Thread Name: BS: Science and New Age: Bridging the chasm
Subject: RE: BS: Science and New Age: Bridging the chasm
I posted the information above for two reasons:

1) to help provide readers with accurate scientific and first-hand information about so-called "New Age" spiritual/energetic healing methods, and

2) to help illustrate that the only "chasm" which exists between Science and the so-called "New Age" is the one which may (or may not) exist in the mind of the perceiver.

Yes, I do love personally experiencing and observing the benefits in others of studying, practicing and teaching techniques like Reiki and Huna. Doing something for love is, I suppose, in some ways self-serving (because it feels so good!), but I am honestly not trying to "sell" anyone anything here.

If readers with no first-hand experience of these techniques choose not to believe or accept anything I've posted here as truth, that's not only their privilege but it's perfectly understandable.
