Book Synopsis

Reiki, a Japanese word pronounced ray-key, can be translated to mean universal life force, or universally guided energy. It is a very simple system of healing, carried out by placing hands on or over a person (who is always clothed), or animal or plant, with the intent to channel Reiki. It can also be sent, as absent healing, over distance and even through time. Reiki heals on all levels, physically, mentally and spiritually, and supports the body's natural ability to heal itself. It is a non-confrontational form of healing, soothing away many different troubles and traumas in a very gentle way. It is also nondenominational, practised by people of many different religions and cultures. You don't need to commit to a belief system in order to channel Reiki, or enjoy its benefits; all you need is the desire to heal and be healed. This practical book by a Reiki master, with clear advice and step-by-step guidance, serves as a valuable introduction to all aspects of Reiki for those who aspire to feel its healing energy and universal love, and to inspire those who already enjoy the balancing effects of this all-embracing, healing art.

Review Quotes

Reiki healer Fernandez skillfully breaks down the essentials of Reiki for general audiences and aspiring practitioners. The purpose of Reiki, Fernandez writes, is to channel a universal life force of love and healing through the placing of hands on recipient: to generate heat and energy so as to relieve pain, release trauma, and promote wholeness. Fernandez explains how, during a Reiki session, the recipient lies in a prone position or is seated while a practitioner uses his or her hands to access hot spots of tension or cold spots of energy blockage. The author provides instructions on vibrational healing, hand positions, working with symbols, and creating a cleansing space. (Clear instructions and helpful photos walk leaders through the practices.) This comprehensive introduction will provide novices with an easy entree into Reiki healing.--PW Publishers Weekly spring highlights 2021, December 2020
