Midnight the Kitten has really taken her Reiki practice to heart, helping out the other animals at the Tomah Reiki Retreat. We were thrilled to be able to capture her in action in a photograph or two. Here is what we caught her doing…

If you’ve been to a farm recently chances are you have encountered a fly. In my work with Joy, a young Morgan horse, I certainly did! I observed Joy in the pasture swishing her tail and stomping her hooves to shake them off. I saw myself: impatient with the fly, irritated by the never ending buzz in my ear, swatting at it, just trying to get a little peace. I could insert many different words for “fly”, of course.

I had spent the year before this workshop reading all about the International House Of Reiki, looking at their website, using their meditations and being inspired by their blogs. It felt like something magical and yet unbelievable that I would be going to the Cotswolds to meet Frans Stiene in the October of this year. The wonderful Kathleen and Leah of the Shelter Animal Reiki Association (SARA) had booked my place with Frans the year before.

Julie and I went to a rescue shelter for horses to do some animal reiki yesterday. Julie is passionate about horses, and regularly volunteers there. I wanted to learn more about animal reiki, so I went along with her. We picked the best day to go out!! Rain + wind.

Kathleen Prasad interviews Gail Pope from BrightHaven Animal Retreat for the International House of Reiki. Gail talks about the benefits of working with Reiki and animals. Kathleen Prasad is a graduate of the International House of Reiki and is a renowned animal Reiki practitioner and teacher.

Welcome Chai! A new baby goat has come to grace us with her presence. She is the latest addition to the Tomah Reiki Retreat in the Blue Mountains, Australia. If you come and take a class at the Tomah Reiki Retreat in Australia you will be sure to meet her.
