For the world to change, the way we interact with animals needs to change.

The Shelter Animal Reiki Association has brought together leaders in the world of animal advocacy to share with you how you can make the biggest impact for the good of all animals.  

The Shelter Animal Reiki Association (SARA), a global non-profit renowned for its work bringing peace and stress relief to shelter and sanctuary animals since 2008, organized this groundbreaking, FREE, online conference because we know that for the world to change, the way we interact with animals needs to change. Animals show us daily how to be better, kinder, and more resilient—and now it’s time to follow their lead.

Learn from wisdom teachers, authors, professors, animal advocates, and veterinarians how you can empower yourself to light the way to a brighter future.

This diverse group of experts distills their collective wisdom and compassion by offering practical, down-to-earth tips that make a profound difference in the lives of our animals, ourselves, and the world around us.

In this once-in-a-lifetime event participants will: 

• Connect with animal lovers, advocates, and healers from across the world through our interactive platform
• Discover simple, everyday choices that promote a more sustainable lifestyle
• Learn why cultivating compassion matters, and how to do it
• Practice a powerful mantra for the support and healing of animals
• Explore how plant-based foods create a more compassionate future
• Learn simple techniques for listening to animals
• Enjoy a guided meditation for a deeper connection to animals
• Discover how nutrition keeps your animals happy and health
• Hear from founders of animal sanctuaries about how they stay positive in the face of suffering
• And so much more!

Even in dark times, there is always light. Together, with the guidance of these experts, we can create more light in the world for animals and ourselves!
