Serge King, Hawaiian shaman amd author of Imagineering for Health and Earth Energies, believes in the power of individuals to heal themselves or others. He says that emotions can heal or hurt, and when used as a positive force, their healing power can be stupendous. In this book, he sets forth the ancient Hawaiian tradition which includes a complete program for the prevention and cure of illness--a holistic health program involving the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of human beings.

''You may be asking yourself by now, 'What is this word Huna and what is a Kahuna?' Huna is a Hawaiian word meaning 'that which is hidden, or not obvious.' Sometimes we call it the hidden knowledge of the secret reality. The idea is not that anyone purposely hid it away, but only that it is usually hard to see. The term Kahuna can be translated as 'a transmitter of the secret,' and it was originally intended to be used for those who belonged to an order which practiced and taught the knowledge.''
