KARUNA REIKI

.....means compassionate action...for others, and for ourselves.

It has been said that to gain the full benefit of the Karuna Reiki® energy, the student must be ready. The Karuna Reiki® Master class is the next step for Usui Reiki Masters. It is essential that students have completed the Usui Master training before working with the Karuna Reiki® energy due to its powerful approach. Experience from Reiki Mastership allows better use of the Karuna Reiki® healing tools.

The energy is of a very high frequency and will result in many shifts and changes for those who are attuned to its vibration. It is really intended for those students who want to take their energy training and spiritual development a stage further and the initiations work at a very deep level, allowing the student to work towards deeper personal and planetary healing and enlightenment. Karuna Reiki® is a Sanskrit word and is used in Hinduism and Buddhism. It is translated to mean any action that is taken to diminish the suffering of others, and could also be translated as "Compassionate Action". The Karuna Reiki® system was developed by William Lee Rand at the International Centre for Reiki Training. It evolved out of Usui and Tibetan Reiki from a desire and the knowledge that there is always something greater waiting to be uncovered.

The  Master training course enables the student to become not only a Karuna Reiki® practitioner, able to use the energies for healing, but also a Master, able to teach others. Karuna Reiki® has two practitioner levels and eight symbols, each of which has a different frequency and a different way of helping people's healing process. The Karuna Master level incorporates three more symbols. The healing energies are noticeably stronger and many who have worked with Usui Master energy for years, find the Karuna Reiki® allows them to channel healing results which are more powerful than previously experienced.

Karuna Reiki® is a very compassionate and loving energy. Many who have taken the Karuna Reiki® course have had visions of enlightened beings, those Bodhisattvas or enlightened souls who watch over the earth and have mastered Karuna, being its emissaries. This contact with enlightened beings can be inspirational as well as healing and is an indication of the level of consciousness that Karuna Reiki® is coming from. It opens the student to guiding energies from their own personal belief systems as well as introducing them to other great spiritual masters.

Karuna Reiki® can be extremely effective in healing many issues and bringing about the following:

•Reducing pain

REIKI

....... is an ancient healing art which channels universal life energy through the hands of a practitioner into the body of a receiver.  It is a gentle, non-invasive energy transfer technique whereby the practitioner channels energy (ki, chi, or also called prana) by gentle placing of hands on a fully clothed body in several specific positions on the head, shoulders, stomach, back, and legs.  These positions mirror the pathways that carry Chi to major organs.  Reiki energy may be experienced with differing effects such as increased warmth, coldness, tingling or colours. It has been shown to effectively stimulate the relaxation response with recipients often feeling as if they have had several hours sleep after just one session.


Because Reiki can be used for such a wide variety of different ailments, it is now practised in hospices, hospitals, prisons, GP surgeries, drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers, palliative care, private health centers, nursing homes, HIV/Aids centers and animal rescue centers.

As Reiki is a non invasive therapy it can be used with other healing modalities, both allopathic and complementary. Reiki is something anyone can learn to do. The ability to give Reiki is learned through the original teachings of Mikao Usui, passed on from Master to Student.

After a session many people describe a feeling of peace and well-being.  Reiki is an incredible technique that aids the body in releasing stress and tension by creating deep relaxation.  Because of this, Reiki promotes healing and health.  It gently and effectively opens blocked meridians and chakras, and clears blockages, leaving one feeling relaxed and at peace.  It treats the whole person, restoring balance and harmony in body, mind, and spirit.  It works in harmony with all other medical or therapeutic techniques.  Treatments may vary in length, but will normally last in the region of an hour.

Welcome to Reiki! A bit about me......
I have been practicing Reiki since the early '90s and have had the opportunity to study with wonderfully gifted Reiki Masters.  My first introduction to Reiki was with John Harvey Gray and Lourdes Gray.  John studied under Hawayo Takata and I feel honored to have been able to study the Usui method under their wonderful tutorship.  I had an amazing adventure studying Karuna Reiki with William Rand in Glastonbury, UK with people from all over the world and then studied Crystal Healing with Laurelle Shanti Gaia in Sedona, Arizona. My Reiki study and practice are an integral part of my life and something I am very passionate about.
