Why are you practising Reiki?
Shinpiden+ gives you the answers. It takes you back through Reiki I and II with the clarity of a Reiki III perspective, so the whole system finally fits together as one coherent practice that makes sense.
Whether you teach or simply want to live a happier, more meaningful life, you’ll gain the confidence that comes from truly understanding what you practise, and why. No more wondering if you’re doing it right. Just clarity, depth, and a foundation you can trust.
Usui Reiki Ryōhō: the teachings that help you become the practitioner, and teacher, you’ve always wanted to be.
From this training
Deep understanding
The Japanese foundations of the system, including the spiritual meaning of Dai Kōmyō and traditional techniques rarely taught in the West.
The Mystery Teachings
Explore who you truly are through the heart of Shinpiden, moving beyond technique into your authentic self and your connection to source.
Historical context
Where Reiki sits in today’s world: its origins with Mikao Usui, his peers and students, and how it differs from modern interpretations.
Practical techniques
Japanese methods including Kokyū Hō breathing meditations, spiritual poetry, sensing ki, and the traditional initiation of Reiju.
Confidence & clarity
A solid foundation of understanding that strengthens your confidence as a practitioner and, if you choose, as a teacher.
Community support
An international community of dedicated practitioners, with regular coaching sessions and ongoing guidance.
Your learning journey
Five sessions, 60 videos (800 minutes), 29 interactive quizzes, a detailed participant manual and curated research. Each section unlocks the next, so you always build on solid ground.
What IS Reiki? The essence of Shoden
Real clarity on what Reiki actually is, not what you’ve heard, but what it experientially means, and where you fit within the bigger picture. This is where everything starts to make sense.
The 5 elements of the system
The five essential elements every true practitioner becomes competent in, and how to weave them into daily practice. This is what separates someone who “does Reiki” from someone who embodies it.
Your inner circle of awareness: the essence of Okuden
The three symbols and mantras of Okuden, their Japanese origins, how they work, and why they matter, from the authentic perspective most Western teaching misses.
Becoming the Great Bright Light: the essence of Shinpiden
The heart of Shinpiden. Experience the fourth symbol and mantra not as something you “use,” but as a state you embody, discovering what it means to become Dai Kōmyō.
Understanding initiation & the teacher’s path
What initiation actually does, and what it means to be a teacher, professionally or in everyday life. Learn to perform Reiju, and the authentic, responsible way to share Reiki with integrity.

What Shinpiden+ students say
-
I just wanted to tell you how very much I am loving this course! It is all I had hoped for quadrupled. Your videos are fascinating, and the resources breathtaking in their range. I was so stymied after my Japanese Reiki 1&2 in London last year, and unable to get my head around all the often-contradictory-seeming information, but I am now finally able to join the dots. You are a marvellous teacher!

I am loving Shinpiden + and I am so happy I am taking this class with you. So grateful for all the hard work and research you have put into this class. The graphics, teaching videos and the way that you gradually introduce everything is simply wonderful!

I’m just loving Shinpiden+ with Bronwen Logan. I love her course so much and I recommend it to any Reiki practitioner regardless of whether they teach, work with others or with themselves only, as a way of settling into the mud, twigs, moss and clear mountain water of Japanese Reiki.

It is like a dream come true. So many questions answered, so many insights. What I’m planning on doing is when I finish the course, going back to the beginning and going more slowly. Thanks so much for creating this course.

I feel so blessed, so grateful for having the opportunity to take this course. For me, it all finally made sense – what I did, why I did that, why I felt this or that. No more “empty” movements.

I absolutely love what you have created. In my opinion this is exactly what we need right now in the Reiki world. I am loving every minute of exploring and practicing, contemplating and am just very exited. You did a wonderful thing in creating this. Thankyou thankyou thankyou.

I am loving this online course because: There’s reading, listening, watching, writing, and contemplation time. There’s regular Zoom coaching with Bronwen. It’s completely self-paced… though we are encouraged to take it slow, experience and embody… but to no finish by. There’s invitation and pathway to collaboration with other students. Bronwen’s presentation style is extremely engaging, and there’s a library of previous coaching videos, which are accessible when you subscribe to the fortnightly coaching class. I’m learning new content. The home study questions and reflection prompts are engaging. It’s really interesting.

Your contribution to the world of Reiki, with your books and embodied wisdom, is truly so honorable, Bronwen. I am grateful to you each day I’m in practice for just how much you have helped me grow my understanding and authenticity for living Reiki.

The Shinpiden+ course and the Shūyō App are just right for me as it includes an easy as breath way, as you say, to practice a variety of techniques. I’m 75 going to be 76 in September, and this is a great early birthday gift from me to me. Thank you, thank you again!

Bronwen brings a beautiful depth of understanding to her teaching, and her warm and genuine delivery makes the learning feel very personal. At times it truly feels like she is right there in the room, gently guiding the process. Her way of teaching makes these deeper aspects of Reiki feel accessible, grounded and supportive.

What I especially value is having access to the teaching videos, allowing me to revisit them and continue deepening my understanding over time. Each time I return to the material, something new reveals itself.
