I have learned that people will forget what you said,

People will forget what you did,

But people will never forget how you made them feel.

Maya Angelou

This book is for youthe student, the practitioner, and the teacher.

I began teaching Reiki in 1993. I now teach my workshop Become a Medical Intuitive: Seeing with X-Ray Eyes all over the world, and at least 40 to 50% of the students attending are Reiki practitioners. This far outranks any other energy healing modality. Reiki has traveled all around the world and Reiki people are everywhere. You may think you are alone, but you are not alone. You are part of a massive group that is globally strengthening in numbers every day.

Reiki is a dynamic spark of universal intelligence touching every culture in every country. It has quickly become the loving energetic bridge rising above the river of human strife, connecting unique individuals from all backgrounds and all ways of living. Reiki has become a unifying conduit linking people all around the globe with healing and love.

Reiki melts away old, rusted, and blocked doorways so the light can shine on new levels and realms of awareness. This awareness allows you to understand people and life on a profoundly unconditionally loving level as never before. Reiki opens the intuitive doorway to the non-physical realms of life. You will sense the physical world in new and sharper ways and you will perceive the non-physical world at the same time. You will sense that each person is indeed a struggling soul. You will also be more aware of yourself as a developing soul. Many new practitioners report seeing colors, blockages, and emotions in their clients bodies and even angels and deceased loved ones.

This new awakening, however, has brought forth fear, worries, and alarm for many Reiki people. This fear response led me to write my book Reiki and Your Intuition: A Union of Healing and Wisdom in 2019.

Reiki is unconditional. People, in general, are not unconditional. They tend to have many conditions and many internal rules that are more constrictive than expansive. I have poured over many Reiki books and noticed that no two agree. There are versions upon versions of treatment protocols, symbols, attunements, rules, fees, etc. We could see this as a rich variety to celebrate or view it as conflict. While Reiki books and teachers discuss many types of rules regarding Reiki, the symbols, and the attunements, I ask you to notice that I do not focus on Reiki rules.

Some instructors state that you can only go on to the next degree when they give you permission. Mikao Usui himself seemed to have few rules of this kind. I have no rules of this kind. Who are we as teachers to create this control over another? A true teacher and a true leader builds in the students a sense of empowerment. They do not control it or take it away.

I refer you to Christine Grimms book in coordination with Frank Petters findings, The Original Reiki Handbook of Dr. Mikao Usui. It contains few rules, if any at all. Lets not create more rules regarding whose linage is the most pure or when you can learn the next degree or where your hands must be placed, etc. Let us learn to get out of the way of this universal wisdom. Reiki is alive and what is alive always flows, changes, and transforms. Get out of the way and allow the universal life force to flow.

I ask each individual to listen to the guidance of their own soul. Listen to Spirit first and then notice your analytical mind. Allow the blend of your personal intuitive guidance and your thinking mind. In fact, I ask you to consider releasing old acquired rules and free yourself to be the most phenomenal, unrestricted, open vessel for Reiki. I have grown more aware over the decades that the more we get our thinking minds out of the way, the more we allow Reiki to flow through us.

My intent for the second edition of The Reiki Teachers Manual is to provide a clear and knowledgeable framework with direct, organized steps to learn or teach all three levels of Reiki. The content that I present here is for students and practicing Reiki healers. The information is structured to quickly assist people who are yearning to teach Reiki but may not know how to begin.

Something is tugging and pulling at you, and it seems kind of strange. You keep hearing about Reiki or you keep finding people who are talking about Reiki. The word Reiki keeps popping up around you in surprising ways. The Universe is sending signals to you. Are you listening? The content of this book is for you, the student, even though the structure assists the teacher. As a student myself, I ask that you free yourself to be that clear, unconditionally loving vessel for Reiki. I ask that you realize you are a valuable and vital link in the healing system for others. Reiki healing is not just placing your hands on another person. It is learning to bring healing to another human, but it is also to bring healing to animals, our cars, plants, the washing machine, your home, and the land it sits upon. It is about healing the past, the present, and the future. It is about healing yourself and expanding your energetic consciousness into a clearer, brighter light.

Reiki brings healing in new and special ways into your life and your body, emotions, and thoughts. It initiates the opening awareness of an expanded world. As you learn about it, you may sense the non-physical realms and convince yourself that you suddenly have the wildest imagination. You may wonder why your imagination has grown so colorful and full of life. But your imagination has not become full of color and lifeinstead, your awareness of the subtle, non-physical world is blooming and beginning to flourish.
