Usui Attunement Level 1
Usui Attunement Level 1
Prepare for the initiation process by mentally stating your intention for this to be Usui Reiki Level 1 attunement. Draw the Usui Master and Power symbols on the palms of each of your hands, and then draw the Power symbol down the front of your body to open yourself to the energy. Prepare the room in which you are carrying out the ceremony by standing in the center of the room. Draw out, in the air in front of you, a large Power Symbol and imagine it sinking into the wall directly in front of you... Repeat this for all the walls in the room and then do the same for the floor and ceiling. Place the chair you are using for the attunement process in such a position that it is easy to walk around it a straight backed, upright chair is the most suitable. When you are ready to proceed, have the person you are attuning seat themselves comfortably in the chair and talk them through the whole process you are going to carry out Show them how to put their hands together in the prayer position at the heart chakra, and how to move them above their head and back to the heart, when you squeeze their shoulder. Okay, once they are happy about everything move on to the attunement itself The level 1 attunement is given in four stages. The attunements place the sacred symbols in the crown chakra, third eye and palm chakras. This has the effect of raising the vibrations of the energy in the physical body.
STAGE 1
Stand behind the student and place both hands over the top of the students head to gain rapport and tune in. Trace the Usui Master Symbol over the students head, using your dominant hand as a guide. Picture the symbol moving into the crown chakra through the head to the base of the brain. As you follow it on its journey, silently chant the sacred name of the symbol three times. Once each at the crown chakra, the third eye chakra and at the cerebral cortex.
Squeeze the students left shoulder as a signal to raise the hands to the top of the head. Hold the students hands with your non-dominant hand and draw the Power Symbol in the air above them with your free hand. Picture the symbol moving into the hands, through the crown chakra to the base of the brain. As you follow it on its journey, silently chant the sacred name of the symbol three times. Once each at the fingertips, the crown chakra and at the cerebral cortex. Return the students hands to the original position in front of the heart. Move to the front of the student and open the students hands out flat with your non-dominant hand. Trace the Power Symbol in front of the students third eye with your free hand and imagine shooting the symbol into the students third eye using your fire finger (middle finger). Silently chant the sacred name of the symbol three times in time with the shooting motion. Trace the Power Symbol above each of the students palms. Picture the symbol moving into each hand as you silently chant the sacred name three times, whilst using a tapping motion to the palm chakras to drive the symbol into the hands. Replace the students hands together in front of the heart and then using one breath, blow from the students hands, downwards to the solar plexus, then upwards through the hands to the crown chakra, back down through the hands to the solar plexus, and then back to the hands. Move behind the student and place your hands on the students shoulders. Look down through the crown chakra to the student's heart chakra, and make a positive affirmation - [eg. You are now a confident and successful Reiki I healer.] State the affirmation, silently, three times and intend that it be accepted by the students sub-conscious mind. Place your thumbs at the base of the students skull and say silently to your-self, I now seal this process with Divine Love and Wisdom. Picture a door with the Power Symbol on it being closed and locked. Intend that the process is complete and that the student is now connected directly to the Reiki source. Place your hands on the students shoulders and say silently to yourself, We are both blessed by this process. Move to the front of the student, remove the hands from the heart position, and lay them palm-down on the thighs. In the case of group attunements this step is left until all students have been attuned.

As with all attunements a period of settling into the energy may be experienced after the initiation, so advise the person to run the Reiki on a daily basis theyll find it to be most helpful. Ask them to drink plenty of water too as it will assist the process, and also help minimise discomfort if their body feels the need to dispel any toxins.
