I recently completed Level 1 & 2 in Reiki Healing, as well as my Reiki Master course at Healing Hands, Reiki School India. I learnt so much during this course, and many of the teachings added to my knowledge from prior yogic studies. I believe this course perfectly compliments yoga and meditation practices, for those who wish to deepen their knowledge. I was challenged mentally and emotionally during this course. As well as learning about Reiki Healing, my own healing journey deepened and expanded. Thank you Praveen ji, for your teachings. I am very grateful for your patience, wisdom, and support throughout the course! Namaste ji 🙏🏻

I just finished Reiki 1&2. I regretted my choice of location when I was driving down the curvy road to get here, Rishikesh, since I was getting nauseous. But soon after the course began, I could see that it was worth it. Master Praveen goes far deeper than the technicalities of the Reiki. He teaches spiritual wisdom. It was truly enlightening. Through many years of practicing meditation, I thought I knew enough, but there was more to learn. Also, he is very disciplined. I learned a lot. On top, he is truly a high level yogi though he looks ordinary man in outer appearance. Being in his aura was immensely healing by itself. He has very strong soothing refreshing mother-earth-like healing energy. By far his energy was the best of the best I experienced of teachers in recent years. I don’t believe in such thing as Guru. After being taught by him, I now see what Guru means. I can only say I was truly lucky and blessed to meet him, I thank the Universe it brought me here. If I get to take Reiki master course or any other course he offers which come in my needs, my choice will always be Master Praveen. Big thanks to him. I also thank Mr. Rana, who served the best ginger tea every time course begins. You can bring some lemon with you if you like lemon ginger honey like me.

I am Atrika from Kolkata. Recently, I went to Rishikesh for my Reiki course, and I ended up at one of the best Reiki schools in India. I would like to sincerely thank my Reiki Master, Praveen Sir Ji, for teaching us such beautiful and powerful techniques to heal ourselves as well as others. Along with the teachings, he also guided us through the chakra balancing process. I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to learn and experience Reiki in a genuine and meaningful way.

I recently completed Reiki Levels 1 and 2 with Reiki Master Praveen Badoni in Rishikesh and had a wonderful experience. The six-day course provided a great balance of theory and practical application, with plenty of opportunities to ask questions and gain hands-on experience. Praveen is patient, knowledgeable, highly experienced, and authentic in his teaching approach, creating a supportive environment for learning and personal growth. One aspect I didn't expect was the amount of self-reflection involved, but this became an important part of the journey and helped me become more open to the practice. I particularly enjoyed learning to feel energy in my hands and experiencing Reiki while working with others. I now feel confident to continue my Reiki practice independently and am excited to see what the 21 days of self-healing will bring. I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking for an authentic Reiki training experience in Rishikesh.

Each day was a journey of self-discovery—I learned something new about myself that I had never realized before. This course has been genuinely life-changing for me. Praveen Sir made every session engaging, insightful, and easy to follow, creating a very comfortable and supportive learning environment. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to deepen their understanding and grow personally. A truly wonderful experience and a great place to learn.

Learning Reiki from Praveen Sir has been a great honor for me. He is a highly experienced Reiki Master with deep knowledge and a genuine passion for teaching. During the course, I learned many valuable techniques and insights that have helped me both personally and spiritually. What touched me the most was the healing I experienced within myself. Parts of me that had remained unhealed for a long time finally began to heal through his guidance and the practice of Reiki. His teachings have brought positive changes to my life, and I am truly grateful for this transformative journey. I wholeheartedly recommend Praveen Sir to anyone who wishes to learn Reiki from a knowledgeable, compassionate, and dedicated Master.

I had a wonderful experience at Rishikesh Reiki Healing School. The training was highly professional, with Praveen ji who created a supportive and welcoming learning environment. One of the most valuable aspects of the course was gaining a deeper understanding of energy and how it influences our daily lives, emotions, relationships, and overall well-being. The course was also very well structured, with a clear progression from foundational concepts to more advanced practices. I highly recommend Rishikesh Reiki Healing School to anyone seeking authentic Reiki training, personal growth, and a deeper connection with energy healing.
