Meet Shūyō: Your Daily Reiki Companion
You studied the system of Reiki. Now begins the daily practice! The Shūyō App is your daily Japanese Reiki self-practice: guided each morning and evening, so you always know what to practise, how to practise it, and that you are doing it right.
Shūyō means self-cultivation, and that is exactly what this new Reiki app is for. Each morning and evening, be guided through traditional Japanese Reiki practice: Japanese meditations, poetry contemplation, precept recitation and more, in the voice of Reiki author and teacher Bronwen Logan.
It is inspired by the traditional Japanese practice of the Usui Ryoho Gakkai, the original Reiki society founded around Mikao Usui’s teachings, whose members did not treat their practice as an occasional treat. They practised daily, together, as a way of living. The Shūyō App brings that daily rhythm gently into your pocket, and it is open to every Reiki lineage and level.
It works on any phone or computer, no app store needed, and with every day you practise, a blossom opens petal by petal. Watch your garden bloom, one day at a time.
Inside the app: your daily dashboard, today’s guided practice, and your blooming garden.
Every practice, every level, every lineage
New to Reiki
- No guesswork and no wondering if you are doing it right. Just press play and practise.
- Learn the shape of a traditional daily practice from day one, one gentle step at a time.
Experienced practitioners
- Maybe you need a hand to keep practising. Or you just enjoy being guided through your practice. Both are perfect reasons.
- Every seven days brings a new practice, so your routine never goes stale.
Busy practitioners
- Choose the full practice, or just 10 minutes on a crowded day. Both count, and both open petals.
- Gentle reminders at times you choose, so practice fits around real life.
Returning practitioners
- It has been a while? That is alright. You do not need to catch up, you just need today.
- Begin again gently and watch your garden bloom back to life, one day at a time.
Reiki teachers
- Your practice is your teaching. Shūyō keeps your own daily practice steady, morning and evening.
- When students ask “how do I practise at home?”, send them here. It is open to every lineage.
Lovers of Japanese culture
- Weekly waka, the meditation poems of the Meiji Emperor and Empress, with questions to sit with.
- Practices drawn from the Japanese roots of the system of Reiki, presented simply and beautifully.

What Reiki practitioners are saying
I’m loving the Shuyo App, everything about it. I have a lot going on just now and it’s so helpful to have this guided practice, I love that I can choose a longer time or just 10 minutes on a busy day. I also love reading the Waka, this is a new practice for me.
SusanThis app has provided the exact tool I needed to deepen my practice, and I am incredibly grateful to you for creating it. It is clear how much time and thought you put into every detail, from the waka and music to the flexible choice between guided and unguided practice times. The extensive recording work makes everything flow together beautifully, and the app is visually stunning as well.
BrendaCourse and app are just right for me. 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 ❤
