What is Reiki?

Reiki is an energy healing method for stress relief, pain relief, and better health. It’s a natural, holistic way to bring your mind, body, emotions, and spirit back into balance, so your body can heal itself more effectively.

What’s Practical Reiki™?

Practical Reiki is a strong, simple way to learn Reiki healing. It’s an “unplugged” approach, which doesn’t require hand positions, symbols, or complicated rituals. Instead, Practical Reiki™ teaches you how to work with Reiki using a two-step process. You also learn how your intuition works, and how to observe it.

Who should learn Practical Reiki™?

Learning Reiki is for EVERYONE! Regardless of your experience with intuition or energy, you CAN easily learn this powerful energy healing technique that will put healing into your own hands and change your life. Practical Reiki offers clear, down to earth explanations and analogies that most Reiki classes don’t cover. Learn what energy healing is, how to feel it, and how it works. Learn many ways that you can affect your health and circumstances, and help others. Learn what attunements are and how to give them.

How can I learn Practical Reiki™?

We recommend starting with our FREE intro to Practical Reiki™ Mini-course. This offers a great introduction to reiki, using intention, intuition, and the chakras. It is also a prerequisite for the Practical Reiki™ Independent Study course where you will receive your attunements.

Can Practical Reiki™ really be learned online/ by distance?

Yes! Reiki is life force energy. It’s everywhere and connects us all. Distance healing works, and distance attunements (the transmission of the ability to practice Reiki), are as effective as learning in person. Your teachers are passionately dedicated to your complete confidence and success in learning Reiki, so your learning experience will be effective. Your teachers are there for you for life to offer support, guidance, and encouragement. You won’t find a better program anywhere.

What can I do with Practical Reiki™ once I’ve learned it?
