Training Opportunities
Learning Reiki
When you've experienced the benefits of Reiki treatments, the natural step for many people is to deepen their understanding and spiritual connection by learning for themselves. The courses take just a couple of days and, while simple to learn, the practice of Reiki will last for a lifetime. Proud of her Reiki lineage, Melanie teaches a traditional form called Usui Shiki Ryoho (USR) - "the Usui System of Natural Healing".
Melanie fundraises so that she can offer training Bursaries to NHS nurses (..... "Nurs-aries") and support workers:
Level 1 - £25 bursary
Level 2 - £50 bursary
Please contact Melanie to find out more and to complete a simple application form.
Reiki level 1
This is the First Degree Initiation into the USR system, honouring the spiritual lineage of grand masters Usui, Hayashi, Takata, Furumoto and Reindl. Students will receive four initiations and will become confident in using a sequence of hand positions for self-treatment and for treating others. You'll learn about the history of Reiki and the Reiki principles, and will practise self-treatment and giving treatments to others, with the emphasis on good practice and ethics.
The focus of the course will be the practical integration of Reiki into everyday life, for self-healing, for use with friends, family and children, as well as plants and animals. You will have lots of time to practise with each other and to start to experience the potential of Reiki to become a spiritual practice. If you're already a Level 1 student, you're welcome to come along to review the course (50% discount), specially before attending Level 2 training.
Reiki 1 (£250) is generally taught over a weekend on Saturday and Sunday from 10:00 - 16:00 (approximate end time):
Course dates
- With sincere apologies, my training dates are suspended until the Autumn of 2024. It would be an honour to refer you to a trusted Reiki teacher and colleague.
Traditionally, photos of Reiki Masters are displayed at Reiki classes and events, honouring the spiritual lineage of the ascended Grand Masters: Dr Mikao Usui, Dr Chujiro Hayashi, Hawayo Takata & Phyllis Lei Furumoto and with gratitude for the dedication of Johannes Reindl who succeeded Phyllis Lei Furumoto as Grand Master and current Lineage Bearer in 2019.
Reiki level 2
- With sincere apologies, my training dates are suspended until the Autumn of 2024. It would be an honour to refer you to a trusted Reiki teacher and colleague.
This annual training opportunity is aimed at Level 2 students who are preparing to give Reiki treatments to members of the public, which can mean working from home or in a clinic environment. Since 2010 Melanie has been in professional practice in both clinics and the NHS so it's natural for the emphasis of this workshop to be on best practice, ethics, national occupational standards, record keeping, feeling confident in communication about Reiki and all aspect of ensuring the highest standards as you offer treatments beyond friends and family.
Keeping the practice of Reiki at the centre of everything we learn, the workshop will blend theory, practice and role play and you will receive a helpful resource pack. Limited to small numbers, ongoing mentoring and check-ins can follow the workshop.
- Approx fee £250, depending on the number of students.
The Reiki principles are honoured when learning and practising Reiki.
