Anyone can learn Reiki

Learning Reiki requires no prior experience and is suitable for people of all ages and backgrounds.

The word Reiki comes from two Japanese characters: Rei, meaning “universal” or “spiritual wisdom”, and Ki, meaning “life force energy”. Together, Reiki refers to universal life force energy that is present all around us and can be gently channelled for wellbeing and balance.

Founded by Mikao Usui, Reiki is a simple and natural system that can be easily learned for self-care and for supporting family, friends, and clients.

As a Reiki practitioner, you learn practical tools to support yourself through life’s challenges  especially during times when optimism feels hard to find. Reiki encourages gentleness, self-compassion, and emotional resilience. It reminds us that even when difficult emotions arise, we still hold joy, strength, and wisdom within.

Reiki can be practised anytime, anywhere  offering a calm, supportive presence in everyday life.

For those already working in bodywork, health, or therapeutic fields, Reiki can be a valuable and complementary addition to an existing practice.

 

All courses are taught in the Usui/Holy Fire® III system, which combines the traditional Usui lineage passed down through Hawayo Takata with the contemporary Holy Fire ® III energy.  The word “Holy” in Holy Fire ® is not religious. It means “to make whole” and refers to a gentle, universal healing energy that supports balance, well-being, and personal growth.

All courses are taught as the Usui/Holy Fire® III style of Reiki that is a combination of the Usui system as taught by Mrs. Takata, and a special Holy Fire® III style.

Usui Shikki Reiki Ryoho

Reiki Ryoho translates to the divine art of healing and Usui Shikki Reiki Ryoho is the Usui style of Reiki Ryoho.

What is Holy Fire® Reiki

Holy Fire ® Reiki is a new form of Reiki which has been introduced by William Lee Rand of the International Centre for Reiki Training (ICRT) USA.  It is both powerful and gentle and can assist with self healing, empowerment and guidance.  It is included as part of all my Usui Reiki classes.

This energy works alongside traditional Usui Reiki. Many people find that the Holy Fire energy is noticeably more refined and comes from a higher level of consciousness.

In Holy Fire ® Reiki, the attunements are called Placements.  

The word “Holy” in Holy Fire ® is not religious. It means “to make whole” and refers to a gentle, universal healing energy that supports balance, well-being, and personal growth.
