Susan Smith Thompson

We all have innate healing abilities. Reiki, a hands-on healing method, helps us to tap into that inner wisdom using the healing energy of the universe. Rei is a Japanese term that means universal and spirit. Ki (like chi or qi) is the life force that flows through all of us. Reiki is generally translated as universal life force spirit, or the spirit of the universe.

To learn Reiki is to be able to use this healing energy to clear and heal yourself and others of physical, emotional, and spiritual blocks that can cause dis-ease and dis-harmony in our lives. Reiki promotes deep relaxation, which in turn, allows your body to begin self-healing. It can help balance the side effects of medical treatments and medicines. Reiki works in conjunction with your medical care and is not a substitute for your medical doctor.

In Reiki 1, you’ll learn:

• How to treat yourself and others
• The basic hand positions
• The Reiki power symbol
• About the chakras and chakra balancing
• How to apply Reiki in your everyday life

You’ll also receive:

• The Level 1 Reiki Attunement
• Certificate of qualification as a Reiki 1 Practitioner
• 80-page manual to take home

There will be plenty of practice time so you will leave fully confident of your new skills.

Cost: Love offering. Minimum suggested donation of $5 is requested but not required. Consider more if you receive an attunement. What is a love offering you ask? Good question. Simply put, you decide what to put into the kitty. No one sees. It’s from your heart to mine. The money is used towards furthering my teaching of Reiki and helping people find peace in their lives: office rent, photocopying manuals, binders, washing sheets, etc.

Meet your Reiki Guides Workshop

People have been asking angels, ascended masters, and other beings for guidance since the dawn of time. Throwing of the bones and runes or working with a tarot deck are just two examples. Working with Reiki Guides is not part of Master Usui’s orginal Reiki System of Natural Healing but a natural blending of lightworker energy healing techniques.

In Meet Your Reiki Guides, you’ll:

• Learn about Reiki Guides, who they are, what they mean to us, how they help us, and why
• How to access their knowledge
• How to understand what they tell us
• Learn how to use a pendulum to communicate with your Reiki Guide
• Experience two meditations:
  Grounding meditation
  Meet your Reiki Guide meditation
