Treating animals with Reiki

[Mystic Wolf]

TREATING ANIMALS

Animals respond really well to Reiki – they have no preconceived ideas of the energy and it can be a good confidence boost to yourself to give Reiki to a pet. Animals need less Reiki treatment time and you will find that after a few minutes they may walk away as they have received enough energy.

You can treat a pet by placing one hand on the head and the other on the chest area – this will reassure and steady the animal.

Let the Reiki flow and keep the same position as the energy will find its way to where it is needed most. Some animals will be happy to receive up to an hours treatment but

Most will be happy with 3-5 minutes.

If you want to treat an animal that is not tame you can sit near it, hold your hands out and intend that the Reiki flow from your hands to the animal.

The same applies when sending Reiki to a bird that is not tame – sit as close to the animal as you can and hold your hands out intending that it receive the energy.

 

GROUNDING

Once you have completed your healing you must ground yourself. Simply clasp your hands together and say to yourself “I am grounded.” Another grounding technique that you can practice each day on yourself is to sit down in a chair with your feet firmly on the floor. Close your eyes and visualize tree roots coming out of the soles of your feet and going down into the center of the earth. Visualize a white light coming in through the top of your head, traveling down through each chakra and then exiting through the roots into the earth. Allow this cycle to happen for as long as you feel necessary and then open your eyes.
