Traditional Usui Reiki
Reiki (pronounced RAY-key) is a powerful yet gentle hands-on holistic treatment which is completely safe and non-intrusive. It is a technique for channeling energy that will balance and harmonise all aspects of a person: body, mind, spirit and emotions.
Reiki is beneficial for many conditions and has many effects. Most common is a feeling of peace and relaxation during and after a treatment and it is extremely beneficial for stress. Reiki can reduce physical and emotional pain and supports the body's natural ability to heal itself. It compliments all other forms of treatment and is a unique experience for each person giving what is needed at that moment in time. Why not come along to experience the beautiful energy Reiki gives.
LEARNING REIKI
Reiki is a very easy modality to learn by anyone of any age. I teach Reiki at all levels in 1 day workshops (except for the Master/Teacher level) for which you will receive a certificate and a book containing all the information that we have covered and more. I also hold a monthly Reiki share where we can get together and develop our skills and confidence as well as sharing experiences and knowledge. It is each persons choice as to which level they want to learn which of course is influenced by the reasons for learning. Reiki can be used for your own healing journey and also used for family and friends. From level 2 you will be able to practice professionally. The workshops are held in an informal style combining both theory and practice in a relaxed setting.
Reiki originated in Japan in the mid 1800's through Dr Mikao Usui. It is believed he came from a wealthy family due to the fact that he was able to receive a good education. He opened his first clinic in Harajuku Tokyo. He became famous for his healing and teachings throughout Japan. Harajuku Harajuku In
1923 on the 1st of September an earthquake shook Tokyo and Yokohama,
measuring 7.9 on the Richter scale. The epicenter was 50 miles from
Tokyo. Over 140,000 deaths were reported. The earthquake started many fires which contributed to a high proportion of the deaths. It was the greatest natural disaster in Japanese
history. Mikao Usui and his students started to give healing in the area
and the demand and need for Reiki
was enormous and as a result of his work he
became even more famous. After this he needed to open an even bigger clinic. He travelled widely in Japan teaching Reiki and doing healing. Dr Usui died in 1926 at the age of 62yrs.Reiki was brought to the west by Mrs Hawayo Takata who was of japanese origin. She received Reiki healing in Japan and went on to learn also. Mrs Takata began to teach Reiki all over North America where it has quickly spread around the world becoming one of the fastest growning healing modalities due to the simplicity of learning
