I had the insight, after I published this article, and after I removed some 20 attachments, today, that the people (distance healers?) that put the attachment on you may not have malicious intent.
They need to connect to you, and because they are not empaths, they have to do it with a cord-like energy attachment. At the end of the session they don’t remove it… And now they have your energy available to them, or potentially their energy available to you.
