National Animal World Reiki Day

February 2, 2025 | 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM

In support of National Animal World Reiki Day February 5th,
Kingdom Animal Shelter is offering a FREE educational event Sunday February 2nd, 1-2pm to share about Animal Reiki and the benefits of Reiki for pets and shelter cats.
World Animal Reiki Day was started by volunteer members of The Shelter Animal Reiki Association (SARA), whose mission is to bring the healing benefits of the Let Animals Lead® Method of Animal Reiki meditation to rescued animals and their caregivers worldwide.
This is your opportunity to learn more about what Reiki is, its benefits and how it is used with animals, specifically how it is used to support cats at the shelter who may be shy, sacred or grieving to transition to trusting, confident and ready for adoption.
If you have ever been curious about Reiki, interested in working with your own pet at home using Reiki or interested in learning to offer Reiki as a volunteer in a shelter setting…then this opportunity is for you!
Please arrive by 12:45.
Our guest speaker will be speaking from 1-2 about Reiki, its benefits and sharing cases/stories about actual cats who have experienced Reiki at our shelter.

Location: Kingdom Animal Shelter, 1161 Portland St, Saint Johnsbury, VT
