I can understand why New Age beliefs are classified by some to be its own religion. Chances are, if you believe in psychics, then you also believe in a number of other things that seem to go along with that idea, such as LoA, ghosts, energy, reiki, acupuncture, chakras, etc. Basically, anything you find in the New Age section at Barnes & Noble bookstores. At this forum, I see it is rare for someone to believe in LoA but not believe in the other things.

I may have gone off topic a bit. Forgive my rambling.
I don't think you should believe anything, just try for yourself and find out. Have you had a Reiki treatment? Sure, you could block off progress, if you are a real skeptic, but most people have enough of an open mind to have some good effects from it Even if you are a skeptic, you might not feel the results, but there certainly will be some.
