Since its introduction to the West a little more than twenty years ago Reiki has grown from a small circle of a few hundred practitioners scattered across the world to millions of people in practically every country on the globe. Reiki's expansion has been fast surprising...and very successful. The system has become so widely accepted that insurers in several countries now cover Reiki treatments in their plans. EXPLORING REIKI introduces this increasingly popular form of hands-on healing by answering the 108 most often-asked questions relating to its practice in commonsense reader-friendly language. It covers all the practical issues a complete beginner would want to know about while still providing an in-depth and all-round presentation. As a result EXPLORING REIKI is as helpful to the curious browser who wishes to get first-hand information from an experienced practitioner as it is to the experienced initiate with questions about a particular aspect of this subtle art of healing. Working with the subtle energy of Reiki can contribute to disease prevention and to everyday harmony as well as specific acute or chronic problems. Three articles in the appendix demonstrate how Reiki fits into the larger context of holistic healing...and a saner approach to health care.
