Reiki is the Japanese word for universal life energy, and in this important book authors Müller and Günther explain how this remarkable healing method sends energy through the hands of a practitioner into the body of a receiver. Reiki healing works on all levels: physical, spiritual, and emotional. It removes barriers, balances chakras, rebuilds harmony, encourages self-healing to strengthen health and recharge energy, and flows in an unlimited quantity. In sum, it is an immeasurable gift. Dr. Mikao Usui rediscovered this lost healing art in the late nineteenth century. After learning that Buddha had the power to heal, he spent years searching for any original Buddhist writings that contained the key to healing. Finally, Usui located the formula, the symbols, and the description of how the Buddha healed written down in a 2,500-year-old Sanskrit document by one of Buddha'™s disciples, and he set out on a long, successful quest to turn this newfound wisdom from the Buddha into the power to heal.In the Usui system of Reiki, the healing energy effortlessly transmits from one person to another organism through the touch of hands. Reiki hands radiate healing energy at any time in any place, and a person schooled in Reiki is not just a channel for healing, but becomes part of Reiki'™s universal life energy.The authors include chapters on the uses of Reiki for people, animals,plants, objects, food, and drink, as well as its support for other forms of therapy and healing. There are drawings, photographs,and a number of testimonials from those who have been successfully treated with Reiki. In addition, the book contains resources for learning more about Reiki training, a references section listing helpful books, and an index

Brigitte Mller, the first Reiki Master/Teacher in Europe, was initiated into Reiki by Phyllis Lei Furumoto in 1983. As a pioneer, she successfully laid the foundations for making Reiki Healing Treatments well known in Europe. She lives in Frankfurt, Germany, and teaches the traditional Usui Shiki Ryoho System of Reiki there and in many countries around the globe. Horst H. Gnther was managing a company and exploring many ways to help people when he experienced Reiki at one of Brigitte's first workshops in Germany. His life changed dramatically when Phyllis Lei Furumoto initiated him as a Reiki Master/Teacher in 1985. When not leading Reiki workshops around the world, or teaching seminars in rebirthing and kinesiology, he lives and teaches in Friedrichsdorf, Germany.
