THE FIVE HEALING PRINCIPLES:
1. Just for today, I shall not worry.
2. Just for today, I shall not anger.
3. I shall earn my living honestly.
4. I shall honor every living thing
5. I shall show gratitude for all of my blessings. Reiki (pronounced ray-key) is a Japanese word representing Universal Life Energy, the energy, which is in, and all around us. Reiki, when applied for purposes of healing, addresses body, mind and spirit. It accelerates the body’s ability to heal physical ailments and opens the mind and spirit to the causes of disease, disharmony and pain. With this understanding, you take responsibility for your life and experience the joys of balanced wellness. The Usui System: The Usui system is a natural healing aid. Although Reiki is a means of working with energy that we cannot see, it requires no particular belief system; it is not a religion. This system was born out of the dedication and experience of Dr. Mikao Usui, a Japanese Christian educator from the 1800s. Through travel, research, study and education he evolved a healing system based on ancient Buddhist teachings written in Sanskrit. The spent the rest of his life practicing and teaching this method of natural healing, which involved the laying on of hands and attunement to the energy. The Usui system of healing continues to be taught by Reiki Masters who are trained in the original teachings of Reiki. Receiving A Reiki Treatment: A Reiki treatment is a light hands-on process whereby the Reiki practitioner transfers Universal Life Force to the recipient, whether it be to the body of another person or into the practitioners own body. A Reiki treatment is safe non-intrusive and non-manipulative; there are no substances applied to the body and the recipient remains fully clothed. While focus during a full Reiki treatment is given tot he major organs, charkas, every cell of the body benefits. In addition to the formal body positions Reiki can be applied to any area of the body that has been injured. Reiki will even work through bandages or a cast and can also be transmitted at a distance by a level 2 or higher practitioner. The sensation felt by the recipient is usually a feeling of warmth, well being and comfort. IV. Reiki One Program
The first level of training is an opportunity to expand one’s experience of life through the Reiki initiation process, which re-awakens one’s own natural healing channel. This energy “attunement” occurs in a ceremonial act shared by the Reiki Master with each student. The student is instructed in the history of Reiki, the basic hand positions, how to treat one’s self for an increased level of personal wellness as well as how to use Reiki in one’s own life in service to others. Some time will be spent learning about the chakras and energy levels. Class time is provided for students to begin practicing Reiki on themselves and on other students, under the caring supervision of the Reiki Master. (Approximately 5 hrs. of class time)

The second-degree class involves 2 more “attunements” by the Reiki master and instruction in the conscious use of ancient symbols to: increase the power of the treatments, to reach the subconscious mind, and to send the energy to someone from a distance/remote therapy. of class time)
