One also should cre- ate a meditation center (Dr. Orloff's features a small altar, burning incense and candles). Meditation, she says, helps one "quiet his mind" and "refocus his attention" from ratio- Dr. Judith nal thought, and de- Orloff: All velop empathy. you need is With empathy, Dr. 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.") s.- 471 Ian, Xis ( CI/Cs, Xis /min Xis .vutik Xis 120St and etult Xis 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 together. 71 ,!771!'. "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." ❑ Choices as special as Dad himself.
