In today's session I'm going to offer some Reiki for you and your canine friend.
So if you'd like to go ahead and find a comfortable seat with your furry pal.
If your dog is small you might want to invite them to sit on your lap.
Otherwise just sit somewhere where you can touch your dog and sit up in an upright position.
Close your eyes,
Take a deep breath in and then let it out slowly.
Inhale and just exhale.
Take another deep breath in and imagine all of your stress,
Worries and doubts fade away as you exhale.
Allow yourself to feel grounded in your energy.
Imagine that there are roots coming down from the base of your spine.
These roots will stretch far into the earth core grounding you here as you feel yourself stable and part of the earth as though you were a big tree.
Imagine that grounding energy can flow up these roots into your heart center giving you peace,
Giving you strength and stability.
Just be here rooted and grounded in to the earth's energy.
Now imagine the expansive creative sky energy above.
Feel your crown chakra opening to allow that bright light energy of healing and goodness to flow down into your heart center through your crown chakra.
Allow the sky energy and the earth energy to mingle giving you that perfect blend of the physical world and the divine energy of Reiki.
Gently begin to rub your hands together.
You may start to notice a warming sensation in your palms.
Gently place your hands onto your dog.
Just trust your intuition to guide your hands into a position.
Imagine that that healing Reiki energy within you is now flowing from your heart center out through your hands and into your dog.
Bring your attention back to your breath.
Each inhale strengthening your energy,
Expanding your heart,
Welcoming in healing.
Each exhale calms your mind,
Relaxes your body,
Releasing tension,
Fear and anxiety.
Can you begin to recall some memories in your mind of you and your dog?
What is it that makes this bond so special?
What do you love most about them?
What is it about our dogs that just make us feel so connected?
What makes dogs human's best companion?
Why do we often love them and treat them with as much love and respect as we treat our own children?
Because they are soul family.
They are our best friends.
Dogs teach us about loyalty and unconditional love.
They have the purest of souls.
Dogs don't care about all those egotistical things like what they look like,
How many friends they have,
What kind of cars they drive or how expensive their homes are.
No.
They are just here enjoying each moment as it passes.
Never focused on the past or worried about the future.
So for just a few moments,
Really be here,
Be present with your dog.
Focus on their breath,
The sound,
The rise and fall of their chest.
Perhaps you are able to match your breath with their breath.
Every breath strengthening that beautiful bond that you share.
There is just something truly special about this dog,
Isn't there?
Perhaps you live in a household where there are many dogs.
Each one of them holding a special place in your heart,
Different from each other,
Yet loved just the same.
Dogs communicate first with energy.
So when you take this time to be present and be here in the now with your dog,
Calming your energy,
It is your way of showing them love.
You are building a stronger energetic connection with your dog and in return they will absolutely love you for it.
Bring one hand to your heart and one hand to your dog's heart.
Take the deepest breath in through your nose and release from your mouth.
Be sure to say thank you to your dog or dogs for participating.
And I would like to extend my thank you to my own dogs who are always present here for these recordings.
And to you,
Thank you for taking the time out of your day to meditate with us.
Have a wonderful day.
