My first Reiki attunement was with Usui Reiki. The rest of my training has been completed with Holy Fire Reiki. There was no specific reason for my decision; my first training was incredible, as was my Reiki teacher. But I was inexplicably drawn to Holy Fire Reiki even though the training was much more expensive and much harder for me to travel to.
My lineage is Usui/Holy Fire and any students who train with me will be the same. The Usui training is the basis of our Reiki teachings until such trainings as the Advanced training day and master/teacher training.
We honour our strong Usui lineage and the traditional teachings of Usui sensei. We recognise that there are many different systems of Reiki, such as Angelic Reiki and Crystal Reiki. We respect all lineages of Reiki at Holistic Soul.
William Lee Rand developed Holy Fired in 2014. One of the main differences is how the student becomes attuned to the Reiki energy. In Usui Reiki, it is a physical hand placement attunement, with Holy Fire it is called a placement and the energy is received through meditation.
Many people believe the Holy Fire energy to be much more powerful, but I can't comment on that, as every training I have received has been incredibly powerful.
