Shamanic Elements in Reiki: S.E.R. Certification

FAQ

I'm not a Reiki attuned practitioner, can I still enroll in S.E.R.?

S.E.R.'s intensive practitioner training is designed to help you identify your original medicine, build confidence in your gifts, and trust your inner knowing. This training is open to all practitioners, regardless of whether you've formalized a business in the holistic arts.
S.E.R. embraces individuals at all experience levels, from those new to energy work to those with a background in it. If you’re interested in exploring S.E.R. and incorporating these transformative techniques into your healing practices—whether in medical, psychological, or wellness settings—this program is for you. Join us on this journey of self-discovery and integration!

I'm already a Reiki practitioner how will S.E.R. be helpful?

If you are ready to deepen your practices and expand your skill set through Shamanistic / Indigenous / Ancestral practices, then the S.E.R. 6-month program or immersive practitioner trainings can support you. The protocols and training encourage you to embrace your original medicine and integrate the many threads of your experience, heritage, and training.  Also, you learn to connect to your own ser or sense of self by learning how to live in right action, relation, and thought with self and all beings. 

Can I just enroll in just one course of S.E.R.?

Yes. Each course stands on its own and you'll receive the respective attunement for that level. 

I’m not of Indigenous lineage. Is it appropriate for me to take this training and integrate Shamanic elements into my practice?

Yes — this training does not teach or replicate any one Indigenous tradition. Instead, S.E.R. honors Earth-based and energetic healing principles that are found across cultures. It invites you to deepen your connection to Spirit, Nature, and ancestral wisdom in a respectful, non-appropriative way.

As the facilitator, I do not claim an Indigenous tribal affiliation. My approach is rooted in mestizx experience, spiritual integrity, and reverence for the lineages that inform this work. If you come with humility, openness, and respect, you are welcome here.

What is the difference between taking S.E.R. Levels 1–3 individually versus the S.E.R. Immersive Practitioner Training?

S.E.R. Levels 1–3 are sequential, skills-based training that guide practitioners to integrate Shamanic elements into their energy wellness practice. Each level builds upon the last—from foundational techniques like clearing chakras with plant and animal allies (Level 1), to guiding clients through soul retrieval and working with the three realms (Level 2), or applying therapeutic touch and balancing the nervous system through sacred energy centers (Level 3). These levels are ideal for those who want to work hands-on or add depth to their existing Reiki/Holistic Energy sessions.
The S.E.R. Immersive is a concentrated path designed for intuitive practitioners, coaches, and spiritual guides who want to incorporate shamanic principles and ritual into their offerings—without using therapeutic touch protocols. This immersive experience includes all ten energetic rites, a comprehensive 110-page guidebook, guided experiences, and hands-on practicums. 

Both tracks are open to those who feel called to ancestral practices, even if they don’t have a Reiki background.
If you’re seeking to offer energy work through ritual, guided journeys, ancestral reconnection, and elemental healing—without formal touch protocols—the Immersive is your path. If you’re looking to deepen or enhance your Reiki or hands-on healing practice with shamanic techniques, then the level 1–3 path is for you.
