This week’s topic is about “Supporting your local shelter – fun things you can do”.
Here are some of our discussion points:
🐱 Ways to go into the shelter and volunteer without working with animals. There are lots of different ways you can volunteer witout working with animals if that’s too emotional for you.
🐰 Making donations of items you have in your home and no longer use. Check with your shelter’s website and see what items they need. You probably have blankets, sheets and towels you could donate! We also discussed other items you might not think about.
🐶 Working with your local community to gather donations. Local grocery and pet stores can be a valuable asset when gathering free items!
🐴 Offering chair treatments to the staff, volunteers and public (if you are a Reiki practitioner). Great way to support the shelter during shelter appreciation week.
🐭 Getting your employer involved in your goal to support a shelter. Some employers will match your donations, give you a day off to volunteer and even allow a planned event where you and your co-workers can offer meaningful assistance to the shelter as a group!
🐹 Different ways to offer Reiki, and more!
Your local shelter/rescue/sanctuary is a huge resource for the most sensitive population of animals and they need your support! But it doesn’t have to be hard or a burden on you! In this session, Kelly and I shared some super easy but impactful ways you can make a difference!
Shelter animals are the heart of SARA and the Let Animals Lead® method of Animal Reiki. When Kathleen Prasad first started her Animal Reiki journey, she was working with shelter animals. Shelter animals guided her and showed her how to create a system that would honor the sensitivities and agency of animals. This is how the the Let Animals Lead® method started and why it works so well with ALL animals!
