Accredited Online Energy Healing Courses to Awaken the Healer Within
Welcome to the Academy of Energy Healing — a leading provider of internationally accredited online energy healing certification courses.
Founded in 2015 by renowned spiritual teacher and energy healer Ahtayaa Leigh, the Academy is home to The Golden Ray Initiations — a unique healing system that expands beyond the traditional 7-chakra system, into the full Golden Merkaba Rainbow Body energetic architecture, guiding you from limitation to wholeness through the power of sacred geometry, light, sound, and profound guided activation.
Our mission is to empower conscious individuals to become confident, heart-centered energy healers through accredited, transformational training rooted in spiritual wisdom, practical technique, and embodied experience.
With over a decade of service and thousands of students around the world, our courses are internationally accredited by the International Institute for Complementary Therapists (IICT), making graduates eligible for professional insurance in 39 countries — including the U.S., U.K., Canada, and Australia.
Under Ahtayaa’s expert guidance, you’ll receive not only practical skills, but also energetic activations and soul-aligned teachings that unlock your inner healer and guide you toward profound spiritual embodiment.
At the Academy, we teach that healing is not something you learn — it’s something you remember.
Our vision is a world where awakened healers use their innate power to uplift consciousness, support holistic well-being, and live in alignment with Cosmic Law — the divine blueprint of peace, harmony, and sacred service.
If you feel the call to activate your soul’s gifts and step into your highest service, we welcome you to explore our accredited programs and begin your journey.
What Our Students Say
Taking this Energy Healing Certification course with Ahtayaa has been a truly transformative experience. It’s absolutely incredible value for money — not only do you receive in-depth knowledge and clear guidance, but also plenty of practical exercises that help you integrate everything on a deep level.
The meditations, activations, and healing sessions included are powerful and soul-expanding, often feeling like a teleportation to the next level of consciousness and personal evolution.
Ahtayaa's energy is so warm, wise, and nurturing — you feel genuinely supported and uplifted throughout the entire journey. I’m walking away from this course with clarity, confidence, and a renewed connection to my own healing abilities.
I highly recommend it to anyone ready to step into their true power as a healer.
With deep gratitude, Anna

Heartfelt Video Testimonial
I'm so blessed to share with you that my energy healing practices have taken off! 🚀
I completed my certification at the end of last year. Shortly after, I completed a yoga instructor certification.
Within two weeks, I was invited to host a healing space as a practitioner in a healing house within my community. There are many vendors that host space there from massage therapists to a yoga studio to children's theatre to ME!
I am moving forward with my plans to perform guided meditations, chakra balancing sessions, grounding sessions and one on one yoga! I incorporate oils, sounds, visuals and my love.
I cannot express to you enough of how you have changed my life and the trickle effect that is having.
Thank you! You are my light!

I can not express into words how absolutely amazing this journey has been!
This is a lifetime of learning involved and I feel that this is just the start.
I am turning non-believers into believers and the believers into amazed! Every person I work on, I learn something new.
I am constantly re-reading my notes and lessons that I have from this course as now when I apply it really is hitting home!
I have tried everything from nursing, to neuro-sciences and psychology. Nothing ever seemed to really fit.....but this is where I belong, this is what I was meant to do!!!!
Much love to you!

This has been an amazing and challenging course to take. Previously, I had some familiarity and training in energy work, but this course has broadened my experience and opened me up to things I previously had mental blocks in.
It has challenged my thinking and allowed me to progress as a vessel of healing.
I am grateful for this course and excited about the future as I apply it to my life and future business!

Ahtayaa, This was truly an amazing experience that seems to have been orchestrated by the Universe. I really enjoyed the overall theme of energy healing, with the subfocus on the different modalities. I feel so ready to do this now!
I also really enjoyed the embedded videos that were available also on Youtube. They gave quick, practical reference to what was studied. I especially loved the multicultural, multimodality, multispiritual aspect of each lesson. It was so nice to see all of the cultures who practice energy healing (ok, like, all cultures) represented and mentioned.
I have been attuned now in Reiki level one and two, but really feel like these resources will allow me to practice energy healing in a manner that seems more intuitive and not as constricting, pulling from each of the modalities that were studied.
Thank you for providing this detailed overall umbrella course that somehow digs deeply into each, while still giving an overall picture of the topic. How'd you do that?! Amazing.
Thank you Ahtayaa for being a conduit of healing and light within me! I appreciate you and the Divine Spirit that brought you to this work!
Heather Figueroa
I am so grateful and honored to have had Ahtayaa as my instructor!
Every thing she says, and teaches resonates with my own heart.
I truly feel that I am now ready to start a business as an energy healer.
I feel I have been provided solid, ethical training in this course. It's been more than just learning, it's also fun! I've loved every second of it.
Ahtayaa is very easy to reach and responds to any questions, and it looks like there are quite a few people enrolled! Yet she makes time for everyone and spreads love and light throughout the world.
Thank you Ahtayaa! You've shared your wisdom, and also reminded me of my own light and strength. I love you dearly for all you've given me. I can't thank you enough, but I will go forth and honor you by spreading as much love and light as possible wherever and anywhere I can.
All My love, Carey

Ahtayaa, I am so grateful to you and your soul, as well as those whom helped you create this masterpiece.
Like many healers, I myself have had a rough life in order to realize the beauty that lied dormant inside myself. I felt guided to your course by my Angels and it truly has saved my life.
I've never felt so truly part of something where I know I can prosper just being who I truly am and helping heal and guide people into their light. I could not read your information fast enough!
I wanted to know it all and relish every word. I was healing my friends and family before I found your certification course, and thanks to your information, I am more confident and well rounded within my practice.
I plan on healing as many souls that will allow me, with a proper exchange, of course.
My ambitions are high and my goals keep expanding. One day I hope to open my own meditation clinics all over the world with energy healing classes and spiritual lessons. I feel it. I feel it is exactly the right time for all of us to gain popularity within the worlds culture. Thank you. Thank you.

What a wonderful course, there is so much information but in manageable chunks.
I realised I had already been doing energy healing but without realising it.
I can not wait to start my practice as a energy healer. Throughout this course I have created a pendulum chart, lesson plans and created my own Chakra healing meditation. So I now feel completely ready to start my journey as an Energy Healer.
This course has given me so many different areas to start and resources to look into. This is a great new and exciting start to my energy healer life.
Sharon Key
I just loved this course. Each module was filled with incredible information...and a lot of it. Having quizzes, assignments and homework reinforced all of the teachings.
I loved that I was not only able learn information, but to be an active part in this course through the practice sessions. I feel as if I have received so so much more than I imagined. I am grateful for that.
There are modules that I have gone over several times so that I may absorb the material fully. I would be honored to receive a Reiki Certification. The attunement was beautiful. Thank you for it!
