Imara Reiki

01. Introduction

Welcome to my new reiki course, on a new system, a famous system, similar to what we have already
seen, the Imara Reiki. If you are already my student, I’m honored as always because you are still trusting
me, welcome back, and if you are a new student, and you are seeing my courses for the first time, I’m
happy to meet you, I’m happy to guide you through this system. I want to thank you, and please let me
guide you in this course.

02. What is Imara Reiki

Imara reiki is a reiki on a higher level compared to others, it is the next energetic level after reiki usui.
Imara means “more”, referring to the energy of this reiki, which is higher than the other energies. This
doesn’t mean that this reiki is better than other reiki systems, it uses the classic usui reiki, bringing it on
a higher level. This isn’t about one being better than the other. We can compare it to going to the
university, if you are in the first year you can’t study the subjects of the second year, because it is on a
higher level, you haven’t followed the path that would allow you to do that. That’s why it is important to
understand that this reiki isn’t better, it is something that you already know. A key prerequisite of this
course is being a master in usui reiki, and it can also help if you are a master in karuna reiki, in tera mai
reiki, or in Tibetan reiki. This is required to receive all the benefits that this system can give you. Imara
reiki doesn’t use symbols and attunements are given in a different way compared to other techniques.
Imara reiki can heal subconscious issues. To solve any issue, you have to know what it is, otherwise you
won’t be able to solve it. Imara reiki can dig deeper, showing you the issue, so you can fix that. Imara
reiki can also be used to heal remotely, and another thing that happens during an imara reiki treatment
is that you also become a channel for messages that the guides can give you about the person you are
healing. Since it can reach a higher frequency, it brings you closer to subtle worlds where you can
communicate with higher being that can guide you.

03. Higher frequency

Imara reiki was first channeled by Barton Wendel, and it was completed as a system thanks to his
brother Geoffrey. It works on a higher frequency compared to the ones we were using before, and it
uses laho-chi, an healing energy on a higher frequency. Since this reiki has a higher frequency, not
everybody is ready to receive this attunement. That’s why the prerequisite is to be at least a reiki
master, otherwise you aren’t ready to receive this attunement. To make this thing easier to understand,
we can use the metaphor of the student again. Some mathematical concepts, such as equations, can’t
be the first thing that you study, you need to know other basic concepts, otherwise you aren’t able to
understand them, because you are lacking a background that allows you to understand the concept of
the equation, and how to use it. You can’t explain equations to a little kid. Imara energy is the same, if
you can’t channel this kind of energy, you won’t be able to do it no matter what. The best thing to do to
know if you can receive the attunement to imara reiki is talking to your higher self, asking if you can
receive the attunement to imara reiki, or otherwise to help you improve spiritually, so you can channel
this kind of energy. If you are giving an attunement to your student, he can do the same thing.

04. Imara Reiki Energy

To start using imara reiki, to connect to laho-chi, you can sing – in your head or out loud – “laho-chi”.
When you start a treatment on someone, you should sing at least three times laho-chi, and the more
engaged you are when singing it, the better the attunement will be. You can also sing the mantra for the
whole healing session. You can also use this mantra in other cases, it is suggested to sing it three times
in the morning or in the evening, you can do it as long as you think you should. When you invoke this
energy, you are invoking an energy with a high frequency within you, so repeating it can only help. Laho-
chi refers to a great master of Taoism, an interesting figure, since Taoism is completely based on
balance. We could define this person as the manifestation of balance on Earth, so his energy is very
powerful.

05. Treatment

As we’ve already said, you must start the treatment by singing three times, or nine times if you prefer,
“laho-chi”, which will be more effective if you give it an intonation, and after repeating this mantra you
just have to put your hand where you want the energy to go, and you only have to let it flow for as long
as you want. You can use a timer and choose how long you want the treatment to last, or if you can feel
the energy, you can stop when you feel that the treatment has stopped. The treatment works even if
you can’t feel the energy.

06. Daily techniques

This energy is like a tornado, and you can see it if you practice constantly with the right exercises and
treatments, so I’ll explain an exercise to practice daily, and another exercise to reach this kind of result.
07. Recharging your chakras

