Course Description
The practice of Reiki empowers practitioners with the awareness and ability to either develop or change how life is experienced.This course will introduce students to Usui Reiki Ryoho as an effective practice for resolving the human stress response and increasing awareness of subtle energy. It is also an effective practice for attending to factors that influence psychological and physiological dynamics. So many world-class research organizations have identified stress as a profoundly important factor to the development and meaning of disease and illness.
Reiki level one concentrates on principles and experience of energy and energy work as a method for changing how health and disease or illness are experienced.

The curriculum is delivered over time to allow the student opportunity to absorb the experience as well as to apply the principles and practices to a variety of everyday circumstances and challenges.
