After two weeks the patient returned for her first visual field assessment.
Before we began mapping her field, she expressed, ‘my heartfelt thanks and
gratitude for the absolute transformation that I have experienced.’
It transpired that this lady had been unable to drive after the accident,
however following treatment she felt confident to drive herself for the first
time in 20 years. Additionally after doing 4 sessions of light she healed a difficult relationship by suddenly being able to see the other’s point of view.
This patient continued on with her light program until her field was wide
open, indicating a relaxed nervous system and a happy and confident individual.
She was so grateful that she gifted three light therapy programs, saying
‘I hope that this gift will enable others to experience the same miracle I have.’

Biography:
Karl Ryberg is trained in architecture and psychology with a special focus
on color and humanity. He manages a light therapeutic institute in Stockholm
and offers international training seminars. He has invented several light projectors and written the book “Living Light”.
Introduction - Presenting Condition
Female Age 40
A woman around 40 years of age wanted light treatment to alleviate her
chronic stomach pains. These were coupled with longstanding symptoms of
asthma and tinnitus. She used medication for the symptoms but knew the
problem to be psychological. She now felt it was time to face the underlying
problems. In spite of her positive presence, her professional life was a disaster.
Working as a graphic designer she had plenty of talent but never gained any
recognition and had in desperation tried to commit suicide. Conventional verbal psychotherapy and group dynamic treatment had been unsuccessful.
Happily married, she and her husband had decided for a life without children, it was a choice they had not regretted. She had been the youngest in a
home with divorced but understanding parents. School had been easy despite
limitations due to her shyness. Her happiest memories were from university
where the free form pedagogies gave her a sense of self confidence.
were still trusted favourites but she really wanted to try green.
The next time we met she was very proud. The stomach pains had abated
and she no longer needed medication. Her strongly dynamic energy had obviously found new escape routes and at work she no longer felt dense and compressed. Her boss had been impressed by her newly found openness and asked
her to make a profile presentation at a large corporate sales meeting. This was
an inspiring beginning for her professional career but also a frightening threat.
She wanted to discuss strategies to handle the fearful scenario.
A significant dream of hers gave encouragement. A snow white winter
landscape was bathed in glistening sun and a young girl rode bobsleigh sitting
on her mother’s lap. The child joyfully mastered the speedy downhill ride but
the parent figure kept falling off and getting hurt. Putting the image symbolism
clearly – the newly born personality would easily accomplish what the habitual
old self never managed to handle.
At our last session the dreaded sales meeting at work had been a thundering success and her colleagues now respected her as a skilled consultant.
She radiated love and jubilant appreciation for daring to show herself in the
world. As a departing gift she told me of a dream sequence that became a lucky
charm for her onward journey.
She hesitatingly told of a ghastly murder – she had assassinated a close
friend without the slightest remorse. To make things worse the slaughter had
been celebrated with a cannibal orgy where the bleeding cranium was passed
around as a trophy. She was at first reluctant to relate the loathsome tale after
the preceding sunshine story. The Phoenix bird emerging refreshed from the
pyre of funeral ashes and the old story of spring eternal surviving the bitterest
winter. Obsolete soul patterns must disappear and give place to the new. The
decrepit old queen was thoroughly massacred and it was time for a great symbolic celebration. The cruelty may be brutally archetypal and modern readers
would rather advocate an honest abdication – but when princess Snow White
appeared on the mythological scene the old ruling mother was not very keen
to renounce power.
Details of Treatment
During the initial diagnostic color test she consistently chose bright and
clear hues – an indication of energy and active will power. She found violet to
be most enchanting but shunned all green colors and would never wear them.
Unsurprisingly she excluded all green during her first self-chosen light dose.
On our second meeting she looked much brighter. She had felt upbeat for
a few days followed by soothing deep night sleep. Although still complaining
of her stressful stomach she mentioned an awakening sense of social contact.
At work she could focus better on important matters and proved herself to be
efficiently productive. She had spent a weekend clearing out a lot of rubbish in
the attic and found an old diary with forgotten recollections from the past. The
old images contained clues of the past and showed a way towards the future.
She no longer systematically avoided verdant tones and showed a much
greater boldness during the composition of her light sequence. Violet and red

