Level one Reiki training is the foundation for understanding what Reiki is and how it can be applied to enhance and support personal health. The session begins with an introduction to the energetic body and the healing potential of Reiki. We look at the role of intention and purpose in thoughts and karmic disposition. We next explore the history of Reiki and the founders. We learn the 5 precepts of Reiki and traditional Reiki meditation. A series of energy exercises help us to feel & understand energy better. Students will be attuned to level one Reiki. After the attunement, we progress through a series of Reiki exercises to practice, beginning with the Reiki Bear Project (injecting teddy bears with Reiki healing and light - these bears are later donated to children's hospitals and disadvantaged youth programs as a Karmic project reminding us of our role as healers and symbolizing how we must all share our light where it is needed). We move up to energy exchanges with plants and discuss Reiki for animals, and then we progress to self healing practices, touching lightly upon traditional Reiki share activity. This program covers Usui reiki systems, reviewing both defined hand positions and the intuitive method.

The Reiki Master weekend offers training in levels 1, 2 and Master 3A & B in a sequential manner to build information. Students will have a comprehensive understanding of Reiki (theory and practice) and learn to attune others. This program includes a manual, materials and meals. Students meet from 7:30 am - 6:3o pm on Saturday and Sunday. This does not include housing. If needed, please call about availability.
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.
