Title: you will get what you pay for
Review: I am a reiki junkie/Master-Teacher, though I consider reiki MY tool for self-development. I bought this book and sold it as soon as I read it once. Why? There are many books that have come out now that are superb and give you better/correct information. Diane Stein is still the best. If you want to learn something right, get the right materials. This one is not it, however well-written it is. Reiki has its roots in the East and when a student learns healing or a mantra in the East, a Guru is an essential part of the dynamic. Anything else is cheating yourself of the experience and the lesson. There are free teachers available. Ask and you shall receive, although payment is only an exchange of energy, since all things in yoga have to be in balance. You may have an "experience" when you watch a video, but that is not it folks. When you get attuned, get the real thing. Money is not everything, the experience is.
