What is Reiki?
Reiki is a simple, natural, and safe method of healing and self-improvement that everyone can use.
Reiki is based on the principle that an unseen ‘life force energy’ flows through each of us, and is what keeps us alive.
The Usui Reiki system was ‘remembered’ and systemized in Japan by Dr. Mikao Usui & Chujiro Hayashi. This "‘Laying of hands” healing methods have been with humanity for thousands of years - and forgotten. Through Usui’s dedication to the re-discovery of a universal healing method accessible to all, Dr. Usui received this information from the Universe in the late 1800s.
When one's "life force energy" or Qi is low, one is more likely to get sick or feel stressed. But, if it is high, one is more capable of feeling joyous and experience optimal health. Reiki has been effective in helping an array of illnesses and maladies. It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery. Because of the reasons above, being certified in using Reiki is tremendously beneficial for medical and therapeutic professionals, yoga and movement teachers, parents, and/or anyone whose work is to care for others.

Why study with reiki godmothers
We aim to decolonize energy healing practice, in all of the ways by:
Teaching culturally relevant historical analysis
Investigating the spiritual tradition of Japan to understand Usui Reiki
Sharing how we can be in the practice of decolonization when working in the field of energy healing and spirituality
Focus on the need for practitioner development, instead of relying only on the process of attunement
Offer an equity-focused teaching style, creating a safer container for deeper healing & learning
In this certification course taught by Aki Hirata Baker & Manu Del Prete, you will learn not only the official written version of the history of reiki but also look at the historical context and analytical lens to examine that which is often not seen. In a world where we are asked to be more integral to reach our authentic self, we aim to equip our students with information that is as decolonized as possible to make deeper healing possible for all.
For this certification to be truly decolonized, we collaborate to understand the true nature of energy and our capacity to perceive that reality. You will be offered a new way to see reality from a more expanded space instead of the binary model we have been taught for a long time, using both the mythological, western & Indigenous scientific language.
In addition to receiving instruction and attunement from two experienced RMT, the Course also includes an original Reiki manual and 6 months of email support by the instructors if needed. Students are also encouraged to learn and grow with their cohort through their own community-building effort.

“loved the way the material was presented, laughter, joy, decolonized information, safe space to ask questions and show up as ourselves (ok to lay down, not forced to sit up straight). i liked that there was group co-creation and ample breaks. i loved the balance of spirituality with grounded knowledge, and that 5d isn’t better than 3d. i liked the shared documents. Aki and Manu really seemed to enjoy themselves and what they were teaching/sharing and that energy flowed through. i also loved that it was taught from a place of empowerment and not fear.”

EARTH EVOLUTION REIKI
**This class is for anyone who has been attuned to Reiki 2 or above, IET intermediate or above, or 13th Octave LaHochi. Please see our training schedule to join these certification courses.
Humanity is experiencing a major shift right now; are you ready to answer the call to join the group of healing practitioners who will assist in the energetic shift towards harmony and peace?
Manu & Aki were given a new Reiki symbol with a specific mission: this new symbol is given to humanity as part of the tools for people to cope and work with the energy of the earth’s ascension. This information was given to humanity from the counsel of Ascended Reiki Masters; they have revealed that the practice of Reiki is ancient, older than anyone could record. The information revealed to Master Usui was a partial remembrance of what humanity once practiced, and there are many more Reiki symbols available for humanity in the future when our mind, body, and spirit will be ready.
