Usui / Tanran Reiki Training
In Person Only
All lineages of Reiki start with the founder, Mikao Usui, and Tanran Reiki is no exception. A lineage is a succession of teachers who passed on their learning to another person who in turn taught someone else. Some lineages have stayed close to the training system which Chujiro Hayashi created.
Hayashi was one of Usui’s students. He systematized the more experimental and informal approach which Usui had used. Some lineages have changed the teaching approach to accommodate a growth in understanding.
The Tanran system, formed by William Bagley, is one approach which has continued to evolve. It may be the only Reiki lineage which has one symbol for each of the seven chakras, though other lineages have also been inspired to introduce new symbols as we evolve as a planet and come to new growth needs.
All the Reiki Iineages are good to the degree they allow people to really turn on to the living feeling of the energy and to the degree they promote genuine love in the world.
All Reiki systems or lineages offer benefits to the channel and the receiver, quantifying the benefits is not something for us. We simply stay open to what the Reiki energy wants to do, how it wants to heal at any given moment. Generally Reiki can be seen to offer many of the same benefits as meditation, it promotes peace of mind, relaxation, and a sense of well being in most recipients and channels.
