I agree that a large part of Reiki is hands on, but much of the self healing is being ignored in the rush to gather students and teach.
My aim with this is to gather those people who would benefit from a focus of regular times for self healing and a few techniques that i've tested and know produce results in the real world.
Level Two is about getting people good at distant healing - with measurable results. i'm very aware that the spiritual / personal development elements are key and these are what produce the changes in peoples health and approach that most reiki students are looking for.
If the results of a reiki session are less stress and feeling good, thats one thing, if the results are a measurable change in health then thats another. ultimately the measurable outcomes are what people are searching for when they sign up to any process which claims health benefits.
I've worked for years doing individual sessions via instant messaging and telephone with people and would like to show people how its possible and the results that can be achieved using those technologies to deliver the connection.
