A VERY interesting book to read. I had been coming actross mention of Huna Teachings in some of the reading I have been doing lately and had been quite keen to do a course in it. I looked on the internet to see what was available and felt something was not ringing true for me about many of the courses offered and I decided to read up a bit more before proceeding on this path. I am glad I did. My recommendation is to read this book before you do any Huna Training.

This is a fantastic eye-opener!

Working in the spiritual and holistic environment, I was curious about Huna, and anxious to discover what all the buzz was about. After reading Dr. Kaehr's book, I now know the true origins of this interesting, yet controversial practice. This book explains in detail (yet layman's terms) where and how Huna was developed and the benefits it provides to those seeking holistic resources. Be aware, that you should buy this book before taking any Huna instruction. You will then approach learning Huna with your eyes wide open.

She did her homework for this book!

The author began her experience with Huna, believing the fabrications of Max Freedom Long and ended up by going to Hawaii to learn for herself the truth about Huna thinking. She performs the dissection of the belief with great aplomb and instead of gloating over her discoveries, rather expresses what is good about the belief. The book has been well thought out and written in an unbiased fashion. The most telling aspect of her research is that she dedicates the book to the Huna fouder, Max Long. That should say it all both to those Huna believers and to those who might want to learn about it.

An amazing adventure!

I had been hearing about Huna but had no idea what it was until I read the book. I tried the exercises at home which really helped and I thought the book itself ws very interesting,and the complex topic was written about in an easy to understand way. The book is like a mystery and you don't know what is going to happen until the last chapter! Very exciting ending!

A great story with helpful exercises!

I liked the book because it tells a compelling story about the author's journey to find truth. It kind of reads like a detective novel, a real page-turner, that wraps up neatly in the end. At the same time there is a self-help aspect to the book and one of the exercises in particular is really powerful!
