Reiki has recently received a big push from Hollywood superstar Jennifer Aniston. For a few weeks I’ve been following the stories in various newspapers, which of course get quite a bit of attention due to her celebrity status, but it really is nice to see Reiki in the news.
It seems Jennifer is paying several hundred dollars a week for Reiki and Massage therapy for her aging dog, Norman… what a wonderful treat for a faithful friend! Most of the stories contains something to the effect of:
A source told press, “Norman has been Jennifer’s constant companion during all her emotional upheavals, but he suffers from aching joints and stiffness. Jennifer doesn’t want to put him on medication just yet, so she has opted for doggy spa treatments from a licensed vet technician.”
And while all of the special treatments may seem a bit superfluous to some, it seems they’ve already begun to work. “Norman has more spring in his step these days,” said a close friend.
Many of us neglect giving Reiki to animals (and friends alike) until it is absolutely necessary, which in some cases can be too late. The old adage “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” is spot on in this respect and a short monthly treatment is all that is necessary. For those of you with dogs or cats, how about giving them Reiki while they sit on your lap, you may never get them to leave, but you’ll both feel better as a result… guaranteed!
For further explanation or discussion, your thoughts are most welcome and highly encouraged, please feel free to comment below!!!

a friend i used to chat with every so often used to say “why turn it off?” and “attune everyoone – cats, dogs, unborn babies…everyone – who will accept it (even if you’ve got to ask their higher self)”
he was always putting that reiki vibe out there, you could feel the warmth coming from him a few feet away.
Enlightenment, so I’m told, is similar in this respect. In its early stages, you must make an effort to turn it on, and continually make an effort to keep it on. After a while it becomes automatic and the situation is reversed, where you remain enlightened and must expend some effort to turn it off.
What you mention here requires some effort, that is, to keep Reiki on constantly, but after you’ve done so for some time, the situation here is also reversed and you would need to put the effort into switching it off… not that I can think of a good reason to do so… 🙂
