Can Reiki attunements be performed distantly?
Yes, and distance attunements and healings are just as effective as those performed in person.
Reiki Rays has performed hundreds of distance attunements for students all
around the world, and we do so everyday successfully.
Usui Reiki provides a symbol in Level 2 that allows for performing Reiki, including attunements, distantly.
While there is great benefit in working with a local Master, receiving a Reiki attunement or healing in the comfort of home may
be preferred by the recipient, as you can relax in your own sacred space, free of distractions, and prepare for your experience in your own
unique way.
Yes. Reiki Rays Institute received full
accreditation from the International Natural Healers Association.
We also obtained accreditation from the AADP back in July, 2003. We also obtained accreditation under the ACHH in 2004, but as of May
2007, Dawn (Rothwell) Grey, founder of Reiki Rays, joined their administration as
the Executive Director, and as such decided to not advertise our accreditation with ACHH as to maintain integrity
and neutrality. Please note that these accreditations are not affiliated with
the US Dept of Education, which is a totally voluntary process for private
institutes in our category.
There are numerous options upon completion.
Many use their newly found knowledge to supplement other holistic fields such as massage, chiropractic, or nursing.
Others bring their training to salons and day spas. Several have opened holistic stores and new age centers of their own, whereas
others decide to give lectures, live workshops, or write. Many offer their services in their community on a donation basis
in hospitals and free clinics. There are numerous options to use your newly
found spiritual knowledge, but our main goal has always been to assist others in
achieving understanding and personal growth to better their life and the
community rather than operating as a vocational facility.

Since
we have a world wide enrollment and instructors located throughout the US, we do
not offer our courses in local workshops or environments. However if you are in
the Lawrence, KS area, we may be able to schedule an individual or small group
for our Usui Reiki program. At this time, we only have limited
availability on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, subject to availability. Tuition for
local Usui instruction is $250 per person, or $200 per person for small groups
up to 6 per private class. Contact Dawn for further details at
reikirays@yahoo.com .

An attunement is the procedure used to pass hidden knowledge of a system or way of like from
teacher to student. This procedure is often done in solitude and silence, and if performed distantly is not done while on the phone or in front of the computer.
Officially, the attunement process is designed to empower the recipient to be able to perform the service or system from that time on.
Nothing is required of the student other than scheduling an appointment and
relaxing using our suggested techniques for the duration of the procedure.
It depends on the course. Our experience has
shown us that the typical student takes 1 to 2 months to complete most
attunement and energy related courses, with holistic courses such as
aromatherapy and reflexology often taking a bit longer to fully master and
absorb the materials. Certification programs, which consist of 5 courses,
often take 6 months, depending on the amount of time the student wishes to
dedicate to his or her studies. However there is no time limit, so you can take
as long as you need and still receive our assistance at any time.
Reiki Rays recognizes many holistic and spiritual healing schools and teachers, and we do our best
to honor your previous experiences. We also understand that many holistic and
spiritual arts are often learned at home, in church, or learned
independently, and we do our best to accept your self-taught skills whenever
possible/We gladly exempt up to 2 courses for any of our certification programs at no cost to you, and will exempt any course
prerequisites if you studied that subject elsewhere. We do not however, issue school certificates for classes not studied from Reiki Rays.
If we are in doubt of your ability, we may ask you to pass a test or submit
a project to demonstrate your skill level. Reiki Rays does not actually
offer credits or credit hours for their courses, as this is typically the
practice of a vocational school or four year college. We do not want to be
mistaken for such a facility.

Reiki Rays uses the US
Postal Service for its packages, using first class or priority mail depending on
its destination. We package our orders for delivery once verification of payment
has been secured. Orders and enrollments are processed daily, and our typical
mail pick up days are Tuesdays and Thursdays, but we do
our best to get our enrollments processed and out the door as quickly as
possible.
Please allow 1-2 weeks for
the processing and printing of course completion certificates. These are mailed
in a rigid package to help deter damage to the documents.
In the case of inclement
weather, national holidays, or other events that prevent postal pick up
on those days, we will resume our schedule on the next business day. We do our
best to inform you of this breaks with an automated message.
Online and paper checks
mailed to us take longer to verify, and
delivery may be held until verification of funds is obtained.
Please contact us before preparing to send us a check or money order so we can
have you make it payable to your individual instructor and inform you of the
correct total and shipping charges.
Most deliveries will arrive within 1 week for domestic enrollments, and up to 6 weeks overseas, depending on country of origin and customs policies.
We cannot be responsible
for goods seized by customs, so we suggest you contact your country's post
office about their list of restricted goods before enrolling in our herbology
and aromatherapy courses especially.

Unlike traditional four year colleges that have
many requirements, Reiki Rays, as a spiritual educator,
chooses to have as few limits as possible. We expect that our students are legal age and are willing to expand their horizons.
Other than being at least 18 years of age and being fluent enough in the English
language to be able to read and communicate with your instructor, we do not discriminate against any student for any reason. Enrollment is your choice, and no one
is turned away. Almost all of our courses, unless they indicate a prerequisite,
such as Animal Communication Part 2 or some of our modern Reiki/energy classes
may require previous work with us or another qualified instructor. When in
doubt, contact us for details.

Reiki Rays Institute
issues individual course completion certificates as well as certification in
programs in various holistic and spiritual practices, but we do not issue
diplomas or degrees. Our mission at Reiki Rays was to offer holistic and
spiritual information as a means to empower the general public and make it accessible to all with as few time limits and requirements as
possible.
