A beautiful introduction to energy healing, self-connection, and intuitive development. This training is an invitation to slow down, turn inward, and begin building a deeper relationship with your own energy and capacity to heal. Whether you are arriving through curiosity, a desire for personal healing, or a quiet inner calling you can’t ignore. Level 1 offers a grounded and nurturing foundation for working with Reiki in everyday life. You do not need to have any previous experience. Only an open mind, a willing heart, and a readiness to receive
Reiki Level 1, or Shoden, is the first step on the Reiki path.
This training is for you IF
you feel drawn to Reiki and want to explore it in a grounded, supportive way
you are longing to deepen your self-care and reconnect with yourself
you want to understand energy more intuitively and practically
you are curious about healing practices that feel gentle, spiritual, and embodied
you want to learn in person, with space for guidance, practice, and reflection
you feel ready to begin a new chapter of healing, awareness, and self-trust
What Reiki Level 1 opens up
Level 1 Reiki is not about becoming perfect or having all the answers. It is about remembering.
Remembering how to listen to yourself.
Remembering how to slow down.
Remembering that healing can be gentle.
Remembering that your body, energy, and intuition hold deep wisdom.
This first initiation opens the door to working with Reiki for self-healing and for offering Reiki to others in a simple, foundational way. It can support you in feeling more balanced, more connected, and more resourced in your everyday life.
For many, this is the beginning of a profound inner journey — one that continues to unfold long after the training itself.

A sacred initiation into Reiki
In Reiki, an attunement is an energetic initiation that helps open and align you to the Reiki energy in a deeper way. It is often experienced as gentle, subtle, powerful, emotional, peaceful — or all of the above.
Every experience is unique.
For many students, this moment becomes a meaningful marker on their path: a soft yet profound opening into greater connection, clarity, and trust.
You do not need to know exactly what to expect. You simply need to arrive willing to receive.
Your Level 1 attunement is a powerful part of this training.
I came to Reiki during a time that asked me to slow down, turn inward, and care for myself more deeply. It became a gentle yet powerful path back to myself, helping me reconnect with my inner wisdom, restore balance, and move forward in a more aligned, nourishing way.
Reiki also opened me to a beautiful community of like-minded women, which became a meaningful part of my healing journey. Now I share this work as a practitioner and teacher, holding space for others to soften, heal, and come home to themselves.
Hi, I'm Kirsteen
about me
Meet Bramble:
Our Reiki pup!
You'll likely be greeted by my enthusiastic and vocal Labrador puppy, Bramble— often found curled up nearby during sessions or under the Reiki table as in this pic.
Why learn in this space
My approach to teaching Reiki is rooted in gentleness, embodiment, and creating a space where you can truly exhale. This is not about pressure, performance, or needing to “get it right.” It is about learning in a way that feels accessible, meaningful, and aligned.
When you join this training, you can expect:
A welcoming and intimate in-person environment
space to ask questions and learn at your own pace
guided practice and hands-on support
a heart-led, grounded approach to spiritual work
connection with like-minded women on a similar path
a nourishing experience that supports both learning and healing
This is more than a training. It is an experience

"She provided the perfect balance of guidance, instruction and hands on practical exercises. Kirsteen has the ability to explain the concepts clearly, I loved hearing her insight and wisdom drawn from her own journey, it really brought the learning to life. I left the course with a clear action plan for how to continue the practice and a beautiful manual that I can refer to, containing a wealth of information, techniques and further reading. I’m already looking forward to Okuden with Kirsteen and couldn’t recommend her highly enough."
"Completing the reiki 1 Shoden course with Kirsteen was the most wonderful experience"

Reiki is a sacred relationship, and this path requires a full "yes." I don't offer refunds, but I'm fully committed to your transformation — if life happens, you can move your booking to any future date.
What happens if I can no longer attend, or need to reschedule?
Yes! My Labrador puppy, Bramble lives here and is often around during sessions. She will apsolutly greet you with a noise but is friendly and would love to have her ears scratched once she knows who you are. Do let me know in advance if you have allergies or would prefer a dog-free space, so I can plan accordingly.
