Reiki - healing in your hands

Greetings, everyone.

REIKI - we thought our readers might appreciate a blog post from our sister imprint, Geddes and Grosset, so here it is to share, with warm thanks to the author of the book, Reiki, Jenni Austin.

Reiki principles by Jenni Austin.

'Just for today, endeavour not to worry.

Just for today, endeavour not to anger.

Just for today, count your many blessings.

Just for today, work diligently and honestly, including on yourself.

Just for today, honour all living things.'

Jenni Austin’s book Practising Reiki has long been held as a comprehensive introduction to Reiki. Reiki is a technique to aid healing. The book is available from our sister imprint, Geddes and Grosset and our website at : Geddes and Grosset | A book on reiki and healing

The Reiki precepts are that the person seeking healing must have the real desire for change, the desire to be healed completely. Change is not easy. There should be an exchange for Reiki, whether it be money or an energetic one; this is to honour Reiki, and to accept true healing, while removing the conditions of obligation and control.

A Reiki treatment combines the use of universal life energy, with the warm, reassurance and healing power of human touch. Reiki is most popularly known as a hands-on healing technique. Jenni Austin’s book says that while the hands-on techniques help with health problems, but also can help with just about any area of life, from relationships to work.

Reiki is not a religion. It is spiritual but not tied to a religion. People of all sorts of faith and belief, benefit from Reiki daily. Reiki is a specific energy that helps our own healing systems to work to their full potential. It helps us to revitalise and balance ourselves. Reiki is not a replacement for medical treatment; it is not a cure all; it is not a cult or weird sect, and it not just a therapy.

While the techniques of Reiki can be taught in a weekend, for most who train, Reiki is a deep commitment for life. There are many classes in how to train on the web. If used with common sense, Reiki is safe and effective once training has been completed.

Life can change overnight, but it can take a minimum of twenty-one days to change your habits. 21 days is a recognised time to introduce you to any habit-breaking behaviour or regime of change.

Halloween, traditions, craft at home, with 'Tumshie' by Mark Mechan

https://www.thecourier.co.uk/fp/news/3814009/halloween-neeps-tattie-bogle/

Hello everyone,

Waverley Books here and we are delighted to share this review today in 'The Courier' for Mark Mechan's 'Tumshie'.

Mark has long celebrated art and craft at home, and the lovely memories of making your own Halloween without spending a fortune at the shops.

Mark's book 'Tumshie' is a lovely picture book that celebrates making costumes for Halloween from cardboard boxes, and paint. It shows how Halloween can be made and celebrated in a family without spending on merchandise, and the fun of making your own costume.

Dad makes the costume for Elliot and records the funny improvised costumes of other children to create special memories and excitement. Dad shows the effort of carving a lantern and fun involved in preparing for the party that makes the resulting party : dooking for apples, and other games so memorable.

Whisky In Your Pocket by Neil Wilson has been published in The Netherlands, translated by Hans Offringa

Neil Wilson's book "Whisky in Your Pocket" has been published in the Netherlands.

The translation into Dutch is by Hans Offinga. Hans Offringa has a long history with Neil Wilson's book.

WHISKY IN YOUR POCKET

Neil Wilson's book was first compiled by Wallace Milroy called 'The Malt Whisky Almanac'. That book was a guide for Scottish malt whisky, and was published in 1986. At that time Wallace Milroy with his brother Jack Milroy owned a small drinks shop at 3 Greek Street, in Soho, London.

Hans Offringa is the author of several books on whisky, and include De Smaak van Whisky. Hans met Wallace Milroy, and also Neil. Hans' interest in malt whisky led to not only a life long passion for malt, but also a career as a whisky writer and then publisher.