Biography:
Deva Boersma is a retired clinical psychologist with access to a Sensora
system. The outcome of 30 years of research, Sensora combines light, sound
and kinesthetic stimuli to create a healing environment. It is based on “light
modulation” technology embedding pulsations within light projections, allowing interaction with brainwaves and other psychophysiological rhythms. Sensora installations have been in clinical use since 2011, with sites in depressiontreatment and public health centres.
Treatment/Therapy/Programme
Female February 2012
Age 61
Introduction – Presenting Condition
The subject had been suffering from chondromalacia in both knees since
the age of 28. Some years before she had undergone full knee replacement
surgery for her left knee. At the time of treatment she was having chronic pain
in her right knee and was a few months away from her second full knee replacement surgery. The condition of her knee was such that the cartilage was
so worn that bone rubbed against bone.
Subject had daily access to the Sensora system during a 3 week period.
Before treatment the subject reported having a high level of pain. On a scale
from 1 to 10 with 10 being the most pain, she reported levels varying from 6 to
8 depending on how much she moved in the day.
She could not walk more than a block at a time. During each session she
felt the pain level go to zero. She never felt any pain during the sessions and
was delighted with this. The pain would return after the sessions but each time
a little less so that by the end of the 3 weeks she reported that the pain was
now at a level of 3 out of 10.
The subject found the sessions very beautiful and was particularly delighted with the pure colors. She said it relaxed her and made her forget her
pain to the extent that the pain completely disappeared.
The subject had no access to the Sensora when she was away from home.
She would have liked to continue using the Sensora to manage the pain until
her knee replacement surgery but this was not geographically possible.
Since the surgery in July 2012 the subject no longer has any pain but she
returned to experience the Sensora for several days in February 2013 when
she was feeling particularly stressed and reported having felt more and more
relaxed with each session until the return of complete wellbeing. She testifies
that for herself the Sensora is effective for deep relaxation as well as chronic
pain management.
Details of Treatment
Sensora multi-sensorial system sessions combining light, sound and kinesthetic stimuli. Various sessions were selected according to the time of day of
delivery
• Morning: selection from “Meditation” Core Sessions series
• Mid day: selection from “Energy” Core Sessions series
• Evening: selection from “Relaxation” Core Sessions series
• 2x to 3x 20 minute Sensora sessions per day.

Biography:
Three women with different theoretical and practical backgrounds took
the initiative to do this study. Their professions were: Teacher (Kjellfrid Engen),
nutritionist (Hanne Halseth) and light therapists (Kjellfrid Engen and Grete Rynning). They all have a holistic viewpoint, and they wanted to put their different
working tools together, thinking that it will give a synergistic effect on children
with reading and writing problems.
Before the project, both Kjellfrid Engen and Grete Rynning had used
colored light stimulation on children with reading and writing problems with
good result, now they wanted to find out if the results would be even better if
nutrition and movements were included.
Client Description /commencement Date
10 children from 9 to 11 years of age (boys and girls) The project lasted for 5
weeks in fall 2007.
Treatment
The project started on September 1st 2007. The children were tested with
Carlsten’s reading and writing test, measuring visual field and an electronic
color test.
Diet and nutrition
The blood sugar balance has a great impact on mood and our ability to
concentrate and learn due to the brain’s preference for a stable glucose level.
This directly implies that a high intake of sugar and refined carbohydrates has
a profound impact on mental performance .
During the project we recommended a normal healthy diet, and children
and parents learned about nutrition good for the brain.
Different activities stimulating brain and body
We wished to stimulate the brain through the use of hearing, movements
and touch in play and in activities.
Quick movements make us mentally aware and focus is directed outwards. Slower movements give a different reaction mentally, where the focus
is directed inwards to one’s own body and mind.
Practitioner observations
Light stimulation was easily done during the school day by the teachers.
Physical movements and nutrition depended on the parents. They were motivated during a weekend workshop and according to them they kept the focus
during the treatment.
Client feedback
The children were positive about the treatment all the time. Most of the
families spoke of the child having better concentration, better reading skills
and better performance in matters which had been difficult earlier. They were
more focused on healthy nutrition. The children reported having more energy.
Outcomes
The average improvement in speed of reading is 36.6%, with a range from
8.7% to +85%. These are such encouraging results that we believe we can attribute them to a positive interaction between the three basic elements we
have applied during the project - namely diet/nutrition, colored light stimulation and movement.
There were three main elements - or tools - in the project:
• Colored light stimulation
• Diet and nutrition
• Different activities stimulating brain and body
Colored light stimulation
In the 4 weeks to come, the children received colored light stimulation using the Photon Wave lamp 3 times per week for 10 minutes. Their treatment
was applied according to Leona Vermeire’s for sympathetic or parasympathe
tic nervous system designation.

