Enhancing Shelter Care Through Animal Reiki

Join Leah D’Ambrosio, co-founder of the Shelter Animal Reiki Association (SARA), for a heart-opening session on how Animal Reiki can transform the lives of shelter animals—and the people who care for them.

Leah will introduce the Let Animals Lead® method, a gentle, meditative approach that fosters trust, reduces stress, and creates a sense of calm for even the most traumatized animals. Whether you’re a seasoned Reiki practitioner or completely new to energy healing, you’ll walk away with a simple, powerful technique that you can start using immediately to bring peace to animals in your care.

With over 17 years of experience teaching Animal Reiki and a lifelong dedication to animal advocacy, Leah has worked with shelters and sanctuaries across the country to support emotional healing in high-stress environments. You’ll hear real-life success stories, learn how to incorporate Reiki into your daily shelter routine, and discover how presence—not pressure—can be your most powerful tool. This session is perfect for shelter workers, volunteers, and anyone looking to deepen their connection with animals in need.
