Reiki Practitioner Certification Level 2
Deepen your skills and start practicing professionally
Building on the skills of Reiki Level 1, this weekend is about continued self-healing, growth and empowerment. It is a significant step along your personal healing journey, making Reiki an essential part of your daily routine and deepening your own inner/spiritual development.
Learn a series of new symbols and skills - for your personal use and to practice professionally
The additional techniques and skills this level provides will enable you to work with clients and facilitate their healing journeys.
You will learn the meaning and application of three sacred master symbols, as well as six non-traditional power symbols. New techniques will be demonstrated so that you can apply these symbols not only to energise and heal your own body and emotions, but also send positive energy across space and time, ask for protection, and cleanse spaces from negative energies.
Master Teacher Shadi Kennedy is accredited with and referred by the Australian Reiki Connection

Expand Your Understanding with Reiki Level 2 Training
As a Reiki Level 1 practitioner you will already have experienced shifts in your energy, your perception of the world around you and your ability to have more compassion and gratitude for yourself, others and the Universe. By signing up to our Reiki Level 2 training, you will have the chance to work with Reiki Master Teacher Shadi Kennedy to deepen this understanding and experience new growth in your spiritual awareness.
At Reiki Level 2 you will learn a series of additional Usui Reiki symbols and non-traditional Power Symbols to enable you to progress, both in terms of your daily use of Reiki and your spiritual growth. This will allow you to start working with clients and facilitate their healing journeys.
Move to Reiki Practitioner Level 2
By joining one of the wonderful Reiki 2 immersion weekends held at Krishna Village, the qualification you receive at the end of the course will enable you to apply the energy and techniques you have learned to other people as clients to help with their healing journeys.
Our course will teach you how to send Reiki to someone at a distance, via a technique called absent healing. This method of Reiki is just as effective as treating a client in the same room. To take part in a Reiki II course, you need to have already completed Level 1 training and be able to show us your certificate of completion.
Prepare for your Reiki Level 2 Attunement
To prepare for your Reiki 2 attunement and to clear your energy field, we suggest that you avoid drinking alcohol for up to seven days before you arrive at Krishna Village and limit caffeine and nicotine for at least 24 hours before the start of the course.
We would also suggest that you eliminate or reduce the intake of meat and fish from your diet three days before the course starts. During your time with us here at Krishna Village, you will enjoy three delicious vegetarian meals per day.
If you are taking medication, you can continue to take it. You may also want to reduce the amount of outside stimulation such as television, social media, newspapers and spend some time meditating, walking or sitting in nature and increase your intake of water.
This weekend will include hands on practice for working on another people, lying down on a massage table or seated in a chair, including hand positions for clearing and balancing the chakras and sweeping down the aura.
Working on other people requires a high level of trust and responsibility. We will discuss professional conduct and ethics so you are aware of relevant regulations and Professional Practice Principles when setting up a practice and working on clients.
Please note: To join this Level 2 course, you need to have completed your Reiki Level 1. To be able to participate, you need to provide evidence of your Reiki Level 1 certification and lineage to info@balanceisqi.com before course start.
To see if this experience is for you, read our FAQ for retreat guests and have a look at our Code of Conduct. If you are dealing with any physical or mental health issues, please also check our Are you ready page to make sure this is a suitable course for you.
Meet your facilitator, Shadi Kennedy
Shadi began her spiritual journey over 30 years ago when she first discovered that her thoughts and energy could manifest her reality. It wasn't a formulated strategy, just an inner knowing. It was her curiosity and need to understand that led her on a path of discovery.
Whilst trying to understand this energy concept, she was also forging ahead with the more practical path of University and corporate work. Her endeavours took her to a dynamic role in corporate IT and then as a mother of three boys to running her own company and businesses. Always in search of finding the balance and happiness that so many speak of .. but also being able to work and achieve in the real world. She just needed to understand what this energy was and how she could use it. And being a super logical person, she needed proof. She immersed herself in books, research articles, practices until her path led her to Reiki.
Now as an Energy Body worker, Shadi can see first hand the transformation that takes place for clients during and after their Reiki Healing sessions. The healing goes beyond the physical body and so is widely used alongside other modalities and medical treatments. Physical ailments are sometimes a manifestation of years of emotional trauma and/ or blockages.
As a practitioner and teacher, Shadi holds space and allows Reiki to help clear these so her clients' healing can begin. Her qualifications include:
Tibetan Usui Reiki Lineage: Reiki Level 1, Level 2, Level 3 Master Practitioner and Teacher
Accredited Meditation Facilitator + Crystal Therapy Healing Diploma
She is a member of the Australian Reiki Connection Inc. (ARC), the Reiki Healing Association, and Reiki Australia.

Accommodation options
Krishna Village is located on a beautiful organic farm in the scenic foothills of Mt. Warning, half way between Byron Bay and the Gold Coast. The closest town is Murwillumbah, and the nearest airport Coolangatta (the Gold Coast airport).
Our Retreat Center is spread out across a beautiful natural farm setting, which means that some of our facilities and accommodation require a bit of walking. We offer a range of accommodation options from camping spots to creatively renovated container rooms, private pine cabins set in the hills overlooking the valley and more.
The Krishna Farm
The Krishna Farm, "New Govardhana" serves as an ashram to a community of yogis who aspire to live according to their deepest vows and commitments on their path of service, spiritual contentment and happiness (Bhakti Yoga). Their service and dedication make this location a beautiful place of growth, healing and spiritual awakening. The temple is the beating heart of the community at New Govardhana and we encourage all who visit the property to come along and experience the lifestyle and philosophy reflected by the practice of Krishna consciousness.
