What is Certified Reiki Level 1?

Certified Reiki Level 1 is your introduction to the world of Reiki healing – a gentle but powerful practice that helps you tap into energy work for self-care and emotional balance. Across this course, you’ll explore Reiki’s history and philosophy, while getting hands-on experience with the symbols and learning the hand positions for self-healing. You’ll also receive an attunement, a sacred process that connects you to Reiki energy, opening the door to your own healing journey. This is the first step towards becoming a Reiki practitioner, whether you’re looking to support your own well-being or eventually work with others.

Learn the Foundations of Reiki

Dive into the rich history and spiritual philosophy behind Reiki, understanding how this ancient healing practice works. You’ll get to grips with the core principles, the energy system, and the symbols that underpin Reiki treatments. This grounding knowledge will give you confidence as you start working with energy – helping you feel empowered, not overwhelmed. By the end, you’ll know exactly how Reiki can support your own well-being and growth.

Experience Your First Reiki Attunement

The attunement process is a powerful, life-changing moment that connects you to the flow of Reiki energy. It’s a gentle yet profound initiation, clearing energetic blockages and opening you up to this new way of healing. Many people describe it as a shift – a sense of feeling more aligned, calm, and connected to themselves. This attunement is what allows you to begin self-healing and supporting others on their journey.

Develop Self-Healing Skills

You’ll learn the practical hand positions and techniques to give yourself daily Reiki treatments, supporting your physical, emotional, and mental well-being. These self-healing practices help reduce stress, balance your energy, and create a sense of calm in your day-to-day life. It’s a toolkit you can return to whenever life feels heavy, giving you the power to care for yourself deeply. Plus, the 21-day cleanse after attunement helps you build lasting habits that ground Reiki into your routine.
