[QUOTE="Spiker, post: 540550, member: 102150"] Ok here is a strange experience. I went on a course to learn Reiki. This is an esoteric healing technique. I am primarily rational in my outlook, evidence based, scientific, etc. But people had done Reiki on me and it made me feel better so I thought I would learn how to do it on myself. What happened was that my insulin correction factor (ISF) jumped overnight from 1:1.5 to nearly 1:3, the highest it has ever been before or since, and remained there for several weeks, dropping slowly to 1:2 for several months, which is about as good as it ever gets when I am super healthy. The other thing I did at the same time was stop caffeine cold turkey, no other health changes. Whether it was the caffeine or the Reiki, it was an incredibly dramatic overnight change with clear and consistent physical evidence. I have wondered if what happened was a sudden reduction in my overall stress levels. Both the Reiki and the caffeine cessation could have contributed to that. But I think it was more the Reiki because I could reliably increase my ISF at any time just by doing a single treatment. Very strange.
