Cord cutting with Reiki

Home >> Special Reiki courses >> Reiki cord cutting

My current biggest passion, spurred on by my brilliant experiences with Reiki Drum, is the uniting of Reiki and traditional Shamanic techniques. Given the importance of the influence of Shinto on Usui Sensei, and that part of the original symbol for Reiki means 'Shaman who brings the rain' (female Shaman, actually!) it shouldn't surpise any of us that Reiki is more and more coming to be thought of as a form of Shamanism. The more I am learning from my Spirit teachers, the more ways I see for these two different ways of working to be united with great effect. This has led to my creating workshops on the Shamanic approach to Reiki.

The first is 'Cord Cutting with Reiki', a new and unique approach to severing energetic ties to people, illnesses or situations which sap us of our energy and do not assist us on our path to self healing. There are some positive connections between us and the world, of course, and these can be left intact while cutting the ties to the negative aspects of our relationships to the world.

As a Shamanic practitioner I have cut cords between people and substances they are addicted to, ex partners they cannot get over, parents and siblings where there are negative behavioural patterns that feel impossible to get out of, long term illnesses, damaging situations...the list of issues that cord cutting can assist with is potentially unlimited.

Cord cutting is a traditional Shamanic technique that has proven its effectiveness over and over again, in indigenous cultures and among modern day Western practitioners. I have now put together an effective way of cutting cords for Reiki practitioners, so that you can start adding this powerful new dimension to your practice right away.

The course is a one day workshop, and it includes:

Reiju empowerment
Explaining energetic cords from a traditional shamanic perspective
See how restrictive and draining negative connections can be
Drum journey to see the cords in your own body
A compassionate, Reiki based approach to severing cords
Exploring detachment - to leave or cut cords?
Explaining this Reiki cord cutting method in detail
Practical cord cutting sessions

The course runs from 9.30am - 5.30pm with a break for lunch, and is accompanied by a workbook with all the information you receive on the day, plus some further ideas to explore in your own time.

Ongoing Support and Advice

Once you've been on your Reiki cord cutting course we want you to know that your teacher will be on hand to deal with any questions or queries that you might have. If you would like detailed feedback on your cord cutting after the course, you have the option of preparing four case studies that your teacher will read and provide comments and helpful suggestions. This is not a requirement but can be very useful for your development.
