Reiki has opened up so many new worlds, for me, by living and understanding the precepts. Recognizing that a soul is a soul, and we are all one. Every being on our planet is connected. Soul to soul, heart to heart, we are all one! I have always felt this since I was a little girl, but not deeply living it, everyday.

When tigers enter your meditation. It’s so funny how our minds work sometimes. How memories of heartbreak and hurt, that we’ve forgotten about or purposefully bury, resurface when we least expect them. Also how past events we believe we have worked through, remain inside us, silently, until our soul is ready to release them back to the universe.

Just returned home from the CARE foundation. A exotic animal rescue in Apopka Florida. I will never forget my Reiki experiences here, the life lessons the animals have taught me, and the beautiful people and animals I connected with.

Over my years of practicing Reiki I have collected many animal and human friends and clients. Here’s a nod to my journey told in images. Thank you to all of those who have allowed me to share my love of reiki.

This morning I met up with a little snake slithering in the grass near me so I decided to share Reiki with him. I never shared Reiki with a snake before but for some reason I felt a connection with him and I asked him if would like to sit with me and meditate for few minutes

Out of all my Reiki certifications I am the most proud of this! I am so excited to become a SARA teacher too, and bring Reiki into more shelters and rescues with the knowledge of Kathleen’s teachings. No other class has changed my practice and the way I will teach my animal reiki classes, the way this has.

World Animal Reiki Day falls on February 5th. For me, “World Animal Reiki Day,” started before work, spending a beautiful morning, sharing Reiki with my dog, Jasmine, a friendly herd of deer in my backyard, and with my wonderful animal friends at Catskill Animal Sanctuary. I saw many animals at CAS this morning, including sheep, goats, cows, and even a donkey, Daisy, but I wanted to share two very special sessions with you today.

I’m so excited to share, that I just received my Certificate of Completion for the Animal Reiki Workshop, with Kathleen Prasad, Reiki Master/Teacher. Kathleen has practiced Animal Reiki for over 15 years, Co-founded SARA (Shelter Animal Reiki Association), authored several books on animal Reiki, and travels the globe teaching and speaking about all things Reiki

This is such a great article. Worth the read! I have been interested in Reiki and a more holistic approach to health and wellness for years, so this was so exciting for me to see that more and more hospitals, and professionals in the medical community are recognizing the benefits of Reiki for their patientsand staff.

First, let me just say, I have always loved animals. All types of animals. I have always felt a special connection with them. I have always had a dog or two, in my life since I was a baby. As a young girl, I also had a rabbit, ducks, fish, seahorses, and a couple of little turtles. Oh yeah, and I am one of those people who stop for squirrels, groundhogs, opossums, turtles, and other wild-life to cross the street.