brainwaves and other psychophysiological rhythms. Sensora installations have
been in clinical use since 2011, with sites in depression-treatment and public
health centres.
Presenting Condition /commencement Date
Female 63 years April 2013
Subject was diagnosed with inflammatory breast cancer in 2008,
stage IV palliative care. One breast was surgically removed. She refused all
chemo and radiotherapy medical treatment, and focused on self-treatment.
She also did courses of Herceptin and Aredia. During the winter 2012/2013 the
pain became unbearable and under medical supervision she had to increase
the dosage of multiple pain killers. She was bedridden and depressive. Having
previously experienced Sensora light therapy, she decided to try it to relieve
her symptoms.
Treatment
Four-stage Sensora sessions optimized for pain management, fibromyalgia, MS and other neuropathic symptoms:
• 10 minutes Lateral Light, Soft Reverse type (psycholeptic)
• 25 minutes “Fire Within” Core Session, based on warm colors (red,
orange, yellow)
• 5 minute’s stimulant energetic Core Session
• 10 minutes integration in total darkness and silence.
Frequency of delivery of treatment
Ongoing use as long as pain management is required
• One 50-minutes session every 2-3 days
14
•
•
Beneficial effects are felt starting with 1st session and may hold for
2-5 days; treatment can be continued as long as needed
Subject came out smiling and with brighter eyes from her 1st session,
with intense pain in her arm having disappeared within 20 minutes of
light, and was able to walk more easily.
Client Feedback
Pain: My metastatic bone pain and neuropathic pain are substantially reduced by Sensora; less and less pain, and less and less pain medication needed.
Fatigue: I went from extreme insurmountable fatigue and associated depression to moderate fatigue without depression. This gives me hope, light at
the end of the tunnel.
During sessions I feel an energy boost lasting a few hours. After sessions
I sleep deeply, but not crushed by fatigue. Pain usually disappears right with
beginning of “Fire Within” session.
Within one month of treatment I have been able to stop most of the following prescribed pain medication:
Fentanyl patch 100mcg/h
Sativex p.r.n. every hr as needed
Hydromorph-contin 9mg every 12 hrs
Dilaudid syrup 5ml for breakthrough pain, Rx every hr as needed
Ritalin 5mgx2 every morning to counteract effects of such strong prescription drugs
The only Rx I continue taking regularly are Fentanyl patches.
Outcomes - practitioner update
Now in her 6th week of treatment, subject has regained substantial energy and autonomy; her depression and anger generated by constant pain in
spite of heavy medication, have lifted. She has regained a quality of life and she
is at peace with dying. Her palliative care is greatly eased because of substantial reduction in prescription pain medicine.

Bethany is a classic example of a lovely, bright, friendly and sensitive
child who has a great deal of potential but who, due to her dyslexia and
sensory difficulties has been unable to fulfil that potential academically.
Born two weeks early by Caesarean section with the umbilical cord around
her neck. She was slow in reaching her developmental milestones. She had
difficulties learning to read, learning to write, doing maths and retaining information in memory. She was worried that she was forgetful, losing things
and getting angry with herself. During the assessment she asked ‘Can you
help me change me?’
Details of Treatment/Therapy/Programme.
Lightwave Stimulation (LWS) - involves looking in a darkened environment, at low intensity, pulsed coloured light emitted from a Lumatron machine.

Presenting condition
Born two weeks late by emergency Caesarean, at three months old he
suffered adverse reactions to the DTP vaccinations which caused severe nystagmus and blindness. At fourteen months his eyesight started to return. His
motor development was delayed. Benjamin suffered numerous ear infections
and gastro-intestinal problems. Benjamin’s self-image was poor and he was
easily frustrated. During the assessment he reported the following: ‘My ears
are not working well’, ‘I want to lock my bedroom door’, ‘Most people know
me as an angry person’.
Details of Treatment
Lightwave Stimulation (LWS) - involves looking in a darkened environment, at low intensity, pulsed coloured light emitted from a Lumatron machine.
Auditory Integration Training (AIT) - involves listening to specially altered
music, through headphones, from an Audiokinetron machine.

