Found this video on youtube. It's called the Shen Technique. I gave the technique a try just for the hell of it. It's a strange thing at first and I don't know how much is placebo effect from expecting something from it, but it really did something for me. I usually have horrible test anxiety, so I did this technique and it pretty much went away. It's like the emotion dissolved on it's own, I didn't have to do anything. The other strange thing was I woke up this morning with an awful head cold, feeling really spaced out, sneezing, stuffy nose, and headache. After I did the technique I felt a surge in my head almost and my sinuses cleared up and I got a lot of energy.
Give it a shot for yourselves, I'd be interested to know how it makes you guys feel. I'm pretty skeptical of stuff like this, so I'm going to continue experimenting with it. I'm thinking it might be the power of suggestion and the ritual that's performed is to trick you conscious mind to trust in an imaginary outside force so your subconscious mind can access it's own healing powers. Then again it could be energy, though like I said I'm skeptical of the whole energy therapy thing.
