What is Reiki?
Reiki is translated from Japanese to
mean “Universal Life Force.”
A Reiki healer channels this energy
and is the conduit for the energy to
flow through the body and out
through the hands. It is a
tradition that has been passed down
from Master teacher to student.
How the classes are taught:
You will learn principles and
techniques from Diana Siderides
(Traditional Reiki Master) and
receive attunements that allow
direct connection to the unlimited
source of energy. Classes are taught
at three levels:
Reiki I: This is the
basic/introductory class. You will
learn all of the positions and how
to connect with the Reiki energies
Reiki II: You will learn how use to
Reiki at a distance, gain 3 of the 4
Master Symbols, and become more
empowered with Reiki
Reiki III: You become a Reiki
Master and you learn the Master
Symbol

33 years and is one of the rare

Testimonials:
A REIKI TESTIMONY
About nine months ago, my husband
and I went to Chicago to join some
other folks in learning about Reiki.
Although I have always been
interested in healing (I’m a nurse
with 24 years of school and public
health nursing history), I was
actually skeptical, not so much that
Reiki didn’t work or wasn’t
legitimate, as that it wouldn’t work
FOR ME! I have never been one to
have unusual or “woo-woo”
experiences, am very practical and
no nonsense, but also have long had
an interest in spirituality and
things “out there”. I’m afraid I
gave Diana, our teacher, a hard time
by questioning her somewhat harshly
(which I didn’t really realize at
the time). But I went through the
training and the “attunements” and
began half-heartedly to do some
Reiki as we had been instructed, but
not very diligently, and not very
often. I was more “playing” with
it, as I still didn’t really know
what I wanted to do with it. Then
came the time for the second class,
for which we were going to Idaho,
and our group wanted to do this all
together. I didn’t want to miss out
on the fun and “lose face” with my
friends, and still had a subliminal
desire to do more in healing than I
had learned via allopathic medicine.
But a trip to Idaho isn’t cheap,
(from Indiana), and I wanted to be
sure that I really wanted to learn.
Also, I had to QUALIFY for the
course, and go through a phone
interview with Diana. This made me
get more serious and really look at
whether I wanted to do this. She
told me I needed to get more serious
about actually using the Reiki I had
learned, and asked me why I should
be considered for the class. I
answered as honestly as I knew how,
saying that I did have a deep desire
to learn and help others through
this method. (Then I also stepped
up the Reiki practice after that!)
So we took the Reiki II class this
January, and I really became more
serious about Reiki as a way of
life, and understanding life as
greater energy which ties all of us
together. We have the ability to
tap into this energy in the ways
that Diana had been trained and then
taught us. It still blows me away
that it is really so simple. I do
Reiki pretty regularly now, and
expect to feel the energy moving
beneath my hands and the connection
with the person I am “working” on,
even at a distance. I have helped
two people to cross over the barrier
between this life and the next. I
have given Reiki to a friend with
severe clinical depression, and she
said she was “in heaven”. I have
done Reiki on my husband when he was
in his office seeing patients toward
the end of a very busy day, and he
experienced a lifting of tiredness
and ability to go on. I also was
blessed to Reiki another healer who
said she had not let anyone lay
hands on her for the last seven
years, because of a traumatic history of abuse. I have had other
experiences as well.
For myself, I experience a calming
and lifting and readiness to get on
with whatever I need to do. In
short, Reiki has been a true
blessing in my life and I will use
it for the rest of my life. I thank
Diana for her accepting me into the
class, and for the things she has
taught us. I thank Marcy, her
assistant, as well. Both have
become true friends.
If you are curious about or thinking
of taking Reiki I, I would encourage
you to call Diana and get a Reiki
treatment from her first, or simply
sign up for her next class.

