As I mentioned before, my dog Louis has Hip Dysplasia and is sometimes in a lot of pain (See previous post Reiki for pets)
When I took my Reiki level I course we were taught that it’s important to give healing as much as possible and the more you do it the stronger the energy becomes.
All living things can benefit from healing including animals and plants. They say that animals in particular are very receptive to Reiki, whoever ‘they’ are. I’ve been told that once animals receive enough healing they often get up and walk off!
And it’s true. Sometimes I think Louis actually jumps on my lap and asks me for Reiki, in his own cute little way, and when I start he immediately falls into a deep sleep and snores his head off – and so does our other dog Alfie! Awww. But there is one session that will stay with me forever, it was a very emotional experience…
Louis slept in my room one night. As he cuddled up next to me I took advantage of the opportunity to give him some Reiki, without any distractions. For some reason this time I felt very emotional and tearful, it was as if I had really connected to his energy and felt his sadness. After the treatment Louis slept straight through, and so did I.
The next day I thought no more of the treatment until something amazing happened. I threw a toy for Alfie, and Louis actually ran after it! I think the last time he had run around in the garden was when he was a puppy. It was incredible to watch, therefore I had to share the story.
Truly amazing.
Interesting story!
Well, this one really got to me…..
I also suffer with Hip Dysplasia and can tell you exactly how much it hurts, 15 years ago at 19 the doctors on the NHS tried to convince me to have both hips replaced, change my lifestyle and go through 2 years of physio to resolve the problem. Obviously i refused and after finding a trained chiropracter (by sheer chance) in Marbella who is also a homeopathic doctor and a strong believer in alternative medicine, i can tell you that im feeling fantastic. I now only have minimal pain and have learned how to read the signs to keep myself as pain free as possible, maybe i’ll have some Reiki too, the way i see it, it can only help!
Postive thinking is the first step to all healing, no matter what type of pain you suffer!
Keep up the good work!
