Intuition Reiki

Intuition Reiki is a system Stephanie Brail developed to strengthen intuition. By its own account it clears the energy around the third eye and eases the biases and fears that make spiritual information harder to receive.

Everyone is intuitive to some degree. Just as some people are more naturally gifted at sport or music, some are more naturally intuitive — but even without a strong natural gift you can develop it through practice and by clearing your energy field.

Regular Reiki practice strengthens intuition on its own; many practitioners report becoming more intuitive after attunement. What distinguishes Intuition Reiki is that it targets this directly rather than leaving it as a side effect.

The system uses no symbols; it works with visualisation instead. The choice is deliberate: visualisation itself feeds intuition, so the method of practice becomes part of the aim.

A substantial part of the handbook is given over to cautions. Psychic ability can become unbalanced without proper grounding and spiritual maturity. I advise against using a Ouija board, and ask you to pay attention to whom you are communicating with when you work with a pendulum or a similar tool, and above all to stay connected to everyday life: go outside, do your work, look after your health and what you eat.

Three obstacles to accurate intuitive information are set out. The first is personal bias: if you want something very much or are very afraid of it, the reading tilts that way — which is why psychics struggle to read for themselves. The second is blocked chakras, and the third is negative energies.

There is an order to the practice: the whole energetic body first, then the third eye. I advise against giving the crown chakra too much energy while the lower chakras are blocked; work on those first; opening the third eye while the lower chakras are not functioning well does not make for good intuition.

The course also gives simple, regular exercises for developing intuition on your own: keeping a dream journal, scanning with the hands to feel chakras and objects, and meditation. It suggests trying your hands instead of a pendulum — using intuition rather than relying on a tool moves you along faster.

Prerequisite: an attunement to at least Reiki level 2 (Master preferred). The course includes a PDF handbook, the attunement, a certificate and email support.
