Joni Bentley's Reiki for horse and rider therapy course

 

 

Joni Bentley's Reiki for horse and rider therapy course is designed for riders who want to become professional reiki for horses therapists and members of Joni Bentley's Reiki for horse and rider therapy association. It is also for riders who just want to use Reiki heal for themselves, their friends and their horses

It is incredible to think that there are so many horse whisperers, osteopaths, physiotherapists and many more practitioners out there, that treat horses without a thought as to how the rider may be affecting the horse’s soundness. Does it make sense to only treat a horse when it may be the rider, or even the saddle, that is making the horse unsound?

Joni Bentley's Reiki for horses therapy Course is the only one of its kind that treats the horse’s problems through the rider.

The suppleness and straightness of the rider’s seat, hips and spine, have a great affect on the way the horse’s hindquarters develop and function. For a horse to advance in his training without breaking down, he must be allowed to use the correct postural muscles. For this to happen the rider must be straight, supple and fully able to absorb the horse’s movement throughout their body only then can the horse move forwards with impulsion and lightness in a good healthy outline.

If the rider’s seat bones are locked or stiff through crookedness and tension, they prevent the horse from stepping under himself with his hind legs and using the correct postural muscles, leaving his spine unsupported and therefore vulnerable to injury. Blocked in this way by the rider the horse can only respond by trailing his quarters. If the rider has one stiff hip, like the one opposite, the horse will take a short stride on that side and develop an unlevel action. This is commonly known as bridle lameness, although I call it rider lameness. Eventually the horse, like the rider, begins to suffer from lower back problems and lameness.

Joni Bentley's Reiki for horses therapy course not only teaches horse and rider deep relaxations and bonding it also teaches the rider how to be EQUAL ON BOTH REINS in order to allow the horse to work correctly and powerfully behind. Only then will he start to stretch his head and neck out of his shoulders and lower himself onto the bit to achieve riding success without stress and pain.

Degree 1 and 11 of Joni Bentley's Reiki for horse and rider course, not only attunes the rider to become a Reiki practitioner it also addresses crookedness and stiffness in the riders. You will learn how to heal horses and at the same time straighten rider to avoid injury in your clients riding future.

EQUAL ON BOTH REINS
Joni Bentley's Reiki for horses is a very simple, gentle and effective system of transmitting universal life-energy through hands-on-healing. It is used for healing the body, emotions, mind, and spirit. The word Reiki is composed of two Japanese characters: rei en ki.
Rei can be translated with 'universal'. Ki means life-energy or light. The two characters together express the coming together of divine force and the human being, or the unification of body and soul.

Universal life-force facilitates life, growth, healing, transformation, manifestation, balance, inner peace, oneness and the light in which we recognize the truth. And when your time has come it will make the transition peaceful.

In itself Reiki is nothing special; everyone disposes to a certain degree of Reiki.
You will instinctively put your hands on an injured body-part; mothers kiss or caress the place where their child is hurt; animals will lick their wounds, and if you have a close bond with your pet it could even lick your wounds.
The amount of innate life-force however is often weak and unfocused. Now this is where the healing system Reiki comes in: through a system of attunements, symbols, simple techniques and some principles you can make this power of the universe so much more useful. Anybody can learn how to do this and after having taken a course you can immediately practice healing .

Joni Bentley Reiki for horses uses the Usui Reiki Ryoho system using the three degrees or levels. Through this training you will gradually open up for a great amount of high vibrational energy.

Joni Bentley Reiki degree 1

Usui called the first degree in Reiki Shoden, or First Teaching. You will learn to heal yourself and others.
After having received the initiation all you have to do is to lay your hands on someone or something with the intent to heal and the energy will flow through you. For the first month you give yourself a treatment every day to build up the Reiki energy flowing through you. Although you will receive your Reiki 1 certificate we recommend that you only treat friends, family, horses, and pets. Bentley Hands on Practitioners will be asked to send me a video of five riders that they have worked with in their own time before qualifying as a practitioner. You can take Reiki 2 two months after your first attunement, which will give you more power and knowledge to heal and straighten riders and their horses.

Joni Bentley Reiki degree 2 (2 months after Reiki 1)

This second level is called Okuden, or Inner Teaching, in Japanese.
The most important thing in Okuden is learning to do absent or distance healings. You are taught how to heal people or animals not present, and how to send energy to a goal or situation.
You will receive another attunement which allows you to further open up your energy system, and it is believed that the amount of energy channelled with Reiki II is twice as much as the energy of Reiki I.
Three symbols are now given, so you can consciously learn to make use of them.

Joni Bentley Reiki degree 3 is the third and final level of Reiki. From there you can go on to be a Reiki Master

 

Even if you only complete Joni Bentley's Reiki healing level one you will achieve all the above healing and have the ability to heal your horse and friends.
