Social:ThetaHealing
ThetaHealing (Theta Healing) is a process of mediation[1][2] that was developed in 1995 by Vianna Stibal and is based on the assumed influence of theta waves on people.[3][4]
Process
ThetaHealing is usually applied in the form of individual sessions in which the person and Theta guru sit directly opposite each other or talk on the phone.[5][6] The goal is to improve general well-being and health by freeing, as Vianna Stibal states, negative experiences, blocking thought patterns or genetically inherited patterns to create positive thinking.[7][8][2][2][9]
Training
A distinction is made between different consecutive ThetaHealing training levels eg, from the practitioner to the master.[10][11]
Philosophy
ThetaHealing's philosophy is what Vianna Stibal calls "the seven planes of existence". According to her, these levels of existence build a framework to show the importance of the "Creator of all that is” (whose upper level is also described as the "Place of perfect love"). In addition, its adherents are open to everyone, regardless of the person's origin or religion.[12]
Criticism
The philosophy of ThetaHealing is primarily criticized due to its esoteric-minded attitude.[13] In addition, the scientific invalidity of the ThetaHealing method is questioned and the promise of healing (given in English by the word Healing in the name) is strongly doubted.[14]
