Animal transitioning

All of my clients are very special to me.  The hardest part of my job is when it’s time for animals to transition phases of life.  This week was one of those times.  A very sweet Australian Shepherd’s time came when he lost total control of his back legs.  I miss seeing his sweet face and seeing his beaming personality. I am so honored when working with clients and facilitate the best healing I possibly can while they are here.  I build a bridge of light, so when they pass, the transition goes smoothly for them.  This gives the owner piece of mind with their animal.  This post is a recognition and blessing to all animals and I am grateful my calling in life is to help them.

Reiki Master training effects on dog

A dog was scheduled for a first appointment with me.  They arrived early as my daughter was leaving with her father.  The dog was excited; yet I didn’t think much about it. The caretakers were commenting on how unusual this behavior was for her.  We came into my healing space.  The dog lay down and was ready for the session.  This was unusual to me, since most dogs want to sniff the whole room to see what other animals had been there before settling down.  The session went really well with the dog responding, stretching and releasing throughout the session.  She was so relaxed she fell asleep.  When the session was over, the caretakers got up to leave and the dog came over and sat in my lap and was content to stay.  Now this wasn’t a small dog.  I got a great laugh and felt her thank you.  It occurred to me later that she must have been responding to this extra healing energy coming through me.

A new name: Magic Rod for Reiki Energy

My daughter and I were eating out with a friend and her 2 sons, when her 4 year old quit eating, got very sullen and nestled in closely to his mother.  He complained of his tummy hurting.  I asked him if he would like for me to help his tummy and he was wary and unsure.  I asked his mother if she would like me to work with him with distance work from where I was across the table.  She said yes even though she was skeptical it would work.  I could hear her thinking – how can it work when she’s not even touching him?  I opened my hands under the table to send healing energy to her son.  My hands were on fire with the energy coming out of them.  A few minutes later he started looking perkier.  He started eating again and then lay back against his mom and stuck his foot over to me under the table where my hands were.  I picked up his foot and held it in my hands.  I let his foot go when I felt he had had a good dose and was feeling better.  He put his foot back into my hand.  He wanted more, so I obliged.  I asked him if I could have his other foot too and he was quick to say yes.  As I was working, he looked up at his mom and asked “do you know what a magic rod is?”, we both thought he was asking about a magic wand and he said “no, do you know what a magic rod is?” his mom said “no”, he grinned really big and said “Vicki!”.  We laughed.  That was so endearing.  He was definitely feeling the energy from me and what a great way to express it.  I let go of his feet and legs.  I was able to go sit next to him to help his tummy directly with “hands-on”.  By this time, he had perked up a lot and finished his dinner and was playing. Before I knew it, he had crawled under the table and was sitting between my daughter and me and leaning on my arm.  He was a happy camper.  His mother was amazed and very thankful. She is now a believer in distance energy healing and asking if this is something she can learn.  I said yes and I’ll be happy to teach you.

Making A Difference

As I watch and see flooding, tornadoes, loss of jobs, loss of homes, I see base survival issues the people affected are dealing with. I cannot help but be affected since we are all connected on Group Consciousness level.  I reflect on my life, question if I’m living my full potential and thank everything I am grateful for. I got reminded this month why I’m doing what I do and got validation I am making a difference.

At the Groom Expo, a lady visited my booth who had arthritis in her hand. I sprayed Arthritis Ease and rubbed it in. Her hand was able to bend more easily. I then sprayed Pain Ease and rubbed it in. She then was able to make a fist without pain for the first time in 3 years!  She was amazed and grateful and I was so touched. 

This month I worked with a border collie who is only 9 months old (turned 10 months today) who had been having digestion issues for 5 months. He didn’t have normal poo and the owners had gotten many tests and nothing was showing up to figure it out. I did acupressure on him for one short session, assisting his body to release the tension in the stomach meridian and he hasn’t had any trouble sense the session. He is pooping normally and running around being a normal puppy now. I was relieved (as well as the owners!)

I also taught a private make-up class for “Calming Animals” to a couple and their dog. When they arrived the dog immediately curled up on the couch and got as little as she could nesteled into the pillow on the end. I started working with her to get her comfortable with me and teaching the owners what would be best for their dog to help her feel safer and more relaxed. By the end of the hour, the dog was double in length all stretched out and relaxed and the owners had each worked with her and felt good knowing how to continue at home. What trust this dog had to accept the techniques and allow herself to heal. This will open a new way of life for her. 
 
My purpose is making products and doing healing sessions to improve the quality of lives of animals and people.  I accept the fact I am making a difference and I am grateful to be of assistance.

Amazing how quickly things change

Today started out pretty normal.  After taking my daughter to school and spending volunteer time there, I did some work at home before going to the gym and my physical therapy appointment.  This was a rare day that I left my cell phone at home.  What could happen in just a few hours? It started snowing while I was in my appointment. It kept snowing and kept snowing really big flakes which started to stick. There was only one exit from where my appointment was to get back to get my daughter and be home. It seemed like a million miles away.  The interstate was jammed with wrecks and traffic, I started the back way. It was very picturesque with the evergreens and creeks, then the cars started slowing down and proceeded to come to a halt. No movement for some time. I turned around which was at least moving yet very slowly. It took some time to get out of bumper to bumper creeping, crawling traffic. All this time, I had no idea what time it was, if the school was dismissing early or when I would be able to even get to the school.  During this time, my mind was sure swimming lessons would be cancelled for the evening, my appointments tomorrow would be cancelled as well as school. I stopped at Starbucks to get some refreshments to ward off my hunger (I was going to eat lunch when getting home after physical therapy which usually is a 10 minute drive)  I discussed different routes home with the workers. This worked well.  The snow wasn’t falling the direction I went, so cars were not backed up as much. I did make it to school just in time for normal let out time.  The sun was shining, the roads were clear.  A totally different world than the one I just came from. Wow, things back to normal in the space of an hour and a half. This seemed surreal to me. How could I be in a massive snow storm one minute and then a sunny, clear area the next where everything would be back on schedule as if nothing had happened?  This really put in perspective how to stay in the moment and go with the moment and how things can change in a matter of minutes.  Big lesson for the day!  (and don’t leave home without my cell phone again!)
