A friend of mine showed me this article last night.
Obviously it's been around for a while, but being down this end of the ball, we don't get to hear much about stuff like this until it's passe.
I didn't know whether to laugh at the absurdity (there seems to be a great deal of it. Suggesting people OM together in a professional environment as a tool for of conflict resolution? Um...no) or be slightly intrigued.
I suspect a lot of my attitude comes from both my automatic dislike of anything that seems faddish and slickly marketed (I don't own a single Apple product) and personal discomfort with the idea of random people touching me in an intimate fashion. I have massive personal space issues, so suspect that a lot of the 15 minutes would consist of trying to make myself stop freaking out and actually let the person come within five feet.
But what if? The science seems to have some basis in validity. Could this actually be of some benefit?
What do you reckon? Fad or fantastic? Potential for abuse? Could people ever get over their in built puritan long enough to be non judgemental and actually make it standard practice in daily life, as the founder suggests?
