I just realized why all those pseudoholistic scams work.

The women that pay for these bullshit treatments like using crystals to draw the negative ions out or some similar level of bullshit are paying for attention. The real benefit comes from the fit and charismatic holistic dude paying close attention to them for an hour or whatever. These people are really selling their attention, they're true attention whores.

Then they get to tell you about it.

Similar to how people treat tattoos. Someone draws on them (attention); usually done with a friend or two for 'support' (attention). Now they have the drawing on them for people to notice (attention). And they get to tell you about their tattoo (attention). Either the experience, or the reason why they got it/why it is important/why they chose that drawing. All attention.

Maybe we should triple those parens on the word (((attention)))?

Most people want something to believe in. Magical thinking drives 80% of actions from 80% of people.
