Do prayers and positive thoughts actually change anything — or are they just words we say to feel better? In this episode, medical intuitive and spiritual teacher Laura Alden Kamm sits down with her sister, Dr. Christine Deitz, PhD, a retired gifted education facilitator, National Board Certified educator, and Associate Director of the Jody Mahoney Center for Gifted Education at the University of Arkansas, to explore what really happens when we ask someone to pray for us — or when we send prayers and positive energy their way.
Together they dig into the mind-body connection behind intention, prayer, and distant healing: what shifts in the body when we receive a prayer request, what changes when we consciously send positive thoughts outward, and why so many of us feel something — a tightening, a release, a quiet lift — in both directions. Drawing on decades of experience in intuitive healing, energy work, and human development, Laura and Christine offer a grounded, thoughtful look at a question that touches nearly everyone: does spiritual intention have a measurable effect on wellbeing?
Whether you're drawn to prayer, meditation, energy healing, or simply curious about the science and spirit behind human connection, this conversation will change how you think about the words "sending prayers." Tune in for an honest, moving exploration of intention, intuition, and the invisible threads that connect us all.
