Happy Students

I love the videos!

Kristine, South Korea

I think this class was a wonderful way to immerse in studying Reiki. It's a great way to receive attunements, especially for students like me who are limited with options due to geographical and cultural location. Elaine, thank you for offering this course, it has truly enriched my life!

Very good and clear

Saman, Vietnam

I really felt that this was an excellent experience. I am glad that I followed this program and start feeling the differences

I really enjoyed the class :)

Durga, Singapore

It means a lot that you were always there to answer any questions that I've had. I am also grateful for the continued support after the classes are over. It is one thing to have a teacher and another thing to have a mentor and you are definitely a mentor! Your responses were always enthusiastic and it made me feel like no questions is too small to ask.

I really enjoyed the guided meditations.

Warrick, USA

The whole Reiki experience has been incredible. I have noticed improvements in calmness, peacefulness and overall awareness of everything.

FAQ

  • How do I get the Attunements?

    Once you register, Elaine will be in touch via email to schedule the attunement times. You can begin on the course material right away and you will notice your Reiki gets stronger as the attunements are performed.

  • What if I have any questions?

    Elaine is always available via email for any questions that arise as you go through the course, or anytime afterwards as you begin to practice your tools.

  • Is there a time scale I need to complete the course?

    Once you register you have lifetime access to the course. You can take your time to complete the homework to receive your certificate, but also revisit the course anytime in the future to refresh. Any updates or additions Elaine makes in future will also be made available to you.

  • Is this a Certified Reiki course?

    Yes, Elaine will issue you a Reiki 1 Certificate on completion of the coursework and homework. It is important to do your research though, some Reiki associations do not recognise online courses, so if this is important to you then a face to face class may be a better choice.

  • Is there any ongoing support?

    Absolutely! Elaine runs a monthly online Reiki gathering, an online Community membership, and frequently posts free resources on her YouTube channel and Blog. You will also receive a regular newsletter.
