A gentle, one-hour guided meditation and Reiki experience designed to support the bond between you and the animals you love—whether they are with you physically, far away, or have crossed over.
Join Michelle Henry and Nancy Welch for a soothing session that blends Michelle’s guided meditation for you and your animal with Reiki sent by Nancy to all participants and their companions. The hour closes with space for questions, reflections, and shared insights.
Animals do not need to be present. Attendees are invited to submit a photo or brief information about their animal ahead of time to help deepen the connection.
Who It’s For
This experience is ideal for anyone wishing to deepen their connection with their animal family members, offer energetic support during stress, illness, or transition, reconnect with an animal who has passed, or simply enjoy a calming blend of meditation and Reiki created to nurture both humans and their animal companions.

Share a quiet Reiki experience with your pet to relax, connect, and honor the love you share this Valentine’s season.
💗Valentine’s Day is about love — and the bond we share with our animals is one of the purest forms there is. 💕
Connected Hearts is a shared Reiki experience for you and your animal companion, created to nurture connection, trust, and emotional attunement between you.
Through gentle Reiki energy and guided meditation, this session invites both you and your animal to soften, settle, and meet each other in a place of calm presence. As you relax, animals often respond naturally — sighing, stretching, yawning, or resting more deeply — mirroring the shift in your energy.
This is not about fixing or changing anything.
It’s about being together — heart to heart.
What to Expect (60 minutes):
-
Gentle Reiki offered to both humans and animals
-
A guided meditation to support calm and co-regulation
-
Space for your animal to participate in their own way
-
A peaceful, grounding experience you can share from home
Animals may come and go, sleep, move closer, or simply receive quietly — all responses are welcome.
