What is Reiki?
Reiki is an energy therapy that works with the body’s own remarkable healing capabilities. It helps to promote and accelerate the natural healing process and restore balance on all levels, physical, mental and emotional.
Reiki is totally safe and complementary to any form of treatment, be it natural or conventional, and can often be used in circumstances where other therapies may be contraindicated.
Reiki can be used by anyone of any age or physical circumstance as the transmission of the Reiki energy is non-draining and not dependent on the health or the belief systems of the practitioner. Humans, animals and plants can all benefit from the use of Reiki.
A Reiki treatment is done through the hands. Simply by placing your hands on yourself or others you activate the flow of energy with no movement or posture. The Reiki energy will be used by the body to help heal, rejuvenate and reinvigorate. Whatever health or wellness issue you suffer from, including physical ailments, disease, stress or anxiety, and any emotional or trauma based issues can often be helped with Reiki in a very gentle and releasing way.

Learning Reiki:
Anyone can learn Reiki and you need no prior qualifications to attend a Reiki Level One class. After the class the Reiki energy is present for life and can be activated through your hands any time you wish to treat yourself or others. Reiki is so easy to use that it is ideal for lay people who are not familiar with natural health and methods of healing as it provides an excellent foundation for exploring other types of modalities. At the Reiki Centre we teach both Usui and Kundalini Reiki.
Usui Reiki:
The original ‘Grandfather’ of Reiki healing as discovered by Dr Mikao Usui in the early 1900s. This system is excellent for beginners as it is totally fail-safe! The Usui system is an excellent system for self-healing and healing loved ones as well as developing your own personal peace. It is a phenomenal stress relief tool as the self-healing sessions promote a state of deep relaxation and meditation (no meditation experience is required to achieve this).
The Reiki energy flows through your hands as if by osmosis; no intention, thought or belief is required to activate the Reiki and no diagnosis or direction is required during the healing process. Healing sessions typically last from 30 to 60 minutes and usually result in states of deep relaxation and calm. Students normally report feeling calmer, less stressed and less anxious within weeks of completing the workshop. Many also report better quality sleep, less pain or headaches and over time much stronger immune systems and less illness.
During the Workshops, understanding the Reiki phenomenon and energy, healing, disease, and our internal energy systems are discussed and explored. The Workshop also has plenty of interactive sessions to practice giving Reiki treatments to get you comfortable with your new found skill. The beginners courses are held over two full days, usually a weekend.
The Reiki Centre recommends the Usui system of Reiki for complete beginners as it is considered the foundational course.
Kundalini Reiki:
This system of Reiki has been developed in the past decade by a Danish healer and meditator, Ole Gabrielson. Classes are run over one day and cover a dizzying array of tools and techniques. An excellent tool for those with little time, or those who are already familiar with healing tools. This system is well suited to those who prefer speedy rather than meditative practices. Kundalini Reiki appears to magnify the speed of growth and can promote rapid change and renewed direction in your life. It still has a deeply healing component and includes some meditation tools.
During the class we learn how to give several varieties of treatments (all 5 minutes in length), including both contact healing and distance healing. The practitioner also becomes actively involved in the healing process with an ability to direct the energy to specific hot spots or blockages, past trauma or relationship issues. The advantage of this system is in the speed of treatments and the speed in which the system can be learnt (up to Masters over a period of several evenings).
Please come along to one of the monthly talks or Reiki Meditations for more information and also a chance to experience Reiki for yourself or book in for one of our wonderful Reiki Healing Sessions.
