A gift from me
As a gift from me, you’ll also receive complimentary entry to an in-person Reiki share (usually £15), giving you a space to continue practising and stay connected with a supportive community.
Core Reiki Level 1 training is ideal for beginners who feel confident learning and integrating Reiki independently after the course.
Immersive Reiki Level 1 training | £495
A supported Reiki experience
This Immersive Reiki Level 1 training includes everything in the Core Reiki Level 1 training, with additional guidance designed to help you feel confident, grounded, and supported as you begin practising Reiki in real life.
Rather than leaving your training and feeling unsure of what comes next, you’ll be gently guided through a more integrated process so Reiki feels clear, natural, and easy to apply.
Includes everything in Core training, plus:
-
1:1 Intensive Reiki healing session (95 minutes)
A deeply supportive session with me, either before your training to help you clear and prepare, or afterwards to support your 21-day integration process -
Post-course integration session
A dedicated space to reconnect, ask questions, and revisit anything you’d like further clarity on after your course -
Additional Reiki Share
An opportunity to continue practising your skills, deepen your experience, and stay connected with a like-minded, supportive community -
Confidence and Reiki Practice Support Guide
Gentle guidance to help you build trust in your practice and begin using Reiki in everyday life
Ideal for those who want extra support, reassurance, and guidance as they begin using Reiki after their training.
Not sure which to choose?
Both options fully certify you in Reiki Level 1. There is no wrong choice - only different levels of support.
If you’d like to learn and integrate your practice independently, Core training may suit you.
If you’d prefer to feel more supported and confident as you begin practising Reiki, Immersion is often the better fit.
Many people find that having additional support after training helps them feel more confident when they begin using Reiki in everyday life and supports them in building a consistent personal practice.
Why not experience a Reiki session first?
If you're still undecided and would like to experience Reiki for yourself before committing to a course, why not book a 1:1 session with me?
You don't need any prior experience to learn Reiki (I had never received Reiki before when I signed up to my first course!) but if you'd like to explore a little more before you sign up, a 1:1 Reiki session with me is a great opportunity to meet your teacher and understand a little more about what Reiki is and what it can do for you.
What you’ll gain from Reiki Level 1
By the end of this Reiki Level 1 course, you’ll leave not only with knowledge, but with a deeply felt experience and practical tools you can begin using straight away.
You may notice:
- The ability to channel Reiki energy for self-healing and to support others
- A deeper sense of calm and relaxation
- Increased intuition and awareness
- Tools to support emotional healing and personal growth
- The confidence to share Reiki with family, friends, and pets
