1-2-1 Level 1 Reiki Attunement

REIKI LEVEL 1 (SHODEN) – 1–2–1 ATTUNEMENT

Reiki Level 1, often referred to as Shoden (the first teachings), is your introduction to the practice of Reiki. This one-to-one attunement focuses on self-treatment, personal development, and understanding the core principles of Reiki.

It is designed to give you a practical, grounded foundation that you can use in everyday life.

WHAT WILL YOU LEARN?

During your Level 1 training, you will be guided through both the theory and practical application of Reiki, including:

• What Reiki is and how to explain it clearly and simply
• The origins of Reiki and the teachings of Mikao Usui
• The Reiki Precepts and their role in daily life
• How Reiki is practised as a complementary therapy for relaxation and wellbeing
• The concept of the body’s energy system (including chakras and general awareness, not medical diagnosis)
• How to carry out self-treatment using traditional hand positions
• How to safely offer Reiki to friends and family
• Techniques for grounding, relaxation, and maintaining balance
• Developing awareness through simple sensing and scanning exercises

You will also give and receive a full Reiki treatment as part of your training.

THE ATTUNEMENT

A key part of Level 1 is the Reiki attunement process. This is a traditional element of Reiki training, intended to mark the beginning of your personal practice.

Experiences vary. Some people feel relaxed or reflective, others notice very little at the time. The focus is not on dramatic effects, but on beginning a consistent, personal practice.

WHAT YOU WILL RECEIVE

At the end of your training, you will leave with:

• A comprehensive Reiki Level 1 manual
• Your Reiki Level 1 certificate
• The ability to practise Reiki on yourself and others in a non-professional capacity

BENEFITS OF REIKI LEVEL 1 PRACTICE

With regular self-practice, many people report:

• Feeling calmer and more relaxed
• Improved ability to manage stress
• Better sleep and overall sense of wellbeing
• Increased self-awareness and emotional balance

Reiki is a simple practice. Its value comes from consistency rather than intensity.

WHO IS THIS FOR?

Reiki Level 1 is suitable for anyone interested in:

• Personal wellbeing and self-care
• Learning a structured relaxation practice
• Developing greater awareness of stress and balance

No prior experience is needed
