Healthy Scepticism Is Good

Healthy Scepticism Is Good

Many people have scepticism when they see rapid healing. They are told that “there are no quick fixes” and anything contrary to that is a fraud somehow.

All this comes down to belief. People have a belief that any energy therapy or nutritional guidance don't work – they firmly believe that. They attack others who have a belief in, say, Quantum Touch, yet that is a belief!

If you have a belief that “it's too good to be true”, you are not alone. There are many people who think like that. Let's take a look at some historical examples:

“Heavier-than-air flying machines are impossible.” Lord Kelvin, President Royal Society

“Everything that can be invented has been invented.” Charles H. Duell, Director of U.S. Patent Office, 1899.

“Who in the heck wants to hear actors talk?” Henry M. Warner, Warner Brothers Pictures, 1927

You may not have scepticism about energy healing techniques but you will certainly encounters others who do. How will you handle them?

There have been times when a group of people have been brought on stage where healing occurred and the people admit to the audience that such was the case. The audience, who many were skeptics, agree that the healing occurred (as they believed those who told them). They believe those on stage, as it was a friend of theirs or a family member. However, there is a curious thing about their belief.

The people in the audience attributed such healing to one of the following:

• the people were hypnotised
• they were instilled with positive thinking
• they were ready to get over their problems anyway
• it was a quick fix
• the tapping was a distraction

Let's examine each one of them to see if this was the case:

Hypnosis – The person who was the practitioner knows nothing about hypnosis and neither does the person who said this was the reason.

Positive thinking – Those who do use positive thinking never saw such thinking work so fast – much less without using words that are positive.

They wanted to get rid of their problems – If this was the case, why didn't they get over their problem before they came on stage?

Quick fix – They take other drugs with a “quick fix in mind”, so why hasn't the drugs worked?

The tapping was a distraction – If it was a distraction of what the practitioner did, why were the clients told to “tune into their problems”?

With all the theories that the sketics came up with, the interesting things is “what they did not say”! They never attributed healing to EFT. If another modality was used, they never attributed to that.

A healthy skeptic would ask how such a process worked. How long would it last? Can anyone do it? They ignore the process and offer their ideas – or their “facts”.

People from all walks of life; from all education levels would make claims of how Quantum Touch works, for example, but not with what they are told at the beginning (that is, affecting energy on the quantum leve). It's not that these people are mean, it's just that it is not in their “standard reason” why things look like they work.

Those who had the healing done, admit that their pain went away, but some of the clients still don't give credit to the energy healing that was used.

I tell you this because after a session that you have yourself, you will be confronted with sceptics, or you, yourself will attribute the healing to something else.

Another reason why some people have a disbelief is the techniques used. With EFT, there is the tapping on the meridians points of the body. But with your knowledge of how psychology is suppose to work, this “tapping stuff” really looks weird. Therefore, it's got be something else.

You don't have to believe in these techniques for them to work – it will work regardless. However, there are some people who are so convinced that they will NOT work that, indeed, it won't work. Why is this? Because a strong belief can effect your health – for good or bad, depending on what you believe; it can over-ride the healing technique that is used on them.

In the beginning most people don't believe in EFT (or whatever healing modality issued), yet they work. This is how something like EFT got a foot-hold. Think about it, when anything new comes on the market, there are no believers (for the most part) – because it is new.

Say a person goes to an EFT practitioner for the first time, and they are neutral about the whole process, that's good; as healing will still occur.

All of this is pointed out for both clients and others who would like to be practitioners for you will meet people who have no believe and attribute the healing to something else.

Everything Is Made Up of Energy

Everything Is Made Up of Energy

How does energy healing work?

We don't know exactly but we have a good theory. For one, our body is made up of energy – in fact, everything is. This is a fact if you remember Einstein's E = mc 2. Our body is made of energy. When we walk across a carpet, shuffle our feet and then touch a piece of metal, we get a shock; there is an electrical discharge. This would not be possible of we were not able to conduct electricity – this is also a fact.

When we experience pain this is registered by an electrical signal to the brain. An electrical impulse is how we experience our senses.

What is an EKG? It's a measurement of the electrical activity of the brain.

We cannot see this electrical activity. But I say it's more than electrical, as our cells are effected when there is no connection at all. There has been experiments done where two cells from the same body is taken; one is subjected to stress and the other cell, located in another room registers it, too, and it registers it immediately. How can this be?

This is getting into the field of quantum physics. This is energy that exists within atoms; it is really this area that energy work is done. When observing quantum matter, experiments show that thoughts can affect the out come.

There are many things that we can't see but we know it exists – electricity is one. When you turn on a TV you have a picture and sound, yet you can't see. However, you know that it travels through the wires and through the set. However we go by the results to know that it's electricity. With energy healing of any kind, it might not be electricity as we know it but it's some other form of energy. We see the effects, in this case it is healing. When people don't feel pain or their fibromyalgia is gone, for example, we know that something is at work.

You don't have to know how Quantum Touch works in order to use and benefit from it. So, let's use it.
