The System of Reiki is a beautiful spiritual practice that equips practitioners with the tools to achieve deep inner awareness. As a wonderful consequence, it also empowers us to guide others on their journeys. 

ALVECHURCH REIKI
USUI REIKI MASTER TEACHER
SHINPIDEN COURSE

Taking place over two days (for Reiki Master) or four days (Reiki Master Teacher) this Usui Reiki Shinpiden Course is designed to immerse students in highly personalised learning and provide them with the tools to find deeper understanding and expansive awareness. Together we will explore elements of theory relating to the practice and its philosophies, and a number of advanced techniques. The aim of our learning together is to begin to gain a deeper insight into Usui Reiki Ryoho and Usui Shiki Ryoho.

To become a "Master" is to master oneself through right actions and thoughts. With practice and dedication, living by the Reiki precepts, this mastery evolves from a state of doing to a state of being. However, the beautiful realisation is that we can never truly be "Masters". It seems we are all perpetual students healing the lived experience every day.
