Synopsis

Reality is experience, and experience is reality,” says Hawaiian shaman Serge King, speaking of Huna, the esoteric tradition in which he was reared.King emphasizes that all of us have the ability to shift from one world to another. The difference is that shamans do it purposefully, while the rest of us are unaware of it. He trains us to engage in the process consciously in order to expand our human potential. Among books on Huna, this one is unique for offering actual practices for changing our reality to create the life we want.

In a user-friendly, conversational style, King’s chapters explain the four worlds of a shaman and basic Huna principles. Then, citing case studies, he guides us in how to change reality in each of the four worlds, bringing in ESP, telepathy, the perception of auras, telekinesis, dreaming, magical flight, and, finally, soul retrieval and the great power of healing.

It sounds simple,” says King, and it is. The most difficult part is to accept the simplicity, because that means changing one's idea about what reality is. And that's what this book is all about.”

Review

"'The world is what you think it is.' So author Serge Kahili King describes the core principle of Huna. King grew up learning Huna shamanism and later studied African shamanism as well. A doctorate in psychology completed the skill set that makes him the leading author and teacher of Hawaiian shamanic tradition. He writes clearly and directly about this ancient, esoteric wisdom in Changing Reality. The organizational structure of the book further adds to the accessibility of its content, and practice exercises are icing on the cake. Let customers know this is a breath of Polynesian fresh air in an increasingly crowded market." --Anna Jedrziewski, Retailing Insight magazine, April-May 2013

I highly recommend this well written and insightful book, thoughtfully compiled by Serge Kahili King. The author has studied intensively with Hawaiian shamans. He has travelled to more than fifty countries and runs his own centre in Hawaii. The interested reader will find this book replete with information, practical tips and well researched background materials. The path of the shaman is not an easy one, but if you or someone close to you feels this calling they could not go wrong with this book." Leslie Crossingham, New Dawn Magazine March-April 2014

"If your reality seems burdensome, why not alter it? "Changing Reality: Huna Practices to Create Life You Want" is a spiritual read from Serge Kahili King who presents a twisting idea of spirituality and shamanism, taking traditional Hawaiian faith ideas and offering them for wider understanding and ideas. "Changing Reality" is a strong addition to spirituality and reference collections and for those seeking a new take, highly recommended." -- The Midwest Book Review, May 2013

"I am a huge fan of Serge Kahili King's books, and his latest offering, Changing Reality, offers tools for understanding reality at a deeper level, and for changing your life in amazing ways."
Mary Olsen Kelly, author of Path of the Pearl; Discover Your Treasures Within, Chicken Soup for the Breast Cancer Survivor's Soul and Finding Each Other

If you want to go from aligning with reality to actually creating it, this book is your guide. Brimming with solid shamanic techniques for bringing the extraordinary into the realm of the ordinary, it will help you transcend your beliefs and assumptions so that you can not only experience, but live, the spirit of Aloha.”
Tamarack Song, author of Entering the Mind of the Tracker: Native Practices for Developing Intuitive Consciousness and Discovering Hidden Nature

Whether you want to increase your own health and happiness, or work as a healer, this book clearly and concisely explains how to use the special shamanic tools available to us all. King has let out the secrets to shamanism!”
Becca Chopra, journalist, yoga and meditation instructor and author of The Chakra Diaries

King shows us, in this truly fascinating and compelling book, how to begin to re-claim our ancient birthright. Leaving us no doubt, through his accessible, lucid prose, that he walks his talk,’ this teacher of magic does not mystify, nor try to awe us. He illustrates, step by step, how we all have forgotten our magical natures, in bad habits of thinking and perceiving, and selling reality short--of the living, breathing epiphany that has always been available to us.”
Stephen Larsen, Ph.D., author, The Shaman’s Doorway, The Mythic Imagination and The Fundamentalist Mind
