I wish i could fix the world and all within and no i would not wish to receive payment for it :)
-
I would do it for free. It would end suffering, I would not want people to pay for their suffering to end. It should end as soon as possible.
-
If it was a gift God had given me it would be meant to help people not to charge them for the help.
-
free...that would be payment enough
-
I'd charge them because I could use it as my career and I wouldn't have to go into debt through college and getting an apartment afterwords, BUT if they cannot afford it I'd do it for free.
-
I would not advertise it openly for there would surely people who would try to take advantage of it. I would seek those who needed healing and cure them for free and if possible, without them knowing it was me.
-
Doctors pracvtice this everyday and are paid for their important work, the worker deserves his wages!
-
For free. If you think of all the people who need help, how could you bring yourself to charge them money every single time?
-
I would do it for free because if I had a healing touch it would be a gift from God given to me freely so I would use that gift freely and free of charge
-
If I had a healing touch, it would be a gift..I would not charge the people I helped because that is not the way to use or appreciate a gift.
-
I wouldnt want it at all unless it was a gift from god because that is his job. But if it was a gift from god I would not charge and would only use it when he told me to.
-
If I had a healing touch,... I'd grab my own head and yell,... Heal! Then I'd help other for free if it worked.
-
I would charge some and others I would work out a trade with.
-
free.. and make a reality show about it to make my money.. lol
-
I would use it for to help people, I am waiting on a kidney transplant so I know the cost real well Of healing people in todays medicine. And the hardship of being so sick, noone should have deal with this crap and have to pay for it.Also my father died of cancer if I could help over come that to that would make my life.
-
I would use it to help people for free, since I do not believe people should have to pay to stay healthy. (Doctors and such should be paid for their work, but patients should not have to pay to survive).
-
You can NEVER charge for a gift like this, if you do, you'll lose it. There was a man in Brazil that healed with simple kitchen knives......
-
free but i would just not go around touching people to get better for something that they can take to get better them selvs. only for those who really need it i would help.
-
I wouldn't advertise that i have the healing power. 1. people will view as a freak. people are afraid of the unknown or what they can't explain. 2. people will take avantage of you for their greed,and make you a sience project. why charge people for something that is a gift? you only heal thoses who really need healing.
-
seems weird, but itr works better when they are charged. they seem to accept the healing easier thats the short version
-
I would want to do it all for free, but how would I be able to be beneficial to the most people. I would probably have to travel, and have places to stay, (even tho' I could probably heal people here in Dallas-Ft.Worth, and NEVER get finished). I would probably set up a donation site, to cover expenses, and have it handled by someone who never talks to me, just pays the bills. Any excess monies could be funneled back to the sick and injured, because about 95% of them will have been out of work and living at poverty level for many years.
-
Well that depends. If I had a "healing touch," I would be either 1) self-deluded, or 2) a scam artist. If I was just self-deluded I would probably use it to help people, like some nurses try to do with Reiki. If I was a scam artist, then I would definitely be a faith healer...they make TONS of cash, and their followers never seem to lose faith, even when they are exposed as frauds.
-
I am a reiki practioner. Reiki is a form of healing touch. It's funny that no one expects a massage therapist to give his or her services for free. That said I give friends and family treatments for free. I also volunteer my time twice a week at a free reiki circle. The circle is not the same as a full treatment but it still benefits many people. When I decide to open up a practice I will charge money. If I knew of someone who was in dire need I might barter or do sliding scale.
-
I'd only charge the wealthy in proportion to what they earn like it should be with taxes. The middle class and lower would get my services for free. Why? Because I have a soft spot for people who work too hard.
-
yep :) that would be $5.59.... plus tax.. so... i say we'll just make that $10 for the day ;)
-
I would heal Republicans for free, but charge Democrats.
-
I would do it for free. And I would accept tips.
-
What would happen, when I masturbate?
-
CHARGE? PLEASE A GIFT FROM THE DEVINE AND YOU THINK OF CHARGING. NEVER. BUT I WOULD POSITION MYSELF TRAVEL WHATEVER TO WHERE I COULD DO THE MOST GOOD. I MAYBE COULD UNDERSTAND IF YOU WENT TO COLLEGE TO LEARN THIS AND THEN MADE A LIVING LIKE A DOCTOR. BUT TO HAVE THIS GIFT YOU GIVE OUT AS FREELY AS IT WAS GIVEN.
-
Depends... if there were some way of knowing the person's background, I think that would be a factor. Like if some rich jerk who was in some way responsible for people losing their homes, or jobs, or whatever... I might just tell him I'm not going to help him out at all.
-
Short answer is I would do it for free but make sure my ability didn't get out. I'd do it quietly. The biggest problem would be who am I to decide who to heal and who not to heal. How could I get to everyone? What if that person isn't supposed to survive and in my healing them, I mess up the grand plan. I totally would not want that responsibility, but if I had it I would do it for free because it would be a gift to share as best as I could.
-
I would never charge and I would never allow anyone to know it was I that healed them. I believe it it were possible to heal another I could do a lot more good if no one knew what I could do.
-
I would use it freely to heal people.Why would you charge ? Making money should not be the end result of healing and it should be helping many people as you can.
-
i would do it for free and accept all tips. i would be a very rich person.
-
I wouldn't charge but I would put out a huge ass tip jar.
-
I wouldn't tell anyone. If a loved one were dying I'd help w/o letting them know. But honestly, people need to die.
-
If I charged people for it I would just be a stinky doctor.
-
if you charged for it you could be prosecuted .
-
Complimentary...and infrequently because I would not want to spend my life beign swarmmed by ill people when really, they can help themselves anyway.
