- Step-by-Step Guidance: Receive detailed guidance for conducting successful Animal Reiki sessions.
- Practitioner Code of Ethics: Get an overview of the Animal Reiki Practitioner Code of Ethics and understand why these principles are crucial to your practice.
- Holding Space vs. Doing: Grasp the difference between holding space for an animal and “doing” an energy treatment “to” an animal, and why this distinction matters.
Get ready to connect deeply with animals and create transformational experiences!
After Completion of This Class, You Will Be Able To:
- Embrace challenging moments with compassion
- Ease the suffering of animals you love or witness, while respecting their agency and independence
- Practice mindfulness of the gifts your animals give you every day

Course Requirements:
- In-Person Participation: Students must participate in all sessions. Attendance is required for certification. (If you can't attend a session, make up sessions can be arranged, $50/hour)
- Tuesday evening classes 6-9pm are in St. Catharines and Saturday morning classes 9am-noon will be at the Welland SPCA.
- Animal Companions: Students must have animals to practice with daily. A variety of animals is preferable (ask neighbors and friends to support you!), but a minimum of 1 or 2 of your own is needed. Reach out to Teresa if you need help with this.
