When words spring to life

"Books are mirrors: You only see in them what you already have inside you.” Carlos Ruiz Zafón

THE INVITATION: The power found within the pages of a book is both intriguing and often surprising. This space is dedicated to individuals interested in exploring significant writings and teachings on Usui Reiki, to foster greater clarity, perspective, compassion, peace, and well-being for everyone. Participants will engage in weekly independent reading and take part in open group discussions. We will delve into key topics and share a warm community presence. Each week, we will cover 15 to 25 pages, depending on the chapters selected. For more information, please visit my website: https://www.moonstonesanctuary.com/reikibookclub

“Sometimes, the most impactful books are those that challenge readers and create a sense of discomfort. By offering an opportunity to face uncomfortable truths, words can lead to a deeper understanding of one's own biases and internal struggles. The value lies not only in the pleasure reading brings, but also in the moments it makes us unsettled, pushing us to grapple with difficult ideas and reflect on personal faults.”
