Everything alive receives Reiki – with gratitude
With day 99, the view widens beyond your own body. Here, Reiki is expressly understood as something that does not concern only human beings. Animals, plants, trees and, in a broader sense, also rooms or situations can be included in the practice. This is a beautiful step because it makes the heart of Reiki visible: connectedness with all living things.
Reiki for Animals
Animals often accept Reiki immediately, but always in their own way. Therein lies an important lesson. An animal is not impressed by big explanations. It comes when it wants the energy and goes when it has had enough. This is a very pure form of feedback.
That is why the first rule in animal Reiki is: offer, do not impose. Hold out your hands, leave some distance, wait. If the animal comes closer, that is the answer. If it goes away, that is also the answer. Respecting this freedom is part of a good Reiki attitude.
Reiki for Plants
Plants too can be expressly included in this practice. Holding your hands over leaves, blessing the soil, giving water charged with Reiki: all of these are simple applications that do not have to be complicated. This is not about attributing miraculous powers to every plant, but about relationship. Anyone who treats a plant mindfully practices care without demand.
The thought that Reiki also supports the natural process when something cannot be saved is especially mature. Reiki is not dominion over life. It accompanies life.
The Meaning of This Day
Reiki for animals and plants teaches something very essential: energy work is not only self-optimization. It leads outward into a relationship with the living world. Anyone who calmly offers Reiki to an animal or silently lays hands on a tree often quickly notices that their own perception also changes. The separation becomes smaller.
An example: You sit with a cat without wanting to hold it. You activate Reiki and hold your hands calmly a few centimeters away. The cat comes closer, stays briefly, lies down, or goes away again. There is a lot in this simple sequence: respect, perception, patience, non-doing. These are exactly good human Reiki qualities too.
Nature as a Counterpart
Many people treat animals and plants kindly, yet unconsciously still like accessories to their lives. Reiki can help you perceive them again as counterparts. Not overloaded with human ideas, but simply as living beings with their own order.
When you give Reiki to a tree, perhaps nothing spectacular happens. But perhaps you notice that your breathing becomes calmer, that your hands respond differently, or that you suddenly experience another kind of stillness. This too is practice.
An old Reiki master would probably close this day with a simple reminder: Reiki does not belong to you. It flows through you. And because it serves life, it may also serve all life. How to Offer Reiki Well to Animals and Plants
What matters is that you do not push. Animals show very clearly whether they want closeness, distance, only a brief encounter or no contact at all. Precisely in this, they are good teachers. Reiki may be offered, but not imposed.
An example: A dog is restless and keeps coming to you briefly, then going away again. Even this back and forth can already be part of the treatment. Not every giving of Reiki looks like long, silent lying still.
With plants, the form is simpler, but no less serious. Consciously watering a houseplant regularly, placing your hands on the pot or giving it Reiki while repotting can deepen your relationship with all living things. It is not only about what the plant "receives", but also about how you learn to meet life more mindfully.
What You Should Pay Attention To
Reiki for other beings requires especially much humility. An old Reiki master would say: Do not go there to dominate. Go there to serve and listen.
Your answer belongs in your personal Reiki journal. It grows with every day and stays with you alone.
