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 second level of Reiki energy—empowering you to become a Reiki practitioner, and work with the sacred Reiki symbols.
Reiki is an incredible tool for relieving stress, boosting immunity, easing pain, balancing emotions, enhancing creativity, and fostering spiritual awareness and intuition. This Level II training will teach you the many ways to incorporate the Reiki symbols in your healing practice and in your daily life, and also includes supervised hands-on practice.
In Reiki Level II, you will learn:
• The Reiki symbols
• Reiki healing with clients
• Distant Reiki healing
• Space cleansing
You will receive your Level II Certification upon completion of a 15-hour outside practicum.