An easy practice to balance the chakras, to access the power that these chakras can give you, is the
following. Keep in mind that chakras are a bridge with other worlds, they are energetic centers that can
make you reach those levels. We could define the chakras as spiritual sensory organs. I hope that as a
reiki master, you will make a treatment on yourself every day. I don’t know if you are already doing it,
but that’s the best thing you can do. The easy practice that I was talking about doesn’t require you to
use your hands. You can even do this when you are on a bus. First, focus and relax for 30 seconds,
because you have to be in the optimal state to receive and use the energy. You can do this for 30
seconds, or if you have enough time, you can do it for even more. Begin from the root chakra and start
visualizing white energy going inside of it for 1 minute. You don’t have to follow your breath. You don’t
have to visualize energy going in only when you are breathing in, it is constantly coming in. The most
important rule of energy, as you already know because I always repeat it, is that energy goes where you
are focusing. Even if you can’t visualize the energy, all you have to do is focus on that chakra. Don’t think
about anything else, and the chakra will be filled with energy. Another thing that you can do to improve
the process is putting two fingers on the chakra. For example, you can do this if you are working on the
crown chakra, then keep visualizing white energy coming in the crown chakra for one minute. Using
your fingers will help you because you will feel the energy better, and if you find it hard to focus on
something, by using your fingers this will be easier to do. You can also use your whole hand; the
objective is using touch to focus better. It will be easier to do on lower chakras, the root chakra, the
sacral chakra, the solar plexus, hearth, and throat chakras, but it will be harder on higher chakras,
because keeping your arm in this position for 1 minute becomes hard, but you can lean on something. If
this technique doesn’t help you focusing, you can also do it without using your fingers.

08. Chakra balancing

Another thing that I can tell you to know how long you should do it is that there are free apps on the
play store, I don’t know about iOS, but I think it is the same. I use an app called “yoga timer”, where you
can set timers, for example I set “fast meditation”, with 7 30-second timers, and at the end of every
timer it makes a sound that I can choose. Without losing my focus I change the chakra I’m working on.
This is the best option, you should also keep doing this for more than 1 minute, and if you do it for 2
minutes in total it would take 15 minutes, giving you more energy. If you have enough time, you can also
do it for 4 minutes, because it gives you a lot of energy, 30 minutes of meditation every day should be
the minimum for people who work with energy. If you can do more it is even better, for example one
hour, but it depends on how much free time you have, because practicing with energy shouldn’t be the
only thing you think about. Two more things that you can do: one would be to create your own
protective sphere, in this course I won’t explain how to do it because that’s not part of the subject, but I
talked about it in my other courses, especially in the chi-ball course. It is great to make your own
protective chi-ball, at least every day, but you can do it more times in one day. Another thing that you
should do at least once in a while, for example once a week, is moving energy to balance chakras. When
we meditate, we are doing it for the same amount of time on every chakra, so it is balanced, but our
chakras could be out of balance, for example our crown chakra could be low in energy, while other
chakras have too much energy. If you keep meditating that way, you won’t receive all the energy that
you should, so the chakras aren’t going to be balanced. Unless you are working with angels to balance
your chakras, you can move the energy inside of them. You can use two fingers or your hands, and when
you have finished the meditation, you can start from the lower chakra, and with the intention of moving
energy along the axis of the chakras, you can start moving upwards slowly, until you reach the crown
chakra, and then you can move your fingers back, you may even feel the energy moving inside of you,
and do that at least 2-3 times. For example, you can do this once a week, by adding 5 minutes to your
meditation. The intention is important, and since all the chakras are linked, by moving the energy this
way, maybe doing it once won’t be enough, but doing it more times will balance your chakra and your
energetic field. You can also do it without your hand, but I suggest using your hand, at least at first.
When you can feel the energy, you can stop using your fingers, and you can only focus on the movement
of the energy, feeling it reach the crown chakra, and then feeling it coming down to the root chakra. This
is a great way to recharge your chakras. To close the energetic sequence, you can use the raiku. By doing
this movement with your hand, you are closing the energetic link with the chakras, so there won’t be
any issues. You can use the technique that you prefer to do that.

