~ Upon completion of this 3-day workshop, you will be certified as an ICRT Animal Reiki Master and will able to teach ICRT Animal Reiki I & II and ICRT Animal Reiki Master level classes, both online and in-person.

 

The ICRT Animal Reiki Master course provides the Animal Reiki energy, as well as the tools and techniques needed to practice, share Reiki with animals, and teach Animal Reiki with skill and expertise. You will learn the advanced tools and techniques for sessions, as well as how to teach the tools and techniques should you decide to teach Animal Reiki as a Master practitioner. 

​

The ICRT Animal Reiki energy was developed by the Holy Fire® III Reiki energy and is Reiki energy specifically for animals. The Animal Reiki symbol received in this Master class empowers the vitality and life force in both animals and people. It unifies the human and animal consciousness in the Reiki practitioner.
