Live attunement
Reiki changed my life. After my own personal awakening, I trained as a Usui Reiki Master and discovered just how powerful this practice is, for healing, for inner peace, and for building a life aligned with your purpose.
I created this course because I believe Reiki should be accessible to everyone, not just those who can afford expensive in-person training. This is a fully structured, professionally taught Reiki Level 1 certification and it costs nothing.

Why 15,000+ students have chosen to learn Reiki with me
Better Sleep
Reiki calms the nervous system and reduces mental chatter, helping students report significantly improved sleep quality within weeks of starting practice.
Stress & Anxiety Relief
One of the most consistent benefits reported by Reiki recipients is a profound sense of calm and reduced anxiety, even after a single session.
Emotional Healing
Reiki works on emotional blockages stored in the body, supporting recovery from grief, trauma, depression and low mood alongside conventional therapy.
Increased Energy
By clearing stagnant energy and restoring flow through the chakras, regular Reiki practice boosts vitality and reduces chronic fatigue.

Reiki promotes deep relaxation which activates the parasympathetic nervous system, helping the body restore and strengthen its natural defences.

FAQs:
What is Reiki?
Reiki is a Japanese word that translates to “universal life force energy”. It is an ancient healing technique used to restore balance and promote wellbeing on the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels. By channeling positive energy, Reiki practitioners can reduce stress, improve sleep, boost immunity, and even encourage relaxation during times of difficult emotions or challenging circumstances.
What are the three Reiki levels?
There are typically three levels of Reiki, with each level building on the skills and knowledge you have learned in the previous level. Here is a summary of what is included in each level.
Reiki Level One:
This level is an introduction to Reiki, where you will learn what the universal life force energy is and how it works. You will be introduced to the reiki principles, and learn about your chakras. In this level you will also get an introduction on how to use reiki for self-healing and healing others and what the various hand positions are. I will also cover how to prepare for a reiki session and the attunement. I have also included some bonus modules on how to use reiki on animals, kids, babies and pregnant women
Reiki Level Two:
In this level you will deepen your Reiki knowledge, learn the rituals and practices of Reiki practitioners. You will learn 3 of the 4 reiki symbols to enhance the healing process. You will also be introduced to distance healing.
Reiki Level Three (Master Level):
This level is the advanced level of Reiki and focuses on master and teacher training. In this level you will learn about the Master Symbol, how to perform attunements and teach Reiki to others.
What is the attunement process?
The attunement process is an initiation ceremony to Reiki. The attunement opens up the student’s energy channels, after which they are able to channel the life force energy. Attunements can take place in person or over distance. While there is some debate whether distance attunements are effective among the more traditional Reiki community, there is historical evidence that one of the great Reiki Masters, Madam Takata herself, performed distance attunements. Especially during the pandemic more and more Reiki masters have started with distance attunements. I perform my attunements over Zoom in person over distance both in a personal and in a group setting.
How does the free Reiki course online work?
The free Reiki course online is hosted on an online learning platform that provides you with access to all the videos, materials and lessons you need to start learning.
As this is an on demand course you can learn Reiki at your own pace and to your own schedule. I am always available over email, IG and via the support functionality on the platform.
How long does the free Reiki course take?
The course is entirely self-paced. Most students complete it within 1–2 weeks, but you have lifetime access so you can take as long as you need. The video modules total approximately 4–5 hours of content.
Will I receive a recognised Reiki certification?
Yes. Upon completing the course and receiving your attunement, you receive a Usui Reiki Level 1 (Shoden) practitioner certificate signed by Sunny as a certified Reiki Master Teacher. You will also receive a Reiki Lineage document tracing the transmission back to Mikao Usui.
How does the online course platform work?
After enrolling, you’ll receive instant access to all course materials on our online learning platform. Videos, PDFs and worksheets are all available on demand. Sunny is available for questions via email and the platform’s support function.
