In this three-day workshop, students will continue their training in the Buddho-Enersence system of healing, as developed by Seiji Takamori. Topics include: Buddho EnerSense Empowerment 2 (BES 2) Class information Students will receive the second Buddho EnerSense empowerment which serves to further activate key energy points and authorizes one to use two mantras. Another symbol will also be introduced. Energy Anatomy Our focus is on understanding the nature of the central channel; the vertical core of our innermost self. We compare the Hindu system of seven chakras with the Buddhist five chakra system. Special emphasis is placed on understanding the subtle elements within us as spheres of light. We truly are beings of light, and through the deep experiences of our own inner radiance, we are able to develop true, unconditional compassion without limits. Meditation and Breathwork Students learn the next two cycles of the Buddho Meditation – a profound practice of breathing through the subtle network of chakras. The ability to direct the flow of prana becomes more refined. Ultimately, the Buddho meditation guides you to awakening to your essential nature, that of all-pervasive, compassionate clear light, thus realizing that YOU ARE REIKI! Cultivating Ki Flow The next level of the Chi Nadi form is taught and practiced. At this level we begin to integrate the meditation methods learned with the flowing movements of the Chi Nadi practice; bringing the mind, the movement of the body, and breath into unification. Students learn additional visualizations that are used to create the ‘Body Mandala.’ Reiki Symbols Students explore the secret meaning of the long distance Reiki symbol through practices using visualization and sound. You will learn another symbol used in the Buddho system of healing, and will receive verbal transmission for the Vajra Guru mantra. History, Philosophy We discuss the symbolism of the Vajra according to Tantric Buddhist view. A brief biography of Padmasambhava and his role in establishing this lineage of practice is told. Students receive teachings on the Vajra Guru mantra, according to the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, including the origins of this mantra and its purpose. Healing Practicum Students learn an extended marma treatment with additional teachings on using pulse-point technique and a treatment of the Vajra Body. The use of the Body Mandala for self healing, treatments, and for long-distance healing is explained. At this final stage of training, students develop a comprehensive treatment protocol, incorporating all the methods learned in the Reiki Shindo program, thus providing a complete Reiki healing plan. The importance of using Reiki as compassionate service is emphasized.

REIKI JIN KEI DO LEVEL 2
JULY 9-10, 2022
Stella and I are happy to announce that we are resuming teaching Reiki Jin Kei Do after a 2.5 year COVID hiatus. Whew – we’ve missed you! Our first class will be Level 2 Reiki Jin Kei Do, scheduled for July 9-10, 2022, in Northern Virginia.
Second Degree Reiki is a much stronger vibrational energy than First Degree. It increases your ability to access reiki energy for yourself and others, better manage and work with emotional issues, and enables you to send reiki energy across time and distance.
In this experiential, interactive course, you will —
• Receive two attunements that raise the vibrational energy of the crown and palm chakras
• Learn and practice the three sacred reiki symbols that enhance the amount of reiki energy available to them, contribute to emotional balance, and facilitate your ability to send reiki to others
• Learn a lying down treatment protocol that deepens your ability to work with others
• Practice a new qi gong that enhances energy flow and quiets the body mind
Tuition for this two-day course is $275 for open enrollment participants. It is discounted to $200.00 for participants who took Level 1 through INOVA’s Life with Cancer program. The cost to repeat this course is $75.00. A $100 pre-registration deposit is required. Class size is limited to 6 participants. A minimum of four students is required for us to hold the class.
Prerequisite: Completion of Level 1 Reiki Jin Kei Do.
COVID precautions: Some of our students are immune-compromised or live in a household with someone who is. We ask that all participants respect the need to be conscious of this. With that said, we will be following whatever guidelines are in place in Virginia at the time of the class. At this point in time, COVID cases are again on the rise in VA and PA. While we will ensure there is social distancing for some of the class activities, there are others that require closer proximity to students and between students. For this reason, we are specifically requesting the following to make this class as safe as possible for all concerned:
- Take a rapid test at home the morning of Day 1. You can get additional free tests at https://special.usps.com/testkits
- Regardless of the results, if you are experiencing cold, allergy, or flu symptoms, please let us know and cancel your participation this time around.
- Wear a face mask during the class. We will take more breaks than usual so that you get a breather outdoors.
If you are interested in enrolling in the class: Let us know and send your pre-registration deposit payable to Stella Koch. Stella’s address is: 1056 Manning Street, Great Falls, VA 22066. And if you have questions prior to registering, please text me (Anne) at 240-675-1660.
Once you have registered, I will provide you more detailed information that includes the location, what to bring, and how to prepare for the class NLT Friday, July 1, 2022.
We are really looking forward to seeing you and teaching this class!
