Since less is more in Homeopathy wouldn't a 10x overdose be 1/10 of a pill not 10 pills.

So I had a cold and I took this homeopatic drug and the cold was gone after a week or so. Amazing!

@Diosukekun Quantum healing is just an invention of some charlatans that try to give their "powers" a scientific edge. No, you can´t change their mood just by thinking of them. That´s just mumbo jumbo. What evidence¿

[Diosukekun]

@ebrobaru so to change your "mood" you don't have to influence particles? have you never changed the "mood" of somebody else by how you think of them? research shows that positive expectations by others have an immensly positive effect on how well people perform. why shouldn't that include sick people's healing capabilities? all the evidence points towards that. why not try to get as much out of this effect as possible by making a science of it? that science is quantum healing

[ebrobaru]

@Diosukekun I agree completely with the placebo effect and that your attitude towards things indeed help to set the mood. Now, to say that we can actually influence particles individually to do this ot that, that´s another story

[Diosukekun]

@ebrobaru well, they are influenced by observing them and through consciousness we can specifically direct our attention towards some things and away from others, therefore directly influencing reality. do you know of the placebo effect? i think it can be explained that way. you think positively about things, and you positively influence reality that way. it can even cure cancer. you think negatively and you become depressed and sick

[ebrobaru]

@Diosukekun You are right at first, but then you just are misinterpreting the facts. That you can directly influence them is long long way to being proven, just an interesting theory. The double slit experiment is a good example of how particles behave in the quantum world. Not that they can be manipulated by our thoughts

[Diosukekun]

@ebrobaru it's the smallesst bits that all matter is made from and it's waves and vibrations, not particles. they are influenced by observing them, but you can also directly and willingly influence them with your conscious mind. it means the way we think about the world has an actual influence on the physical world. our brains are quantum manipulation devices. the double slit experiment offers some good evidence for this

[ebrobaru]

@Diosukekun Do you even know what quantum even means?

[llwayneio]

@newhealingdimensions Im not suprised that thetahealers agree with you, they make money from this nonsense, they are hardly likely to admit that there is no evidence to support it. Care to elaborate on these 'many forces' which we don't understand but you seemingly do? I'll go out on a whim and guess that these are magical BS waves which only you are aware of and one last thing, rhelm is not a word.

[Diosukekun]

quantum healing does work though, by activating your body's innate self-healing capabilities. you just have to think positively, take some time for yourself and permit unnecessary stressors to leave your system. inner disharmonies in our cosmic vibrations are what make us sick. spend more time in nature to reestablish your natural balance. let the quanta revitalize your body and soul. a special quantum channeling device isn't necessary, but can greatly speed up the process

[halloranedward]

she used the word "quantum" and "proof" Good enough for me !
