Reiki For Dummies

when I teach someone, I usually include a book and this is one of the books I have given over the years. It is quite thorough and covers many aspects of reiki including history and treatment. the 'for dummies' books are clear and comprehensive about topics - this volume covers history, japanese and western techniques, and how to practise reiki - although traditional symbols (and a whole bunch of non traditional ones) are given, empowerment methods are not.

Find relief, peace, and enlightenment through reiki.

Reiki-a gentle, noninvasive healing practice-is now used by many as a complementary therapy for many conditions. This plain-English guide explains its origins and how reiki channels life-force energy to alleviate physical and emotional pain. You'll discover what to expect in a session, how to teat yourself, and ways to share the power of reiki wth others.
