Preparation For Your Practical First Degree Reiki Training Course


Prepare For Your First Degree Reiki Attunements:

To prepare for your second degree reiki attunements it is important to bring your body and mind into optimal health and harmony. Minimum 3 days prior (ideally 7 days prior)

  • No alcohol, meat or fish (or recreational drugs)

  • Reduce caffeine, sugar and smoking

  • Disconnect from media completely

  • Disconnect from social media completely

  • Disconnect from toxic relationships/negativity

  • Spend time in nature

  • Step away from any anger, hatred, fears and worries that burden you

  • Sit in meditation/contemplation for at least 10 minutes twice daily – you may wish to also write in a journal

  • Drink plenty of water and eat lots of fruits and vegetables

  •  Enjoy gentle exercise daily such as yoga or walking

  • Enjoy lots of rest

  • Give yourself plenty of time before and after each day of the course to integrate everything that has been shared and experienced

It is important that you do not drink any caffeine prior to the reiki attunements. The Reiki attunement will naturally detoxify the physical body and mind and can create sensations similar to those with a reiki treatment.


First Degree Reiki Training Pre-Course Homework:

To ensure you are mentally prepared for your practical course here is your pre-course homework. Please note, time has been allocated during our online theory day for you to complete this homework.

  • Re-read your manual

  • Practice grounding, clearing and protecting your energy

  • Write your answers to the following questions:

  1. How will you explain reiki healing to a new client?

  2. How will you prepare yourself to give a reiki healing treatment (physically, emotionally, mentally & energetically)?

  3. What is your procedure prior to offering reiki?

  4. What is your procedure for safely closing a reiki treatment?

  5. What post healing information will you give to a client after their reiki ?

  6. What are the contraindications for offering reiki? When are the time we shouldn’t give reiki?

  • Please bring these answers with you to the practical course

Please note, this is not a test! All the answers for these questions are in your manual. These questions are simply an opportunity for you to revise and prepare yourself for giving reiki treatments to yourself and others.
