Level 3A & B Reiki is devoted to refining our Reiki techniques and studying new healing modalities, and the second day focused on how to teach Reiki to others and attune students to all levels of Reiki. After completing 3B training , a student is considered a Reiki Master, fully prepared to build a reiki community of their own and to pass on the wisdom through classes they sponsor. Students must have completed Reiki levels 1 & 2 to participate.

In level 3A, we do a review of Reiki basics and techniques and the principals and symbols . We then are introduced to three more symbols and receive the Reiki Master attunement. A series of exercises offers many life situations where Reiki can be applied, to refine our skill set and expand our awareness of choices where Reiki can be of service to others.
Sound and Vibrational healing as well as crystal grids are reviewed, and students are invited to work with crystals and tuning forks to experiment with chakra clearing and aura smoothing along with their Reiki practice.
Students in this level receive a silk scarf as their Reiki attunement totem, and they participate in a Reiki craft project to create Reiki stones that they will take home to serve as meditation inspiration, as well as a tool to learn the correct symbols for attunements and other reiki practice.
