Reiki is a form of healing that openly invites people from all walks of life. Not just to enjoy the therapeutic benefits of this great system but also to learn and pass on this gift of life and love to others. Undergoing Reiki training is like walking an extremely spiritual path made of Light.

This again can change from one institute to the next and from Mater to the other. In the Usui system, there are three Levels or Degrees. In the first level, the student receives up to four attunements and is now able to channelise Reiki energy for themselves and s/he can use this for healing themselves or others. In the second level only one attunement is given and the student is taught the three of the four sacred symbols of Reiki, now the flow of energy becomes even more stronger. The third level or the Master’s level is an extremely difficult training that an initiate has to go through to achieve the status of Master. After receiving a Master attunement the initiate can teach Reiki to others and perform initiations for level 1.
