Combined from the Japanese words Rei, meaning “God's wisdom, universal life or higher power” and Ki, meaning “life force or energy,” reiki is the healing practice of balancing our “universal life energy” around our bodies. Founded in the early twentieth century by Japanese Buddhist monk, Mikao Usui and with the underlying belief that our bodies have the natural ability to heal, reiki transfers healing energy by using the placement of hands to blocked areas. Divided into chapters channelling each body area and its common conditions and aches - including those of our pets - and fully illustrated, IN FOCUS REIKI teaches the basics to this increasingly popular practice to reduce stress, depression, anxiety and physical pain and tap into your inner healer. Seven illustrated meditation cards based on reiki principles are, also, included!
