What Is A Reiki Attunement

Through the attunement process, the Reiki Master will facilitate the connection to the universal life force energy. This will allow you to use Reiki at its full potential.

Back in the day of Chujiro Hayashi and Takata, things were not as segmented as they are today.

Reiki level 1 was taught in four main parts with four attunements.
The second level had 2 main attunements.
And the third one also had 2 attunements.

There are many Reiki schools out there, each with its unique approach. You may receive multiple attunements for each degree or just one for 2 or even 3 Reiki levels. It all depends on the Reiki Master/Teacher.

Personally, I’ve experienced both. And I can confirm that the attunement works each time, regardless of how you do it. This is because your teacher is merely a vessel through which the universal energy flows.

The attunements and their energy are passed on through a sequence of techniques that open the main channels and energy centers to the universal source of life force energy.

During the attunement, you connect to a higher vibration level, and that’s why it’s best to progress one level at a time. It’s possible to feel dizzy, yawn, or even feel fatigued. Some people start crying, while others feel nauseated. Rarely do these symptoms manifest severely, but they are present in mild forms in most cases.

It’s essential to be as open and relaxed as possible because that allows the energy to flow through you more easily. Once the attunement is complete, you are permanently connected to this higher energy level and can start using it immediately.
