'Everyone has psychic abilities', controversial new study suggests

A new study has suggested that our innate psychic abilities may be getting suppressed by the brain.
The question of whether or not psychic abilities exist has remained a point of contention for years.

While concrete evidence of abilities such as telepathy, telekinesis and clairvoyance continues to remain elusive, some people are absolutely convinced that such abilities really do exist.

There have even been scientific studies into the phenomenon.

Enter Dr. Morris Freedman - a Canadian researcher who has headed up a recent study which alleges to have discovered the part of the brain responsible for inhibiting psychic abilities.

This is, of course, quite a claim given that the existence of such abilities remains unproven.

According to the study, all humans may possess innate psychic abilities.
To investigate further, Dr. Freedman and colleagues used a technique known as repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to temporarily alter the brain activity of volunteers using magnetic pulses.

This, according to the study, helped the team identify an area of the brain responsible for inhibiting psychic abilities and even enabled volunteers to influence a random number generator.

"These findings are potentially transformative for the way we view interactions between the brain and seemingly random events," said Dr. Freedman.

But could this really be proof that psychic abilities are the real deal ?

Suffice to say, research of this nature is typically met with a great deal of skepticism from the scientific community at large.

Even so, it does make for an interesting read.