Practitioner - Observations during Treatment
Day 7 – Benjamin is going to the bathroom more frequently.
Day 8 – This morning Benjamin told his Dad he is looking forward to going
back to school.
Client feedback during Treatment
Day 7 – Dad said - Benjamin is noticeably calmer. Used to ignore my questions but today answered all of them. Benjamin mentioned that he could find
his bed in the dark. He said he can never do that as he always bangs into things.
He thinks his coordination is better. Dad said: He feels Benjamin is really like a
different child.
Client Feedback after Treatment
Great improvement in self-esteem, mood and emotional stability. Benjamin used to walk out of class up to 5 times a day. We didn’t realise this was
because of noise but after he did treatment he stopped this. Immediate improvement in fine motor skills. Anxiety, which was his worst symptom, was
reduced. Started to do dramatically better in class, probably because he was
able to engage in class more.
Outcomes – Practitioner
Benjamin is less sensitive to sounds and able to ignore sounds that would
have bothered him in the past. His balance and coordination have improved
and he has better awareness of his surroundings. The quality and duration of
his attention span has increased and he’s better able to focus. Parents also observed that his self-esteem has increased. Benjamin is sleeping more soundly.
He is calmer, happier and more at ease with himself.
He won a young writers’ competition and had his story published in a
book.

Client Description
Elizabeth was sent to my practice by a psychotherapist. Elizabeth showed
strong emotional and physical fatigue (close to a burn out or depression) partly
caused by the suppression of anger after a separation 8 years previous and
grief for her parents who had both passed away around the same time. She
was constantly tired and felt a strong need for quietness. She felt a lack of immunity for other people´s thoughts and felt over vulnerable. She had the will to
change her lifestyle and wanted to become more conscious about herself. She
wanted to rediscover her self-worth and trust, and acknowledge her spiritual
side.
Details of Treatment
Monocrom Color Dome Light Therapy,
Hygeia Color Diagnosis Chart
Inner Child work
1 Systemic Family Constellation
Elizabeth came for 5 Monocrom Color Dome light sessions within the
time span of 11 weeks.
The Hygeia Color Diagnosis Chart shows imbalances and areas of wellbeing in the mental, emotional, metabolic and physical area of the spine (expressed in colors) This shows how the person feels in these life areas, is the
basis for the counselling and shows which colors are “needed” by the client.
24
This is the basis for the counselling process with the client.
After the counselling Elizabeth received her light session with the
Monocrom Color Dome with my special advice as to which colors are most
important for her to look at.
I introduced “inner child work” into the sessions.
After 8 weeks Elizabeth did a systemic family constellation
Duration of Treatment
Elizabeth came for sessions that lasted 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
The phototherapy with the Monocrom Color Dome is for 10 minutes .
Frequency of Delivery
Elizabeth received 7 sessions:
5 Monocrom Color Dome sessions with counselling
1 Family constellation workshop
1 Counselling after the constellation
Treatment intervals were: 12 days, 14 days, 11 days, 5 weeks, 13 days.
5 treatments with the Monocrom Color Dome Light device.
Practitioner - Observations during Treatment
At her first session Elizabeth looked very pale and felt distressed and exhausted, almost depressive.
She reacted very strongly to the color/light sessions. The light unlocked
her “frozen” feelings of grief , anger and despair, which had been preventing
her from feeling. The inner child work supported this process. She worked on
letting go (Yellow) of her grief and negative feelings and thoughts and on getting in contact again with her self-worth and trust in herself (Violet)
The Inner child work and the systemic family constellation also had a
strong impact in her regaining balance, joy and a new sense of inner stability.
Client – Feedback during Treatment
Elizabeth noticed during color light sessions that when she was looking at
a single color this color seemed to disappear for a while as if she was drinking
it away (This happens when the client is in strong need of a color or the color
is “blocked” in the Hygeia Color chart) feelings of forgiveness emerged. Violet
was important. Green and Blue felt very relaxing.
The Hygeia Color Chart showed the yellow spine colors to be blocked. Yellow as needed color - felt to be difficult to find - was seen very pale at first. (This
happens when color is “blocked”) In the first session Elizabeth experienced a
vibrating sensation in her body. She had the feeling of being refreshed, as after
a rain shower or after drinking a glass of cool mineral water.
Client Feedback after Treatment
Elizabeth wrote me an email after the 6th session, in which she thanked
me for again feeling joy and happiness. She said she did not need further sessions, because she was busy with her new life!
Outcomes
Elizabeth went through a tremendous quick process of transformation in
only 11 weeks. Combining the color/ light sessions with inner child work and a
family constellation proved to be very effective.
Elizabeth completely recovered from her physical and emotional fatigue
and near depression. She managed to let go of her stuck feelings of anger and
grief which made room in general for all her feelings. She regained trust and
25
self-esteem and the capability of feeling joy came back into her life.

