Level 1 Reiki

Reiki is taught at 3 levels or 4 levels including the Master level. The attunement of each level strengthens one's ability to control and direct Ki. These attunements actually form the essence of Reiki.

In level 1 Reiki, you learn basic information such as how to feel and direct energy, the hand positions you will use when directing energy, chakras, hara line and the characteristics of the energy body.

The person who receives the level 1 attunement is now a Reiki practitioner. Talents that he was not aware of before emerge. "Attunement does not actually give anything new to the person; it organizes and reveals the abilities that already exist. It is like turning on the lamp switch in an electrically installed house; when the healer puts his hands with the intention of healing, it turns on the light."

With Level 1 alignment, the healing process of the body begins at all levels.

In the months following the attunement, his physical health gradually improves. In Reiki 1 healing practices, the person usually treats himself. "The Reiki 1 healer may also treat someone else physically next to them. This type of treatment is called direct healing; the healer places their hands directly on themselves or on someone else."

It is very important that you give yourself Reiki for at least 10 minutes for 21 days after receiving a Reiki attunement. It is very important to support this positive transformation, which you initiated with attunement, with Reiki sessions for yourself in order to increase healing exponentially.

You will experience new things during these 21 days. You will understand how Reiki energy feels and how it is directed. To give an example from myself, it took me 9 days to feel and distinguish between what is energy and what is not. Of course, this develops faster in some people and later in others. All this is very normal. I didn't feel anything while doing Reiki for the first 3 days. At one point I even questioned what I was doing. But I kept doing it.

Then, on the 4th day, I gradually realized that some of the sensations I perceived in my body were only while doing Reiki. These feelings gradually developed, and on the 9th day, I became aware of how it felt and what sensations were in my body while actively channeling Reiki energy with my hands.

In addition to all this, you will experience a psychological adaptation process. Some people may feel fear or resistance when doing Reiki for the first few days. Over time you will notice it disappearing. As a person who used to be very afraid of sleeping alone at home, my fear is completely gone after Reiki.

Or when you do Reiki for 10 days, you will perceive how peaceful and good it feels, as if your soul has been massaged. These awarenesses that you will experience will make your Reiki adventure unique.
