Is there any evidence that distant healing works? And just what is distant healing?Distant healing is also called remote healing, absent healing or distance healing.
It takes place when one or more healers send energy or thought vibrations in an intentional focused manner, pray for, or meditate for someone in need who may be nearby or thousands of miles away.
Like noted psychic healer Edgar Cayce at the beginning of the century there are now many practitioners of this particular esoteric art that claim to be proficient in sending spiritual energy to heal others often over great distances.
Rosemary Altea, Rosalyn Bruyere and Carolyne Myss are some other famous healers.
Today these healers come from many backgrounds with varying levels of skill and training.
There are reiki teachers, mystics, psychic healers, charismatic christians, shamans or medicine men, curanderos, curanderas, intuitives, indigo children, yogi masters, channellers, chi and chakra manipulators, wiccans, silva mind control experts, graduates of healing schools, including Barbara Brennan's famous one, as well as many others from all walks of life who just happen to have a knack for getting in touch with their own or other divine forces and magically helping others by sending or beaming that powerful spiritual energy.
Some healers call on divine intervention, a specific angel or god, or channel spirit guides or entities through to do the healing.
Others just concentrate on sending loving energy or positive thoughts to the healee.
Though all the processes differ the end result wished for is the same; heal someone at a distance.
The internet has helped to facilitate the process of distant healing by making it easier for the healers to get in touch with those that need to be healed.
In fact there are sites that you can visit that will allow you to make a request for distant healing and have others send loving energy to help manifest the desired outcome.
Some of the distance healing sites require payment some are free.
If the proof is in the pudding then there is more than ample testimonial evidence that this distance healing works.
Check out any of the hundreds of distance healing websites around the globe and you'll be greeted with hundreds and hundreds of glowing testimonials from those who claim to have been helped by distant healers, energy senders, psychics and those who have come together to offer intercessory prayer.
Even if you eliminate a number of the testimonials as being a result of coincidence, fraud, or hype you are still left with a plethora of folks who firmly believe that they have been helped and healed as a result of this spiritual energy sending.
But is there any real scientific evidence that this phenomenon is real? Actually, there are now numerous studies pointing to the efficacy of this energy medicine.
In fact, in randomized controlled studies this healing technique has demonstrated significant effects in humans, animals, plants, cells and dna.
Daniel J.
Benor, M.
D.
, revealed that two prime studies done on hundreds of cardiac patients in intensive care units showed those that were sent healing prayers had considerable improvement compared to the group that was not.
In a study conducted on AIDs patients by Elisabeth Targ, Fred Sicher and 7 others, Benor noted that those who had had experienced energy senders send them spiritual energy showed marked improvement compared to the control group.
Over a twenty year stretch Dr.
William Braud ran thirty experiments involving over 650 sessions and concluded that it is possibloe for one persons mental processes to telepathically affect that of another person, at a distance and directly.
And, in Russia, Dr.
Edwin May and Larissa Vilenskaya's research shows that a distant mental influencer can have great effect on other living systems in addition to people.
And, as has been noted, the distance energy effect can be utilized with animals as well.
In a study involving mice it was found that distance healers were able to wake up designated anaesthetized mice more quickly than the control mice.
But that compelling evidence for distant healing is just the tip of the iceberg.
Cutting edge research involving quantum physics in conjunction with more detailed studies conducted by both physicists and doctors is beginning to paint a broad picture.
This picture reveals that the thoughts of one person not only has a direct effect on their own life but can also have an influence on the lives of those they think about.
With this in mind you might want to start thinking more positively about yourself, your fellow man, your animals and even your plants as well.
It could start to move you in a more positive direction and cause others to think about you in a more positive light as well.
At the very least it couldn't hurt.
