Becoming a Reiki Practitioner

When thinking about becoming a reiki practitioner, it's helpful to see it like becoming an ambassador; often needing to explain reiki natural healing to friends and clients. Taking the time to learn a little about learning reiki will pay off. You will be able to choose a teacher well and articulate reiki concepts to your friends and family. I'd like to help help you if you're thinking about learning reiki.

It is important to find a competent reiki teacher for your initiations and training. How do you find the right teacher? By becoming educated about reiki and how to choose a teacher.

There are three levels of reiki learning in the Usui System of Natural Healing. Each has its own level of initiation, commitment and personal healing involved for the practitioner. First-Degree and Second-Degree Reiki are usually weekend workshops. In the Usui System of Natural Healing, the Reiki Master training requires an apprenticeship.

I love to teach the First and Second Degree classes as they form and will soon offer a home-study course for these levels.

The best thing is, once you are attuned to the energy it is with you for life!

To really know something like natural healing takes time. It is my goal to help develop independent, confident, capable, and compassionate reiki practitioners. I think of myself as 'related to all of my students. This means our relationship is continuous and I remain available for questions and support after your training. Each student gets the training, guidance, and encouragement they need to become satisfied with and confident about their reiki skills.

Reiki Kanji Meaning

What is Reiki?

Reiki ("ray-key"), the Usui System of Natural Healing, is a natural healing system based on "Universal Life Energy" and supporting the body's natural ability to heal itself.

Reiki gives powerful access to a means of encouraging sustainable health and well being. It's essence is meditative and that quality makes it ideal for stress management, anxiety reduction, dis-ease prevention and peace of mind.
Reiki is profoundly relaxing and regenerating! You rest on a bodywork table or floor pad, warm and comfortably clothed, and listen to soft music. Reiki is given through gentle touch and will quiet your mind, support your body's natural healing, celebrate your spirit, and improve your mind-body-spirit connection.

Physiological benefits include an increase in endorphin production, (the 'feel good' hormones), reduction of blood pressure, and stimulation of the immune system. Reiki heals the cause and assists in eliminating the effects of an imbalance. Reiki brings the body into harmony by relieving physical and emotional blockages.

Reiki helps minimize your sense of helplessness when facing disease or the trauma of modern society. Reiki can be used in conjunction with standard medical procedures and religious beliefs without conflict.
