Reiki (ray-kee) translates from Japanese as Sacred Energy of the Universe. 'Reiki Ryoho', is the Japanese hands-on Healing Art/Method, originating in 1922 with USUI Mikao Sensei, a Jodo-shu (Pure Land Sect) a lay Buddhist.

The practice of Reiki promotes relaxation, relief of tension, improved comfort, increased calm and self-healing. No matter what level you aspire to, reiki practice begins with 'self' and the focus of this weekend training is on 'Self-Reiki for Self-Care.' The more we take care of ourselves, the more we have to offer to others. 

Komyo Reiki is a 'Keep it Simple' Japanese Reiki System based on the Japanese aesthetic, 'Less is More.' Reiju and standardized teaching materials come from the Founder of Komyo ReikiDo™ INAMOTO Hyakuten Sensei, a Buddhist monk from Kyoto Japan, 3rd in line from the Founder of Usui Reiki Ryoho, USUI Mikao Sensei.
