There are three levels of Reiki training. Here is an outline of a class structure I put to use in my traditional Usui classes. What is taught in a Reiki II Class What is taught in a Reiki III Class

First Degree Class

• Class Preparation: Get to class on time. It is recommended to avoid nicotine and caffeine the day prior to and the day of class. Wear comfortable clothing made of natural fibers (cotton, wool, silk, etc.) Do not wear nylon stockings or any other restrictive type of garments. Bring two cushy pillows. This is a full day class, don't forget to eat breakfast.

• Class Ends At the end of the day you are Reiki Level 1. Your attunement to Reiki energy is permanent. Reiki is a balancing energy......drink lots of extra water for the next few days. You are to be congratulated for having given yourself such a wonderful gift.

Reiki attunements open and expand the Ki-holding capacity or the Hara Line and clear energy blockages. They open a channel for the Reiki energy to flow from practitioner to client. The more a practitioner uses Reiki the clearer and stronger the flow becomes.The attunement process is what makes Reiki stand apart from other types of healing systems. Although others healing arts may use hand positions on the client, only Reiki has the wonderful benefit of the attunement process. For this reason, you cannot learn Reiki through reading about it, it has to be experienced. However, there are some informative books written about Reiki.
