Bullshit.  The first step in dealing with reality is acknowledging it.
Reality is non-negotiable  If your perception is at odds with empirical
evidence, you're crazy.

Here is a scientific study demonstrating benefits of laying on of hands to
mice with transplanted breast cancer:

Here is a method of laying-on-of-hands spiritual healing:

The person receiving healing should sit in a chair.

The healer stands behind the chair and places his hands on the shoulders of
the sitter.

The intention to heal is all that is necessary for healing to begin.
However the healer may visualize healing light coming down from God onto him
and then through his hands to the sitter. Alternatively, the healer can
mentally repeat a prayer asking for healing to occur. In self-healing the
sitter would do this for himself.

It is not necessary to touch the sitter. If receiver is bedridden the healer
and receiver may hold hands or the healer may just sit or stand near the
receiver.

This can continue for any amount of time, 5 to 20 minutes would be typical.
Repeat as often as desired, daily among family members or weekly from a
dedicated healer is typical. Do not expect miraculous results. Healing is
not synonymous with curing. Do not promise results. Do not make medical
diagnoses unless you have a license to do so. Results may come in unexpected
ways and times. Healing may manifest in acceptance of the condition or other
alternative experiences.

The healing does not come from the healer, it comes through him from a
higher source. The healer should be in a relaxed, alert, meditative state,
his mind should not be racing or wandering wildly, nor should it be alseep.
He should be physically and mentally relaxed and in good health. If he is
upset and cannot relax or (except in self healing) is in ill health, the
healing session should be
postponed.

Many different types of healing methods exist and the method that has proven
most effective for a given condition should be preferred. Therefore
spiritual healing is not a substitute for mainstream medicine, but it can be
used in conjunction with mainstream medical treatments.  Spiritual healing
may be be tried to help alleviate the side effects of drug or chemical
therapies, for recovery from surgery, for conditions where there is no
mainstream treatment, or mainstream treatment has proven ineffective. Always
advise your sitters to see a doctor if they have a serious condition.

Anyone can do this. Psychic ability is not required or even an indicator of
healing ability. The sitter does not need faith, it can be used on animals
and infants who do not understand anything about it.

Family members of the chronically ill can do this for their loved ones.

Spiritual healing is completely natural to human beings. Every parent who
has held a sick child and wished for its recovery has performed this type of
healing.

The more you practice healing the more effective you will become. The best
healers will have a sincere desire to help others with no thought of reward
or recognition.

You can give healing to those not present simply by sitting quietly,
entering a meditative state of mind, and  praying for healing to be given to
those you name. You may also visualize them in vigorous good health. The
length of time for healing would be the same as for laying on
of hands. It is typical to do this daily. You can heal more than one person
during a session by naming each person individually.

Just remember: The correct application of the healing force is in the spirit
of love.

"In 1992, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) created the Office of
Alternative Medicine.  The experts in this office found that Therapeutic
Touch has one of the strongest research bases of any of the
alternative/complementary modalities.  There are over two dozen doctoral
dissertations, dozens of master's theses, and many post-doctoral studies,
several of which have been funded by NIH. Research continues at a rigorous
pace in institutions of higher learning throughout the country.  TT is
accepted in a growing number of hospitals and universities throughout the
US, Canada and around the world."  - Nurse Healers Professional Associates

Hi, Kei'ko,

do you know how to block senders?

select a message from someone who is sending annoying messages

On outlook express select from the menu bar:

Message->block sender

Then no new messages from that sender will be downloaded

then you can also use the delete key to remove any message from that person
that you have already downloaded.

It is better not to reply to anyone who is annoying as it just encourages
them, once you have them blocked you will not know they are there.
