Welcome to a Journey of healing and simplicity

Who Is This For?

This course is open to:

• Complete beginners who feel called to Reiki
• Those previously trained in Reiki who wish to reconnect with its traditional Japanese roots
• Anyone seeking a practical grounded, heart centred approach to energy healing
• This is the ideal course to help you reconnect with your Reiki practice if you are feeling a bit lost. You still have your Reiki; learning Jikiden Reiki will enhance your Reiki practice and treatments.

Who else may benefit from learning Shoden Jikiden Reiki?

Are you someone who supports or cares for others either in professional practice ( health and wellbeing therapists, yoga teachers, education and health professionals)? Traditional Japanese Reiki will add an extra dimension to your treatments and offers you a simple practice to support you in your work to support others.

Do you have a caring role in your family ? This is a wonderful set of techniques for you to learn as it can help you feel centred and balanced and you can provide support to those you care for to feel more relaxed. As a grandmother, sister and friend I often support my children, grandchildren and extended family with Reiki for everyday ailments and worries.

If your heart feels the call, you’re warmly welcomed!

How is the course organised?

• Shoden is taught over two days together usually over a weekend, I can also offer an option on separate days if work or family commitments are a barrier to beginning your Reiki journey.
• At the end of your Jikiden Reiki® Shoden course, you will receive an official Jikiden Reiki® English course certificate. You will also receive a personalised (your name handwritten in Japanese) Japanese traditional block print certificate, as used in the early Japanese Reiki courses)

What will I notice after the course?

• You will grow as a person, Reiki being the development of mind and body. You will have the ability to create a more relaxed state, reducing your stress levels.
• You can develop your connection to Reiki with a regular self practice. You may find you are naturally drawn to this as Reiki is a gentle invitation towards a more heart centred and self compassionate approach to yourself.
• You will be able to help your mental, emotional and physical health and well-being.
• You will have tools to practically support the well-being of your family and friends. This is a beautiful aspect of Reiki. Sharing Reiki with family and friends is transformational. This practice is folk Reiki, perhaps the most important, for me Reiki underpins my family life and has helped in many situations.
• You will be able to access this powerful natural Reiki energy for life, helping you feel more peace in your life, whenever you need it, wherever you are.

Okuden

The Deeper Journey

✨ One-day — 9:30 AM to 5:30 PM

✨ Certified by the Jikiden Reiki® Institute, Japan

Step into the deeper flow of Reiki with the Okuden (deeper level) training — a continuation of connection to Reiki from your Shoden journey. In this course you’ll receive two more traditional Reiju, which will enable you to feel your increasing natural sensitivity to Reiki energy expanding your ability to work with it and gain deeper insight into your own practice.

✦ What You’ll Experience:

• Two additional Reiju to deepen your energetic capacity and intuitive sensitivity.
• Enkaku Chiryo — Distance Reiki: Learn how to send Reiki across time and space, offering healing where hands cannot reach. Whether supporting a loved one far away or responding to life’s unexpected moments, this is a beautiful tool for connection and care.
• Jumon: A key vibrational component that supports distance healing, anchoring intention into resonance.
• Second Shirushi (symbol) and its use in Sei Heki Chiryo, the psychological treatment that brings support for emotional balance, habit release, and transformation of patterns.
• Kotodama: The sacred sounds and words that carry healing energy, used within psychological treatment to align mind, body, and spirit.
• Sei Heki Chiryo: A gentle, traditional Japanese technique for addressing emotional, mental, and behavioral challenges — ideal for supporting both yourself and others with issues such as fears, limiting thoughts, emotional distress, or trauma.

You’ll also deepen your understanding of Japanese spiritual principles and mindset, which sit at the heart of how Reiki is practiced and shared.

 Who is this for?

This course is open to those who have completed a Jikiden Reiki Shoden training with an accredited Jikiden Reiki teacher. Okuden gives you powerful, refined tools for healing and support.

Most students choose to take both Shoden and Okuden separately although three day combined option is a more traditional approach. However, there are aspects of the teaching that relate to the history and culture of the time that are essential to this lineage and you will enjoy more learning in a less pressured additional one day course. This also allows for adequate discussion and practice times within the teaching days.

My personal preference is to teach Shoden and Okuden separately. This allows you to become more settled in your own personal Reiki practice before deepening your practice. You will be a confident Jikiden Reiki Practitioner.

I am offering Okuden as part of a 3 day course in January if there is sufficient need.
