Reiki 1 Training & Certification
Reiki 1 Training & Certification
Heal more. Love more.
Deepen your innate ability to heal.
Reiki is a powerful healing art that supports you in cultivating balance, presence, and alignment, within yourself, in your relationships, and in the world around you.
Whether you’re just beginning your healing journey or have walked this path for years, Reiki will help you heal more, love more, forgive more, and experience greater harmony in your body, mind, and spirit.
You will receive a traditional Reiki attunement and be guided in how to use this energy in your daily life.
While Level I is rooted in self-healing, you’ll also learn to offer Reiki to loved ones, clients, animals, plants, and the world around you, from a place of overflow, not depletion.
In this training, you will:
Receive the Reiki Level I attunement.
Learn to give Reiki to yourself and others.
Strengthen a foundation of daily energetic hygiene and personal ritual.
Understand the ethics and responsibilities of energyhealing.
Explore the Reiki precepts and how they support a life of peace, compassion, and integrity.
Practice hands-on techniques in a safe, supported, and guided space.
Learn how to offer Reiki to loved ones, animals, plants, and clients.

You have health and wellness goals and want practices that nourish you.
You want to feel more connected to yourself, your body, and others.
You feel called to share healing energy with family, friends, or clients.
You are a sensitive, empathic being looking for support and structure.
You’re a therapist, coach, birthworker, teacher, bodyworker, or space holder curious about how Reiki might integrate with your current work.
