Reiki Level 1 Training

Enhance (or begin!) your self-healing practice with Reiki Training

New Format!

Reiki Level 1 is often taught in a one or two day intensive training, or as a private study working one on one over time. Caitlyn has found that breaking the Level 1 Training into multiple segments works better for retaining information and building community, as well as fitting people’s busy schedules.

This new format lets you combine the customized pace of a one on one study with the collaborative and budget-friendly elements of a group training.

The content of Reiki Level 1 has been broken up into 5 classes, each lasting 2 hours, plus one hour of private study to dive into how Reiki best integrates into your life and interests. The “Passport” has a space where you can mark off the date that you’ve taken a specific class so you can keep track of which classes you need to finish your certification.

Pricing

All classes cost $50 per session and the individual session costs $90.

Reiki Passport Program

These classes can also be taken as standalone for people who are not looking to finish a Level 1 certification but would like to increase their Reiki knowledge, or for students who would like to re-take.  If the classes you need/want to take are not lining up with your availability, reach out to Caitlyn.

To receive a certification of completion for Reiki Level 1, you must: 

  • complete all 5 classes at least once within a 12 month timeframe

  • have at least one private session with Caitlyn where you will receive 1 of the 4 Reiju (attunements/initiations) and receive individual guidance and support

Reiki FAQs

  • What is Reiki?

    The Japanese technique of Reiki promotes natural healing by emphasizing stress reduction and relaxation.  It is centered on the life force energy that lives within each of us.  We are more likely to suffer illness (physical and emotional) when our life energy is low.  Reiki helps to balance and increase this energy, resulting in relaxation and overall wellbeing.

    The word "Reiki" is a combination of two powerful Japanese words: Rei translates to "spiritual" or "higher power". Ki refers to the life force energy.

  • How does Reiki Work?

    Reiki is a natural form of alternative healing that treats the entire person, body, mind, and spirit. Because it has an holistic approach, you may see improvements in a variety of mental and physical conditions. Especially if your physical concerns are rooted in stress.

    Reiki energy is already present within you, but by clearing stuck energy and increasing the overall flow of energy, I can help you move closer to your wellness goals.

  • Is Reiki a Religion?

    No, Reiki has no religious affiliation.  There are practitioners with a variety of personal practices.  I have worked with clients of many faiths, and of no faith.  I am not doing any magic, or giving you anything that you do not already have within you.  We are simply working to enhance and increase the life force energy already flowing within you.  If you have questions about how my personal beliefs align with yours, please contact me so I can answer any questions you may have.

  • Can anyone become a Reiki Practitioner?

    There are no special gifts required to practice Reiki, beyond a desire to commit yourself to your own healing process.  This source energy is present in every living being.  I am a Level 3 Master Teacher/Practitioner, and if you are interested in studying the system of Reiki, I would love to chat with you and learn how I can help you on your journey.

  • Does a treatment drain the practitioner?

    A lot of clients ask me if I’m exhausted after a session from giving them my energy or from taking on their energy.  Luckily, Reiki doesn’t work like that!  Because the energy is flowing THROUGH me, instead of FROM me, I get to enjoy some of the energetic bliss you feel during a session.  And any energetic releases you have, move through me and straight out into the universe - to wherever it’s meant to be.
