Using Reiki: Practical Essays that Bring Reiki into Daily Practice
starts where most classes end and will recapture the magic many feel after leaving a Reiki class. This book of essays also helps students quell the uneasiness that starting a daily practice may yield and better understand the simplicity and pitfalls of practice, all while helping them build confidence. It is easy to read, insightful, and readers will come away not only with a greater understanding of Reiki but also a greater understanding of natural healing.
The book is written in four parts. "Part I Establishing Value" includes essays that answer critical questions to understanding Reiki, such as What is Reiki, What Reiki Does and What It Doesn't, Why Reiki is a Critical Part of Self-Care, and Using Reiki Will Improve Overall Self-Care. "Part II In Practice" offers a deep dive into how to practice and discusses both the internal inhibitors to practice and the external factors that can appear to impede practice. Those essays include Coming-to-Terms: Working Through Internal Inhibitors of Practice, The Cupped Hand Position, Working Through the External Factors that Appear to Impede Practice, How Convenience Can Impede Practice, and A Brief Review. "Part III Answering Follow-up Questions" provides answers to the questions that come as a result from daily practice. Those essays include, How Do I Become More Comfortable with Reiki?, Why Don't I Feel my Reiki Anymore, or Why is it Less Intense?, If I Don't Feel Reiki, How Do I Know That It's Working?, Why Didn't Reiki Alleviate All My Symptoms?, Do I Lose Reiki if I Fail to Use It?, and Understanding the Attunement Levels of Reiki. "Part IV Understanding Differences" provides information and insight that will help students gain a greater understanding of the larger world of natural healing to help empower them with a better understanding of the tools available in the greater wellness toolbox.
