Jessica Amber Barnum is an intuitive life coach, yoga instructor, writer and Reiki & Animal Reiki Practitioner. She lives with her husband and two step-children in Carbondale, Colorado. She volunteers weekly at the Aspen Animal Shelter by offering Animal Reiki for the cats and dogs. She also offers in-person and distance Animal Reiki daily for friends’ and family members’ animals, and dedicates a specific meditation for domestic and wild animals all over the world. She says, “A plethora of animals find their way into my hara, as if they are asking for healing care. Sometimes it’s a bear, sometimes it’s a ladybug, sometimes many appear at once as an energetic frequency that I can only describe as pure light. I embrace them with love and sit humbly, honestly and compassionately in their presence.” The accompanying photo is of Jessica and her cat Snoop, who adopted Jessica’s whole family on one frigid February night and who has been their Animal Reiki teacher ever since. Jessica is available to offer both in-person and distant Reiki and Animal Reiki sessions.
