Reiki & Your
Companion Animals Animals are the greatest teachers; without being overbearing, they seem to show us ways of progressing on our natural paths with kindness, strength and humor. It's only fitting that we reciprocate in kind. The Reiki healing system is perfect for this, as it carries with it a respectful acknowledgement of animals' expansive capabilities. Masters of energetic integration, animals intuitively understand that we all exist on physical, emotional, mental and spiritual level simultaneously, making then naturals at accepting Reiki into their lives. Animals have always assured me that using intuition is an effective tool for treating and re-balancing health. Intuition is based upon trust, another element that animals teach. The focus of this workshop will be to help the Reiki practitioner develop & learn: 1. Techniques to build trust and communication with their companion animals. 2. How and When to give Reiki to animals 3. Specific Meridian lines and acupressure points to aid the healing process 4. Reiki for shelter/rescue animals and the old and dying. Cost: $65.00 includes handout with charts. Prerequisite: Open to all Reiki Practitioners (please bring your highest Reiki level certificate).

Reiki I practitioners who received their Reiki I attunement from another teacher are required to bring their Reiki I certificate. Observations during clinic will determine how many clinics will be required for you to continue to Reiki II. Plan to set aside time to attend Reiki I student clinics in preparation for Reiki II. Participation in Reiki I clinic will give you the opportunity to give and receive Reiki with other Reiki I practitioners, to share stories, strengthen your skills of observation and receive further guidance from the teacher.
