From the Inside Flap
Reiki is a Japanese word meaning Universal Life Force Energy. There is a life force that flows through all living beings, whether animal, vegetable or mineral, and Reiki refers to a technique that enables you to accept or become a channel for a far greater amount of this life force energy. Drawing on ancient practices, which are said to have dated back to Buddha, Reiki balances the energy in the body, renewing vitality and bringing about a powerful feeling of serenity and relaxation through the laying on of hands. It is being used increasingly by massage therapists, osteopaths and others to complement their standard form of practice and can be used to relieve the problems associated with stress, tension, chronic illness and post-operative pain.
Reiki is both practical and accessible, revealing the fascinating story behind the discovery of Reiki, what to expect from a treatment, how it works and how it can be of benefit and even shows how you too can train (very easily) to practise Reiki. This revised and updated edition also includes techniques for using Reiki to increase self-confidence, harness inner power and bring about positive changes, with new sections on attuning children to Reiki, diet and exercise.
Written by one of the few traditionally trained Reiki masters in the UK and featuring the original Usui method, Reiki is the essential guide for all followers and would-be followers of this intriguing subject.
Chris Parkes trained as a Reiki Master in the Usui tradition and established The Reiki School with his
wife Penny to provide the highest quality Reiki training. They run Reiki courses throughout Britain.