Traditional Reiki I Workshop Review-
November, 2007
I recently had the pleasure of being
invited to join a two day class and
get attuned to the first level of
Reiki. Studying spiritualism for the
last seven years, it had come to my
attention that I needed to
experience exactly what people meant
when they were talking about feeling
and seeing energy. I have had very
brief moments of each and wanted to
escalate those encounters, but had
no idea how. A couple of friends of
mine are into Reiki and after
listening to them describe it and
having experienced the healing
properties of Reiki in a session
with them, I decided that this was
just what I was looking for.
Searching into Reiki on the internet
I signed up for an online course.
Following the course step by step,
at its conclusion, I got absolutely
nothing out of it. It was a complete
waste of time and money. I still
felt that Reiki was the way to go
for me, so when I heard a few other
friends were gathering a class
together for a live Reiki training I
immediately jumped in.
The instructor, Diana Siderides, is
a Master in Traditional Reiki and
studied under one of the only three
Grand Masters of Reiki that there
are, and has practiced this form of
energetic healing for about
thirty-three years. For me, those
two facts alone, told me she was the
instructor I was looking for. I
definitely did not want some watered
down version, interpreted version,
or someone’s hybrid version.
Whenever I want to know or learn
something, I always go to, or get as
close as possible to, the source,
where the lesson is in its truest
and most pure, original form. Also,
the fact that Diana has been
practicing with traditional Reiki
for over thirty-three years, tells
me she has an extensive working
knowledge and practical experience
with it. In my book, there is
absolutely nothing more powerful
than personal experience!
As a person, I love Diana’s sense of
humor. Although she keeps it well
hidden, when it finally seeps
through, it shows the inner joy of a
life filled with richness and the
peace of finding and fulfilling a
noble purpose. What Ms. Siderides
can not hide is, her genuine love of
nature’s aesthetic beauty, her deep
felt compassion for all life,
animal, plant and mineral, as well
as human, and her veracious concern
to aid and help guide all to a more
serene and tranquil coexistence.
Diana, the instructor, has a direct,
no-nonsense, and to the point style
of teaching, that can be likened to
a breath of fresh clean air. You may
not be used to it and have to gulp
it in at first, but in time your
body realizes this is the way it
should be and was meant to be, and
you begin to appreciate the crisp
clearness of it, making you want to
absorb as much as possible. Her two
day trainings have no time for
“fillers” as they are literally
packed with a perfect mix of
teachings, hands on experience, and
spiritualistic connections. And of
course, she has an enormously vast
array of personally acquired
examples (stories) of her life
working with Reiki, to astound and
open exciting new pathways of
unlimited possibilities for her
students.
My personal encounter with Diana’s
Level I Reiki training, unlocked a
multitude of emotions and energies
within me. Under Diana’s guidance, I
learned how to connect to the
healing energy known as Reiki,
(which loosely translates from
Japanese to “universal life force
that animates all living things”),
and channel it through myself,
virtually becoming a receiving
antennae and conduit, into the
energy field and body of a fellow
being. When introduced into ones
body, Reiki removes blockages in a
person’s energy flow and resets
their system to its original state
of perfect health and harmony. While
still considering my self to be a
novice and my almost daily practices
of Reiki being done mainly on
myself, I have experienced amazing
sessions with this force. I
literally and physically feel this
healing energy enter into my body
and flow through my hands into the
subject. When the subject is myself,
I feel Reiki re-entering my body
through my hands where I can relax
and leave it to clear and heal the
most pertinent issues of my body, or
if I let my ego get involved, I can
direct it to any part of my body I
choose. The calmness and peace of
mind, not to mention the excitement
of every cell in my body jubilant
from getting a recharge after each
session, is indescribable. And my
cats, one in particular, never
misses a session, as they
instinctually gravitate towards and
love to bask in this natural life
force.
While I know Reiki is not the
totality of my life’s calling, it is
so congruent, that I have determined
it mandatory and have scheduled my
Reiki Level II training. (He learned
Reiki II in January 2008).
Diana, it is with my sincerest
gratitude that I have been connected
with the honest and dedicated
traditional Reiki missionary that is
you.
Thank you!

Traditional Reiki II workshop -
November 2005
WOW!!!! Luckily I'm a writer and I
never run into the problem of
"there's nothing more to say"!
I attended a Reiki II workshop this
weekend near Emmett at the home of
my Reiki Teacher and Reiki Master -
Diana Siderides. It was so
incredible, so empowering, and eye
opening on so many levels. Just when
you think it's gotten as cool or
powerful as it possible could,
Spirit opens up another door, we
climb another flight of stairs and
it keeps spiraling ever upward.
For those unfamiliar with Reiki - it
is a hands-on healing practice in
which the practitioner calls in the
universal life energy known as Reiki
and channels it through to himself,
a person, an object, a situation,
etc... Begun in the 19th century in
Japan (long LONG, but beautiful,
story) it first came to the US in
the middle of the 20th century, and
now has quite a following, with
thousands of practitioners.
There are three levels of Reiki - I,
2, and 3, and each level is a deeper
initiation into the spiritual and
energetic power of the energy. In
First degree, we become connected to
the power through attunements in
which the teacher connects us with
the energy, and learn how to use the
flow through hand positions. During
Second Degree, we were attuned on a
more powerful level, and learned
symbols to use in our practice to
call in even more energy and to
practice distantly - i.e. the person
or object we were treating did not
have to be in the same physical
space as us.
There's obviously a lot more about
Reiki, but this will suffice as a
general introduction. Check out the
internet to learn more about the
wide world of Reiki, its history and
its practices.
In Second Degree, I found the energy
of the house and my hands to be so
strong it was almost surreal. Diana,
my teacher whom I have known for
over a year now, is so full of
healing energy and love and REALNESS
that it was wonderful just to be in
her presence. She has been
practicing Reiki for over 30 years
and her attunement, connection, and
understanding of the Reiki
Consciousness is amazing.
I found during this class that I was
open to hearing and seeing more
about these aspects. I meet a lot of
healers in the work that I do, and
often, as is the case with most
human beings, I make an impression
of them based on a lot of things
when I meet and interact with them.
From my gut, head, and obviously my
own past experiences, and the words
that come out of their mouths. With
Diana I realized that I had put her
in my life as an amazing Reiki
teacher, but there were things about
her life that I couldn't place in my
own understanding of Enlightenment
or being awake. What I found this
time was that either she opened up
or revealed herself more, or I was
suddenly open and aware to more, but
I know that she is WAY deeper than I
realized, and on, what my TOSA
friends would call (see last blog
message) the level of Ascension
Awareness, while I am still
operating a lot of the time out of
Spiritual Activism.
At any rate, I now hold her in my
heart as a Teacher of all things,
someone to look up to, and a
spiritual guide. I'm so grateful
that I was open to that experience,
and open to having my ideas
challenged and to letting them go.
While I can't go into the symbol
details or much more, I will say
that allowing myself to go deeper I
gave myself such a huge gift, and
feel today that my ability as a
healer is more rightly aligned with
the Universe, and that while I still
have life doubts, and all of that,
there exists a place and a power I
can go to inside myself and all
around me, that exists on a higher
vibration but is ever available. For
instance, when I was with Diana I
felt and saw myself as a successful
Reiki practitioner, and when I
pulled into my driveway, I felt that
it was a pipe dream, that no one
would ever respond to my ad, and
that I would always be scrounging
for money, blah blah blah. I know
that this is a common feeling in
this Valley, particularly about the
lack and not-enoughness, and that I
have the CHOICE as to whether I will
buy into it - operate at that level
- or choose to operate on another
level. I don't have to do anything.
That's my report from this weekend.
I offer it to you in hopes that it
will spark your own inner and outer
explorations! Angela Earle
