Animal Reiki
Using energy to heal the animals in your life
By Elizabeth Fulton & Kathleeen Prasad
Ulysses Press 2006
I have always had an interest in our bodies ability to heal itself. Many times, we hear about the power of meditation. I know a few people that are Reiki practitioners, but really didn’t understand it completely. While searching for various books, I came across this one. It was intriguing so I added it to my collection.
The authors of this book take you on a journey. First, they introduce us to Reiki. This unique healing energy that doesn’t require any special equipment or the need to touch the client. If you are unfamiliar with Reiki, the term translates to “universal life energy”. It embraces the concept that the universe transmits healing energy.
Animal reiki is accessible for everyone and easy to learn. Like meditation you need to learn to quiet your mind and sense the energy that is around you. You do need to practice daily. One of the things that I like about Reiki is that it can not be used to harm.
The authors do provide a detailed description of how to use healing with animals. There is a detailed description of how to perform a treatment on specific animals. It is important to recognize that in Reiki you do not have to touch the animal.
An aspect of this book that I enjoyed was the stories that the authors shared of the personal experiences. Both authors do work at shelters and some of the stories include: “Reiki Calms the ‘Uncalmable’”, which talks about helping a deaf Dalmatian. Or the story of “Rose’s Reiki Miracle”, a cat was spared from being euthanized and reunited with her owner.
Working at the rescue farm this book inspired me to seek out a Reiki instructor. Interested in more about Reiki book a consultation. If you are interested in healing energy and animals I highly recommend this book.
