Thanks for the beautiful reminder-International Center for Reiki Training

The secret art of inviting happiness
The miraculous medicine of all diseases
Just for today do not be angry
Do not worry and be filled with gratitude
Devote yourself to your work and be kind to people
Every morning and evening join your hands in prayer
pray these words to your heart
and chant these words with your mouth

-Usui Mikao

Knowing these small things not only help to assist your animal during their session but this also helps to visualize what that should look like. 30 mins straight reiki is a lot for an animal but the animal will lead the session. Animals come in and out of a session multiple times and that’s perfectly normal.

Did you know that Animal Reiki can look different than Reiki on humans? Here are some of the biggest differences....

🌕✨ Get ready for a celestial treat tonight

the Super Blue Sturgeon Moon is shining bright! 🌟

This unique full moon combines several astronomical phenomena:

1. **Supermoon**: The moon is closer to Earth in its orbit, making it appear larger and more luminous.

2. **Blue Moon**: The second full moon in a single calendar month, making it a rare event.

But why "Sturgeon"? 🌊

The name "Sturgeon Moon" comes from Native American tribes who found that this time of year was ideal for catching sturgeon, a large fish found in the Great Lakes and other major bodies of water. The August full moon was a signal for the peak of the sturgeon catch, a tradition that has passed down through the centuries.

How to Know When to Say Goodbye To Your Pet - SevenPonds Blog Read our interview with Dr. Dani McVety,the founder of Lap of Love, in which she talks about how to say goodbye to your pet at the right time.

We love our friends over at Licking County Dog Shelter and Adoption Center and love that our closest buds at Taitan's Toy Box did this. I knew Titan and the rest of the boys would be on it. Honored to have you guys so close to the heart of Little Lotus.

❤️We love Lemmy Beau and the entire TTB family! Lemmy was a rescue from Tennessee who came with a spotty background. Working with him for the last few years has brought so much closure for those things for Lemmy and has allowed him to feel safe in his vulnerability and communicate to both mom and dad.

I got to see my Auntie Nikki this week and had a great Reiki session! It was wonderful 💜Reiki has helped me to process what I need to and have the best life. Letting go of where I came from, what I have been through past or present and all that comes with life has been a gift that I only dreamed of.

Thanks to my Angel Brothers Chief and Dio T, my parents have learned how important it is to help pets be able to process in a healthy way to feel free to be out best. For me, reiki with Auntie Nikki does wonders. She gets it too and I trust her to help me through anything like my family.

Thank you Auntie Nikki for loving me and sharing your talent of Reiki.

Love Lemmy Beau

Tori and her 3rd eye princess crown placement during one of her sessions. Her crown consisted of 3 stones Moonstone,Rose Quartz and Obsidian for this queen. This placement can range from 3 to 5 stones.

MOONSTONE: Has a tangible connection to the moon's magic of giving protection, wisdom, harvesting passive ad relaxing energy, and encouraging inner growth and strength

ROSE QUARTZ: This stone is all about every relationship in our life including the one with ourselves.

OBSIDIAN: This highly protective grounding stone connects to our root chakra, obsidian aids in establishing a strong foundation and connection to the Earth's energies, fostering a sense of security and balance in one's life.

Tori was surrounded in a full body grid of Sodalyte and Rose Quartz with a four point grid of Volcano Agate. All of these were tools in aiding her Reiki session and private focuses.

Tonight, we celebrate the Full Strawberry Moon! 🌕🍓 This name comes from Native American tribes, marking the time to harvest ripe strawberries. It's a beautiful reminder of nature's cycles and the rich history behind our natural world. As Gottesdiener writes, “Our energy bodies, creative processes, and healing cycles all correspond to the moon's cycles. The moon can serve as a tracker for our dreams, our self-development and more.”

Real-life rainbow bridge coming to Greater Cincinnati dog park to help grieving pet owners The original one is in Lake Lure, North Carolina, and thousands make the trek to see it. So, one Fairfield resident decided, why not bring it to Cincinnati?

Today, on World Pet Memorial Day, we honor the cherished companions who've left paw prints on our hearts. Whether they bounded through fields or curled up by our side, their love stays with us forever. 🐾

Take a moment to remember and celebrate the joy they brought into our lives. "

Happy Gemini Season♊️ (May 21st- June 20th)

I had a friend remind me of how intense things can get during this time of year so let’s talk about it .

As we step into the whirlwind of this season, let's embrace the duality that defines us. Yes, we feel things intensely, and sometimes that means our emotions run wild and we're quicker to anger. But remember, without darkness, there can be no light. It's all about harnessing that energy for the better.

This Gemini season is a prime opportunity for us to shed anything that no longer serves us. With determination coursing through our veins, let's tackle the cleansing process head-on. It's time to bid farewell to negativity and toxic environments, whether they're at work or in our personal relationships.

Let's use this season exactly as it was intended Here's to embracing our intense energy and channeling it into positive growth. Happy birthday to all my Geminis! ♊️✨

On Memorial Day, we honor the countless brave men, women and service canines who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. Their courage, sacrifice, and dedication will never be forgotten. Today, we remember and pay tribute to those who gave everything for the freedoms we hold dear.

WHAT IS REIKI AND HOW DOES IT WORK ?

Reiki means universal energy and is a Japanese energy healing method to promote overall well-being and relaxation. During a session, a practitioner puts their hands on or above your body and you may feel heat or tingling coming from their hands.

The predominant form of Reiki practiced worldwide today, also known as Usui reiki, was created by Dr. Mikao Usui in the early 20th century.

Reiki is a complementary or alternative health approach and is used to manage and improve general well-being.

During a Reiki session, the practitioner places their hands directly on you or above you to bring about healing. The belief is that the practitioner can stimulate your body’s natural healing abilities.

Nobody will protect you from your suffering. You can't cry it away or eat it away or starve it away or walk it away or punch it away or even therapy it away. It's just there, and you have to survive it. You have to endure it. You have to live through it and love it and move on and be better for it and run as far as you can in the direction of your best and happiest dreams across the bridge that was built by your own desire to heal. ~Cheryl Strayed

In loving memory of Gus, a spirited canine companion who crossed the rainbow bridge yesterday. Gus was greeted by his brother George at the gate and I’m sure they haven’t stop running since. It was an absolute honor to work with both of you boys. Keep rocking that monster of a smile Gus….
May we forever cherish the beautiful memories Gus brought into each of our lives.

My heart and healing goes out to the family during this difficult time.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....
