What to Expect in a Reiki Level 1 Training in Bend, Oregon

If you’ve been feeling drawn toward energy work, curious about how healing through touch could be possible, or simply ready to reconnect with yourself on a deeper level — Reiki Level 1 may be calling you.

This first level of Reiki isn’t about fixing or mastering. It’s about remembering what’s already within you, your innate capacity to channel peace, balance, and light.

What Is Reiki?

Reiki (pronounced ray-kee) is a Japanese energy healing practice that supports harmony in the body, mind, and spirit.

The word comes from two Japanese characters:

• Rei – universal or spiritual wisdom

• Ki  – life force energy

When we practice Reiki, we don’t give away our own energy; we simply become a channel for universal life force to flow through us. This energy moves where it’s needed most, easing tension, clearing stagnation, and inviting deep peace.

Reiki is shared through gentle touch or by hovering the hands above the body. It’s subtle, but profound, often felt as warmth, tingling, or a wave of calm.

About Level 1: The Foundation of Self-Healing

Reiki Level 1 (Shoden) focuses on self-healing and energy awareness. You’ll learn to connect with Reiki through a sacred attunement ceremony and how to use it for your own well-being and to support others.

My training is a heart-centered weekend immersion into energy and presence.

You’ll learn to:

• Understand what Reiki is and how it works

• Explore the Five Reiki Precepts for balanced living

• Offer yourself a full Reiki self-treatment

• Practice hand placements to share Reiki with others

• Sense energy in the body and environment

• Ground and clear your energy before and after sessions

• Receive your first Reiki attunement and certificate of completion

The Attunement Experience

The attunement is a quiet energetic initiation that opens the flow of Reiki through you. Each person’s experience is unique, some feel warmth or tingling, others simply a deep sense of peace. Whatever you feel is perfect. The energy always knows where to go.

After Your Training

You’ll leave feeling empowered to use Reiki in your daily life, for grounding, stress relief, and emotional balance. Many students notice positive shifts in the days that follow: better sleep, calmer mood, and a greater sense of connection.

A gentle 21-day self-practice after the training helps integrate the energy and deepen your intuition.

This training is for you if you want to:

• Explore energy healing and self-discovery

• Support your own health and emotional well-being