Client Description /commencement Date
Male Age 32
Simon’s (name changed) presenting condition was depression and lack of
focus. His depression, he felt, was also connected to his HIV+ status, despite
various drug combinations his blood count and viral load (amount of HIV virus
present in the blood) had not changed in 4 years.
Practitioner - Observations
Simon expressed a variety of emotions during the sessions, which is
something I was aware that he was not used to doing. In the first session he
was quite sceptical as to whether he would experience anything at all, during
the first session he had a strong somatic reaction to red light, which he felt in
his stomach. I invited him to stay with the feeling, and he went on to imagine a
story of a young man committing suicide due to not being able to be with the
person he loved, he understood straight away the connection and symbolism
between the story and his own life, and how a part of him today had also given
up on life after the ending of an intense relationship. The last thing the young
man in Simon’s story saw before he took his final breath was his blood running
down his arms, the young man’s final thought was “life is not worth living” This
statement was the first of many such revelations for Simon, which helped him
to understand the metaphorical roots of his presenting issues.
Client – Feedback during Treatment
After the 3rd session Simon reported that he had had one of his regular
blood tests and check-ups, he told me that for the first time in 4 years his white
blood cell count had increased and the HIV virus had decreased. He also was
feeling more energetic and hopeful about life. He told me that he wasn’t expecting anything like this to happen and said that he had originally come for a
session more out of curiosity than expecting anything to actually work.
Client Feedback
By exploring Simon’s likes/dislikes of color through colored light we were
able to determine which colors made Simon feel calm and peaceful and which
ones caused a negative feeling or discomfort, we then used his extreme dislike
of red as a somatic bridge into a psychodramatic regression to understand the
connection between his dislike of red and his presenting condition. Through
Jungian active imagination Simon created and acted out many stories, the majority of these stories had the common theme of main character dying young
and without hope. In each story red was clearly present in some form or another, either as blood, or the color of flag or a lover’s dress.
At the fourth and final session Simon told me that he did not want to continue further with our work. He said he realised that since being HIV+ he had
gotten more attention from his family than he had ever had before. He told me
that he realized that there was the possibility that if we continued our work he
could actually improve his HIV status and the thought of not having it and not
having his parents’ attention was too much of a risk.
No matter how much I talked with Simon nothing would change his mind.
I felt admiration for his determination and clear mindedness and equally sad
that this was the only way Simon could see of getting his needs met.
When I asked him if the therapy had been useful for him, he said that he
felt more positive and had gained a better understanding of his emotional and
psychological reactions to his HIV. He said that his dislike of red had reduced
considerably and he could now experience it as a color representing life rather
than loss and death.

The last I heard of Simon was that he was building a stronger and healthier relationship with his parents and talking more openly with them about his

the three year study of IACC and founded the Institute of Colour and Style
where she is still the CEO since the late 1980s (see www.farbe-und-stil.at).
Being aware of the great impact colour and light may have on people she
started to experiment with coloured light which led to the development of
the Coloured Light Pyramid and finally to the foundation of CHORAM light.

Client Description /Commencement Date
Female DOB 11/11/1981
This young woman came to me as she was suffering from secondary
amenorrhoea. She had not had her period for more than three months and
her doctor wanted to start with hormone therapy. As she refused such an invasive treatment, she wanted to try out sessions in the Coloured Light Pyramid.
Details of Treatment
After having found out which colours would fit her case we started with
colour sessions. During the first week she had sessions every day for 20 minutes. The second week 5 sessions, third and fourth week 4 sessions and the last
two weeks she had one or two sessions per week. The main colours used were
red, amber/orange and violet. Altogether the program lasted for six weeks. A
total of 26 sessions.
Practitioner observations
After two sessions starting with red (630-660nm) I realised that traumatic
experiences popped up and I introduced violet as an additional colour. This had
a relaxing effect. Afterwards the young lady chose orange instead of red, which
she preferred. Sometimes she chose green also.
Client Feedback
After the first session I knew this could help though I did not quite feel at
ease with red at the beginning. Violet had a really soothing impact on me and

Presenting Condition
When he was 12 hours old a failed attempt at an IV line insertion resulted
in necrosis at the end of his index finger and thumb – looking like frost bite.
The doctors believed that in time the end of the finger and thumb would drop
off – or they’d operate and amputate the ends.
I had to receive permission to treat Mason because he was still in ICU
since he was premature.
Lights of various colour applied directly to the ends of the finger and
thumb, taking signals from the baby to gauge the length of time that he required each light.

