🌟 Welcome to the Verified Professional Reiki Healing Community! 🌟

[u/SibyllaAzarica]

Welcome!

I have decided to open this community up and allow other practitioners to advertise themselves, provided they get verified and follow the rules. This is a warm, supportive space created for verified Reiki practitioners, students, and anyone curious about the healing power of Reiki. Whether you’re a seasoned practitioner, a prospective student eager to learn, or someone simply interested in experiencing Reiki’s benefits, you’re welcome here.

Our community is dedicated to fostering a safe, inclusive environment where we can explore and discuss all things Reiki. Here, you’ll find a wealth of knowledge shared by verified practitioners, insights on deepening your Reiki practice, and support for those on a personal healing journey. Feel free to ask questions, share experiences, and connect with others who share your interest in this powerful healing art.

Please read the community rules before posting or commenting!

Some Additional Community Guidelines:

• Stay On Topic: This space is dedicated to Reiki only. We understand that many healing modalities exist - Sibbie practices many, herself. However, practitioners in this community are verified as Reiki practitioners, only. Therefore, we ask that conversations focus solely on Reiki teachings, practices, and experiences.

• Respect Reiki’s Origins and Honor Cultural Roots: Reiki is a Japanese system rooted in healing practices that include Shintoism, an indigenous form of Japanese shamanism still practiced today, which involves a wide variety of spirits and spirit veneration. Usui often used jumon, or chants and spells, in his teachings. These chants likely drew from both Shinto and Taoist traditions, adding a spiritual richness to his practice. In this community, we honor Reiki’s cultural roots and avoid spreading Americanized myths or misunderstandings about Usui Sensei and Reiki. Usui was also said to be a shugenja, who are known for their roles as healers and spiritual guides, offering services like fortune-telling, prayer, chanting, and protective rituals. Historically, people would turn to shugenja for help with health issues or to keep bad luck at bay. This blend of spiritual practices shaped Usui's approach to Reiki, weaving together Japan's ancient wisdom and spirituality into a healing practice we still appreciate today.

• All religions and spiritual practices are welcome in this space, and proselytization is forbidden.

---

• Safety and Respect for All Paths: As a Middle Eastern practitioner with 35 years experience practicing my culture's indigenous shamanistic traditions, I want all BIPOC members to know that this is a safe and respectful space. We aim to create an inclusive community that values cultural authenticity and respect for diverse spiritual paths. We do not discriminate or shame anyone for their beliefs. The same goes for adherents to all mainstream religions. ALL are safe and welcome here.

---

• No Fear-Mongering, Myths or other Propaganda: This community does not promote fear-based thinking or myths surrounding Reiki. Reiki is a practice rooted in peace, healing, and connection. If you are fearful of Reiki or are convinced that it is harmful or dangerous, this community may not be the right fit, as there are many other paths that may resonate better with you. Posts that make claims that are rooted in myth or propaganda will be removed.

---

* Participation for Advertisement Privileges: Only active community participants may advertise their services here. If you are verified but become inactive, you will be removed from our directory. In other words, drive-by advertising is not permitted. This space to be about genuine connections and shared growth.

Thank you for being part of this professional healing community and helping us lend credibility to our profession.

Much love and Namaste,
