Heal Thy-self
Reiki For Animals
Scientific studies have shown how happiness can help heal illnesses and injuries: happy, positive people tend to heal better and faster than miserable, negative people who focus on low energy frequencies.
By offering our pets and animals companions the healing process of Animal Reiki, we give something back to them for all the healing, laughter and love they give us all the time. Animals also have a natural ability to give us Reiki healing too. Horses, dolphins, whales, and even dogs and cats are among some of the most skilled Reiki Masters in the animal kingdom.
Reiki doesn’t usually change the natural order of events. It can’t cure your pet. It simply enhances and accelerate their own healing process, easing pet’s pain, reducing stress and improving their quality of life. Animals love receiving the warm vibrations of Reiki energy and benefit greatly from it by giving them a huge dose of channeled undiluted, unconditional love.
ABOUT ANIMAL REIKI
Heal Thy-Self
What is animal reiki healing?
Reiki works to balance the energy systems of all living things and in doing so allows the bodies to heal themselves. Reiki heals on all levels with people and therefore it will heal on all levels for animals as well.
Whether they are hurting physically, emotionally, mentally, or spiritually, Reiki will get to the core of what needs to be healed quickly, easily, and gently. Animals are much like kids, once they trust you and the energy you are sending to them, they will take it in easily and heal quickly because they are closer to our Divine Source and have memories and abilities that many adult humans have long forgotten.
An animal is always in control of their Reiki session. What does that mean exactly? Instead of forcing an animal to stay in one place, they are encouraged to do what ever they need to do to be comfortable.
This allows the belief system of animals to be more open and filled with many fewer blockages than adults have, therefore the Reiki can flow without hitch and do what it is here to do, heal.
How Can Animals Benefit
Heal Thy-Self
Reiki can effectively address any issue an animal may face
Most pets are ill from picking up the low-frequency energies from their owners. Both pets and wildlife enjoy Reiki and benefit from it. It’s mainly used for physically ill animals but is very beneficial for any animal.
Some of the issues that the Reiki may help with include:
Animal Reiki calms scared, fearful animals
Helps reduce stress, induces relaxation to promote better healing
Great for ferals, wildlife, rescues, “Hard to Reach & Handle” animals
Unblocks the “energy flow blockages” that can slow down pet’s internal healing systems & functions
Energy healing removes energy blocks – creates conditions for “optimum” self-healing
Animal’s energy fields includes spiritual, emotional, mental & physical well being
Animal Reiki is a natural, safe healing tool
Activate Light codes within the heart and DNA
WHY DOES IT WORK
Reiki works well with animals for the same reasons it works for people. Like us, they respond positively to a loving touch and loving intentions. Reiki has principles that come from the universal life force, which is Love, that automatically sets the healing intent as positive, and does not rely on anyone’s belief system to work. Reiki can never cause harm.
Usually the 1st session is a getting to know each other, as the animal begins to understand what takes place. A Reiki session can be a very new experience for them because they are fully in control of how the session goes as the practitioner creates a space where healing can take place.
After the 1st session, everyone understands what takes place during a session and that all the animal had to “do” is relax. Falling asleep is a wonderful side affect. In following sessions, the animal usually relaxes even more allowing them to experience a much deeper healing session.
When to give Reiki to animals?
Physical or mental/emotional. It goes directly to the origin of the problem, even if it is not known, or results from something in the animal’s past, so it can be used in any situation, including shelter/rescue animals whose pasts are not known.
Reiki can do no harm and will not give more to the recipient than they are open to receive. It is not something “done” to the animal; the animal will accept as much energy as he/she is comfortable with.
When they are ill, to support the healing process
When they have been through a trauma
When they seem depressed
When they have behavior issues
When you’re not sure exactly what the problem is
Animal’s energy fields includes spiritual, emotional, mental & physical well being
When they’re dying, to bring peace and calm
Different types of Reiki
With Distant Reiki you don’t need to be near the animal. It can be performed from any distance. Some practitioners do something called ‘Beaming Reiki’, where they connect with the animal from a safe distance until they get used to it, then slowly move closer.
You can do Reiki with your hands hovering over the animal’s body, which some cats and dogs are more comfortable with than hands-on treatment.
A Reiki healing session for your pet
Animals are very open to the distance healing energy of Reiki, and many animals/pets give Reiki to their pet parents on a daily basis. Using Reiki with pets, no matter what types of prescribed drug therapies and any other programs your pet may be on, Reiki can work side-by-side naturally with anything your vet or other pet care professionals may be utilizing. Reiki can never causes harm.
Reiki Helps Pets Own Healing Powers
Through Animal Reiki healing, we can potentially accelerate your pets own healing processes, ease their pain, reduce stress and improve or help to continue their quality of life. Long distance energy healing helps fearful and scared animals calm down and we can help reduce some of the issues that relate to the fears and anxieties that bring on the stress these animals feel. Even if you can’t get your pet into a carrier, we can help with long distance energy healing and is often a great first step towards getting very timid and fearful animals into better care.
How many treatments will my pet need?
There is no limit to the number of Reiki sessions they can have as long as they give permission and are comfortable with the session. The animals will generally move away or show their intention when done. This is a therapy for them to have throughout life as part of their overall well-being.
If in severe health condition or extremely stressed and traumatized a daily session can create profound change. Usually a session every week or so is recommended.
