Posting this because the sticky thread is fucked up, also because I wanted to ask a question but the damn thread wouldn't let me.
Is it possible to have a natural trait for healing, is this even a trait, or am I being dumb? I've done very little diving into this, but so far I'm simply trying The Book of Knowledge's Quiet Mind Meditation and similar meditation techniques, just for context, and this also comes up in a similar question.
As an example of what I mean, when I was a child my mother, one day, got incredibly upset for no reason. A sudden impulse within me made me gently put my little palm on her cheek, and in not even a second she was relieved and fine. Looking back on it now, I thought that y'know, this was just the bond between mother and son, but now here's a recent example:
My mother, one day, had a rather severe headache. We couldn't get any meds because poorfag + no gas in the car, but that sudden impulse hit me again. I gently put my palm on her head, and told her to focus and close her eyes, just like I was doing. As we focused, though, I suddenly felt a fuzzy feeling on my hand, but paid no mind to it once she felt better. From her perspective, the pain went down from an "11 to a 5 out of 10."
The same thing happens to my forehead when I attempt to meditate, or sometimes it just hurts like a bitch. Nonetheless, I can feel that fuzzy sensation slightly spread just over my eyebrows as well.
Apparently my mother, my grandmother, and my great-grandmother have/had the exact same "trait," though sadly that's as far as my roots go since the oldest one was adopted, plus it's hard for me to find old files like that.
