Students become “initiated” into Reiki by receiving a Placement from a Reiki Master Teacher. During a Placement, the students are given healing symbols that they are intuitively guided to use in sessions, both for self and others. Your job as a Reiki practitioner is to be the conduit for the healing, though true healing is up to the client. Because Reiki is channeled healing, the Reiki practitioner’s energies are not depleted, and they are not at risk for taking on the energy of their client. In Reiki sessions, both the client and practitioner receive healing, and the beautiful thing about Holy Fire Reiki is that this energy decides where the healing needs to go. All practitioners need to do is be open to the Reiki energy and be willing to give it to others. Through Illuminated Healing Arts Reiki courses, students are trained to be well-rounded energy healers. Not only are the Usui/Holy Fire Reiki methods taught - students are also educated on energetic anatomy and other energy healing modalities that perfectly complement Reiki.  Illuminated Healing Arts Reiki courses work with each student on finding their intuitive gifts/abilities and heightening those for use in Reiki and other energy healing modalities. The Reiki activation can start a cleansing process in the practitioner that affects the mind, body, and spirit - so be prepared for personal transformation!

The best part about Reiki- anyone can do it! Trusting in your intuition and truly wanting to help yourself and others is the most important requirement. The placement process is through guided meditation, so we recommend being open to meditation. Students do not need any psychic abilities or “powers”, all they need is to trust in their intuition.
In addition to your Reiki placements, students will receive a manual (written by Aly), Reiki supplies, and a certificate. Aly’s commitment to you is that she will be a lifelong mentor, so please ask any questions, share experiences, and do Reiki trades anytime!

Reiki classes are taught privately in-person or online over Zoom. Our office is located in Thornton, CO for private classes, and for group classes we teach in Frederick, CO. Classes are a combination of lectures, guided meditation, demonstrations, Reiki practice, and breaks. Each class has the same content, however because we teach our students privately, each class is catered to our student based on many factors- basically, we customize each class for every student so they succeed! Students will receive a manual in each class, a certificate after completing levels 2 & 3, and necessary supplies.
Levels 1 & 2 are required, but the Master ART and Reiki Master Teacher levels are optional.

Illuminated Healing Level 1 Reiki Placement teaches students the fundamentals of Reiki, how to practice Reiki, and learn energetic anatomy basics (the chakra system and layers of the aura). Aly works with the student to uncover how they use their intuition to receive Divine Guidance for Reiki healing, as well as strengthening their intuition. This course attunes students to the first Reiki symbol (the Power symbol) and gives students a solid foundation of how to practice Reiki on themselves.
Length: One day and lasts 5-6 hours long.

Illuminated Healing Arts Level 2 Reiki Placement is taught within a week of Level 1 and is required. This course teaches students how to heal others and builds on their energetic anatomy and Reiki knowledge. Students will learn how to give long distance healing treatments and can work with past life healing. This course attunes students to 2 Reiki symbols (The Mental symbol and the Distance symbol). Students will receive their Reiki Practitioner Certificate in this class.
*Licensed Massage Therapists will learn how to give Reiki Massage in this course
Length: 1 day, lasting 5-6 hours long. This class can also be divided into two days if the student wants shorter days (only available in private sessions)

Illuminated Healing Arts Level 3 Master Reiki Placement is optional, and is taught at least 3 weeks after their Level 2 placement. Students learn everything to become a professional Master Reiki practitioner in this class. They will learn how to give continuous Reiki healing, expand their energetic anatomy knowledge, advanced energy healing practices, and learn to use the World Reiki Grid (and receive a grid and crystals to make their own). The connection to Holy Fire Reiki Source energy exponentially increases in this final Reiki course! Students will receive the final 2 Reiki symbols (the Master symbol and Holy Fire symbol) and will receive their Reiki Master certificate.
Length: 1 day, lasting 5-6 hours.