The thumb was the first to recover. The
index finger is growing out from under

Duration of Treatment
Treated Mason initially 3-4 times per week. Each time I treated him my actions were noted on his records by a nurse. The treatments went on for about
9 weeks – four of which he was at home – at which time I moved the frequency
from once to twice per week.
Delivery of Treatment
At times the treatments would fail to show any response from Mason. At
these times I would treat his mother. There was a direct correlation between
the fatigue of the mother and the responsiveness of the baby. I began to treat
the mother at the beginning of each session and finish off with the treatment

Client Description /Commencement Date
Female Age 19 DOB 22/10/1987
Presenting Condition
The client was referred for treatment by a registered nurse at the center
who was a family friend of the client’s and had known her most of her life.
The client had a long history of depression and anxiety. She was socially withdrawn and isolated from family, peers and strangers. She had numerous physical complaints and had verbalized that she thought she was dying.
eye contact, made no spontaneous verbalization, and responded to questions
or comments with a minimal response.
Client-Feedback during Treatment:
When I asked how the client was doing she typically responded, “OK”. I
thought she was not responding but feedback provided by the mother via the
referring RN indicated that she began responding with the first session and
made excellent progress. After the first session she told her mother that she
didn’t know what was in the lights but she had never felt better. She went out
that night to a night club with her friends and was more outgoing and engaging
than she had ever been. She even initiated conversation with several strangers. With the sessions her outlook became brighter. She was less anxious and
stopped having various physical complaints and no longer mentioned a fear of
dying. She has continued to be more outgoing with her friends and more open
and engaging with her family. Both the mother and the referring registered
nurse were amazed and pleased with her progress.
Client Feedback:
The graph below of one of the assessments shows response over time.
All other assessments showed similar patterns of not only holding her level of
improvement but continuing to improve.
Outcomes:
Three years after treatment the client continues to be symptom free. She
is actively involved with her family and friends. She has been steadily employed since the termination of treatment and she is now happily married with
a one year old child. Although she has never indicated so to me, she has told
her mother that she attributes her changes to the light sessions.
Details of Treatment:
Only modality used was light sessions. Twelve colors were used and they were
projected to the abdomen area and to the crown of the head. The client was
alone in a darkened room and seated in a recliner. The order of the presentation of the colors, the length of time each color was presented was determined
by the computer program and was based on the colors the client selected in
the color preference test. The color preference test was administered prior to
each session. Session length was 27 minutes weekly. From 4/30/2008 through
6/2/2008 with a total number of treatments being six.

Male and Female Age between ages 30 - 60
Practitioner - Observations
A Kirlian picture takes the bioelectrical emission of fingers and toes and
projects it on a photo paper. It reveals many levels of a human being. The interpretations were developed in Germany (mainly by Peter Mandel and a team
of scientists around Prof. Fritz-Albert Popp) through the careful observation of
more than 3 million pictures over the last 40 years. From these observations a
detailed topography of the finger and toes energy emission patterns was created. The layers one can look at in a Kirlian picture include the informational,
energetic and physical levels.

Introduction
This study describes a research done on the effects of the Sensora integrative multi-sensorial therapy tool, using Kirlian photography Emission Analysis according to the method developed by Peter Mandel. A total of 24 subjects
each experienced one of two types of Sensora sessions. Kirlian photos of each
subject were taken before and after the 20-minutes long session, and their
differences were analyzed to evaluate the effects of the session at the three
interpretation levels of Peter Mandel’s Esogetic Medicine.
Details of Treatment:
Each subject followed this study protocol:
1. A 15-minutes presentation was given to each subject, enabling him/
her to understand the nature of the Sensora session
2. Pre-session Kirlian photos were taken
3. A 20-minutes Sensora session was given
4. Post-session Kirlian photos were taken
Each Subject received one of the following two types of Sensora sessions:
Session Type #1: Relaxation (“Aqualight” Core Session was selected. It is a
soft, delicate and deep session based on the water element)
Session Type #2: Color Balancing (based on the color system developed by
the “Van Obberghen Color Institute” from Switzerland)

