ICRT Animal Reiki I & II

Service Description

(Prerequisite – Anyone with Reiki II or higher from any lineage) The Animal Reiki energy received in this course is a unique Reiki energy given to us as a special life force energy for the animals. The Placements given in the ICRT Animal Reiki I & II class will attune and unify the Animal Reiki symbol with each student’s existing Reiki energy and symbols and allow the practitioner to channel the Animal Reiki energy. This course includes practitioner skills, tools, and techniques needed to share Reiki with the animals. It is a combination of lecture, discussion, and practice and is open to all Reiki lineages. The information and techniques for both levels include: - The history of ICRT Animal Reiki. - Animal Reiki defined and discussion of priorities for animals. - An Usui Reiki symbols refresher. - The Animal Reiki symbol—The Tree of Life. - Animal Reiki I & II Placements. - Animal Reiki techniques for in-person and distant sessions, including preparation exercises and healing technique meditations. - Discussion on giving Animal Reiki full sessions in person or live online, including session preparation, receiving the animal’s consent for Reiki, various Animal Reiki session environments, and developing your own Animal Reiki style. - Review of common healing issues for animals. - Distant Animal Reiki techniques for single animals or groups, candidates for distant Reiki, and how to use photos, written notes, Facetime, or live webcams for distant sessions. - How to give Reiki to many species of animals. - Balancing empathy and compassion, compassion fatigue and practitioner self-care, and end-of-life support, whether natural death or compassionate euthanasia. - Practice time working with animals in person or online. - Review of how to create a thriving Animal Reiki practice. - The ICRT Animal Reiki I & II Manual, authored by Colleen Benelli, Sioux Strong, Robyn Benelli and Pamela Allen-LeBlanc. - A class certificate. - A one year Reiki News Magazine subscription. While practice takes place during the class, it is expected that you will set aside additional time to practice after the class is completed. This additional practice is necessary to completely gain the experience and confidence you need to use the Animal Reiki training.
