I think I can see my philosphy teacher's aura pretty well for some reason, but other people are harder and usually i get a headache from having my eyes at a weird unfocused/focusedness.

One Healing Touch therapist came to my class in January and actually worked on one of my classmates, and she said that she felt much better afterwards.
