I saw a child who couldn't walk,
Sit on a horse, laugh and talk.
Then ride it through a field of daisies and yet he could not walk unaided.
I saw a child, no legs below, sit on a horse and make it go.
Through woods of green and places he had never been to sit and stare except from a chair.
I saw a child who could only crawl
Mount a horse and sit up tall.
Put it through degrees of paces and laugh at the wonder in our faces.
I saw a child born into strife, take up and hold the reins of life.
And that same child, I heard him say,
THANK YOU FOR SHOWING ME THE WAY.
Healing at a basic level; energy heals from the source of the problem. If there is nothing but energy at our source and illness is a magnified change in this energy, then accessing that energy is a more direct way to heal. Amazing things can happen if a pet or person is open to the energy and lets it in.
**Energy healing can help an animal stay mentally focused so they can learn better for training and competition events. Energy healing can be used for general health maintenance and can give you and your animal the winning edge.
**Energy healing can help animal guardians that are concerned with inappropriate behavior, behavior they want to stop. It is necessary to determine why the particular behavior is happening. Energy healing can assist the animal in understanding what his job really is.
**Energy Healing for End of Life is an area that can truly assist in supporting you animal. Animals sometimes do not understand what is happening at the end of life and can fight to stay with us for our sake, even though it is better for them to move on. This is known as “crossing the rainbow bridge.” It can be very reassuring to the humans to know that their animal has made a very smooth transition.
Animal energy healing cannot replace vet care but can be a great alternative for your pet and can help solve a number of problems from acute pain from an injury, to chronic pain from old age, it can even help the emotional wellbeing of your animal by soothing your animal’s separation anxiety.
Some animal owners will only turn to animal energy healing when it’s their last hope. Humans are highly encouraged to embrace energy healing and holistic pet care for their animals as a valid method of treatment and one that your pet will love.
Animal energy healing can also be done at a distance. The oldest and simplest form of distance healing is the “Prayer”. And there is proof that this healing does work. Touching the animal is not necessary in distant healing which is just as powerful as if the animal was being touched. It is considered one of the most effective types of healing and is easier for them to surrender to because of the natural connection to the earth and universe they have. They do not have to believe it, they will not block the healing or sabotage it but recognize it for how wonderful it is and truly soak it up.
**Some results you can expect from energy healing are faster healing of injuries, happier moods, less stress, no separation anxiety, better movement of joints due to arthritis and increased quality of life for your animal.
Essential Oils and PetsGuide for use of essential oils and your pets
Animals are usually more sensitive to essential oils than humans.
The animal's size affects the amount of oil you should use.
Application of oils to animals
Usually what is good for a horse owner is also good for the horse. This will make it extremely true in considering the benefits of Reiki for horses. Animal rescue centers are finding it very helpful with the transition of animals brought to their centers. This gentle and non- intrusive therapy for horses can help with:
How Equine Reiki Works
Energy should flow through the body of a horse in good health. But a number of factors can stop with this flow. They can be physical injuries, trauma, dietary changes, emotional problems, training issues, fear, numerous illnesses or a combination of any of these problems. The blockage of energy can result in physical, psychological or behavioral problems.
A Reiki practitioner providing Horse Reiki, or Equine Reiki, restores positive energy flow into the animal’s body, correcting imbalance. Horses are particularly sensitive and will rapidly take the healing a practitioner offers through hands-on or even hands-off (remote healing). Usually, the animal will come closer to the practitioner and kly become a willing animal and want more. When animals have had enough they will usually turn away from you as if to say, enough for now.
Personal Ponies is a national nonprofit organization dedicated to the belief that the life of a child with disabilities can be immeasurably enriched by having a small pony to love and care for.
Founded in 1986, Personal Ponies has grown into a national organization involving hundreds of volunteers throughout the country. Our Mission is to make magic in children's lives, to bring smiles and joy in a most unusual way.
There is something special that happens between a pint-sized pony and a child. There is " magic " of this little animal that speaks to a child in its own way!
In 1994, a call from Marianne Alexander inquiring about miniature sheep brought NH into the world of PPL. It also brought pony pals into the PPL world, as ponies are never placed alone; they are always placed with another pony or a companion.
Please spend some time with us. Find out about our NH Volunteers. Read about the children in NH and their magical pony friends. Contact us and ask what you can do to help spread "magic and smiles" in your community.
The "MAGIC" will electrify you!!
