8 Major Animal Chakras (and what they mean)

March 22, 2021

Why should you learn about the Animal Chakra system you ask?

The chakra system is made up of a series of energy centers throughout the body that play an important role in an animal’s overall health & well-being. When imbalances or blockages occur in these energy centers, it can result in physical, emotional, or behavioral issues. Pinpointing and addressing these can bring the animal back to a state of balance and optimum health.

While there are said to be many more chakras in & around the body, the animal system is made up of 8 major chakras. Let’s start at the top & take a look!

CROWN CHAKRA (SAHASRARA)

💜 The Crown Chakra is located at the top of the head

💜 It is associated physically with the skull & brain, cerebral cortex, central nervous system, and pineal gland

💜 The Crown relates to the “life force connection”

💜 Imbalances can manifest as grief, depression, disorientation (cognitive dysfunction), fear, separation anxiety, or general stress/tension.

THIRD EYE (AJNA)

🧿 Located on the front of the head, just above the eye

🧿 It is associated physically with the pituitary gland, ears, eyes, nose, and fur/skin

🧿 The Third Eye relates to insight & telepathy, the way animals communicate with each other. This particular chakra is usually very developed in most animals

🧿 Imbalances can manifest as concentration issues, hair loss, hearing loss, hyperactivity, skin allergies, or post-traumatic pain

THROAT (VISHUDDHA)

💠 Located directly on the throat

💠 It is associated physically with the throat, thyroid, hypothalamus, & vocal chords

💠 The Throat relates to all aspects of communication & expression, as well as truth and wisdom

💠 Imbalances can manifest as excessive or lack of vocalization, metabolism issues, thyroid issues, or lack of discernment

*Balancing this chakra can help with communication between you & your animal as well!

HEART (ANAHATA)

💚 Located in the middle of the chest

💚 It is associated physically with the heart, thymus, respiratory system, circulatory system, and immune system

💚 The Heart relates to unconditional love and the human/animal bond

💚 Imbalances can manifest as anger, aggression, emotion-based behaviors, inability/reluctance to bond, arthritis, and blood disorders

BRACHIAL

⚫️ The Brachial Chakra is specific to animals, and is located above the shoulder blades

⚫️ It is associated physically with all organs & body parts

⚫️ The Brachial Chakra offers access to an animal’s entire energy field, as well as the other chakras

⚫️ Imbalances can manifest as instinct issues/confusion, weakness of spirit, or unhealed emotions

SOLAR PLEXUS (MANIPURA)

🔆 The Solar Plexus is located on the middle spine

🔆 It is associated physically with the stomach, gall bladder, pancreas, adrenals, liver, nervous system, and muscles

🔆 The Solar Plexus is the center of personal power, and relates to the sympathetic nervous system, the metabolism/digestive system, as well as emotions. It is the key center for physical communication

🔆 Imbalances can manifest as diabetes, GI issues, epilepsy, immune disorders, lack of confidence, obsessive behaviors, or nervousness

*These two chakras can work together to provide balance & confidence, and are especially important for nervous or anxious animals.

SACRAL (SVADHISTHANA)

🧡 Located in the lower belly

🧡 It is physically associated with the sex organs, spleen, intestines, and bladder

🧡 The Sacral Chakra relates to all aspects of physical life force & vitality

🧡 Imbalances can manifest as hormonal changes, mammary gland issues, lack of confidence, low energy, or weakness/fatigue

*Balancing this chakra can be very helpful for animals as they age or experience changes & new situations.

ROOT (MULADHARA)

⭕️ Located at the base of the tail

⭕️ It is associated physically with the kidneys, spine, colon, legs & paws, and skeletal system

⭕️ The Root Chakra relates to grounding, survival instinct, security/status, trust, and courage

⭕️ Imbalances can manifest as insecurity, fear-based behaviors, inappropriate elimination, and lack of trust

*This chakra is very commonly unbalanced, and one I work with quite often. Luckily, animals are very good at grounding themselves and getting back to balance!

Animal Healing…

August 19, 2020

What actually is it? What does a Three Tree session involve? How can it help?

These are just a few of the common questions I receive on a regular basis. There are still many folks out there that simply don’t know about Reiki and other healing modalities… AND that’s where I come in! I love educating others about the power of Reiki and energy healing. Mostly because it is my passion, but also because i know what it can do.

When I started this journey, I was just looking to add another skill to my resume and implement another way to help the animals I knew. However, once I started my program, it became very clear very quickly that this was my calling. All these things began to click for me (“ohhhh, that’s what that was” or “ohhh now I know why that used to happen to me”) and I was fully immersed almost immediately. It appeared I had been doing my own versions of “healing” since I was a kid, now I was receiving the proper training to take it further.

Fast forward to the present: I have turned my passion into a full time business, helping animals to heal every day. I still can’t believe I get to do this! Each day is different & interesting. I have developed strong bonds with my clients and learn something new from each one. All while combining my passions and healing modalities to achieve the most important goal: healing animals.

So what is it that I actually do? I will admit, sometimes this is the hardest thing to explain to pet parents. Outwardly, there sometimes isn’t much going on during a session….the animal just sleeps, they run & play, they want to sit on the other side of the room. Other times, the animal will curl right up in my lap or push a certain area of their body into my hand for more attention. But it’s what’s going on energetically, physically, and emotionally that’s important. First and foremost, I don’t like to refer to myself as a “healer”. I prefer to call myself a “healing facilitator”. The body of an animal has the ability to heal itself – I am the one that helps that body return to a state of balance so that it may do so. Energetic blockages or imbalances within the body can wreak havoc on physical, mental, and emotional health. Using Reiki (healing) energy, I find these blockages and release them so that balance can be achieved. Other therapies can also be added in to amplify healing such as crystal therapy & aromatherapy.

What makes a Three Tree session unique is my holistic “Balanced Pet” approach. I like to look at all aspects of the animal’s life: medical history, training, home environment, nutrition, age, etc. to formulate the optimal treatment plan. We can address all areas and pinpoint issues or look into alternatives that may improve quality of life. I believe that each animal is unique and therefore, their treatment should be unique as well.

“How it is that animals understand things I do not know, but it is certain that they do understand. Perhaps there is a language which is not made of words and everything in the world understands it. Perhaps there is a soul hidden in everything and it can always speak, without even making a sound, to another soul.”

― Frances Hodgson Burnett
