Welcome to Reiki – a powerful, hands-on, energetic healing art that enhances natural vitality, activates our innate healing processes and restores harmony on all levels. In this professional training that draws on traditional Japanese Reiki traditions and Western Reiki styles, you will be “attuned” or initiated to the first level of Reiki energy—empowering you to use Reiki for your own self healing, and for treating friends and family.
Reiki is an incredible tool for relieving stress, boosting immunity, easing pain, balancing emotions, enhancing creativity, and fostering spiritual awareness and intuition. This Level I training will teach you practical ways to integrate Reiki into your daily life, and also includes supervised hands-on practice.
In Reiki Level I, you will learn:
• What is Reiki?
• History & origins of Reiki
• The Reiki principles
• The Reiki hand positions
• Self healing with Reiki
• Reiki healing for friends and family
• Using Reiki creatively
• Energy hygiene
You will receive your Level I Certification upon completion of a 15-hour outside practicum.
