Learning Reiki Usui

What are the benefits of the attunements?

Learning Reiki enables the energetic treatment of oneself and others, whereby the most important step is not learning the technique and application possibilities, but the initiation into the Reiki energy. This is carried out in all courses.

What are the Reiki attunements?

These are sacred rituals passed on by Reiki Master Teachers to their students who wish to learn to channel this healing light. The powerful attunements heighten awareness of universal life energy, clear the energy field and help us remember our true nature and connection to source. Through these energy transmissions, we can rediscover the innate healing abilities that we have always had within us but may not have been aware of, and make them accessible to us in the future.

The 1st Reiki degree is about receiving a gentle but effective energetic cleansing, opening the subtle body and helping students to become aware of the divine healing light. This initiation is done several times in the first course to give the body and aura time to accept the frequency of Reiki and get used to this high vibration of love and light. The initiation in the second degree strengthens the Reiki flow through the body and also activates the sacred symbols that are learned in the corresponding course. In the Master Teacher degree, the energy channel is finally opened to its maximum capacity, which increases the ability to channel Reiki many times over. In addition, it is then possible to learn how to perform initiations.

What are the benefits of Reiki attunements?

The reactivation of Reiki energy and the gentle strengthening of its flow through the body and energy system leads to an increase in our own vibrational frequency. This makes it easier for us to step out of difficult moods such as sadness, anger and fear and to vibrate in positive feelings such as love, joy and gratitude. This enables us to be more understanding and loving towards ourselves and others. Balancing the energy system also leads to our heart opening up and we feel a better connection to our higher self, be it through a more perceptible inner voice, intuition or gut feeling. This allows us to come into harmony with ourselves, heal our inner processes, live more consciously, feel what is good for us and do what is really important to us.

What does a Reiki attunement feel like?

The student sits on a chair while the teacher performs a ritual with hand positions, breathing, symbols and intention. The energy flow can be felt through warmth, coolness, tingling or visual sensations. Reiki attunements are perceived as beautiful and often deeply touching. Energy and emotions can be released through tears or laughter. As physical sensations, emotional experiences and states of consciousness can vary greatly from person to person, the process should be approached with an open mind, free from expectations, judgments, comparisons, worries and doubts. This makes it easier to be present, open your heart and perceive the energy.

As a beginner, how can I prepare for the attunements?

Reiki attunements can be powerful experiences for body, mind and soul as they initiate energetic detoxification. This highly energetic process can be supported by drinking plenty of fluids, eating healthy and easily digestible food without meat and dairy products, moderate exercise, spending time in nature and being in stillness with yourself. Caffeine and alcohol should be avoided and getting enough sleep is particularly important during this time, as sleep helps us to integrate and process the changes in our mental, emotional and energetic bodies.

It is possible that the Reiki attunements trigger memories of what needs healing. This can bring up subconscious patterns, traumas, habits, addictions and feelings. Especially in the first 48 hours after the attunement you often feel a little more sensitive, as the system is still recalibrating during this time. However, this is no reason to worry, as the spiritual growth process involves becoming aware of your own “construction sites” so that you can work on them. If these processes are very intense, it is worth consulting the teacher, as energy work, mental techniques, movement and breathing exercises, as well as aromatherapy and crystals can support the recalibration of the system and stabilize it if necessary.

What is recommended after the first attunements?

Reiki can be consciously channeled from the first initiation. It is worth practicing this and practicing Reiki every day for at least 21 days during and after the 1st degree course, even if it is only for 10 minutes, because this helps you to adjust to the new vibration and practice.