09. Visualization exercises

Visualization exercises are very useful, especially if you find it hard to visualize. That’s why these
visualization exercises are useful, and they also help you when focusing. It is important to focus
whenever you are working with reiki, so you need to know how to do it. The more you practice, the
easier it will be to focus. This isn’t something useful only if you work with reiki, it is something important
for everything in your life. When you focus on something, you will direct your energy to that. Whatever
you want to do, the important thing is to focus on that, and you will receive what you want, also based
on your ability to focus. If you aren’t careful, you may focus on the wrong thing, which will worsen your
situation, because you are sending energy to the things that make you worry. You have to focus on the
things that make you feel good, that heal you, that make you happy. There are many visualization
exercises, I’ll only explain a couple of them, you’ll find many online, but I don’t want to teach you too
many things, because if I explain 15 exercises you probably aren’t going to understand them well, but if I
only explain one or two, I can get into more details. I want to make sure that you understand everything
I explain, and if I explain too much it will be hard to understand everything. The first exercise is an easy
one. Choose an object and focus on it for 5 minutes every day. Those 5 minutes are useful, not only for
reiki, but for everything in your life. Start with an easy object, and after those 5 minutes, close your eyes
and visualize that object. Focus on the details. Then you can open your eyes and try to analyze if what
you are visualizing is the same as the real object. Then you can close your eyes again, trying to focus
again on the details. This is very useful to improve your visualization skills. As you improve you can use
objects with more details, but it is better to start with objects that have less details. If you look closely at
the leaf of a plant, you can see that it has many details, so it is hard to visualize, but if you can do it, it
means that you have improved a lot. Choose only one object at a time. The second exercise, which may
sound easy at first, is visualizing a room of your house. Try to make a virtual tour of your house in your
mind. Look at everything inside the room. In this case you mustn’t look at the room first, you have to
focus on what you remember. You will soon realize that it’s very hard to remember all the details. When
you have visualized the whole room, the exercise is over and you can look at the room again, and you
will see what you remembered wrong or what was missing. Even if you don’t visualize the whole room,
you can stop and start again the day after. At the beginning you should choose the same room every
time, so you can improve your visualization skill, your focus, and your memory. You are improving a lot
of things with an exercise on visualization. This will improve your life. I suggest sparing enough time to
practice, I know that there are many things that you have to do every day, but it is also important to
practice constantly, to improve your life. I also suggest doing it at the same time of the day every day, if
possible, so you also create a routine. Even if these exercises may look easy, the results will drastically
improve your life.

10. How to prepare mentally for a treatment

When making a treatment to a client, with imara reiki but also with other treatments, you have to be
willing to heal or to solve an issue, based on the scope of the treatment. Often someone wants to be
healed, but they look at the illness as if there was no way to be healed. That’s a passive behavior, which
will only worsen the illness, or at least it blocks the healing process. That’s why the receiver must want
to receive the treatment. Someone thirsty in the desert really wants water, that’s the true desire. If the
day after you don’t want something anymore, then it wasn’t a real desire. Laughing is also important
because it heals you on many levels. Many people don’t laugh for entire days, and that’s bad. Laughing
is very useful, it can be used in yoga, but you can also look at a tv show that makes you laugh. That’s
better than looking at horror movies, which make you more anxious. If you are already scared of many
things, you shouldn’t watch horror movies, you should watch something that makes you laugh. This will
help you heal greatly compared to all the other things. You can read some jokes, but it is important to
laugh. When we are kids, we take things easily, but when we grow up, everything becomes serious. We
realize that we have to survive, life isn’t a game anymore. If you hear someone saying, “life is hard”, he
is preparing to face life that way, so he won’t be having fun, he is preparing for a hard life, and this can
become an illness. To improve the healing process, you have to visualize yourself without the illness.
During the treatment, you don’t need all the details about the illness, otherwise the client will focus on
something that he doesn’t want, the energy knows where it is needed. You have to tell your clients to
not worry about the illness, they have to visualize themselves as if they were healthy. They should
visualize the things that they would do without the illness during the treatment. This is also important if
you are making a treatment on yourself, this mindset is the key. It is useless to focus on the negative
aspects of the illness because energy goes where you focus, so if you focus on the illness, you are only
making things worse. You have to focus on healing and on what you’ll do when you are healthy. Don’t
think about the pain of the illness, think about the happiness that healing will bring you.

11. Imara Reiki treatment

Imara reiki can be used with your hands. It doesn’t have any symbols, similar to the first level of reiki
usui. Often symbols can speed up the treatment, but if you are always using them, you will slowly lose
the ability to feel the energy, that’s why I think that sometimes you should make a treatment with your
hands. That’s why imara reiki uses mostly hands. If you already know how to begin a treatment, you can
use that technique, there isn’t a specific beginning in this case, except repeating the mantra three times.
You can make a centering of your hearth for example. The treatment will be focused on what the client
asks, so you have to focus on the result that you want to achieve. The energy will work effectively by
itself, you only have to send it where it is needed. You can let the energy guide you, you don’t have to
focus only on what the client has told you; you also have to follow the energy. If you aren’t able to let
the energy guide you, you can follow some standard positions, which are usually kept for 3 minutes,
unless you want to focus on a particular zone. Sometimes you may be working on a chakra, and you can
feel it keeping you there, so you don’t have to move away after 3 minutes. You can use the positions
that you have learned in the first level of reiki usui, or you can add some variations. You have to follow
your intuition; you don’t have to create mental blocks that won’t allow you to follow your intuition.
That’s why I think that specific positions aren’t very useful. They may be useful if you are unexperienced,
if it is your first reiki course, but when you have reached the imara reiki level. You can also work on
many chakras, but if you focus only on a few chakras, the treatment will be more effective. You have to
make the right treatment for the issue that you have to solve, but the energy knows what it has to do. If
you don’t trust your intuition, or if you can’t feel the energy yet, do what you think is right. If the client
has a broken leg, you can treat the leg first, don’t worry about that. One of the fundamental rules of
reiki is the intention, you don’t have to worry about other things.

