Well, the first two times I achieved it, I thought it was accidental or set up, then there was this incident where someone planted ideas in my head that made me really question my core beliefs, especially the pursuit of psionics. I actually was skeptical of myself, but I'm over that now and ready to move on to bigger and better things, and part of that is the unlearning process.

I use "psi balls" to heal others. I'm a practicing Reiki student, and martial artist. In both I use this energy.
As for you being exhausted, the reason for this is that you are using *your* energy, rather than the universal energy (or Chi) to make the psi balls. This tends to leave one feeling "drained", especially if they fail to replace the energy back into their system.

Well, this is sort of part of the story of how I got my handle, Loki...
One fine autumn day, during my freshman year of high school, the lights decide to go out, and well, I was reduced to using a candle.
It first happened when I wasn't paying attention. I started thinking about fire, and all that, wishing I had more light to read by. It gradually began to get brighter and brighter, and I didn't notice until I began to get really warm. I looked up, and the flame on the candle was like 8" high. I was stunned, and in that moment of surprise, the flame went back down to normal.
I began to experiment more and more with meditation type exercises, with candles, and things of that sort. I can, to a certain extent, manipulate flame with my mind.
my most remarkable thing I've ever done with things of that sort was I made a stick of incense burst back into flames after I had blown it out, and there was only an ember left.
So, there you have it. I became very friendly with fire, much like my namesake. For the record, I don't consider myself pyrokinetic, but I do have some abilities that lean that way. I'm not Pyro from the X-men, but hey, My abilities suit me just fine.

The reason of course, is as an exercise to "unlearn" what we think we've learned of reality. That is the reason for me at least, when it comes to psychic balls.

It's a good question, but I too can understand this... Even after doing it the first few times, it's so minute, you question it (was there a freak breeze...did I breathe hard, etc.)
Most advanced thing I've done, was a pencil twirl, and that was after almost two hours, and it exhausted the hell out of me... Other thing that was pretty impressive was pyrokinesis...but I was only able to singe the edge of a piece of paper. Still, I was pretty impressed with myself. It only took about 40 minutes...but it was after already moving around a paperclip...
Basically, every time it's been successful, it's taken a lot of time, and energy. So, I don't practice it often (or show anyone, just so they can shoot it down to some freak occurrance). Luckily, I'm also a SLIDER (Street Light Interference Data Exchange Receiver....google on it to learn more). So, if I want to impress someone, I'll go outside and have a streetlight turn off and on at will... Great party trick, and takes almost no time whatsoever, and requires little effort...(until after a while doing it...then I get a headache). It's proof enough for most, and they leave it at that....
I try to reserve it for friends, as when I've shown others, I'm sometimes treated differently, suspiciously afterwards, and it's not a good feeling...

Really, if you want people to believe you... then prove it, if you don't you'll remain a fraud or a fool in the eyes of many.
