For a lot of people the ideal learning environment is a classroom.
However, online learning has its own advantages: uncomparable lower fees, learning at your own pace, many more opportunities to exchange your experience with other participants, longer duration of the course enables you to learn more details, you keep learning materials forever etc....
Reiki teachers (or masters) advertise in various media. Once you find a Reiki teacher or practitioner you are interested in it is a good idea to ask them some important questions. This will help you make an informed choice. What training have you had? How long have you been working with Reiki? How do you personally use Reiki? What is your lineage? What qualifications are required to take Reiki Training? What do you cover in your classes? How many hours of class time is included? How much time is instructional, and how much is hands on practice? What are the specific things I will be able to do after taking the training? What are your fees, and will I get a certificate and a manual? Can I take notes and make an audio recording of the class? How many symbols will I learn? Is there a Reiki support group in my area or can you help me establish one? Will you openly support me in being a successful Reiki practitioner or Master? Do you have a positive respectful attitude toward other Reiki practitioners and Masters regardless of lineage or affiliation? Be aware of how you feel about their answers and if they are responding in a loving manner that is supportive and empowering. Listen to your heart and you will be guided to the right teacher or practitioner.
As a person’s vibration goes up, toxins that have been stored in the body will be released into the blood stream to be filtered by the liver and kidneys and removed from the system. When this happens, sometimes a person can get a headache or stomach ache or feel weak. If this happens, it is a good idea to drink more water, eat lighter meals and get more rest. The body is cleansing as part of the healing process so this is a good sign.
No. Reiki is not a magic wand, although sometimes it appears to be. For optimal health and wellbeing you are expected to use your common sense to take care of yourself; e.g. good nutrition, physical activity, enough sleep, lots of laughter, no smoking and drugs, get engaged into inspirational and uplifting activities, be surrounded with people that inspire, motivate and support you etc. Reiki will assist you in living more meaningful and happier life with less effort and more joy.
