One of the most difficult parts of animal companionship is the transition at the end of their life. It can feel stressful, sad, and confusing. Caregivers always want to do what is best for their animals, which can present them with questions and difficulties in creating a plan. Luckily, Reiki can support this process and what has become more common is for Reiki practitioners to give Reiki before, during, and after an animal’s transition.

Reiki can help with every animal’s end-of-life circumstances, such as a life-threatening injury or old age. Animal Reiki energy and techniques provide animal Reiki practitioners with the tools, skills, and energy to guide the process and help the animal and caregiver during this difficult time. The practitioner allows Reiki to guide the caregiver in the hard decisions they need to make. As a practitioner, there are things to remember about being involved with this challenging and unique time, and these tools and techniques can help.