At first when the client was very troubled the frequency was once a

Biography:
I have worked with Aura- Soma for over 20 years now and the mirror of
colour is still fascinating to look into and brings relief and support on many
of life’s journeys
Client Description /Commencement Date
Female Age 19
In 2008 My client came to me in quite a confused state. It was not the first
time we had met professionally and so I could clearly see her decline.
She had trouble finding words, was lost in her own thoughts, frightened
and her sentences were confused. She had taken a year off to travel and went
to South America where she fell under the spell of a strange religious community and a ‘nice’ young man with whom she’d fallen in love.
Luckily she was staying with family part of the time and they sent her
home as they sensed what was happening. Here she had psychiatric treatment
as well as Aura- Soma.
She came to see me and use Aura- Soma regularly. Over the following
years.
So far the number of treatments has been many and still support of consultation is needed.
Practitioner - Observations
I saw that from a very confused state a very observant and serious young
women arose. Someone with perseverance, intelligence and one who can now
reflect upon her behaviour and issues of dependency. She still needs to let
herself experience fun.
Even though this client’s process has not yet ended, many have benefitted
from three or fewer sessions and find the oils very supportive in their daily life.
With the two photos below I want to briefly illustrate the change in 4 sessions.
In the first one we see in a first position an all-orange bottle. This shows
us the client is in great distress, shock even. She continued to choose that same
bottle the 2nd and 3rd session without recollecting she had done so before. The
4th session we see a different bottle in the first position. This bottle is called
Florence Nightingale and shows us that even though there is still a lot of confusion, there is healing as well. This is indicated by the magenta.
Many sessions and even a fall back to the orange have passed, but the
client has stopped medication completely last year and now uses Aura Soma to
support her development into a stable young woman.
Description of a Session:
The sessions began with a short meditation and the client made a bottle
selection of 4 bottles. This is the diagnostic phase as my client described what
the colour combinations meant or represented to her. Tuning in more to the
colours, information flowed to me as well as the energy support of the bottles
to speak to her.
Client – Feedback during Treatment
My client was very precise and experienced. She spoke of a warm or tingling feeling when applying the oil to her body. The first few times this was not
the case or she was not able to describe it yet. Still, she kept on coming as she
did feel the support on a mental level as she mentioned it was calming her.
The colours can bring deep awareness and that often leads to tears of relief or
very deep insights. Which happened a few times during the sessions of the first

modulation” technology embedding pulsations within light projections, allowing interaction with brainwaves and other psychophysiological rhythms. Sensora installations have been in clinical use since 2011, with sites in depressiontreatment and public health centres.
Practitioner - Observations during Treatment
Subject loved the first session and came out of it very happy and relaxed,
with a big smile, wondering if she will sleep better that night. Two days later
she reported that from this first night onward she slept very well (uninterrupted nights) without any medication. The depth and quality of her sleep changed
and were better than she had felt since two years.
Client Feedback after Treatment
Subject feels her insomnia and anxiety problems have disappeared after
3 sessions, and therefore can discontinue treatment.
Outcomes
Currently 2 months later, subject continues sleeping well without medication, and her related anxiety is gone. She is now more active and participates
in creativity group sessions in the community centre. Her energy feels generally uplifted and she is well adapted to her new home.
Client Description /Commencement Date
Female Age 73 commencement of treatment April 2013
Subject was diagnosed 2 years ago with bladder cancer for which she received radiotherapy and underwent surgery. Since then she suffers from chronic insomnia. Following her husband’s death, she then had to sell her house and
move to an apartment in the city; this has triggered chronic anxiety as well. She
was prescribed antianxiety medication (Ativan). Due to the insomnia, surgery
and radiotherapy, her energy level is low and she feels constantly tired.

