Mind reading is not a science it is highly superficial and based on the mind readers instincts that is perhaps the most likely root of this activity. For one I believe that a mind reader can read on the inside based on their observations and perceptions as to the initial looks and how well presented their subject human being are at the meeting. It is fake as if I were trying to read someone else mind I would score lowly as I would have little or no idea as to how well you are, or what you do for a living. With this in mind, I would have little doubt as to saying that mind reading is not real, it is indeed false state of mind.

Generalisations of people during these meetings can be made as having visited a mind-reader and also having attended one hour counselling sessions with different types of people, they all had no idea of who I was, as well as other social and personal characteristics. In attending these sessions with the mind reader all I received was vague generalisations surrounding my childhood, and what I was looking to do. Some of the ideas that were brought up in the mind-reader sessions proved largely bogus and where they were close the results were that it could be similar for most other people based on a similar perceived personal characteristic level and on certain traits. For me I give little or no currency and credit towards mind readers, counsellors are different in that they want to get to know a person and find out what is wrong and find steps to help an individual. Whilst even the counsellor will likewise make generalisations he will help to find a working solution or help in being able to talk about a persons problems. The mind-reader is there in a largely or entirely non subject qualified taking vulnerable peoples cash in an attempt to do what exactly?

I ask myself a question if say I did knowingly have a problem, I would find the time and effort to attempt to find out if a stranger thought that he or she knew the problems I was facing completely useless. The mind reader thinking that he or she knows aspects about my life, the study is plain witch craft. I would obviously tell the truth in this review and as an impartial reviewer hold no ideological grounds other than trying to be truthful about my views and opinions.

Areas where the mind reader will do well is where obvious signs of voice tones in fear or something going wrong might work to their advantage. Also by the free flowing questions that are posed by the mind readers which seem to sound open but which are indeed closed also adds to my suspicion though the mind reader success or failure is judged by the individuals facial expression and short feedback process. There are those people I see walking down my local street everyday some people have a positive and feel good factor glowing on their faces, that would not lead me to say "hi you look well", and there are those who seem sad or have a neutral expression, how am I to know which is a happy or sad person deep down, and there is no way of knowing what each person does for a living, or if something has happened in their life good or bad.