12. Receiving messages and intuitions

It is common to receive messages at these energetic levels. Messages can be ions, or if you are good at
clairvoyance, you may even receive words and sounds, the more you practice, the more you’ll see this
kind of messages and visions. You may even see the spiritual guides of the people you are treating, or
even yours, and memories of their past lives. Those messages can be received in many ways, and the
one receiving the treatment may also see the same experience that you see. This can happen in many
ways. When I was making a treatment, I saw a fire, it was one of the first messages I received, and I
didn’t know what it meant, it confused me, when it should be easy to understand that the fire meant
that I was treating an inflamed area. When you practice and you improve, you’ll start receiving
messages, and you don’t have to worry about that, the only thing you have to worry about is practicing,
on others and on yourself, and you will see the results, whether it is about healing or about receiving a
message. You will see the results thanks to your experience and your desire. Sooner or later, you’ll get
to that.

13. Remote treatment

How do you make a remote treatment or a treatment on yourself? You can follow the same process that
I already explained, the only difference is that you’ll have to visualize the client or use a surrogate. You
have to connect energetically to him, and you can do that by asking to your higher self to send the
healing to the other person’s higher self, even if you don’t have his approval, and then you can use your
hands. You can also visualize the treatment, without physically using your hands, you can visualize the
energy going to the client. This can also be done when you are making a treatment on yourself, without
using your hands, you just have to visualize the energy coming inside of you, in a particular zone or in
your energetic field. There is nothing hard to do, it is about using a higher energy, which will also bring
you to a higher frequency.

14. Attunement process

Imara reiki attunements are easy, you only need the intention. The easiest way to do it, other than all
the things you always do, such as cleaning the room and relaxing, and all the things that you already
know, is connecting to the client or the student. You can do it by putting your hands over his head, not
necessarily while touching it, even if it may be better to do it, and make him sit with his hands over his
legs, with the palms upwards and a straight back to help the flow of energy, while being relaxed, even
on a chair. After doing that, you have to repeat the mantra at least three times, as if you were recalling
the energy, and when you have your hands near his head, you must have the intention of giving him the
attunement to Imana reiki. You can tell your student to accept the energy, if he can receive it, and all
you have to do is start the process. The process will keep going on its own, you can wait for example 5
minutes to let the energy flow. When you make the initial ceremony the energy will peak, then it will
constantly decrease. Once you’ve done that, the student can make a treatment on himself with imara
reiki, he can thank the laho-chi energy, and the attunement process is completed.

15. Remotely

To make a remote treatment, the process is the same, you can use all the techniques that you want, you
can put your hands over a surrogate, you can visualize yourself doing the treatment, or you can even
only use the intention of giving the attunement to someone, if you know who he is. All the rules that can
be used in the reiki systems that you already know also apply to imara reiki. As we’ve said in the other
lessons, imara reiki only adds a higher energy to what you already know. It is like a high performing gas,
which will make your car run faster and better.

16. Last tips

There aren’t other tips on this reiki system. As we’ve seen it’s an easy method, and that’s what makes it
great. I’ve often seen reiki systems that make things harder by using strange and difficult techniques,
with strange hand positions, which may seem more effective, but if we study the technique, we can see
that they are mostly useless. You can avoid using them. Maybe a particular treatment will be slightly
more effective because our subconscious is more influenced, but that’s the only difference. It is fine, but
you can avoid doing it. Imara reiki brings reiki to the essential, and it gives great results. That’s why you
should know the different reiki systems. Someone may find easier things better, but someone may not
feel the energy unless you use symbols. Everyone is different, that’s why there isn’t a better system in
general, a system may be better for me but not for you. That’s why you have to adapt to the client that
is receiving the treatment. You can do that by talking with him, trying to understand what he expects or
what he already knows, but you don’t have to worry too much about that. Just keep practicing and
follow your intuition.

17. Conclusion

We are now at the end of this course. I hope you liked how easy this system was, and even if I don’t
know whether you felt the higher energy, I know that with practice you’ll feel it sooner or later. As I said
at the beginning, I’m honored to have you here with me, your path has just begone, now you have to
practice what you’ve learned. I suggest practicing a lot on yourself, because when you change, the
whole world around you changes. You aren’t required to treat others, but you can also follow my other
courses to improve your techniques. Even if you only use imara reiki on yourself, you are also treating
the whole world around you. I invite you to practice a lot, and I want to give you an energetic hug. We’ll
see each other again in the next course, bye.
