The Healer's Manual: A Beginner's Guide to Energy Healing for Yourself and Others (Llewellyn's Health & Healing)

The author made it very easy to use all the exercises and make it so it is an everyday resource for all practitioners from beginner to advanced. It gives you the back to basics of what so many lightworkers seem to forget once they get into the realm of having clients.

The Author clearly did his homework while writing this volume.Has lots of exercizes and techniques.This book doesn't limit itself to Qigong and the direction of Qi, but this book has some of the best illustrations of the 12 primary meridians and the 8 Qi vessels I have seen. The only better illustrations of the energy pathways that I have seen are in "Ch'i: The Power Within" Geoff and Phyllis Pike, and "The Root of Chinese Qigong" Dr. Jwing-Ming Yang.My only minor nitpick is that some may incorrectly transmit personal Qi and feel drained instead of transmiting the Universal Qi all around you. If you feel drained visualize gathering energy from your surroundings. People see Qi as a white or gold colored mist.Some (as I am) may feel drawn to energy forms of healing. and I can personaly recommend Qigong, Reiki, and Seichim. I have personal experience with these energy healing modalities. I hold a 7th Facet Seichim Master certificate, and Master/Teacher certificates for three forms of Reiki (Karuna, Tibetan, and Usui Shiki Ryoho).I sincerely hope that more people will take up energy healing modalities.Wah doh Ogedoda

I have studied for many years and am a healer (chakra/psychic/Reiki/stones/crystals), and psychic reader. This book is full of descriptions, tables of therapies, and excercises with complete instructions. Great for anyone interested in making life better - for yourself or others. Matter of Fact style does not try to convince anyone of the truth, it simply explain various ways to tap into personal power and healing powers. Not simply for the beginner either. GREAT reference book. Covers a very wide area of techniques.
