Shinpiden Reiki III (Mystery Teachings), taught from the perspective of the Japanese origins of Reiki, is a deep dive into the pool of mystery that lies at the heart of the system of Reiki, which is deeply connected to tributaries of Japanese esoteric spiritual energy traditions. Our emphasis will be on living and being Reiki as an intrinsic part of one's and daily life, as we journey through Reiki’s energy map.
Shinpiden has three main goals:
Deepen our relationship with our Reiki practice, in particular by learning advanced practices and concepts, exploring some of the esoteric and cultural roots of the system, and through extensive practice. This includes learning the Reiju ritual, known as "attunement" in western Reiki.
Deepened understanding of our roles in our community, our goals for how we want to contribute, and the ways Reiki helps to support and shape that as an integrated part of daily life.
As a result of the above, create vision and action intentions for integrating Reiki into our lives moving forward. This can include teaching or practicing Reiki directly, utilizing Reiki within our work in implicit ways, or fundamentally as a self-practice.
Prerequisite: Reiki II certification. NOTE: There are notable differences between practicing Reiki from the Western perspective, vs. its Japanese origins. If you received your Reiki II certification in the Western Reiki tradition, you’ll be given access to our Reiki Transitions self-paced course. This will provide all you need to step into Shinpiden with us.
This class is a pre-requisite for anyone wishing to train as a Reiki teacher. If you are interested in Reiki teacher training, you can find info on that here.
In this training you'll receive:
Certification as a Reiki III Practitioner over 18 hours of class time;
Self-paced Reiki Transitions class, to refresh material from Reiki I & II, and orient you to the Japanese origins of Reiki;
Meditation and energy practices drawn from the esoteric Japanese roots of Reiki;
Introduction to the fourth Reiki symbol and mantra, and their role in connecting to the Mystery;
Training on performing Reiki reiju, or initiations (sometimes known as “attunement'“) on others, and orientation to their purpose in the system of Reiki;
Written manuals;
Phone support throughout the class when needed;
One gift Reiki session by Michaela at HeartScapes Studio in Davis, or virtually over the course of the class.
After training, students receive these on-going opportunities:
Monthly Practitioner Group: Gatherings that support your personal practice, and service opportunities to bring Reiki to the larger community.
Re-immersion: Students are invited to deepen their learning by re-taking a training when space in the class permits. Re-immersions are offered on a donation basis, and donations are added to our scholarship fund.
Treatments: When class size permits, students may attend the treatment portion of a class and give/receive sessions at no charge.
