Reiki Training
Reiki is a Japanese word that represents the universal (“Rei”) lifeforce (“Ki”) that is within all living things. Delivered through a gentle touch or hands hovering 1-2” off the body, everyone can benefit from this non-harming, balancing energy practice.
As a non-invasive healing modality, Reiki promotes wellness, healing, and a sense of returning to wholeness. With experiences that range from subtle to profound, practitioners and recipients experience many benefits including less pain, improved sleep, intuitive guidance, as well as feelings of deep relaxation and self-healing.
Let’s Talk Reiki:
A Note from Kim 💌
Reiki, while a very simple and direct practice, can be a little confusing when you're trying to figure out the learning path. Let's talk it out.
Reiki is a Japanese word that represents the universal (“Rei”) lifeforce (“Ki”) that is within all living things. Delivered through a gentle touch or hands hovering 1-2” off the body, everyone can benefit from this non-harming, balancing energy practice.
Level I: This is the where you begin, and this could be as far as you go. Level I helps you understand energy work and begin a self-practice that supports you personally with things like physical pain, emotional moments or life changes. You'll also learn how to share reiki with others.
Level II: At this level, you learn to use 3 specific symbols that direct, clarify, and deepen your relationship to the energy. One symbol allows you to send reiki through time and space - you're able to send to a love one who's far away, back to yourself during a difficult moment in childhood, into the future for a big upcoming meeting, or to broader concepts like a relationship (past/present/future), a specific country or an idea like motherhood.
Level III: This level begins to explore the idea of mastery. You'll learn the master symbol and start to expand the depth of your reiki practice, for yourself, others or both.
Because each Level includes an attunement (deep energy work that clears the body to receive and share reiki easily), at Level III, we include Intuitive Development training. As you clear the body to share reiki, many students become more aware of their intuition and spiritual gifts. Intuitive Development training gives you the opportunity to learn in community with others and gain a better of understanding of your gut feelings and inner guidance.
**Intuitive Development is not typically part of a reiki training, but I have experienced the need for this personally and have seen it repeated in reiki students over the years. It's an extra step of support built in to help you live a more guided, intuitive life - a life with more ease.
Reiki Master Teacher - This level is for those interested in learning how to attune and teach others the practice of reiki at all levels. Not everyone wants to learn to teach, but many students want to learn the master symbol, which is why we've separated this into two separate trainings. The Reiki Master Teacher group is generally quite small.
There is NO RUSH to complete these trainings. Some students take years in between the levels or never progress. It does NOT mean that the reiki someone shares at a “lower” level is any different - reiki practice builds a relationship between you and the energy that you deepen through your commitment to the practice.
No matter where you are on your Reiki journey, we welcome you to join Reiki Master + Studio Owner Kim Alexandrescu in one of these healing and transformative sessions.
Reiki Master Teacher will be scheduled for summer/fall 2026.

Level I
Level I Training involves 4 separate attunements, each of which clears and prepares the body to easily share this life force energy. Additional teachings will include: Reiki hand positions to practice on oneself and others, the history of Reiki and its guiding principles, and practical advice for sharing the practice with others.
-
Level II
The Level II attunement can deepen your relationship with Reiki energy by introducing you to the practice of using symbols with the energy. You'll learn the sacred symbols and mantras that can amplify the flow of Reiki, send Reiki across distance and time, and address imbalances that may be limiting your physical, mental and spiritual life.
-
Level III
Level III includes attunement to the reiki master symbol, which can enable extraordinary access to the reiki matrix as well as to reiki energy’s ability to heal and transform. Additionally, participants will deepen their relationship to their own intuition, a process that reiki naturally promotes through daily self-practice and learning to trust something often unseen and outside of ourselves.
“Reiki Level I training with Kim Alexandrescu was a deeply transformative experience. The training fostered a supportive and nurturing environment, allowing me to explore my own energy and develop a daily practice of self-care and healing. By the end, I felt equipped to facilitate healing for myself and for others. I highly recommend this training to anyone seeking to deepen their connection to themselves and explore the power of energy healing in a safe and comfortable space with a practitioner who will help guide you home to yourself.”
