My reiki journey.

I first discovered Reiki when I was just out of high school and was suffering from depression. My friend told me that her mom had seen a medical hypnotherapist for past life regression and that we should go. Little did I know that the woman we were seeing was also a Reiki Master who used Reiki in all of her sessions. I started to see her regularly because after each session I felt so much better. I even looked different on my drive home.

Fast forward a decade later- one of my favorite yoga teachers was a Reiki master and gave Reiki in savasana and I loved it just as much as I always had. When my teacher offered a Reiki training I knew I wanted to do it and learn to use this amazing energy in my life on a regular basis. I ended up doing three Reiki trainings with her and became a Reiki master.

When I opened my yoga studio in 2019, I knew I wanted to have Reiki be a big part of it and do the next level of training to become a Reiki Master Teacher. By then my original teacher had moved away and I think my Reiki guides stepped in because I found the exact training I needed at the exact right time. I’ve been teaching Reiki ever since.

I LOVE teaching Reiki. Possibly more than I love teaching yoga. What continues to amaze me about my Reiki trainings is just how powerful and transformative they are for EVERY SINGLE PARTICIPANT every single time.

Each person goes on to use Reiki in their own way. Some become Reiki practitioners and work with their own clients, some use Reiki in their various careers, some use Reiki just on themselves and friends and family. But they all leave the training transformed after having a deeply spiritual experience.

I would love to have you in my next Reiki training!

*I am trained as a Karuna III Holy Fire Reiki Master Teacher in the Usui and Karuna III Holy Fire Reiki traditions to teach in person and virtual Reiki trainings.

  • Reiki training is for anyone! After the training, each person goes on to use Reiki in their own way. Some become Reiki practitioners and work with their own clients, some use Reiki in their various careers, some use Reiki just on themselves and friends and family. But everyone leaves the training transformed after having a deeply spiritual experience.

  • Reiki can never cause harm and always works in the highest good for all involved. With that being said, it is energetically detoxifying. It can bring up old, stuck emotions that weren’t fully processed so that they can finally be released. You may feel tired and drained following a session, or hyper- stimulated and have difficulty sleeping. Every person (and session) is different. After a training or session, I always recommend drinking lots of water, getting plenty of rest, and being gentle on yourself.

the results

“I am so beyond ecstatic! I struggle with self doubt and try to remove myself and just be a conduit. I will no longer doubt my connection to source energy now. I know that Reiki flows through me in the most beautiful way possible for healing. I am so eternally grateful for my attunement and the opportunity to share this with others.”

The most exciting thing so far has been that each time I practice, I feel the Reiki energy with greater strength and effectiveness. That’s also helped to boost my confidence in my own abilities. Now I can feel the heat in my hands almost immediately after setting the intention to begin using Reiki. I am looking forward to taking more classes with you and expanding my practice.

I have studied with Erin on many subjects. What I love is that I know under her training, I will learn every detail true to fact. She instructs with passion and excitement. She’s always willing to help and answer all questions with no judgment. Anyone studying with her will walk away feeling comfortable and stronger in their own practice.

I have been aware of Reiki for at least 20 years.  I never thought it was the right time to get certified.  All of that changed after talking to Erin Lento. Her passion for Reiki is contagious!  This year, I completed her Level I and Level II training.  Each session was POWERFUL and UNIQUE.  I can honestly say that I use Reiki everyday.  It has become a part of my spiritual practice and life.  Erin made the training fun, fulfilling and kept it safe and sacred.  I highly recommend Erin to anyone interested in deepening their experience with Reiki.  Whether you want to give Reiki in a formal or informal way, take Erin's training!
