Do animals enjoy Reiki?
You'll know as soon as you ask permission or start sending the energy! Just like people, they all have their own opinion.
They may:
* Love it and soak it up for as long as you want to send it!
* Like it for a bit and then leave/want you to stop
* Only like it at a distance, not up close
* Not want it at all!
Animals are very sensitive, wise and aware of their own energy as well as the energy surrounding them - sometimes Reiki can be too overstimulating, causing them to only like a little bit at a time or indirect connection. That's why, before sending any energy, I make sure to ask permission.
If they are interested, I get a feeling of receptivity, a "yes" in my mind or they will physically move closer.
If they aren't, I'll feel a wall or hault in the flow of energy, a "no" in my mind, they may physically walk away or even shake their head!
Sometimes though, it just isn't clear.. so I'll ask that before I start sending Reiki, if the animal doesn't want it, that the energy go to anywhere else in the room or world where it may be needed (for the time it takes me to realize they're not receptive).
Even insects, arachnids and arthropods enjoy Reiki and energy healing! One of my animal companions happens to be a giant African millipede and sometimes the only thing that gets her to uncurl after a long nap is a "bath" of golden, supportive, loving light. 💖
