‘An Evidence Based History of Reiki’, by The International Center for Reiki Training.

reiki

“Within the Reiki community, there have been many attempts to describe its history. But because of the difficulty in discovering authentic sources of information and the lack of disciplined methods, many of the previous attempts have been based more on legendary ideas and a need to validate a particular style of Reiki than on verifiable research.

The information in this book is based on evidenced based facts that have been compiled from a number of authentic sources using accepted methods of historical research. The picture of Reiki revealed here provides a clearer understanding of how Usui Reiki had been originally developed and practiced by its founder, Usui Sensei, and also how it changed and evolved as it was passed on through Hayashi Sensei and Takata Sensei. The inclusion of original historical documents and the extensive footnotes makes it possible for anyone to verify the veracity of the research. Based on the quality of this information, it is now possible to better understand the roots of this sacred practice and in so doing gain a more meaningful comprehension of its essence.

It is hoped that this level of historical research will become the accepted norm in the Reiki community and contribute to a greater level of understanding and acceptance between the various groups, schools and associations.”

REVIEWS:

Christine Baker, 5.0 out of 5 stars. One of the best books on the history of reiki

“This is one of the best books I have read on the history of reiki. It fills in gaps that are not always taught in reiki classes. I has evidence based proof that Western and Japanese reiki are different enough from each other for there to be no such thing as traditional Usui reiki in the United States, which many American reiki masters claim to teach. Written by William Lee Rand, who takes the time through correspondence and trips to Japan to interview people.”

London allin, 5.0 out of 5 stars Worth reading!

“Very helpful to get more background knowledge of this old healing practice.”

  • Can doing Reiki ever be dangerous?

Janice Harvey, 5.0 out of 5 stars An easy to read invaluable guide for anyone thinking of learning Reiki

I loved this book. I am interested in energy and healing but it is so hard to choose a course or know whether it’s right for you when you really don’t understand what the full potential of Reiki is. This book breaks it down in a way that’s easy to understand – what Reiki is in its various forms, what to expect if you do a course and the various levels and what they mean. Jeremy is so passionate about Reiki and it’s great to get advice from someone with years of experience as both a practitioner and a teacher. I highly recommend it to anyone who’s ever thought of learning Reiki for self healing and transformation, healing others or working as a practitioner. It answered so many of the questions I had and is a great guide I can keep coming back to.

Onraya, 5.0 out of 5 stars An Absolute Must Read. All of Your Curiosities About Reiki Will Be Answered. this book is exactly what the title says. This book contain answers to all the questions that I’ve ever had about Reiki. Unlike most books that dive into the history of Reiki and have little to tell about the practical side of it, “The Perfect Reiki Course” gives you everything that you need to know and by the end of the book you will have a clear answer to yourself on whether or not Reiki is for you.
Most importantly, because there are different styles and types of Reiki, if you are planning taking your first Reiki course, this book will assist you in determining whether the course that you are aiming for is the right one for you. I strongly believe that this book is an absolute must have.
Jeremy is one of the best teacher and Reiki Master that I have ever met. His experiences and teachings are top class and you will understand what I mean through his writings in this book.

Why should we meditate? How can crystals heal the mind and body? Why is visualization so powerful – and so effective?

Alternative therapies, healing modalities, and spiritual practices are often referred to as ‘woo-woo,’ – but many of these approaches are actually supported by compelling scientific evidence.

In this dynamic and thought-provoking book, David R. Hamilton PhD dives deeper into the true nature of consciousness and presents the cutting-edge research behind energy healing, crystals, meditation, and more.

You’ll discover:

· The benefits of nature and a holistic approach to healing
· A fascinating link between consciousness and human connection

Hands of Light: A Guide to Healing Through the Human Energy Field, by Barbara Ann Brennan.

One of the most enlightening books I have ever read is Barbara Ann Brennan’s Hands of Light: A Guide to Healing Through the Human Energy Field, Transworld Publishers Ltd (1993).

Barbara Ann Brennan developed astounding levels of sensitivity as a young child, spending countless hours in an area of wilderness near her own home, eventually developing the ability to close her eyes and ascertain the precise location and movements of animals in the vicinity. She went on to become a research scientist for NASA at the Goddard Space Flight Center following the completion of her Masters in Atmospheric Physics at the University of Wisconsin. Barbara also completed a PhD in Philosophy, a DTh in Theology and qualifications in Counselling.

Barbara currently offers workshops related to the Human Energy Field, Healing and Channeling.

I wholeheartedly recommend this amazing textbook by a truly gifted human being.

Description:

With the clarity of a physicist and the compassion of a gifted healer with more than twenty years of professional experience observing 5,000 clients and students, Barbara Ann Brennan presents the first in-depth study of the human energy field for people who seek happiness and health, and who wish to achieve their full potential. Our physical bodies exist within a larger ‘body’ , a human energy field or aura, which is the vehicle through which we create our experience or reality, including health and illness. It is through this energy field that we have the power to heal ourselves.This energy body – only recently verified by scientists, but long known to healers and mystics – is the starting point of an illness. Here, our most powerful and profound human interactions take place, the precursor and healer of all physiological and emotional disturbances.


Hands of Light offers: * a new paradigm for the human in health, relationships and disease * an understanding of how the human energy field looks and functions * training in the ability to see and interpret auras * medically verified case studies of healing people from all walks of life with a variety of illnesses * guidelines for healing the self and others.
