Exploring the Higher Dimensions of Holy Fire® Reiki

William Lee Rand

Usui Sensei intended that the practice of Reiki continue to develop, although when it was first taught in the US, this idea was not explained.  While the practice of Reiki had a difficult beginning, through changes in how it was taught, it was able to survive and eventually prosper.  William will include more details on these ideas and also provide an in-depth explanation of how Reiki works as well as explain the current state of Reiki in the world and the direction it is likely to take in the future.  A 30 minute Reiki Healing Experience will also be presented.

Healing the Root Chakra

Jules Davis

In her presentation, Jules Davis will explore the root chakra as the foundation that connects us to what makes us feel safe in the world. Safety is a core need that helps us all feel connected to our ability to speak, learn, be present for our loved ones, and opening our hearts to others.  Jules will bring awareness to how an imbalance in the root chakra can affect us energetically throughout many parts of our lives and how to empower ourselves to healing those wounds and help guide others.

Healthcare Reiki for a Changing World

Pam Allen-LeBlanc & Tracey Sullivan

We are living in a time of profound transformation—personally, collectively, and within the field of healthcare itself. As allopathic medicine moves toward personalized care, Healthcare Reiki (HCR) emerges as an energetic counterpart, aligning with this shift by offering deeply individualized healing experiences that address the unique needs of each person.

Reiki has always been personalized, yet the energy of Healthcare Reiki seems to hold a new quality—one that is particularly attuned to the release of fear, the expansion of possibility, and the deep convergence of left and right brain function. This convergence fosters whole-brain thinking, where logic and intuition, science and spirituality, structure and flow work in harmony. In doing so, it supports practitioners in accessing deeper levels of problem-solving, adaptability, and transformation—qualities that are essential in today’s rapidly evolving world.

Small Group Sharing with Reiki

Karen Harrison

Join this interactive presentation for a unique experience of connection and healing.

Without interjecting, group members will offer support by beaming Reiki to the speaker, creating a powerful environment of listening and healing. The session will culminate in pairs, where partners will practice chair Reiki, allowing each individual to both give and receive Reiki's healing energy. This immersive experience promises to foster a sense of community, empathy, and profound healing, giving participants not just the opportunity to share and receive support but also to hear inspiring stories of Reiki's impact on others' lives. Discover the power of collective healing and take away a deeper understanding and practice of Reiki in everyday life.
