Reiki Can't Be Learned In A Weekend

Reiki can't be learned in a weekend, yet so often, one can easily and readily find teachers who offer the opportunity to learn how to become a Reiki healer via levels one and two all in one weekend.
In this video, I'm diving into the issues that arise by promoting Reiki courses with such approaches and why these issues will only limit your progression with the practice, incorporation, understanding, and living of Usui Reiki Ryoho.
I hope all enjoy this video and that the questions and points within the video will be internalized and considered by teachers and students alike.
Slow down - follow the precepts - internalize the practice. If we approach Reiki from this angle, we will walk towards the practice's roots.

Be well and In Gassho to all

Perfectly stated... It's a life journey not a sprint for profitability.

I completely agree. The first time I was attuned to Reiki in 2003 the teacher did both Reiki levels one and two in one weekend. Being very sensitive to energy and sensitive in general I felt overwhelmed and overloaded. It caused a lot of imbalances. I held off on seeing clients until later. I needed to integrate the energy and work on myself first. I wound up going through the process over again more than once with different teachers who taught in a more authentic way. I took level one again and level two months later. I took the Master and then Reiki Master-Teacher levels separately and with plenty of integration time in between. I repeated the process with a different teacher later. I was very careful with who I allowed into my energy field to give me attunements. When taught the way it was meant to be it’s truly a sacred experience and can change a person forever. Why cheat myself out of the deepest, most authentic practice? I feel Reiki really is a life long journey if we allow it to be so. Thank you for this reminder!

Gosh this was SO helpful. I’m so glad I stumbled upon this. I just did a reiki 1 and 2 within a week and while I know some things. I left feeling like really lost and not ready and it just didn’t sit well with me. Thank you. My intuition was immediately saying slow down, read, focus on yourself and practice. I will continue to do this for rest of my 21 days.

Another great video. Thanks for sharing. Ive always felt a "guilt" I didn't have in person training but hearing stories from those who have, most agree the on line teaching & attunements can be just as beneficial. Certainly more in depth ... I know personally my Reiki journey is evolving every day. And when we doubt, that's letting Ego get in the way also. I love & appreciate how "real " you keep Reiki. Looking forward to hearing more 🙏❤️

Beautifully stated Bruce. I fear so many students of reiki fail to understand that it is ALL inner work. 🙏

Love your common sense and gentle reminder of what Reiki is. 🙏🏻❤️ I was just having a conversation about this today. A friend asked me if I was busy with clients. I replied I learned Reiki to heal “myself “. If on my journey people come to me for healing that’s wonderful but I do it to heal myself first. So yes I’m busy 😁
We need to remember that.

I totally agree. I had a 6 month gap between each of my levels up to Master Teacher. I'm so glad I took my time to learn, integrate, consolidate and practice

So true🙏 Thank you for talking what Reiki actually is 🤍

Thank you so much for this information. I have a few questions as my reiki practitioner is offering reiki 1&2 within a weekend. I have been seeing her monthly for almost a year and have been doing self work. Two months ago I had a kundalini activation awakening that has been extremely positive for me as well as healing. I do feel called to do her coarse and not necessarily to do reiki on others, but more so for my healing and to learn a healing modality that has helped me. Now with this being said the energy that has been radiating through me since kundalini has been strong and I am wondering if this will affect my training in reiki in any way. I do plan to ask her as well, but I love your information and well the more information the better for me.

Great insight, thank you for sharing! One question my friend, would you recommend to learn Reiki on-line ?

I wish I would have seen this video before doing my Reiki 1&2 class in April. I feel i learned nothing, it waa too rushed. My question is did i still get attuned and can now work on it the proper way as you suggest or will i have to go and get attuned again?
