Learning Reiki
Becoming a Professional Reiki Practitioner
Any one can learn to use Reiki regardless of the age, health conditions, religion, qualification or the background. Only the intention to become a Reiki Practitioner is required.
Ability to use Reiki is transferred to a student by the Reiki Master through the process known as “Attunement”. Attunement process opens up the energy pathways in the body and permanently connects the student to Reiki. Usui Shiki Ryoho has three levels of Attunements, each level opens up more energy pathways and increases the connection to Reiki. These levels are referred to as Usui Shiki Ryoho Degree I, Usui Shiki Ryoho Degree II and Usui Shiki Ryoho Master.
Usui Shiki Ryoho Degrees / Levels
1) Usui Shiki Ryoho Degree I Attunement
This level initiates the student and permanently connects them to Reiki. Once attuned to Degree I, student can begin to perceive Reiki and perform self - rebalancing.
2) Usui Shiki Ryoho Degree II Attunement
This level further connects a student to Reiki. Once attuned to Degree II, student can perform Reiki treatments on other people, animals, plants, places and situations. Students are also given the Reiki symbols that will help them increase the connection with Reiki, treat emotional issues and perform distant healing.
3) Usui Shiki Ryoho Master/Teacher Attunement
This level completes the student’s connection with Reiki and to become a Master/Teacher. After being initiated to a Master/Teacher, one can conduct Reiki courses and perform attunements.
What Happens in a Reiki Attunement?
Reiki attunement is a ceremony Reiki Master performs for the student. Master will make use of the Reiki symbols and follow the attunement procedure with the intention of attuning the student to Reiki. And the student take part in the attunement procedure with the intention of been attuned to Reiki.
Attunement is a rewarding experience to both the student and Master. Diverse experiences have been reported by students about their attunement. Some of such experiences are seeing white light, blue light, feeling the energy pouring from above, feeling only the presence of the self and not feeling head/body, not perceiving time, deep relaxation and trance. Also there are some students having sudden emotional breakups caused by the energetic blocks being released. Overall, during or after an attunement, the student feels an amazing sense of alignment and harmony.
