Recently I’ve been asked about the Reiki attunement process and in particular about any special requirements. The question was about avoiding alcohol, cigarettes and eating vegetarian food before the attunement.

First let’s talk about the Reiki attunement for a moment. By definition the Reiki attunement is a process performed by the Reiki Teacher in order to activate the flow of Reiki energy through the middle of the student palms.

It is a complex technique that involves a good breathing control on the part of the teacher, visualization and the drawing of different Reiki symbols and the insertion of these symbols into the student energy field.

As you can see the state of health of your energy field can allow for an easy attunement or it can impede the attunement process. For example if a Reiki student has different negative energies in his aura (energy field) that have created energy blockages, then during the attunement when the teacher is trying to activate certain energy meridians this blockages may not allow the meridians to be fully activated.

This is why ALL THE SERIOUS REIKI SCHOOLS will repeat the attunement process for each level at least once after ~ 3 weeks from when the attunement was done. During those 3 weeks before the second (repeat) attunement the student is encouraged to practice self treatment.This way they can improve the state of their energy field.

Since the Reiki attunement is probably the most important part of the Reiki course, I’ve decided to create a short list with suggestions that will help the student to be better prepared for the Reiki attunement:

1. Avoid alcohol for at least a week
2. If possible avoid smoking for at least 1 week to allow the energy meridians of your lungs to improve
3. Regarding the food you eat, try not to eat anything heavy the evening before the class. We are what we eat most people say and our energies will definitely reflect that. My Reiki teacher who is a person with exceptional clairvoyance abilities once told me that if a person will become vegetarian than in ~ 7 years the quality of their energy will improve so much that naturally they will start to manifest healing abilities (using their own energies = bio-energy type of healing). You do not have to become a vegetarian to practice Reiki. Having a healthy diet will keep you healthy.
4. Have a good night sleep (at least 8 hours) before the Reiki class
