1-2-1 Level 2 Reiki Attunement

WHAT IS REIKI LEVEL 2 (OKUDEN) ATTUNEMENT?

Reiki Level 2, often referred to as Okuden (meaning “inner teachings”), builds on the foundations established in Level 1 and deepens both your understanding and practical use of Reiki.

At this stage, the focus expands beyond self-treatment into working more confidently with others, while continuing to develop your own awareness and consistency of practice.

DEVELOPING YOUR PRACTICE

Reiki Level 2 is less about learning something completely new and more about refining what you already know.

You will:

• Build confidence in your ability to practise Reiki
• Develop a more consistent and structured approach
• Explore how Reiki fits into everyday life, not just during treatments
• Strengthen your awareness of relaxation, focus, and intention

Some students choose Level 2 for personal development, while others take it as the next step towards offering Reiki professionally.

WHAT WILL YOU LEARN?

During Reiki Level 2 training, you will cover:

• The Reiki symbols and how they are traditionally used within the system developed by Mikao Usui
• How to incorporate symbols into self-treatment and sessions with others
• An introduction to distance Reiki (remote sessions) and how it is practised
• Further exploration of the Reiki Precepts and their practical application
• Expanding your understanding of relaxation, awareness, and balance
• Techniques such as scanning (Byosen) to guide your practice
• Developing good habits around grounding, preparation, and session structure
• Considerations for practising Reiki professionally, including client care and basic setup

You will also gain more hands-on experience, both giving and receiving treatments.

THE ATTUNEMENT

Level 2 includes further attunement as part of the traditional Reiki training process.

As with Level 1, experiences vary. The emphasis is not on dramatic effects, but on continuing your development and strengthening your connection to the practice.

PRACTISING REIKI AT LEVEL 2

After completing Level 2, you can:

• Continue regular self-treatment
• Offer Reiki to friends, family, and others with greater confidence
• Begin practising Reiki professionally, if you choose to do so

Many practitioners see Level 2 as the stage where their practice becomes more consistent and structured 

please note you must have completed usui Reiki Level 1 prior to taking Level 2 attunement.
