Intro to Animal Reiki and Guided Meditations
Join Linda Crabtree of Circle of Peace to learn about and practice a method to bring ease to your animal's mind, body and spirit, and yours, and to strengthen the connection with your animal. Linda will introduce the basics of animal Reiki followed by two (2) guided meditations with the amazing Empowered Equines. You will gain an understanding of what animal Reiki is and how it supports the animals' well-being, and the Six Pillars of the Let Animals Lead® approach to animal Reiki. We will also discuss the various ways that animals respond to the Reiki energy. During the guided meditations, we will quiet our mind and body, offering to the magnificent equines a calm, peaceful space filled with balance, harmony, love and compassion.
Linda Crabtree is a Reiki Teacher/Practitioner with over 20 years of experience, and a Certified Equine Acupressure Practitioner. Her website is www.circleofpeace.com.

Equine Chakra Balancing Workshop
The horse's energetic balance is affected by being around people, disputes in the herd, changes in the environment, and confined living quarters.
Attending to your horse's chakras through healing breath and essential oils can ease the horse's digestive tract, calm nerves, restore zest for life, and will create a deeper connection between you and your animal. Frequent Chakra Balances helps you maintain a healthier system and less dis-ease.
