Reiki may be defined as the divine, universal life force energy present in all living things. The practice of Reiki (called Reiki Ryoho) involves the gentle transfer of this healing energy from the practitioner to the recipient. Reiki supports the body’s natural healing processes and can help restore physical, emotional, and spiritual balance and well-being.
Komyo ReikiDo is a traditional Japanese system of Reiki founded in 1998 by Hyakuten Inamoto, a Buddhist monk of the Jodo Shu (Pure Land) sect. This training follows the original teachings of Mikao Usui—considered the founder of Reiki—and emphasizes healing not only the body, but the mind and spirit. Its teachings focus on self-healing, gratitude, compassion, and living in alignment with the Reiki precepts as a path toward greater peace and awakening. Considered the “keep it simple” method, Komyo ReikiDo strips away many Western adaptations to focus on simplicity, healing, and spiritual development.
Susan began studying Reiki in 2017 with Jodi Patton, who received her 5th Degree Shihan certification under Hyakuten Inamoto. Susan completed her 4th Degree, Shinpiden (Master Teacher), in 2019 and has been offering Level 1 and Level 2 trainings since 2021.
She believes that small group settings are vital for fostering deeper connection and creating a supportive, safe, and nurturing environment.
