An Overview of Self Development Courses offered through the
International Association of Reiki
You are invited to work with Mari to help achieve a balance of body, mind and spirit. She believes that awareness and participation in promoting this balance in everyday life is a key to change. In this way an individual can be a living example for other people.
Our association is designed to support the individual's journey back to wholeness. The vehicles for this work are Gateway to the Heart, and the newest online Mentoring course "Reiki for the Soul" which will start in 2007. The courses and programs that are offered support the body, mind and spirit. They are considered primarily self developmental and are taught by the association's founder and director, Mari Hall. Gateway to the Heart
A course for remembering ourselves through our chakra system
This course that can literally be life changing for you and our world, for as you change all life changes with you and for you, literally for all of us. We are part of the magnificent web of life.
We can think of ourselves as a tube that has little holes in it like a flute. The holes that are covered or open dictate the overall sound that the flute makes. Likewise our open and closed chakras create the overall sense of self that we present to the rest of the world. "We all have our own music made possible by how we have created our instrument" What is blocked off can neither receive nor express. In order to make different sounds, we want to consciously control the opening and closing of each chakra.
Every aspect of the course has been designed to bring you towards seeing and identifying your unconscious behavior and the ways you blocked your energy. This will give you opportunity to make creative change. The choice always with you; In order for us to make the natural spiritual move past our unconscious behavior to loving and respecting each other we must learn to trust in the truth of our own being and not be dependent on another's opinion of us. For the real power of divine action on earth can only manifest in the context of a community of individuals each of who is sufficiently secure in his/her own spiritual identity.
Gateway to the Heart is an in depth course is tailored to the individual group and country it is taught in. Ideally it is taught over nine months with one course a month. It has been taught over two years with Mari facilitating once every six months and the group meeting in between. The group is given individual tasks to complete before each meeting.
There is a Gateway taster that is done over two weekends. We work with the lower chakras the first weekend and the higher ones the second weekend. This is an excellent introduction to deeper work that can be done and certainly puts people in touch with their own blockages. The taster is an excellent tool for ongoing work.

Reiki for the Soul Online Course
The Courseincludes the use of three tools especially written and/or developed by Mari to move though various doorways in our lives.
- The book "Reiki for the Soul, doorways to harmony -the 11th doorway".
- Doorways for My Soul Journal.
The journal contains a series of brief evocative essays with three to five pages of lines for you to write your own thoughts. A small section at the end of the lined section is set up so that after a defined period of time (weeks, month, or year), you are able to review what was written in the past and comment about it in the present.
- Doorways for My Soul Focus Cards.
Each card is designed with the word from each essay's heading, and a reference number that is referenced in the journal. You can use these cards in several ways. You can ask a question, pick one card, and then look up the journal entry to read the essay and write your thoughts. You can use one of the layouts (spreads) included in the journal and information card in the deck, think about how the words apply in your situation or read the essays, and/or write in your journals. Of course, you can also design your own card layout and determine its meaning.
Each participant in the online course will receive a variety of journaling exercises monthly through a special forum on Mari's Wisechoices web site. Mari will provide personal feedback that would include a fresh perspective and a journaling exercise specifically directed to the individual and situation. You determine how often the interaction would be as you are booking so many hours of mentoring time with Mari personally.
Please note at this time the materials are the pre publication process. The actual starting date of this special online mentoring program will be announced when the materials are available.
