Use Your Psychic Powers to Have It All: Release Your Psi-Force for Health, Wealth, Success & Peace of Mind

Self-proclaimed psychic and spoon bender Geller (Learn to Dowse) presents a broad, undercooked guide for developing one’s “Psi-Force” to be “content, secure and happy.” Geller starts with his own background, explaining how his powers of psychic disruption are not an illusion but have been present since childhood—he was even studied at Lawrence Livermore Laboratory for his supposed ability to interfere with computers. Geller reveals methods of harnessing psychic energy, like imagining a television screen that receives and sends broadcasts, and provides exercises to develop psychic powers—such as having a friend trace lines above the palm while one tries to “sense the shape,” meditation practices, and keeping a “Psi-diary” to record synchronicities and progress. Despite an opening disclaimer that “no therapeutic or medical claims have been implied or made,” chapters on health promote a “mind over matter” mentality in which positive thinking can “cure” diseases like depression and even cancer. Controversial studies are also offered as proof of psi-force healing, such as William Harris’s research into the positive effects of praying for others. While those who believe in psychic powers will be bowled over by Geller’s story, those skeptical of his claims will remain unconvinced by this underwhelming guide. (Oct.)
