Descriptions
Reiki Level I
Reiki is a Japanese healing method which means “universal life energy.” It is a relaxing, gentle, hands-on technique used to reduce stress, pain and tension. This enables the mind to relax, so the body can heal itself. It is ideal for self-care, and children and animals are very receptive to this natural energetic healing. Reiki can be used in conjunction with other healing modalities such as massage therapy and psychotherapy, as well as traditional medical methods including chemotherapy, radiation and surgery. Reiki balances body, mind and spirit and can create profound relaxation and a sense of well-being. Use Reiki Level One training to enhance your own body’s healing abilities and to assist family members and pets in their healing process.
Reiki Level One provides a complete system for healing that can be immediately implemented in your everyday life. Reiki can be learned by anyone in this full day intensive format.
Recommended reading prior to class: Reiki Energy Medicine, by Barnett & Chambers and An Introduction to Reiki, by Mary Lambert.
Reiki Level II
Pre-requisite: Reiki Level I
In this intensive one day format, students will receive the Reiki Level II Attunement (incorporation of Power, Mental and Distant Symbols). Students will learn how to strengthen and further empower the healing process. Students will also learn Distant Healing with Symbols, anchoring mental attitudes, a self-clearing technique and opening the spiritual centers with symbols and sounds. In addition, we will review the chakras and learn in greater depth about healing in those energy centers.
Required activities prior to class: Use Reiki for self-healing regularly and for healing with family members and pets. Be prepared to describe your experience with Reiki. Read Reiki for Beginners, by Vennells and Practical Reiki, by Richard Ellis. Be prepared to discuss these two books in class.
Advanced Restorative
Pre-requisite: Reiki Level I & II
Advanced Restorative requires a deeper level of commitment to the practice of Reiki. It teaches the student how to work with additional modalities to further empower the healing work with clients. In this class, students will learn a pre-surgery technique, how to design affirmations, how to work with imagery in aiding the body to release stuck energy and mobilize the healing potential, a joint clearing technique, and above all, the Tibetan Master Symbol will be given to the student to further empower and fine-tune the work. The student will receive two attunements which will charge up the student’s own healing and growth process.
The requirements for taking the class are as follows:
PLEASE NOTE: ALL WRITTEN WORK MUST BE SUBMITTED AT LEAST TWO WEEKS BEFORE THE CLASS.
1. Complete 15 full body sessions (one of which is to be done on Barb or me). Write each of them up using the appropriate form.

The reports can be short – this is to give us an indication of how you are doing, but also to give you a concrete way to document your progress.
