Living Reiki: Takata’s Teachings

Reiki is the energy of life. In the Usui System of Natural Healing, this energy is honored and used as a guide in daily life. It offers a simple path to perceive and experience our lives as a sacred honorable
experience. These stories are illustrations from the life of a woman who lived the Reiki teachings. They are funny and serious, happy and sad, reflecting her own upbringing and always demonstrating her deep
trust in the Life Energy. The stories also show the growth of Takata's healing power and the simplicity with which she accepted it. From humble beginnings, she became a great figure of strength, loved and
respected by all who knew her.

In this loving memoir to her teacher, Fran Brown has gathered the colorful stories that Hawayo Takata told during her thirty-five years as the only Reiki Master teaching. The stories create an inspirational
panorama of Takata's teachings, filled with the practical and spiritual aspects of a life given to healing. Fran Brown, like her teacher, is a Reiki Master who shares her work all over the world.
