A glimpse of the retreat
This retreat is a wonderful all-inclusive option which offers each participant the opportunity to soak in the Reiki energy and just "be" in order to become more in touch with this wonderful energy so that it can flow more freely through you and your life. Gentle yoga and guided meditation sessions, delicious healthy vegetarian meals, nature walks, an herbal bath, and free time to enjoy the natural beauty of this nature conservation area will assist you in your Reiki attunement process. This program is for anyone who wishes to be introduced to Reiki in a calm and beautiful environment. It is possible to gain your first degree (out of three degrees) in a short stay with Tambo Ilusion. You will be able to channel Reiki healing to yourself and to others before the end of this retreat. "When you heal yourself and assist others with their self-healing, you heal the earth. You do make a difference!" A quote by Laurel Steinhice, Channeling the Earth Mother.
Understanding Reiki
Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation, which promotes healing as well. It is a form of hands-on healing used to cleanse, balance, and heal while invigorating the mind, body, and soul. You’ll discover how to balance your chakras with Reiki. For those of you who have never received a Reiki treatment, it is a wonderfully relaxing and nurturing experience. A typical Reiki session typically lasts one hour.
Reiki is not taught in the usual sense; it cannot be learned from a book or self-taught but is transferred by the Reiki master to the student through the attunement or initiation (attune means harmony, and initiate means ceremony) process via a simple ceremony which is repeated at intervals over the course of the retreat.
What to expect
This is not just a Reiki course, this is the start of a very special journey. During the retreat, you will receive four initiations or attunements that literally "attune" you to the higher energy of Reiki to empower yourself as a conduit for channeling life-force energy for both yourself and others. Each Reiki attunement is a relaxing and beneficial experience.
The Reiki system of channeling universal vital energy, which is not unique, is characterized by its simplicity. It is easy to learn, easy to practice and it is easy to transmit. Currently, Reiki is practiced by millions of people around the world for its great benefits. Reiki can be performed in different ways. The receiver of Reiki can lie on a massage table, on a mattress, on the floor or sit in a chair. The receiver remains dressed during a Reiki session.
The energy of life
A Reiki practitioner, by using gentle touch can increase the life force energy that will facilitate healing and relaxation. The practitioner will act as a channel for the healing energy to flow through to the receiver. Although traditional Reiki involves "hands on" healing, if you are uncomfortable with healing touch, energy can effectively be sent into the aura from an appropriate distance.
There is an emphasis on practical experience throughout the retreat, as it is important that you develop your own individual skills and knowledge of Reiki. During the course, you will learn the hand positions for self-healing, as well as for treating others. One of the wonderful things about Reiki is that it starts with taking care of and appreciating yourself.
You will also learn to practice Reiki on plants, animals, the environment, and situations. You will receive two Reiki treatments, one guided auto-treatment, and you will give three Reiki treatments. Alongside Reiki attunements and training you will learn about the chakra system, and more. You will leave this retreat a Reiki enthusiast.
