Comments From Students
I didn't know what to expect when I enrolled in the class, but it was one of the best choices I made for my life! The space itself is full of truly amazing, warm, enveloping energy that immediately put me at ease. The class was a nice mixture of lecture/lesson, discussion and hands-on work.
Overall, I became more aware of what's been always part of me, a big part- and I feel very comfortable I can share it with others. Everyone's love is so precious.
I thoroughly enjoyed everything about the class. Normally, I do not steadily attend classes, but in this case I only missed classes that I was completely unable to attend due to illness or other issues beyond my control. When I was not present, I missed being there. This level of attendance is unusual for me and says a lot about my love of it.
I have begun to use Reiki as a coping mechanism as well as a healing tactic. For example, any pain or congestion I feel is relieved when I do immediate reiki, as well as anxiety, anger, or any other intention I want guidance on. I have focused on incorporating my intentions into my everyday life and living more consciously and I have seen the results already.
I feel that taking this course has helped me in terms of feeling empowered. This helps me tremendously in my personal growth. Thank you.
Everything was very clearly presented, with honesty and integrity; I feel like my understanding and practice of Reiki has grown in depth since Reiki I. Also, I feel like I've grown much through this journey, and our class discussions helped me along, helped open my eyes even further. The hands-on work really helped build my confidence in my practice of Reiki; it was also a great opportunity to bring Reiki to someone else so that my learning experience could benefit more than just myself.
The week-long intensives with symbols helped enormously in a two-pronged way: they increased my own willingness to trust myself and my intuitive understanding of things, and they provided a close connection with the energies the symbols represent. The whole experience with the symbols has also brought to my attention the ways in which I receive information, psychically, physically and so on...it was definitely an invaluable process.
I loved this class! I think it was the best one so far... I learned more about myself in this class than I have in ...well...years of trying on my own. I learned new tools, figured out what I need to work on and how to bring it into my Reiki practice!
-Helaina JohnsonAbout the School:
The Reiki School is a very loving, supporting environment, clean and welcoming. I felt very safe and at ease during class, doing all the Reiki work and so on. Kudos on everything. Keep it going!
This school has been a sanctuary of peace and love and groundedness...and I treasure it.
The School is lovely. It is a clean, warm, safe, inviting space. The Reiki School and Clinic is a perfect space for giving, receiving and learning Reiki. Easy to get to and there is never a problem parking.
I must say: YOU ARE MY KIND OF TEACHER !
Here in Miami, and at my age, 75, I could never set up such a school - but certainly endorse your methods. My early experiences as teacher were to have the class meet over 6 weeks, 2 hours a week, and they loved the slow "unfolding" of learning Reiki that way. I can imagine how much more depth and support you can give them in a three month period. It surely keeps them from floundering and allows them to mature before stepping out alone.
My sister-in-law is having the usual pains and aches of a normal pregnancy. But she tells me that she feels much better after the [Reiki] sessions, and sometimes her pain stops right away!
I really feel that the person is receiving the energy, and people are telling me that they feel good and relaxed after the sessions. I sense how the person is feeling at the moment, if there is physical pain and any problems in the body.
The Subject presentation was excellent. I felt that we started with the basics and then moved onto completing sessions. Each class was broken up into nice segments so that we didn't get mentally tired.
Everything was made extremely clear to me. I really enjoyed the fact that everyone's opinion was heard equally.
I feel very comfortable doing Reiki on myself and on others after having completed this class.
I really enjoyed the Reiki games, the different guided meditations (the one we did the first day of class with energy shooting out different places and the walking happy meditation we did, and giving and receiving sessions. Everything was in a safe environment and I felt comfortable.
Six classes, Six clinics - at first I was having difficulty believing that we needed 12 classes over many weeks for Reiki I when in lots of instances the class is taught in a weekend. I am really happy that I took the time and had the patience to enroll in this class. The learning process that you go through for many weeks certainly has an impact and I value my knowledge more. I also feel that I have a better grasp of the information because I went over it with an instructor more than once.
I had a really great time with Reiki I.
I have noticed that I have increased concentration, an increased energy level, and I am just happier. I have a lot more patience as well. I am slowing changing my life...it's great. I definitely am planning on taking Reiki II.
While seeking the elixir, modern medicine seems to have overlooked the obvious. Reiki has always been here. Simple, effective, low impact, yet so complicated that we don't fully understand how it works, but it does.
Everyone has his own way of making sense of life. I like to think of life as a game. As we grow up, the people around us teach us the rules of the game of life. We don't question what we are taught. ... Reiki changes the way you understand and experience life. Reiki changes the rules.
Reiki Rocks!
I really liked the discussions we had together. I liked having the hands-on work. I liked everything! You guys are awesome teachers. It is inspiring to learn from you because you practice everything you talk about. Thank you for sharing Reiki with us!
I highly recommend the style of the class structure. First and most importantly, it creates a sense of community, while still instructing and covering the theory of Reiki. For me, having the hands-on clinic experience was extremely important. I have learned so much from the clinic experience that a weekend workshop could never provide for me. Just having a safe place to work on clients with your teacher readily available to answer any questions was comforting.
Location, accessibility, and parking works well for me. I particularly love the creative, avant-garde energy of the school. It's quite traditional in structure yet creative, alive, colorful, and untraditional in setting. As a corporate full-time employee, I couldn't ask for a better environment to fill my spirit.
I have concluded that Reiki is the gift of giving.
The structure is wonderful. Having taken a "short" Reiki I course, I found that the structure has made a huge difference. It has allowed me to integrate Reiki more thoroughly into my life and I've paid closer attention to the changes in my life.
I love the community we are building and the class structure has helped me to discover Reiki's role in my life and develop an idea about its future roles.
I liked the lightness and simplicity of the classes. I felt welcome and comfortable from the beginning. The lectures themselves were excellent, especially the children's book version of the history. That was classic. [The] Class structure was almost perfect.
I liked being able to apply our classroom instruction to our lives and getting feedback. I liked the class structure. I don't ever feel like I want to go home after class is over. The school is amazing. The moment you walk in you feel the love. This class, the school, and all of the people involved have helped me in such amazing ways.
