Michelle's Usui Lineage

The Usui Lineage refers to the chain of Reiki practitioners that trace their lineage back to Mikao Usui, the founder of Reiki. Each Reiki practitioner who has received their training from a teacher, and that teacher has been trained by someone else, ultimately traces their lineage back to Usui. This lineage is considered important in the Reiki community, as it helps ensure the integrity and authenticity of the Reiki practice.
