Reiki is a non-specialist treatment, it's simply a hands-on approach to self-care. Therefore, you can completely learn Reiki by yourself through a classroom model or a professional instructor.
Reiki can be easily learned and practiced as a way of self-care by anyone, young or old, or his or her health condition. Children, the elderly or even patients can practice Reiki. No special background or certification is required for Reiki training. One of the hallmarks of Reiki practice is its simplicity: it can be learned in about ten hours of live training, through a classroom model, and requires no knowledge of bioenergy or care. health care.
1. Learning to practice Reiki can bring a lot of benefits?
While receiving Reiki from another person, friend or professional is a wonderful experience, there are many reasons why you should consider teaching yourself how to practice Reiki. Self-care is not only valuable for people with health problems, but it also helps busy people who are looking for more balance in their lives.
Daily practice of Reiki as a way of self-care helps to restore balance, reduce stress and re-connect with a healthy state of the body.
In addition, the daily practice of Reiki can bring focus and relief from occasional pain, anxiety, and stress. People who experience anxiety or pain while learning Reiki self-care will gain strength in the knowledge that they will never be alone and helpless with their pain.
Learning how to take care of yourself through the practice of Reiki can benefit healthy people and those with chronic health conditions, whether it's diabetes, asthma, cancer, animals menstruation, fatigue syndrome, depression or heart disease. They can practice Reiki on their own every day to relieve stress, improve health, and repeat the practice of Reiki as often as they feel it is necessary.
There are some anecdotes that indicate that Reiki has the ability to benefit animals in the same way that Reiki helps humans. People who pass Reiki to their pets are amazed at their pets' enjoyment and cooperation. When you have financial constraints, the benefits of making a one-time investment in learning Reiki to take care of yourself rather than paying for repeat sessions are clear.
When there is a sick person in the family and the patient is no longer able to self-treat, one or more family members can self-study Reiki Level 1 (practice) and treat the patient (and other family members) on their own. other family members) as well as themselves.
2. How can I access Reiki?
You can find qualified, certified Reiki masters. You can find teachers through friends who have participated in Reiki practice. In addition, you can also find classes and gyms where Reiki is taught. It is important to note that Reiki is not a standardized form of practice, so there is no guarantee that anyone using the title "reiki master" is equally trained and experienced. . For this reason, you need information about Reiki instructors, the true “gurus” will always help you understand this information.
Many Reiki masters have websites or brochures describing their training, experience and classes. If you do not find such information, have a short chat to ask some questions to find out information about the class. Ask about the Reiki master's teaching experience and basic class information (schedule, tuition, etc.). Finally, find out the internship opportunities, group practice methods that the class offers. Choose your Reiki teacher carefully, not just someone with a degree, but importantly, a teacher who can help you.
3. What are the levels of Reiki training?
Traditionally, there are three levels of practice. The degrees are closely linked, each of which outlines a unique, specific area of practice. However, the daily self-practice of Reiki remains the foundation at all levels of practice.
3.1. Level 1 The first level is usually taught for 8-12 hours. Learners practice Reiki on their own and share with other students. This class provides the knowledge that learners can practice Reiki on their own every day. Learners are taught hand positions to share Reiki energy with family or friends. Reiki classes for nurses and healthcare professionals often include content related to Reiki's clinical applications. Although at this level, the class is mainly experiential, the teacher will give an overview of the history and development of Reiki. Most importantly, the Reiki teacher will guide the practitioner through the first steps in unlocking and transmitting Reiki energy. The first level works towards four basic goals, for those wishing to practice Reiki for themselves and their families, this is the level needed to get started.
3.2. Level 2 The second level is non-contact healing: the practitioner replaces hand-to-body contact with a mental connection so that healing can take place in the event the contact is inappropriate. (For example, psychotherapists may choose the second level as another aspect of healing to include in therapy sessions.) Second-level techniques can also be used to enhance the effectiveness of hands-on treatment.
3.3. Level 3 The third level is the Reiki master. Traditionally, the Reiki master level is only for those with a good track record who are willing to dedicate their lives to teaching Reiki to everyone. Becoming a Reiki master is not done through a course, but through a lengthy process of instruction with a Reiki master. Only Reiki masters can teach Reiki to others.
Whether you want to practice for yourself or for others, learning Reiki is not an intellectual exercise. Mastery with Reiki is developed through practice, not by taking classes to the next level.
Families can learn how to practice Reiki to promote health as well as fight disease. Practicing Reiki for yourself and your family strengthens bonds and creates healthy living habits in the family, creating a happy life.
