Animal Reiki Healer’s perspective :Any form of energy healing requires both the reciever and the medium to have an approachable attitude towards one another. The subject needs to be willing to improve their condition and receptive towards to the healing process. From the spiritual perspective, the subject or clients soul must be ready for the reformation. On the contrary, the healer or   practitioner must be free too, of any prejudice or biases towards the subject. Healing work originates from an open and loving heart. The heart chakra of the practitioner must be cleansed, charged and radiating with unconditional love, for gentle flow of Reiki. So both the subject  and the practitioner can receive the divine healing energy, that is Reiki.

There are two important aspects of animal reiki without which successful healing may not be impossible. First, is the intention of the practitioner and second, is the acceptance of the animal to receive reiki.

Ways to Ensure Effective Healing

Success of any form of healing or therapy largely depends on its effectiveness in dealing with the issue or problem at hand. Effective Healing Brings About Heaps Of Happiness. A holistic approach is much required to gain best possible results with Animal Reiki.

For example one must also take into account the diet of the animals since it is crucial to healing. If the digestive system is irritated or immunity is low, even after balancing the animal’s energy, the problem will return back quickly. So their diet needs to be taken care of by their owner, as a practitioner you can educate them about this as the success of healing depends on their diet.

Environmental factors leading to stress or fear also may reduce the effect of reiki. For example if there is a persistent threat or discomfort to the animal at home or in their immediate environment then that issue needs to be tackled as well. This may be also prevalent in the case of adopted animals which may have anxiety of being in a new environment or trust issues, until changes are made in the environment to make them feel loved and safe, Reiki alone may not be able to help.

Since animals are good absorbers of energy and pets especially dogs and cats at home that spend much time with their guardians may also have emotions transferred upon them through their owner or guardian. So in this case reiki may also be provided to the owner or the guardian.

Sometimes there may be triggers associated with a former traumatic event, like a road accident or any other accident. In such cases it’s important to educate the owner about the triggers and that those should be avoided to ensure effective reiki healing with least rate of relapse.
