Shinpiden Certification, FIVE Days in San Diego, CA

After completing the foundational training and certification of Usui Reiki Ryoho and establishing a strong connection with your body, mind, and emotions, the Shinpiden course (Reiki Master-Teacher Level) takes you on a profound journey of spiritual expansion.

This advanced training goes deeper into the essence of Reiki, guiding you to explore the art of Reiju and perform Reiki attunements. Through Shinpiden, you will not only enhance your healing abilities but also deepen your understanding of the interconnectedness of all beings. By realizing the concept of oneness, you begin to recognize the divine nature that resides within each living thing, fostering compassion, empathy, and a profound sense of unity.

As you step into the Reiki Master-Level training (Shinpiden), you immerse yourself in a transformative experience that goes beyond conventional energy healing practices. The five-consecutive days of in-person instruction and practice provide a nurturing environment for you to hone your skills and expand your spiritual awareness. This intensive training is designed to empower you not only as a Reiki teacher (Shihan) but also as a radiant expression of the light that flows through you. By embracing the teachings of Shinpiden, you open yourself up to a higher level of consciousness and spiritual evolution, embodying more of your True Nature.

One of the key highlights of the Shinpiden training is the inclusion of Energetic Alchemist Advanced Practitioner training and certification. This additional training goes beyond traditional Reiki practices and delves deeper into the realm of energetic alchemy, allowing you to explore new dimensions of healing and transformation. Through this training, you will continue to learn how to work with the subtle energies that underlie the physical world, enabling you to facilitate profound energy work on a holistic level. Whether you are drawn to the mystical aspects of energy work or simply eager to deepen your understanding of Reiki, the Energetic Alchemist Advanced Practitioner training will expand your horizons and enhance your practice.

Upon completing the in-person training, you will be supported with follow-up online sessions that reinforce your learning and provide additional guidance as you continue to integrate the teachings into your daily life. This comprehensive approach ensures that you have the opportunity to fully embody the principles of Reiki and carry them forward with confidence and authenticity. By immersing yourself in the Shinpiden Reiki Retreat Intensive, you are embarking on a profound journey of self-discovery, empowerment, and new levels of enlightenment, guided by the sacred energy of Reiki and the infinite possibilities it holds for personal transformation.

Because of the Reiju instruction, practice, and other exercises, space is limited.

The reason I've changed to only offering Shinpiden to previous students is because then there's no need to back-track or fill in information for students that may not have received the same content and training that's provided in my Shoden and Okuden classes. If we are all working from the same starting point, it allows class to move more smoothly for everyone.


Aren't all Reiki classes the same?

No! I've studied with several teachers and various lineages and no, not only are classes different...so are teachers. This is also part of what inspires me to make sure we all have access to information and training that will best support our working with energy and understanding of the elements within the system of Reiki, with more confidence.

Moment of Vulnerability...

Can we be honest with each other? When I first started practicing Reiki, I had a lot of insecurities...and I felt even less confident when I found myself comparing my understanding and abilities to other practitioners. What I didn't know then, that I know now, is that a lot of the people I was comparing myself to had the SAME doubts and insecurities! The problem was that everyone was pretending to be confident because no one wanted to feel like the only one who wasn't "tapping in".

I couldn't pretend. I was determined to understand and to feel ONE with the practice, the energy...with me. So, I studied and practiced, diligently. I learned from many teachers and I took what resonated, and left the rest. I realized that some of us even limited ourselves by the standard of how far our teachers were willing to go, or not. And sometimes being a student will suck you into taking on the beliefs, chosen boundaries and stories of teachers...

No, no, no!

This is your beautiful journey, your evolution and healing.

So being honest, what would YOU like to explore with more depth? What would you like to clarify or feel more confident about? Let's talk about it...

...and let's crack it all open in class.
