The Reiki Intensive Retreat offers theoretical understandings and practical steps for you to become a better space holder for transformation. Participants will learn 4 courses including: Usui Reiki Levels 1 & 2, Spiritual Alignment for Healers, and Earth Evolution Reiki. Return home with a new way to see reality from a more expanded space—using the mythological, western, and Indigenous scientific languages—instead of the binary model we have been taught for so many years.
Twin Attunement by the Reiki Godmothers of MINKA
You will have a unique opportunity to learn from two experienced teachers, who have worked together for many years bringing various aspects of Reiki to life. Aki and Manu developed the Twin Attuning method during the course of working together and discovering their spiritual twin connection, with many lifetimes together. Intertwining the energy of the two during the attunement creates a deep and powerful shift of energy in participants.
Please bring:
A notebook or journal with writing utensils
Items to add to our collective altar (you will take these items back home with you)
Anything you need to feel comfortable and safe in a new environment for learning
Usui Reiki Levels 1 & 2
Gain a basic understanding of the Usui Reiki system, receive Reiki attunements, learn three Usui Reiki symbols—the power symbol, the mental-emotional symbol, and the distance symbol—and understand how to use them for powerful and precise healing sessions. Understand how to create a safer healing space and ways you can begin a practice without perpetuating harm. Reiki certification is awarded after the completion of a hands-on practice session, and submission of two case studies: one in-person session and one long distance.
Spiritual Alignment For Healers
Designed by Reiki Godmothers, Aki Hirata Quetzalyolotzin and Manu Del Prete, this training is a way for all energy healing and spirituality practitioners to decolonize their practice for better efficacy and to reduce harm. An effective and meaningful energy and spiritual healing practice is less about our skills and techniques and more about our ability for space holding. Learn how to undo the hidden mindset and belief systems that hinder us from becoming the best possible vessel to offer safe and clear healing space.
Earth Evolution Reiki Training
Learn the origin of how the three new symbols (Dairoku, Jigen, and Kokoro) that came to the Reiki Godmothers, and how these symbols have changed the way we integrate intense energetic shifts. Aki and Manu will explain how the five energetic centers work with the existing seven chakras to complete the new 12 chakra system, that humanity will start activating and utilize in the new era. Other topics include earth ascension, its relationship to the three symbols, the true purpose of living this time, and integrity within our hearts.
