Johanne Fraser

SARA Practitioner - British Columbia City, Canada

Johanne is a SARA practitioner and is based in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada. Reiki and mindfulness has been a natural path for Johanne as she has been practising yoga and meditation for years. As a child, she was drawn to the energy in nature and animals, finding peace and comfort in their presence. She instinctively knew as a child that there was a common chord in the connection with nature, animals and our existence.

All the dogs that Johanne has been blessed to be graced with in her life have been rescued from shelters and in rescuing animals, those animals have rescued her. Johanne can't imagine a world without animals and the more she learns about Reiki and the ability to use Reiki with animals confirms to Johanne that she is a forever student in the presence of these beautiful pure souls.

Johanne offers Reiki to both humans and animals and also teaches Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki for humans and is registered with the Canadian Reiki Association as a human/animal practitioner and teacher.