Biography:
A full professor since 1996 at the University of Haifa, Departments of Biology and Evolutionary & Environmental Biology, chairperson of the Department
of Natural Resources & Environmental Management, School of management
University of Haifa. Head of the Israeli Center for Interdisciplinary Research in
Chronobiology, University of Haifa. Has a Ph.D. in Environmental Zoology (Ecophysiology) from, The Hebrew university of Jerusalem, Israel (1976). Post Doctoral research at the Mammal Research Institute (MRI) University of Pretoria,
South Africa. For many years studied daily rhythms and seasonality metabolic
and thermoregulatory mechanisms in rodents from different environments. I
have studied with colloquies and students the mechanisms of coexistence of
Acomys species from extreme arid habitats. In recent years studied I also studied the environmental signals for reproduction in desert adapted rodents. For
the last 13 years I am involved in research of light pollution and its impact on
rodents and human health. I have published with colleagues and students over
170 papers in pre-reviewed journals. Recently, published a book with Portnov
on light pollution breast and prostate cancers.
Short wavelength illumination
should not be used during scotophase
lumination. Can we researchers and light therapists ignore this resolution? The
answer should be no. We can ask, why short wavelength (SWL) illumination is
toxic? The answer is, because it suppresses pineal melatonin (MLT) production, which occurs, during scotophase under dark conditions. LED technology
is entering our habitats not only by direct illumination sources but also, from
all modern devices we use such as TV, computers cell phones and their derivatives which are becoming an integral part of our bedroom. LED has a dominant
emission of SWL and therefore it will suppress MLT production. MLT as a hormone is considered a “Jack of all trades” and among others it is an anti breast
cancer (BC) agent and facilitates the immune system function and involved in
sleep.
In a study carried out in our center, short day (SD) acclimated female mice
were inoculated with 4T1 BC-cells and exposed to LAN at an intensity of 450
lux with a dominant wave length of about 470 nanometers for 30 min, at the
middle of their scotophase. Post-mortem tests revealed metastases which did
not appear in the group of LAN exposed mice treated with MLT. This result
supports the fact that MLT can avoid metastases evolving from BC. Bearing
in mind that BC does not start from a million modified cells at once, it seems
MLT plays a crucial role in avoiding BC and its metastases. As a result, the question to be asked, is this worth the possible saving of energy and CO2 emission, which can be done by using more sustainable way for illuminating? Light
therapists should definitely be aware of the negative effects of suppressing
MLT in regards to sleep quality and the function of our immune system. All artificial light illumination at night should be reassessed in order to minimize the
suppression of pineal MLT production. Furthermore, SWL-illumination characterizes midday illumination as in the afternoon the long wavelength illumination is dominant, by using SWL illumination we also disrupt our daily rhythms,
which govern our lives and are entrained not only by light intensity but also by
wavelength. Environmental and health agencies should support research on
the negative impact of SWL illumination on the one hand and development
of new sustainable illumination on the other, as most of us will not want to go
back to living in a dark night. Furthermore, strict regulations should be used
in decreasing light pollution not only in urban areas by dimming the light and
using it where we need it.
The aggressive introduction of so called “Environmentally Friendly Illumination” in order to reduce CO2 emission from electrical power stations, by
the use of more efficient and energy saving illumination should be reassessed.
The increasing use of LED as a source for artificial night illumination should be
of great concern in regards to health issues. A year ago the American Medical
Association (AMA) passed a resolution that light at night (LAN) is a source of
pollution and among others they call upon developing new technologies for il-

Outcomes – Practitioner Update on outcomes
Mu delta (yellow green) has a pressure lowering affect in the majority of
patients - 9 out of 11 patients or 82%. The average lowering of pressure using
mu delta was 5 mm Hg and this effect persisted for 4 hours after a brief 10
minute exposure. These results confirmed the study reported by Zaretskaya in
the American Journal of Ophthalmology in 1948.
Green light should be considered a safe alternative in the treatment of
glaucoma. More research needs to done regarding varying the intensity and
duration of the light to see if there is an additional effect.

Introduction – Presenting Condition -
These patients were recruited from my practice and from readers of the
Healing the Eye Newsletters. Patients involved in the study were instructed to
continue all glaucoma medications and were required to be in the office all day
after a 10 minute exposure of green light.
Method of Study
There were 11 patients in the study. The Average age 72.6. Range was
between 55-84 years of age. There was only one patient not using any glaucoma medications, 7 patients were using at least one medication and 3 patients
with one or more medications.
Before application of light, the intraocular pressure was measured using
a Goldman tonometer. 10 minutes of light treatment with Syntonic Light of mu
delta at an intensity of 1.4 lux was administered. Pressures were then measured at 30 minutes and then every hour until pressures returned to baseline.
