At Spirit Fest in Virginia Beach, Will and Karen "sit down" with Doron Shalev, a chemistry professor, crystallographer, and self-described skeptic who found his way into energy healing through an unlikely source: a stack of pandemic reading that started with crystal science and ended with a Reiki master teacher certification.
Doron makes the scientific case for "woo," walking through the statistical thresholds researchers use to validate findings like the Higgs boson, and why many energy-healing studies actually clear a higher bar of statistical significance than science is willing to credit. The conversation turns personal when Doron describes healing his own arthritis through distance Reiki, a technique he says works better on himself than hands-on healing ever did. He also shares his shift from traditional Reiki symbols to Kabbalistic healing, using one of the 72 names of God in place of the Cho Ku Rei symbol, and describes how he reads chakra energy to figure out whether what he's sensing is emotional or physical.
It's a rare conversation between a scientist and two skeptics-turned-believers, all circling the same question: what happens when the data starts pointing somewhere science hasn't caught up to yet.
