About Annie:
Reiki meditation is the groundwork for our spirits, preparing us to speak the language of animals and nature, the language of energy. It reminds us that we are nature, too.
What is Reiki Meditation?
Reiki (ray-key) translates to “spiritual energy.” To me, this is the energy of God’s unconditional and infinite Love. It is what gives us our power to experience life filled with compassion & service.
Reiki is also a system of healing meditation that welcomes us to step into contemplation, relaxation and restoration. The Usui Reiki Ryoho (Healing Method) has uses meditation techniques such as visualization, breathing and palm healing and all are built on the Five Precepts. These practices calm our minds, invite is to reflect, release and step into the compassion of our truest self. I find that exploring Reiki has only deepened my faith and made the path more vibrant. In a time when we keep trying to separate everything, Reiki practice calls us back, again and again, to remind us how important it is that we remember our intricate and radiant connections with Love & Creation.
So, Then, What is Reiki with Animals?
“Reiki energy is the light & frequency of God’s unconditional love that dwells in all things.
Animal Reiki Meditation supports us in connecting with and cultivating this frequency inside and out. In this space, healing, remembering, clarity, purpose, relaxation, release, ease, joy, gratitude and compassion flow.
We honor animals and nature by inviting them in to our meditations and to bask in the restorative glow of unconditional love with us. Here, all everything is possible.”
Through diligent Reiki practice, we can nurture our inner, spiritual lives and extend that compassion into support for all animals on their soul journeys. It is a beautiful experience and a true blessing.
