Prayer increases forgiveness, study shows

Prayer Increases Forgiveness Between Couples (click here)

Here is an interesting study published in the journal of the American Psychological Society - Psychological Science - on the power of simple prayer for one another in a relationship and how it shifts the focus from self to the other person and results in forgiveness. I see this research as a metaphor for why distant Reiki (or other forms of) healing can help others move forward in their lives, get better and heal!