-
Would keep my current job and help people for free :) !
-
I would do it for free with no judgment. I wouldn't advertise it, but if it became known I wouldn't turn anybody away...as long as it doesn't hurt me in the end(you know overuse of powers) I watch to much t.v. and play too many games. lol. I wished I did have that power though. great question, by the way.
-
I would do it for free bnecause it would be disgusting to ask a dying man or woman for money to save their life.
-
I would NEVER EVER Charge... I believe that it is a gift from our creator, whomever He or She might be... Those blessed with the wonderful abilities were granted them for the purpose of helping and healing others.. It's part of Their individual Purpose here on earth...
-
if i had it then i would not charge for it would be a gift from my god and you do not charge others if you can help them .
-
I feel that anyone who is healed and receives the healing touch gain much to live a life with no further pain and suffering.The channel which instrumented the healing deserves to be paid with gratitude of service just like any other professional person.
-
I set up a "Healing Word and Touch" corporation. I'd then use the touch for free amongst the people of earth, however, asking for a donation to my corporation for the furtherance of the advancement of the "Word of the Healing Touch". No different than religious organizations asking for a free-will offering (sometimes coerced). If necessary I'd register it as a religion with me as the paid administrator. I could do a lot of good with the money!!!
-
Free to those who can't afford it. It might sound wrong, but could you imagine the amount of people who would be bothering you non-stop? You would deserve something for this.
-
you would`nt need money you would be eternally busy.and i`m sure your needs would be met.
-
i would help people for free.:)
-
if i could heal i would if i could stop the pane i would they would be gifts i could not charge for that
-
We all have the gift of healing threw our touch, when I Hug a sad freind I Hug her to make feel better. I Could,nt Imagine sayinb oh, by the way I'm going to need $5.00 for that hug. Plus you could live pritty darn good off a true healing touch think of all the places you would travel, the things you would do the people u would heal would bare that exspense. Now for the poor thats were you might need to charge other people money so you could get to them. but, if u had the magic touch I'm sure you could heal your way to anyone.
-
A person with such powers would not be thinking of chargeing because good Karma would be following and wealth not necessary.
-
If I had that touch, means, Im sitting on a goldmine.... Id probably charge based on their deeds, if someone does good things, then good things happen to them, else cough up mate :D
-
I am a healer. This is not like I'm Christ or something where I can do it in an instant. It takes time, energy, effort, knowledge and expertese. Quite often many sessions. My best results have been animals. People are harder to do for me. It requires pure love, that's the trick. This is not magic. Just pure love. And the ability to move energy. I do not charge but people are wonderful. They always come through in whatever way they can.
-
Absolutely. That would make me very happy.
-
I have that gift of healing. Charging money is how you weed out the people who don't take you seriously. Trust me on this, if it's free, everyone wants it, but once they have to pay money, that number dwindles down to next to no one. I tried making a business of it years ago, but people don't really value it all that much. It's a novelty to them. For those of you who would give it away for free; try it sometime. See how much fun you have at it after a couple of months of being bothered by desperate people looking for a cheap way out. (Free = bargain hunters = major hassle/no reward.) Free also means giving up your time in exchange for nothing but a few tips. It's not enough to give you a decent life. If no one is taking care of you, you're going to lose interest in taking care of other people pretty quickly.
-
For free, I got the gift for nothing, I would feel bad demanding cash, or making a profit. Why should only those that can afford to be healed get healed, that is harsh. Health should be a right not a luxury in a civilised world as this. However, of course I would accept donations from those able to pay me if they wanted to, I need to pay the bills right?
-
I would not charge them...it would make me feel good to help them...If I could pick the healing touch that I had it would be to rid people of cancer..it affects so many, so unfairly!
-
both
-
For free.
-
i would surely help people for free as i will think it is a booon for me given by god just to serve the needy......
-
I'd make those who could afford to pay and I'd do it for free those who couldn't afford it. My biggest worry about having those kind of powers would be that everyone would expect me to heal them so I'd probably refuse to use my powers for two weeks out of each month unless someone was immediately going to die in front of me or, keep my ability as secret as possible while still using it.
-
I would try to keep it a secret. I would like visit hospitals and touch people and then run away.
-
I do have healing touch. It is a gift from God that I have further developed. And after years of trying to help others and struggling within my own life I now charge. I'm real clear that the 'work' I do for others is free... however, my time is not. Like everyone else I must pay rent, utilities and phone bills. I've worked hard to be 'debt free' so all I have is my monthly bills to live on this planet. Charging those who can afford it gives me the opportunity to help others without having to work at Wal-mart to eat and have a place to live. And it frees up the rest of my time to work pro-bono for those in a hard place and in need of life healing. www.PatriciaSquires.com

Free, but I would accept donations!
-
Depends on the situation I guess. I think it would take some kind of effort to heal someone. The more effort (or time) it takes, the more you are in need of financial support to be able to carry out the healing. I would rather not charge a person for healing. A tip would be nice though :)
-
I'd do it for free. :)
-
Most of the time we have the ability to heal certain individuals without knowing so...if any healing has been done it would determined by the individual. You have to be more specific as to what type of healing powers your relating to. I've been doing a bit of Palmistry and that to me is considered a healing process. Most people make the assumption that Palmistry is used to depict the future, but in reality its not. Its more of a method to conduct a character analysis of that certain individual.
-
the power would not be mine,such a power would come only from GOD,and the gift of love is always free.
-
i would be a reverse super hero. i would go out and save dead people. the bad guys would completely murder the victim and i would just sit there and watch. then i would walk up and be like "your saved". "Where the #### where you?!" they would say. then they would get up and walk away.
