Reiki Training

It is difficult to be at the mercy of doctors, medications, and treatments and feel helpless in the process of your own healing. Learning Reiki gives you the ability to become an active participant in your healing process be it a physical, psychological, or even spiritual ailment you are facing.

There are several reasons for someone to want to pursue a Reiki training, which is also referred to as a Reiki attunement or Reiki initiation. For many people, especially the way the economy stands, regular Reiki sessions can become a financial burden that gets in the way of receiving the Reiki work people desire.

Learning Reiki for yourself, will allow you to be able to channel energy to yourself everyday, for the rest of your life, without having to pay someone else to do it for you.

Another reason people become attuned to Reiki is to be able to aid their loved ones in the healing process. Sometimes, simply loving someone and being there as a support person still leaves us feeling helpless and wanting to do more.

By learning Reiki, you will be able to become an active participant in helping alleviate pain, speeding up recovery, and creating a general sense of well being for your loved ones. As much as it benefits the recipient of Reiki, it helps to calm those feelings of helplessness as we support our loved ones through medical and psychological conditions.

There are no pre-requisites for learning Reiki. Some people do have an innate talent for healing just as someone can have an innate talent for shooting a basketball. Unlike basketball, by learning Reiki and practicing daily, you will be guaranteed to become a successful Reiki practitioner where as you are not guaranteed to become an NBA star!

Reiki is virtually technique-less, there is no dogma to follow, and there is nothing you must believe in order to be able to channel Reiki and help people and yourself feel better. Learning Reiki is not dependent on intellectual capacity, the ability to meditate, nor does it take years to become an effective Reiki practitioner. Due to the above factors, ANYONE CAN LEARN REIKI!

The only thing a person needs to learn Reiki is willingness to experience. That’s all! I assume that if you are reading this page and considering learning Reiki for yourself, there is at least some curiosity that will perhaps lead to willingness to experience. I invite you to email me with any questions you may have about anything related to Reiki or check out the Reiki frequently asked questions page.

What happens at my Reiki training?

For those interested in Reiki second-degree training, please contact me via the "Contact Me" form on the left or we can speak after a first-degree training. I am not training Reiki Masters at this time but plan to do so in the next year. Below is information on Reiki first-degree training.

As we are all individuals with very different perspectives, life experiences, interests, etc., different Reiki masters structure their Reiki training differently.

I try to accommodate my training to the individual that has a lot going on in their lives. Ideally with all the time in the world, I would prefer to have Reiki training over a period of several days in order for people to get a strong grasp on the practice of Reiki.

It can be difficult to schedule training over several days so my training is held on one day for a period of approximately 3 hrs. If more time is needed, I will be happy to stay longer and explain or answer any and all questions to the best of my ability.

What you will receive:

-Reiki manual (hard copy)
-Reiki attunement to Reiki first degree
-Reiki manual (soft copy) emailed to you two weeks after taking the initial training
-Certificate of Reiki first-degree training
-The ability to channel Reiki for the rest of you lives
-My ongoing personal support through your experience with Reiki

From my experience, I have found with too much information upfront, people's heads tend to get in the way of their hands. By this I mean that information can deepen one's practice of Reiki, but at the beginning, it is much more beneficial to feel comfortable with the actual practice of Reiki.

Due to this fact, my training are much more experiential than academic. I will provide the basics of Reiki in terms of what Reiki is, the importance of daily practice, what to expect when channeling Reiki, the recommended hand positions to start with both for yourself and for others, and an open forum to answer any questions you may have about Reiki.

You will receive the attunement that opens up your system to be able to channel Reiki out of your palms, and we will immediately practice Reiki on ourselves to understand what it feels like. If people are comfortable, there is time to work on each other to get the feeling of how to practice Reiki on others.

I ask for a minimum of 2 people to come to the training, it would be great if you and a friend, partner, or family member would like to take the training with you. Reiki can help bring people together, help remind people what is truly important, and give people a tool they can use to alleviate suffering on all levels for oneself and one’s loved ones.

I invite you to email me with any questions if you are unsure if learning Reiki is right for you. If you feel more comfortable with another Reiki master, I am a complete advocate of working with someone you feel comfortable with and who you trust. If my training is a good fit for you that is wonderful, if I can help answer any questions that aid you in your journey to learning Reiki with someone else, I would be happy to do that as well.

I look forward to empowering you as I was empowered by my Reiki Master, to take control of my life and bring balance my mind, body, and soul. For information on fees and locations of Reiki training, please click here.
