Pawsitive Energy Beastie Bonds

AJ’s own experience of a surprising resolution to her own health condition led her to seek Reiki, energy healing, for Lola, a rescued mutt who was carrying around a truckload of pain and trauma.
Forms of energy healing such as Reiki have been practiced by many different cultures around the world for over 2500 years! In this episode, AJ talks to two guests who are masters in Reiki. Reiki is a modality of healing that has been in its present form for about 100 years. It involves the practitioner acting as a conduit and working with the energy fields around the body to guide “universal energy” from the practitioner’s palms to the client. People use it for anxiety, heart disease, and other issues. It can also be used effectively with animals. Guests for Episode 21 include Laurie Barshay and Kris Denning of Healthy to the Soul.

According to the US Dept of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health (NIH) National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health:
Reiki hasn’t been clearly shown to be effective for any health-related purpose. It has been studied for a variety of conditions, including pain, anxiety, and depression, but most of the research has not been of high quality, and the results have been inconsistent.
