This is a quality, comprehensive guide to reiki. There are many guides on the market, and this one is a good, complete example. It includes information on attunements, both in-person and distance, some extra symbols as well as the standard symbols, techniques and hand positions for general and special kinds of treatments. There was even information on how to start moving forward with a business plan. Well-done!

I received a review copy from the publisher without a requirement to review.

It has good chapters about how Reiki came to be and each chakra, but then goes on explaining a lot of things that, for me, looking just to learn how to self-reiki is not useful. I guess it's a book for the people who have received Reiki in the past and now want to go a step further and understand more about the levels, but it really did nothing for me, and I feel I know now 2% more than I did before reading it.
