Degrees of Reiki
Degrees of reiki is guide to the use and practice of Reiki. It offers a variety of ways of using Reiki that will encourage the reader to use their own intuition when applying reiki to their particular needs. It is not a complete work as Reiki is beyond being confined to one way or practice and is far greater than what can be understood and encompassed by one person. However it is hoped that this book will extend the reader's knowledge and use of reiki and open their minds to the vast possibilities that Reiki offers.
