I know, I know, I keep talking about Reiki.  What the heck is it anyway?  I don't know if you heard the story of how I took my first class, but it's pretty amazing.  I was at the Rock Shop downtown Fargo just looking at all the crystals and beautiful jewelry etc. when I saw  Reiki I Class tonight! on her calendar.  I was mostly attracted to the class because of the amazing feeling and energetic high I felt when I was talking to the professor.  I KNEW there was something amazing going on, and I wanted to be a part of it!  I truly believe my guardian angel was jumping up and down when I signed up.  My life has  been forever changed and I thank God every day!

Go to my Upcoming Events tab above to find out more.  May God and the Ascended Consciousness of the Universe bring to me those who are meant to take this class. Namaste.

1.  If you hurt yourself....ICE IT.  Heat may feel good, but if it's an actual sprain or injury, ICE is your friend!  Just hold ice over area for  5-10 minutes as soon as possible, it will cut down the inflammation.

2.  Stretch before and after a new activity.  Just a few simple stretches can save you the discomfort later!

3.  Drink plenty of water.  If you're thirsty, you are already dehydrated!  You should drink half your weight in ounces (64 ounces is a good compromise :-) but a minimum of 32 ounces twice a day if you're active and out in the sun!

4. Be a SHADE SEEKER.  It's great being active, but it's ok to duck into the shade of a tree every once in awhile.  If you have pets outside, make sure they have access to drinking water and shade.

5.  Keep a tennis ball in your car.  Incase you tweek something keep a tennis ball handy.  Wherever it hurts, place the tennis ball directly over the area and lean into it for 30 seconds or more (or lay on the ground if its a upper or lower back or hip twinge.)

6.  Or just call me and tell me where you hurt!  I deal with a lot of foot, hip, knee, upper and lower back issues in the summer.  Give me a call and lets see if we can decrease your discomfort.  

7.  Have a great summer, ENJOY!  

8.  Put this number in your phone, just in case!  Tracy Massage 701-261-57885

Reiki I class is scheduled from 9-5pm Monday, Feb. 15, 2021.  Please call Tracy at 701-261-5785 to Register. Cost is $250 due before class begins.  Due to Covid-19 class size is a max of 6 students.  You may also sign up for the virtual class for $125, Monday Feb. 15, 2021 9am-1pm.  You will receive the information but will not be certified in Reiki I until you have received your attunement and hands on training in person.  

Here is a brief summary of what you will learn:
*Brief History of Reiki
*Principles of how Reiki works
*Relationship of endocrine glands to Chakras

* Ways to use Reiki energy work on massage clients (for LMT's only)

OTHER THINGS TO KNOW

*Bring a notebook and pen/pencil
*You will receive a binder with all your teachings inside to take home with you
* You will receive a certificate of completion and be qualified to take Reiki II on March 22 (worth 8 CEU's if LMT in ND)

The attunement for Reiki I activates dormant energy centers in your head, heart, and hands allowing you to channel Reiki Energy by touching others. Some have experienced up to a 70% difference! 

There are no prerequisites for Reiki I training, but it is highly recommended that the student receive at least one Reiki treatment before the first attunement.

Reiki can promote health and healing of self and others.  The word healing is used in the sense of regaining harmony and wholeness...balance.  Usui Shiki Ryoho addresses the WHOLE person on the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels and those we cannot identify at the present.

It has been defined as having four aspects: healing practice, personal development, spiritual discipline and mystic order.  It also includes the Nine Elements; Oral tradition, Spiritual Lineage, History, Initiation, Symbols, Treatment, Form of teaching, Monetary exchange, Precepts (awaken the questions inside the student in the process of becoming aware of whole, body and spirit)     

All are welcome, however, if you are a massage therapist, this class has also been approved by the North Dakota Board of Massage for 8 CEU's, $250 for certification or 4 CEU's for $125, if you take the class via ZOOM (4 hr. introduction class which covers the history and basic techniques- but DOES NOT CERIFY YOU IN REIKI I).  When you have completed the full 8 hours, you will receive a certificate of Certification in Reiki I and a binder with your name and all your teachings.

​Please do NOT share these materials with others.  This is a sacred tradition of integrity and reverence to be passed down from Reiki Master (Tracy Gilles) to Student.  If you choose to continue your studies, a Reiki II class will be available March 22nd (Completion of Reiki I is required in order to take Reiki II, cost is $250). 

Reiki is a call to be a healer, whether it is for others or a way to heal yourself.  Listen to your higher self and decide if this class is right for you.  Namaste. 

​Your Future Reiki Master,  Tracy
