What is Reiki Practice?

Reiki is an ancient form of healing that provides physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual benefits. The term Reiki (ray-key) means universal life force energy.  This nurturing energy is guided through the hands of the Reiki practitioner and can also be offered long distance. Reiki brings the client into a deep state of relaxation, enhancing the client’s natural abilities to heal oneself.

Reiki practice connects you to your innate healing abilities, offering an effective way to help yourself and others. Reiki can be easily blended with caregiving roles and is a nurturing self-care tool. Treatments are useful to decrease stress and anxiety, reduce pain, improve clarity of thought, release old conditioning and traumas and gain spiritual perspective. Reiki is a holistic practice that you can use anytime and anywhere.

In this uplifting and experiential one-day class you will learn Reiki Level I, the system of gentle hands-on relaxation and healing originating from Japan. You will learn the history of Reiki, how to apply it to everyday life and practice Reiki hands-on healing. At the end of the class you will leave certified in Reiki I and be able to use Reiki hands-on healing for yourself and others. You will receive the manual “Reiki: The Healing Touch” by William Lee Rand to assist in your studies.
