The JCC Reiki Clinic takes place on the first Thursday of each month (excluding holidays).

The following class will deepen your Reiki practice and bring greater nuance to your understanding. It is appropriate for practitioners and students at all levels and from all practice lineages—
INVITING HAPPINESS: Exploring the Reiki Precepts
No in-person class currently scheduled.
Today only
Do not anger
Do not worry
With thankfulness
Work diligently
Be kind to others
– as translated by Hyakuten Inamoto
Mikao Usui, the founder of the Reiki lineage, referred to the Precepts as “the secret of inviting happiness through many blessings, the spiritual medicine for all illness.” included them in daily practice. Too often overlooked today, the Precepts help you create a bridge between how you actually experience life to how you want to experience it.
In this class, you will feel the support of the Reiki Precepts and learn how to access them in daily life. Here’s what the participants said about their experience when Susan Mitchell and I led a one-day retreat on this material:
“You created a safe, nurturing environment for exploration.”
“Just amazingly wonderful and inspiring.”
“Peaceful, nourishing, and stimulating, the kind of Reiki community I long for.”
“The retreat deepened my understanding of the precepts; I had just been touching the surface.”
“I feel empowered to continue contemplating the precepts in daily life.”
“This exploration created a significant deepening in my practice, so much so that friends noticed a difference when we shared treatment.”
I offer the following REIKI CONTINUING EDUCATION CLASSES for Reiki students at any level or lineage to prepare for professional practice and Reiki professionals to enhance their skills. Classes are offered in person in New York City and other locations, and by teleclass/webinar. You can click here to register for any class.

In this class, I offer you what I’ve learned over 20 years of organizing events. Public Reiki events are a service to the public and to the Reiki community. When you organize events, you introduce Reiki to new audiences, create Reiki community, and give Reiki students and practitioners an opportunity to develop their clinical skills. This class gives you what you need to create a successful public Reiki event in which everyone feels supported—staff, clients and YOU.
Pamela Miles organizes 50 Reiki practitioners for our yearly Spa Day for Women with Cancer. The Reiki room is always the hands-down favorite for our Spa Day participants. Many of the women have never heard of Reiki and are surprised at how wonderful they feel receiving Reiki treatment. The person responsible for creating this magic is Pamela Miles. She selects, trains and is present at the Spa Day to supervise the Reiki room. As a result, no matter which practitioners participants go to, they receive the same beautifully sequenced session.
