Default PSI Seminar - What's your opinion?

Legit?
Cult?
Scam?

Got some friends who are into it. What's your opinion of it?

Your friends are into Pounds per Square inch seminars? Sounds valid to me

Anyhow, just did some quick reading, I don't have an opinion on PSI yet as I've only spent 30 mins reading over lots of opinion posts.

A heated discussion over it, might be worth a read for you if you are concerned about your friends.

Looks like another mix of cult techniques used to sell self help to large groups and keep milking them for more.

A good read on these types of seminars from Skeptics Dictionary:

From what I gather, and from what my friends have told me and what I have read, it seems like an offshoot of EST...which to me is just a lesser version of Scientology.
