To most people this is such a frightening realization that it is far easier to completely block it out and focus their attention on something less immediate.

We live in a time of remarkable discovery. The world of quantum physics is revealing that the sub-atomic, “energetic” level of creation relates directly to our health both physically and emotionally. Rapid and effective healing treatments of many kinds have arisen out of this discovery but they have been developed from a new age worldview. Subsequently, these advances have been considered off limits for the Christian community. But the Splankna Therapy Institute is changing that. In this groundbreaking book Sarah J. Thiessen teaches us how to think redemptively in our current healing culture. Grounded in scripture, she walks the reader through the two main arguments against the Christian’s use of energy healing techniques: new age and witchcraft. She leaves the reader with new clarity and empowerment. The energetic level of creation belongs to God. It’s time He got the credit for it. “Being open to discover creative, non-conventional ideas and methods of healing is like discovering the earth is round when the predominate belief states it is flat. Read this book with an open, thoughtful, prayerful mind and heart to discover new understandings of holistic Christian healing.” Dr. Eddie Parish, L.MFT, Parish Hermitage Inc., LA

This book uses information primarily from information-packed Yoga and Reiki healing websites to show the reader exactly what these two controversial topics believe and teach. The provided information will surprise most readers, because these two subjects are considered by many to be healthy and not spiritually evil in any way. However, when you have finished reading the information about these two topics, you will know that they are in direct opposition to the teachings of the Bible and the Lord Jesus. Reiki healers are not empowered by the Holy Spirit for their healing. And it will be shown that Yoga has a direct connection with Hindu gods from the Hindu religion. Also, it will be shown that their is no such Biblical exercise as "Christian Yoga."

Reiki is an ancient and profoundly simple system of “laying on of hands” healing derived from Tibetan Buddhism. In the West, Reiki has been kept highly secret for many years. ESSENTIAL REIKI presents full information on all three degrees of this healing system, most of it in print for the first time. Teaching from the perspective that Reiki healing belongs to all people, Diane Stein breaks new ground in her classic guide to this ancient practice. While no book can replace the directly received Reiki “attunements,” ESSENTIAL REIKI provides everything else that the healer, practitioner, and teacher of this system needs.
