Master Reiki Training with Diane Ferguson
with Diane Roll Ferguson at URU Yoga - Gulf Breeze
Saturday January 29 2022 9AM-1PM, 4:30-5:30PM via Zoom
Investment: $200
Deposit of $50 is required by Dec. 20th to reserve your space.
The emphasis of this Master Level training will be the introduction to the Reiki Master symbol that will intensify the other Reiki symbols. This course will include a Reiki Master Attunement, techniques for hand placement, distance healing, energizing spaces, and creating a clearer connection with life force energy.
Reiki Master Training certification is required to teach Reiki to others. Reiki I and Reiki II certification is a prerequisite for this course.
The Reiki attunement is what makes Reiki unique to other forms of healing touch and energy work. This ceremony, called Reiju (Ray-joo) in Japanese, is performed by the Reiki Master and opens and expands the main energy channels of the student's body, allowing universal energy, also known as Qi/Chi/Ki, to flow more freely and deeply.
Because of this opening process, the attunement also does what Reiki is meant to do — clear blockages. As a result, this can create significant energy changes within the individual and many will undergo an intense period of self-growth. Often, innate intuition and other gifts are more easily accessed.
Diane Ferguson is an Usui Ryoho Reiki Level III Master Teacher who began her study of Reiki in 2014 and has been working with others in this healing modality since 2015. Diane believes that the power of Reiki is limitless and can be applied to nearly every facet of your life. Diane is also a yoga instructor, Certified Health Coach, retreat facilitator, and ordained Minister.
