A Much-Needed Resource for Reiki Practitioners of ALL Levels!

So many reiki practitioners are taught how to do reiki, i.e, hand positions, varying symbols and techniques, meditation and so on, but so little time is actually spent helping the student of reiki to actually learn how to be OPEN to the intuitive flow that is essentially a part of true reiki practice. Most teachers, in fact, may not even be aware how to tap into the intuitive flow themselves. How does reiki actually show us what to work on with a client? How do you learn to interpret the signals and signs you receive while giving a healing treatment? What steps can a reiki practitioner take to become more open to the messages contained within the human energy field and the flow of energy from the universe? Rowland's book is chock full of *useful* and helpful information designed to teach both reiki students and other teachers *how* to be open and aware of these signs, these messages. Written in a concise, straightforward manner, the book is nonetheless a great storehouse of information that is much needed at this time and particularly in this country, where most of the reiki practitioners are left to sort out for themselves exactly what to do with what they "receive" from a client during a treatment. Rowland teaches classes in Reiki and Intuition and this book is based on her work with these classes and with teaching students from all levels of Reiki how to tune in to their intuitive processes. As such, it is a great success. Rowland is neither self-important nor does she waste any time in criticism of any other practices or techniques; what is taught here can be implemented into ANY reiki practice, regardless of lineage or style. I had already intended to take Rowland's class; after reading this book, I am more interested than ever, not because the book is insufficient, but because her writing style is so engaging, that I want to study with her more! I have met her in person and reading her book does sound exactly like speaking with her in person. It's a good read, interesting, and well-planned out. I highly recommend it for anyone who is Reiki.

the embodiment of a life with Reiki

probably my favourite of new reiki books this year. THIS is how reiki should be encouraged in ourselves, our students and in others. Amy (whom I've never met) has written a wonderful book which offers much to think about, much to try and some GREAT approaches in learning to BE reiki and BE the energy. There are a good number of books out there wherein one can learn how to be sooooo Japanese and there are numbers of books which repeat the same old information but this book truly ADDS to the knowledge of reiki in the world... So far, of the over 125 books about Reiki which I own, this is one of my favourites.

Essential for any Reiki healer

Most modern Reiki practitioners are missing the connection between Reiki and the role intuition can play in permanent healing; yet in Japan practitioners must master this intuitive way at the entry level before they can proceed. INTUITIVE REIKI FOR OUR TIMES: ESSENTIAL TECHNIQUES FOR ENHANCING YOUR PRACTICE thus fills a gap in Western training, examining the foundations of the intuitive experience and how it translates to healing. Practitioners can use this guide to identify intuitive experiences, learn how to apply it, and thoroughly integrate with Reiki training as a whole. Essential for any Reiki healer. Diane C.

This is the BEST!!

Whether you are just starting in metaphysics/healing or are an experienced practitioner, this is a superb book. The author uses principles, practices, methods and personal insights and stories to weave together a complete tutorial. It teaches new ideas, reminds us of the meaning of what we do and entertains at the same time. As a student of metaphysics for many years, I just loved it. Congrats to Amy!!! What great writing and by the way, the pictures aren't bad either :-)).

Top Notch in Every Way!

I am blessed to know Amy Rowland, and was even included in the book with one of my anecdotes. Nevertheless, I was inspired and blessed beyond my expectations when reading this book. Amy gave me an extra spurt of energy towards the loving practice of Reiki and I've been a R.Master for several years, and a professional intuitive for 25. She puts it all together in a clear and useful manner. It made me want to do Reiki even more than I do. I also feel even more comfortable in using my intuitive style of Reiki work. She makes it OK. Amy Rowland is a conscientious writer and doesn't include a lot of meaningless fluff. Every word counts. You'll be glad you got this book. I'm planning to get 20 of these for the people on my Christmas list. Its that good!
