Mari's latest book comes from her soul as it reaches out to touch "your" soul. Not a how to do book on Reiki, but rather a glimpse into how Reiki energy facilitates personal journey's through life. When I read "Reiki for the Soul" I was touched in ways and in places in my heart and soul that had lain dormant for a long time. As I read the personal account of Mari's journey through relationships, parents, work, love and ourselves, I found myself going through an evaluation of my life in each of those aspects. The doorway image that Mari uses is excellent as we have a "choice" to step through the doorways of change or not. Early in the book Mari outlines the "Stepping Stones of Change". I have used this illustration in the Reiki Classes I teach. I can only say, have a box of Kleenex with you as you read this book, it touches not only your soul, but your heart as well.

I am a beginning Reiki student and eager to read all material that will advance my studies. I was very disappointed in this selection. I feel that it is one woman's catharsis on a dysfunctional family and served very little information to a first time Reiki student looking for guidance. While I totally respect the author, the angst she is feeling, and her role with the International organization, I do not see the value of this "diary entry". Other titles on Reiki better serve the interests of beginning students, in my opinion.

This book was nothing short of magical. It successfully blended Reiki and journeying into your own depths. The questions at the end of each doorway encouraged you to travel inward discovering and challenging old thoughts and belief systems. I loved it so much I bought 5 copies for Christmas gifts! Happy Journeying!

I am the author of this book. If you are looking for a beginner's book on Reiki there are many available. This book helps you to take your Reiki futher and deeper into yourself. It was written with the hope that everyone can see that no matter what our life circumstances have been there is a light that helps us out of our darkness and that light is Reiki. It was my intention to evoke you to remember just how many doorways you have personally walked through and where the next doorway may be in you life. It is a journal for you to share yourself in. Let your heart be open to all possibilities. Even in disappointment there are lessons,essential truth and choice.

This book is a biography of a Reiki Master. It does not include the "How to" or even the "What" of Reiki. This book discusses the events in a Reiki Master's life and encourages you to find similar events in your life and apply Reiki to the negative emotions.
