It becomes a phycological problem rather then a biological one.
Even if we had scientific proof, we would still have to state that how these energy fields effect an individuals perceptions is still predominantly a phycological problem.

Let's take an example.
I have Asperger's Syndrome.
The bio/chemical properties of this condition make me susceptable to percieving the world, myself, and my place in the world along certain perameters. However, how I percieve these things is attributable more to my phycological state then my bio/chemical one. Otherwise all Aspies would share the same perceptions which, the empirical evidence on WP dictates, would be a fallacy.

To me? It looks like you are saying "I didn't say that energy is a figment in the head, I said it was all in the mind, MIND. I didn't say "figment in the head, I said psychological thing in the mind.". I feel you are playing word games.

I mostly don't come near people but people view that as odd.
