Introduction to the Let Animals Lead® Method of Animal Reiki
Frequently Asked Questions
What is animal reiki?
Reiki is a Japanese word that translates into "spiritual" or "life force" (rei) "energy" (ki). The Let Animals Lead® method of Animal Reiki, created by Kathleen Prasad, is an empathic, meditation-based healing modality that balances the flow of life force energy to support your companion’s behavioral, emotional, and physical needs, while holding space for your pain and joy.
Creating a space of balance and harmony allows your pet a respite from the mental trappings of discomfort, fear and confusion to assist their physical, mental, and emotional healing. Once the body and mind relax, healing energy can flow from a place of peace. When you participate as a partner, you can better provide ongoing support within your home.
Who would benefit from this gathering?
This circle is perfect for anyone interested in connecting with other animal lovers, learning about Reiki, and experiencing the calming benefits of a group meditation. There are no prerequisites—whether you're completely new to Reiki, have some experience, or simply want to deepen your connection with animals, this circle offers a welcoming space for all. It’s ideal for those looking to unwind, explore Reiki principles, and meet like-minded individuals in a supportive, peaceful environment. Whether you’re seeking relaxation, insight, or simply a place to share your passion for animals, this circle is for you!
Can I bring my animals to this event?
This class is for human animals only. Please leave your animal companions at home to ensure a distraction-free, focused learning environment and to respect the policies of Discover Your Spiritual Gifts.

What if I've never Meditated or don't know anything about Reiki?
No problem at all! This circle is open to everyone, regardless of experience with meditation or Reiki. If you're new to both, you'll find a supportive and welcoming space to explore and learn at your own pace. The group meditation is designed to be simple and accessible, and you'll be gently guided through the process. You'll also have the opportunity to learn about Reiki-related concepts in an easy-to-understand way. Whether you're curious, new to meditation, or just interested in connecting with other animal lovers, this circle is a great place to begin your journey.
I've tried meditating before and can't sit still or can't get my mind to relax. How will this be different?
The great thing about Animal Reiki Meditation is that it's completely okay to get up and move if you need to! We understand that traditional meditation can be challenging for some, so we offer a more flexible and accessible approach. Our meditation will include simple techniques designed to help you feel comfortable, relaxed, and engaged, rather than forcing you to stay still or quiet your mind in a way that feels unnatural.
Many people have shared that meditating in alignment with the practices of Animal Reiki has allowed them to meditate longer and more comfortably than ever before. We'll guide you through practical methods that make meditation enjoyable and accessible, allowing you to ease into the practice at your own pace. The goal is to help you find peace in a way that works for you, while still benefiting from the healing energy of the group.

Hi, I'm Jaime!
I am an Animal Reiki Teacher, Certified Companion Animal End of Life Doula, and personal Mesa Carrier in the Andean Shamanic Tradition. I dedicate my time and energy to supporting animals and their human companions during life's most tender moments, creating compassionate spaces for healing, connection, and transformation.
Specializing in Animal Reiki and End-of-Life Doula services, I help pets navigate chronic illness, anxiety, and aging while guiding their families with empathy and respect. As a certified practitioner of the Let Animals Lead® Method of Animal Reiki, I blend mindfulness and presence with practical expertise in animal health and compassionate, non-clinical support during end-of-life transitions. My role as a Mesa Carrier deepens my connection to the natural world and reinforces my understanding of the interconnectedness of all beings, enhancing my ability to support the emotional and spiritual needs of animals and their families with grace and presence.
Guided by my mission to spread compassion, I honor the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of all beings. My work reflects a profound respect for the resilience of the human-animal bond and the harmony that emerges when we embrace our shared journey.
Through The Empowered Companion, I offer a heart-centered approach to healing and renewal. While specializing in Reiki and end-of-life care, I also provide Collaborative Feline Behavior Modification and Compassionate Care Pet Sitting. These services empower families to cultivate harmony, connection, and well-being with their beloved companions.
