"Light on the Origins of Reiki" is a refreshingly clear and simple new book by Tadao Yamaguchi. It covers Chiyoko Yamaguchi's life story, how Reiki was traditionally practiced and taught in the 1930s, Japanese culture. This is helpful in understanding the origins and background of Reiki -the body's natural cleansing process - and much more.
Co-authored by Tadao Yamaguchi and Frank Arjava Petter, "The Hayashi Reiki Manual" illustrates the guidance Chujiro Hayashi gave when treating various diseases, and features the Ketsueki Kokan Ho massage technique, with some history of Tadao Yamaguchi's family.J

John Sarno's most notable (and controversial) achievement, explained in his book "The MindBody Prescription" , is the development, diagnosis and treatment of TMS (Tension Myositis Syndrome), which is not recognized by mainstream medical science. According to Sarno, TMS is a psychosomatic illness causing chronic back, neck, and limb pain which is not relieved by standard medical treatments. He includes other ailments, such as gastrointestinal problems, dermatological disorders and repetitive-strain injuries as being TMS related. Sarno states that he has successfully treated over ten thousand patients at the Rusk Institute by educating them about the psychological and emotional basis to their pain and symptoms. The awareness of his concept and the application of Reiki can give amazing results.
