Usui Reiki

Usui Reiki is named for Mikao Usui, the founder of the Usui System of Natural Healing, known as Usui Shiki Ryoho in Japanese. This is the "official" name of what we call Reiki in the West. This system is the first healing system that is the foundation of all the other branches of Reiki that have been developed from it over the past 25 years.

The Japanese term "rei" translates to "universal" and the term "ki" translates to "life force or energy". So Reiki is essentially the "universal life force" that permeates all living things and exists everywhere. Reiki connects us with the Divine. Reiki can be used to heal a person's body, mind, and spirit, including the chakra system, the cells of the physical body, and the layers of the aura. Reiki can be used to heal body, mind, and spirit, including the chakra system, the cells of the physical body, and the layers of the aura for people and animals. Reiki treats the "cause" of a person's or animal's difficulty, rather than the symptom.

Learn to connect and share the Reiki energy for yourself and beloved animals.

Kathy teaches in the traditional Western style called Usui Shiki Ryoho while adding technqiues from the Eastern style called Usui Reiki Ryoho to give students extra tools for working with and learning to sense the Reiki energy.

Classes have four attunements for Level I, two attunements for Level II, and one attunement for Level III. Attunements connect the student to the energy. All classes allow additional time to practice so that you leave with experience and knowing how to use what you have learned. Kathy encourages students to attend the monthly Reiki Practitioner Shares. Kathy encourages students interested in teaching to return as class assistants to show them what it is like to develop and teach a Reiki class.

Reiki is very easily offered to and accepted by animals. Because many people loves their animals and wish to help them feel better, Kathy has added some additional training in her Usui Reiki I and II classes to help owners share the Reiki energy with their beloved animals. Students begin their training with Usui Reiki I.
