Reiki Level 1

The ability to use Reiki is transferred to the student by the Reiki Master/Teacher through an initiation process thereby making it possible for anyone to learn Reiki.

The initiation opens energy centers called chakras in the crown of the head and the palms. This creates a special link between the recipient and the Reiki source. Because of this unique attunement process, and simple guidelines, Reiki can be easily taught in a short time.

At A Healthier Me and the Westcoast Reiki Centre, Reiki is taught in three degrees followed by a Master/Teacher training program.

First Degree
Reiki history, philosophy & ethics
Reiki initiation
Intuitive Reiki
Balancing the chakras
Self-treatment & seated treatment
How to give a basic Reiki treatment and practice
Reiki meditation & Reiki boost
Reiki with plants, animals & food

Includes a 2-day class, Reiki 1 attunement, practice sessions, manual, certificate and snacks.

Fusing Flower Essences with Reiki

Advanced for Practitioners

 

During this class you will learn how I use flower essences in combination with Reiki during a client session. I will give you several techniques and methods to combine the two. Ways of testing for essences are also taught.

Find out what vibrational flower essences are and how they are used with Reiki to increase energy flow and desired intention. Flower essences are a great accompaniment to Reiki because they keep the energy going and can be taken quickly and at any moment.

 

Flower essences help to keep the energy going with your client and work on emotions that come up after a Reiki session giving them comfort as well as accountability. They are very user friendly for clients and help them continue their healing after they go home.

Australian Bush Flower Certificate Program

This beautiful course is for everyone with an interest in natural healing either for themselves, their family, or professionally.

The ABFE College course was developed by and is fully accredited by Australian Bush Flower Essences and has been taught in naturopathic colleges for over 20 years. However because it contains such valuable knowledge (that anyone can use), it is now being made available to members of the community and practitioners in more informal venues outside major cities.

If you have already attended the weekend and one day workshops, you will find the information in this course new, and from a different perspective.

However, you don't need to know anything about flower essences or natural healing to take this course, or even have an intention of using the essences on anyone other than yourself, your family, pets and friends. We start with the basics and by the end you will be a confident and competent flower essence practitioner.

If you are a professionally qualified practitioner, you will find this information exceptionally useful in your clinical practice, enhancing your existing knowledge base and modality.

 You will learn:

  • The history of the development of Flower Essences
  • How Flower Essences work
  • The Doctrine of Signatures
  • The Healing Power of Nature
  • Human subtle energy anatomy (the chakras and the aura).
  • How thoughts and emotions affect wellbeing and the cutting edge science validating the ancient healing systems of Ayurvedic Medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine.
  • Major emotional issues and corresponding Essences for each theme
  • All 69 Essences in the Australian Bush Flower range,  plus our ready made combinations
  • How to choose a flower essence and formulate a blend - rational and intuitive
  • How to actually prepare an individual Flower Essence, which you then take home, use, and observe its effects
  • Different methods of Bush Essence application
  • Case Histories for discussion in class
  • How to interview, assess and evaluate your clients and to confidently select flower essences, including prioritizing, compliance and follow up interviews
  • Basic techniques for caring conversations with clients

Further, as a journey through the chakras, this course has the potential to be a gentle yet profound healing experience on a personal level. Many people describe it as life changing.

At the conclusion of the course, you will receive a Certificate from Australian Bush Flower Essences, equal to that obtained by naturopathic students who have completed this course in formal Naturopathic Colleges. An additional qualification of "Advanced Practitioner Certificate" is available upon submission of three case histories of suitable quality after course completion.

With this certificate program you will be able to purchase the essences and support products at a discounted price for the duration of the course. There are 2 text books that must be purchased for the course. I will also offer you my continued support after the course.

Energy medicine is at the forefront of creating a whole new world of options and outcomes, not just for practitioners, but for everyone. The Australian Bush Flower Essence College Course explores and teaches this new paradigm of health and wellbeing based on subtle energy systems, creating new opportunities for "healing in the whole person".

Please let me know if you have any questions. If you have not experienced flower essences I am available for appointments at the westcoast reiki centre .

Please see the flyer for more information.
