abilities (even those doubting-
Thomas physicians and attorneys)
to analyze his dreams and begin
paying attention to those nagging
doubts and curious thoughts that
seem to emanate from the pit of
the stomach. One also should cre-
ate a meditation center (Dr.
Orloff's features a small altar,
burning incense and candles).
Meditation, she says, helps one

love.
Orloff says, one can
learn to see through
"layer upon layer" of personality,
getting to the root cause of a dys-
function. So while your initial
sense of your neighbor — the one
who lets his dog use your lawn as
a bathroom and who calls you
names unprintable in a family
newspaper — is that he's a jerk,
there might be some painful as-
pects of his past that explain his
character today.
But don't go overboard with
this whole thing. Dr. Orloff recalls
t PARKER
a time when her empathetic skills
were so profound, "I couldn't go
into malls because I would pick
up so many bad vibrations." Sim-
ilarly, agoraphobics, those afraid
to be in public places, may be suf-
fering from an overdose of psychic
sensitivity. 'They don't realize that
they're picking up so much psy-
chic energy [outside]," Dr. Orloff
says.
Through her work, Dr. Orloff
has come to understand that the
most vital aspect of living is the
ability to love, she says. Like Deep-
ak Chopra, author and spiritual
guru to actress Demi Moore, she
believes people should be kinder
both to themselves and others. (In-
deed, Dr. Chopra offers a review
of Dr. Orloff's Second Sight as a
book that "sensitively merges the
spiritual and material worlds and
brings the reader in touch with
the deeper mysteries of life.")

But if you've already got
enough love in your life, or if
you're dead-set against em-
pathizing with your neighbor,
consider this benefit of develop-
ing your psychic skills: a good
sex life.
In a recent interview with Play-
girl magazine, Dr. Orloff said she
has learned to tell a lot about a
man by using her special gift.
"[But] ... it's not just physical sat-
isfaction," she explained. "Since I
really want to connect, I can feel
instantly if someone is available
on that level. An open heart is
much more appealing to me than
an overactive sex drive."
So you may be able to meet
your Romeo or Juliet a little
more quickly after reading Sec-
ond Sight.
But it doesn't mean you'll be
taking monthly trips to Hawaii

"My job is to help people" —
not pick winning lottery num-
bers for them, Dr. Orloff says.
"I'm not good at that."
When not working, Dr. Orloff
enjoys going to films and art mu-
seums. Her interest in Judaism
is limited, although she loves be-
ing in Israel and at the Western
Wall. She says she understands
why some turn to religion for the
spirituality she finds at her med-
itation altar. "If [Judaism] is
what people resonate with,
that's great," she says.
Dr. Orloff leaves readers with
this bit of financially sound ad-
vice:
"As a general rule, you
shouldn't call the 900 numbers,"
Dr. Orloff says. "And if anyone
charges exorbitant fees [for a
psychic reading] or claims to be
`all-knowing,' stay away." ❑
