Extra tip on Reiki for Beginners: Preparing the Pet to receive Reiki
Allow the animal to come closer to you, giving it the freedom to assume the best position, especially if you don’t have contact with it. Make yourself available.
Bend down or sit on the floor so that he feels more secure and perceives you as another, more receptive “animal.
He will probably smell you, allow him to do so. Begin petting the animal (if he allows it) to begin to bring about a relaxation in him.
Avoid looking into the dogs’ eyes, they may feel intimidated and get into a defensive position.
Whenever possible look into the cats’ eyes, as they communicate a lot through them.
Make the opening by inviting the accompanying egregore of light.
Apply Reiki on the pet as you have learned;
End the application by affirming your wish to the universe, releasing you and the pet into your life, and thanking the whole egregore of light with your words.
