This school of Classical Japanese Reiki is particularly aligned with Nature and the aura of the heart. In this Certification Course, you will be empowered into Reiki (Level One) and learn how to sense and perceive, and utilize it using specific hands on as well as distant methods to reduce stress and pain, speed healing, increase intuition, manifest goals, and stimulate creativity.
