Reiki - the “Usui System of Natural Healing” - is a Japanese form of stress reduction and relaxation with many benefits. It promotes physical, emotional and spiritual healing by triggering the body's own ability to heal itself.

This workshop serves as an introduction to Reiki. The course presents its history, the basic hand positions, and the Western techniques introduced in the U.S. by Mrs. Takata. It focuses primarily on physical healing through a combination of lecture, discussion, meditation and practice time. You will be attuned as a Reiki I practitioner. You will have an opportunity to both give a Reiki treatment and experience one for yourself, and you will receive a Reiki I Manual and Certificate. There is no prerequisite to this course.

*Required purchase of manual thru teacher $20 at time of class (unless student already owns manual – Reiki – The Healing Touch – First and Second Degree Manual by William Lee Rand)
