How does one learn to heal / treat using this method?

There are 3 levels of Pranic Healing - the basic, advanced and psychotherapy workshops. The basic pranic healing workshop is open to all. No prior knowledge or skills are necessary. Here, students are introduced to the concept of the bioplasmic body, its characteristics and how it relates to a person’s health. They are taught how to feel or scan this energy field using the sense of touch. This skill is easy to pick up initially, though mastery takes time and practise. With this ability to scan, Pranic Healers are able to diagnose those parts of the bioplasmic body that may be imbalanced. At the basic level, this manifests as excess energy at a part, known as Pranic congestion, or lack of energy, known as Pranic depletion. Once determined, Pranic Healers are imparted the skills of cleansing and energising, which allows them to normalise the affected areas. Cleansing involves removing the “dirty” or used-up energy that causes the imbalances in the first place; while energising allows us to restore the energy balance by projecting “fresh” or clean energy into the affected part. Besides teaching us how to heal, the Pranic Healing workshop also contains a meditation technique called the Meditation on Twin Hearts, basic Pranayama techniques, lectures on the Law or Karma and character building, techniques to heal oneself and how to heal people at a distance. There are currently Pranic Healing foundations in 9 states with another 2 expected to come up shortly. All foundations conduct regular workshop in various parts of the country.
