For the world to change, the way we interact with animals needs to change.
Become a Let Animals Lead® Method of Animal Reiki Ambassador and raise awareness for Animal Reiki in your community. Help us spread compassion and healing for animals and their caregivers through Reiki practice. Recognize and honor animals as spiritual teachers and healers.
On Sunday, February 4th, SARA hosted a groundbreaking World Animal Reiki Day (WARD) Event!
OUR MISSION
To raise awareness around the globe of the healing benefits of the Let Animals Lead® Method of Reiki for animals as well as honor all animals as our spiritual teachers.
To achieve this, we encourage shelters, sanctuaries and other animal welfare organizations, veterinary clinics, animal groups, animal-related businesses and individuals who love animals to organize Reiki events in celebration of World Animal Reiki Day.
In addition to larger, organized events, celebrating can also be as simple as lighting a candle to honor your animal teachers, sitting in silent Reiki meditation with your animals, or doing a compassionate act for your local shelter or sanctuary.
Unite the world Animal Reiki community by sharing your thoughts, messages and pictures of your celebration of World Animal Reiki Day on our Facebook page. For Twitter and Instagram: #WorldAnimalReikiDay and tag us on Twitter @SARA_news or Instagram @shelteranimalreiki
WHO IS INVOLVED
World Animal Reiki Day is organized by the 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. We welcome all Animal Reiki practitioners from all lineages and forms of practice to join us to celebrate this special day!
WHY FEBRUARY 5TH?
February 5 was the birthday of SARA President Kathleen Prasad's first Animal Reiki teacher, Dakota. An Australian shepherd mix, Dakota was rescued from Sacramento Animal Control as a puppy and spent over sixteen years by Kathleen's side. In addition to awakening Kathleen to the benefits of Reiki for animals, Dakota inspired Kathleen to create the Shelter Animal Reiki Association (SARA).
