Reiki For Teens.
Reiki for Teens is a course specifically designed for teens ages 13-17, with a focus on the Reiki Self-Treatment and meditation to support social-emotional well-being. As in Reiki Level 1, the teacher performs four meditative attunements (also called initiations) to connect students to the first degree of Reiki energy. Teens will also learn to tune in to the major energy centers of the body, sense what emotions they feel in those energy centers and use the Reiki self-treatment to support their physical and emotional well-being.
Reiki for Teens is taught over three or four days. The class is divided into four sections, each from 2 to 3 hours. In each section of the class, teens will receive an attunement (also called an initiation) from the teacher, which increases their access to the Reiki energy. By the fourth and final attunement, the teens will have permanent, life-long access to Reiki, as well as all the knowledge and skills to practice Reiki effectively on themselves. Teens will also learn other household uses for Reiki - such as pets, plants and food - and discuss how dis-ease develops from blocked or negative emotions in the body.
