“Radiating an outpouring of unconditional love, to illuminate your journey”
At Cascading Light Reiki, we believe in a balanced approach to energy work—one that honors ancient spiritual traditions while prioritizing trauma-informed care and neuro-inclusivity. Our curriculum goes beyond the basics, challenging students to explore the intersection of energy and ethics. By integrating an understanding of implicit bias into our practice, we ensure that our healing spaces are truly equitable and safe for all.
From the Reiki Reset, foundational Reiki 1 and 2 through to our intensive 6-month Master Mentorship, you will develop the self-awareness and clinical-grade skills necessary to become a deeply conscious, confident practitioner.

Shift from 'survival mode' to a state of restorative peace. The Reiki Reset is a focused, 30–45-minute virtual session designed for anyone seeking immediate relief from the stresses of daily life - no prior Reiki experience required.
This session specifically targets the Vagus nerve, using gentle hand positions and a Reiki blessing to guide your nervous system into a parasympathetic 'rest and digest' state. It is a quick yet profound way to recalibrate your energy, settle your mind, and return to your day with a sense of grounded clarity.
