Reiki ...

* Is gentle, relaxing & rejuvenating
* Alleviates stress & encourages healing
* Helps clear energetic blocks and move stagnant energies
* Helps support the immune system
* Complements other healing modalities
* Promotes inner peace and spiritual growth

Would you like to experience deep relaxation, healing, and rejuvenation? How about a feeling of calmness and inner peace? When we address what's going on within ourselves at deeper levels, our physical and mental conditions begin to improve and heal.

There are many wonderful, effective types of energy balancing in this world. Reiki is one of the simplest yet most effective methods known for encouraging the body, mind and spirit into harmony.

You may benefit from one, or from a series of wellness/healing sessions. A session lasts about an hour, in a peaceful, distraction-free environment. You will lay fully clothed upon a Reiki table. A single session is helpful for relaxing and is useful as an "energy tune-up." Those interested in deeper healing may wish to explore a more intensive series of wellness sessions.

Reiki classes (all levels) are also offered for those who may be interested in learning this simple, hands-on wellness technique for use upon themselves and with others. With your "reiki hands" you can help your friends, family, pets, and enhance your spiritual growth and development.

Reiki is the source of Universal Life Force Energy, also known to us as unconditional love or Divine Love. Reiki is the name given by Dr. Mikao Usui to describe the healing system he founded and practiced, after re-discovering the keys to hands-on healing in ancient Sanskrit texts.

Why learn Reiki?

The Reiki practitioner is specifically attuned to that energy & is able to transmit it in a pure & intensive form. Reiki revitalizes the endocrine system, organs & chakra system of the body. It even helps animals and plants! Reiki assists in unblocking stuck energy, relaxing you and freeing you to move forward in life.

We all have healing energy in our hands; this was a gift given to us by the Creator. Because of many centuries of disuse and the loss of this awareness, we have become “out of tune” with these healing energies. Through learning to do Reiki, you receive a series of attunements that reconnect you to higher frequency levels of energy, and you are able to do healing and balancing work with yourself & others. Many people learn Reiki simply to be able to work on themselves & their families, pets & friends. Others learn Reiki I, then Reiki II, and maybe even go on to Reiki III, because they wish to have the highest levels of attunement, and may even choose to open their own Reiki practice. The Reiki Master Teacher is the highest level of Reiki training. The Reiki Master Teacher is able to provide attunements/initiations to others, and teach the various aspects of energy work, such as history, hand placements, organs, gland and chakra information, distance healing, sacred symbols and more.

For a reasonable cost, one can learn Reiki in a weekend. Reiki is easy to learn and simple to use. Once you’ve been attuned, the energies are with you for life! If you’d like to read more about Reiki, a good book for starters is Paula Horan’s Empowerment Through Reiki.
