Reiki for Life: The Essential Guide to Reiki Practice

"I often read reviews and wonder if all the enthusiastic prose is really accurate - in this case it is. Penelope Quest has written something akin to an encyclopedia of Reiki, in a straight forward and easy to read way. It is a comprehensive work, practical and pragmatic, whilst communicating how wonderful the Energy is, and many ways in which you can work with it.
I initially read this book after completing my 1st Degree to increase my understanding and reaffirm what I'd been taught. I've since completed my 2nd Degree and use it for reference, and have recommended it to others. That is the best indicator of how good a book really is - if you'd recommend it to your friends, it's definitely a great book!
For a regular practitioner it's a fantastic resource. For someone just starting on their Reiki path, you couldn't do any better than buy this book to help you reach your potential. Brilliant."

"There are many books on the market on this subject, this one has a balance that gives the holistic view of how Reiki developed from Japan and made it's way into the West. I recommend this book to all my students and use it constantly as reference during reiki courses."

"This is an excellent book that I'd recommend as a must-have on your bookshelf. It answered all of my questions and is written in a friendly style. The instructions are clear and comprehensive, covering everything from what to expect in your Level 1 attunement through to how to set yourself up as a Reiki practitioner. Not just a 'how-to' book it covers ethics, spiritual growth and a chapter on 'creative uses' of the skill.
I consider the included lists of resources and reading recommendations valuable as this makes this book a good start for anyone interested in further Reiki research."

"This is essential reading for Reiki friends of all levels - Masters included. Penelope writes in a lucid style that is compelling as well as informative. She invites you to think about your own beliefs and experiences, whilst also listening to what she has to say. She is never judgemental about the variety of different approaches to Reiki that abound now.

Her text is enormously helpful as a guide to teaching Reiki and I have added some of her suggestions on 'extras' to my practice. Everything you need to know about Reiki is there somewhere. I will recommend this book to my Reiki students and it will never be far from my side. Buy it!"
