This photo instructional book teaches how to attune to the universal life force that imbues us, awakening those dormant healing "powers" within, and providing the means to effectively heal others and ourselves.

The first section of the guide covers self-healing techniques and also provides a chart outlining the 7 energy centers of the body, while the latter section focuses on those techniques that can be used for treating others. Clear, concise instructions accompany the photos to illustrate each point.

The origin of Reiki is mentioned, along with the various stages a student passes through during training. To highlight the various ways the acquired skills can be employed, several testimonials are included from students who have successfully used the techniques to bring about healing in their lives, and the lives of others.

This course is ideal for beginners desirous of finding their true potential via hands on healing, and for the experienced practitioners who want to further their studies and increase their knowledge of this natural healing art.

The book has excellent photos illustrating hand positions and treatment options both for self treatment & treating others. The treatments are illustrated in two page spreads, with page numbers to the larger illustrations & explanations, a useful format. The book also lies flat to make use of this feature.

The author suggests that the book & tape (I haven't heard the tape) would be good for those unable to get much 1 on 1 training or practice, and this seems very likely.

The written material is good, though not too in depth, but the pictures make this an excellent book for anyone new to or interested in learing about Reiki.
