Reiki Dharma Masterclass

Over two days, we will immerse ourselves in somatic and energetic practices to release attachment and ignite compassionate action. Combining Buddhist teachings with Reiki principles, matrilineal wisdom with powerful plant medicine, we cultivate these energies with thoughtful care. Weaving a tapestry of ancient principles and techniques to support personal, professional and planetary transformation, we enter the portal of change and walk through the threshold, together.

This Master Class is an invitation into accelerated practice for those who feel called to go deeper.  It is an activation, a unique experience that will happen only once: to enter the liminal spaces where energetic forces meet mindful awareness.  Join with us to cultivate resilience and wisdom in service of all sentient beings. For the brave and the curious – changemakers, seekers, heartcentered and creative rebels who sense the time is now – this is your workshop.

Throughout this two-day Master Class, we will engage in somatic and nervous system training for grounding and protection, Reiki work from the Gakkai Lineage, and a gentle introduction to entheogenic plant medicine and Buddhist traditions.  Rachel will offer teachings on the Heart Sutra and Tibetan Bardo practices – touching the in-between spaces with openness and strength.  These threshold explorations will aim to guide each participant to meet what feels difficult within themselves, while stepping into the collective field of insight and growth. Enter the Shadow and emerge into Light.

This is a space to deepen inner strength, release fear and cultivate wisdom and action that support both our own evolution and the wider web of life.

In honour of this being our first offering, we are delighted to extend a special introductory price of £699 to those who feel called to join us for this weekend of Open Heart Practice and Activation.

Our Intention

We gather in the oldest part of Lisbon to activate deeply heartcentered practices for these times of change. By uniting Reiki, Buddhism, plant medicine and ancestral traditions, we step bravely into the liminal space of in-between, cultivating the strength, clarity and compassionate action needed to become changemakers – personally, professionally and planetarily.
