ReikiReiki is an ancient self-development, meditation and healing system that was rediscovered in Japan early last century. Its core purpose is creating more balance and vitality in all aspects of your life; your mind, your emotions, your body and your relationships.
Reiki means 'Universal Life Energy'. Eastern medicine, yoga and martial arts have always worked with this energy; it is known as 'Ki' in Japan, as 'Chi' in China, and 'Prana' in India. As a complementary method, Reiki is being used in GP surgeries, hospices, cancer support groups and drug rehabilitation. However, Reiki treatments do not replace the need to seek medical advice if you have a health problem. |

What happens in a SessionThe first step of every session is making sure you feel comfortable and relaxed. You choose whether you want to sit on a chair or lie on the massage table, whether you want some music, extra blankets or pillows. There is no need to remove any clothing.
I will then put my hands gently in a series of positions - on or over the body (you can choose this as well). In some positions, I will remain for a while, in others, I will move on quite quickly. You don't have to worry about the timing and intensity at all: Your energy system will only draw in as much Reiki energy as is needed, using it in whatever way is most appropriate at the time. Reiki may be felt as a flow of energy, a mild tingling, warmth, coolness, other sensations, or nothing at all. After the session, you will feel relaxed and calm, and may want to rest for a while. |

Training: Reiki 1 CourseLearning Reiki 1 feels like a celebration of yourself: supported by Reiki energy, you will re-connect to your strength and beauty, and explore your ability to transform and heal.

Content of the CourseYou will learn the basics of energy work and Reiki history and principles. You will explore methods of meditation and self treatments, which will enable you to create a regular Reiki practice for yourself. You will also learn how to treat others - both with the traditional hand positions and in an intuitive way. We will discuss the ethical and practical aspects of offering Reiki to others.
The most important aspects of this training are the attunements: the strengthening of your energy-channels (crown, third eye, heart and palms), which allow Reiki to flow freely. I will also give you a Reiju empowerment in the style of Mikao Usui, which will connect you to Reiki energy even more. |

Reiki is well researched and many health care professionals (including the NHS) accept it as a complimentary therapy. The UK Reiki Federation has published a summary of a variety of studies that measure the impact of Reiki as a Healing Art.
