Is your Reiki training up to date?

Wow! We got a flurry of responses to our announcement last week about our new Reiki Training Update class coming next month. Although we've been trying to correct the record here at every opportunity for nearly three years now, there are a lot of Reiki practitioners out there who still hadn't heard that new information coming out of Japan in the past decade contradicts some of what they were taught. That confirms the need for this training, especially for those who studied Reiki more than a few years ago. 

Has it been more than a few years since your Reiki training?

Did your teacher tell you Reiki founder Mikao Usui was a Christian minister, university president and medical doctor?

Were you taught that Reiki was an ancient Tibetan Buddhist practice that Usui "rediscovered" while studying sutras in Sanskrit? Or that Reiki wasn't practiced in Japan after 1940?

Or, for whatever reason, has your personal Reiki practice become something you used to do?

If you answered yes to any of those questions, it may be time to update your Reiki training with this new refresher course from The Reiki Dojo and The Reiki Digest, open to all who have completed Level 2 or above in any lineage.

It's not your original Reiki teacher's fault if what you learned back then turns out not to be the case -- a lot of new information about Reiki, and about Usui, has come out of Japan in recent years. But some of that turns out to be misinformation as well. So what's a Reiki practitioner to do?

You may not have time to keep up with all the news and research about Reiki, but we'll be glad to share the highlights of what we've learned from our ongoing research to bring you up to date. And we'll work together on some ways to get your Reiki practice going again.

Continuing education and training updates are a normal part of most respected healing practices. We believe it's time Reiki practitioners had the opportunity to keep their training current as well.

In this class, you'll learn:

* The documented history of Reiki

* The truth about the most common Reiki myths

* Where to find credible information

* How to keep yourself informed on further developments

* Highlights of the latest Reiki medical research

* Traditional Reiki meditation techniques

* How to get the most out of your personal practice

. . . and much more.

Each participant will also receive the energetic blessing of reiju, as traditionally practiced in Japan.

This course will take your practice, and your understanding of Reiki, to a new level, and you'll receive a certificate of completion to confirm that your training is up to date. The course is an update only.

And if you're a Level 2 practitioner thinking of advancing to the next level, or a Reiki Master looking to retrain in another lineage, or considering other advanced Reiki training, we can share the benefit of our training in multiple lineages to help you find the advanced training program that's best for you.

All students who complete the course will become eligible to attend the private advanced meditation group at The Reiki Dojo in New York.
