At Loving Victorious Beings, we believe color is more than beauty—it is frequency and nature’s answer to wellbeing. Science is now catching up to what ancient wisdom has long known: light—specifically colored light—can profoundly impact the human brain and emotional body.
A 2008 study by Radeljak et al. confirms what we call the Color Truth: chromotherapy influences the brain’s neurohormonal system, particularly the regulation of melatonin and serotonin, the two key hormones responsible for mood, emotional regulation, and sleep. We are reviewing this study for you here.
How Color Light Interacts with Your Brain’s Rhythms
Your body runs on light. Specifically, it synchronizes with the circadian rhythm—your internal clock, governed by a small area of the brain called the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) in the hypothalamus. This clock interprets visible light wavelengths and adjusts your hormonal rhythms accordingly.
When the natural light-dark cycle is disrupted—by stress, screens, or city life—your body stops producing melatonin at night (affecting sleep), and serotonin during the day (affecting joy and mental clarity). Over time, this imbalance can contribute to:
-
Depression
-
Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)
-
PTSD
-
Sleep Disorders
What the Study Found: Light Color as a Neurohormonal Activator
The study highlights the specific biological responses triggered by colored light:
-
Blue wavelengths (especially around 460–480 nm) suppress melatonin and enhance alertness, attention, and mood—ideal for morning or midday use.
-
Red and amber/orange light have minimal to no melatonin-suppressing effects, making them ideal for nighttime or stress recovery. They also naturally block blue light, helping the body initiate melatonin release and prepare for rest while activating many healing biochemical processes in the body over night.
-
Green light, in the middle of the color spectrum, offers a balancing effect—calming the nervous system while gently stabilizing emotions.
The core hypothesis: different colors “activate” or “inhibit” brain functions, acting on neurotransmitters and hormone cycles. That means you can wear color to shift your inner chemistry—consciously and intentionally.
Color Therapy Glasses: Wearable Light Medicine
At LVB, we’ve translated this science into something you can wear, feel, and embody: our Color Therapy Glasses. Each pair uses meticulously developed lens technology to support your neurohormonal balance—on your terms.
Here are our current offerings, develoed guided by the latest in Color Therapy science:
Olivelo
A grounding green-gold. Olivelo helps soothe the nervous system, offering clarity and calm in overstimulating environments. Perfect for finding equilibrium. Scientific research also found that it can significantly help to reduce pain from migrain and fibromyalgia as well as speeding up physical recovery after surgery.
La Vie en Rose
Our signature euphoric filter. This rose tint enhances beauty perception and joy, boosting serotonin naturally through a softened and beautifying visual field.
Purple Haze
A unique pink / purple tone lens to foster inward clarity and inspired reflection. Calms the mind, relaxes the body and supports creative states.
Baja Orange
A warm, comforting orange tone great for day-to-night transitions. Naturally blocks blue light and helps lower mental chatter while easing overstimulation.
Blue Heavens
Expansive like the sky—this gradient activates your system, while keeping you grounded. Ideal for late mornings and mental clarity.
And more: Pop Orange, Rosa, Caribbean Gold, Orange Skies, Electric Blue—each color fine-tuned to work with your body’s nervous system and hormonal rhythms.
How to Use Color Therapy for Maximum Impact
-
Morning: Use brighter tones like Electric Blue or Purple Haze to energize and support serotonin production.
-
Midday: Shift into Blue Heavens, La Vie en Rose or Olivelo to balance alertness with emotional ease.
-
Evening: Transition to orange- or red-based lenses like Baja Orange and Orange Skies to calm the nervous system, reduce blue light and support melatonin release.
Light is a Frequency.
Color is a Language.
Wear What You Need.
We are beings of light, and color is how we translate the world around us. Through Color Therapy Glasses, you have the ability to consciously shift your neurochemistry, your focus, your mood, and even your sleep cycles—just by changing what you see.
Explore the Science. Experience the Shift.
