That is really good advice. I know from experience that it's true. It's just
hard for me to get in touch with that stuff since I have spent so many years
trying to block out what is happening with my body so I can just keep
functioning. During testing, I can sense the colors that make things way worse
and communicate that. Some colors improve my vision and help my eyes to work
together, some don't and some make it worse. It's the process of narrowing down
the choices on the better colors to those that help best with my neurological
problems that gets hard. I usually have to have someone else watch me during
the testing procedure and see if they can tell what will work by outward signs
of relaxation versus tension or tremors and whether my reading, speech and
coordination improve or get worse with the different colors. With some colors I
speak more fluidly, others slow everything down but I am so focused on the
process of speaking or reading that it is hard for me to monitor myself.

when your head doesnt hurt looking through them. dont think to much just let
your body tell you what feels good looking through them. some you wont be able
to tell but the person helping you will help you through it. at first they might
need to screen you mutiple times and you might need to go back several times to
change the color but once you got the color that works for you there might be
only tini changes as your body changes as you get older year to year.

testing and looking through the colors some colors will make your head hurt more
and some will relax you. go with what relaxes you.
