About this Event
Calling all who love animals and wellness!
When was the last time you got to spend a morning around rescued pigs?! Or engaged in volunteer activities that also brought you joy, uplifted your spirit AND empowered your wellness journey?!
We're teaming up with Laughing Pig Sanctuary, a non-profit organization and home for elderly and abused animals including 23 pot-bellied pigs.
Before we meet with the animals, we'll take a moment to clear and center ourselves with simple guided meditative and yoga exercises, setting intentions for healing for ourselves and the animals.
We'll meet the animal residents, who love berries, bananas, watermelon, fig newtons, and animal crackers! So if you'd like to bring these treats, be prepared to make some new friends!
While we engage with the animals, those who are trained in Reiki/energy healing/body work are invited to connect with animals they feel drawn towards. I'll also be there to guide, assist and clear those who feel called to do this work.
Then we'll help with sanctuary maintenance chores including moving things, painting, and raking.
We'll come together at the end a group photo, gentle yoga stretches, breath work, and a closing meditation to ensure our own peace as we leave the sanctuary.
Ideas for what to bring:
Wear clothes you can get dirty, closed toed shoes, bandana/small towel, work gloves, (frozen) water bottles, a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen. Optional tools: wheelbarrow, rake, garden tools. I'll be providing some refreshments as well!
For a special treat: let's meet afterwards at the nearby Tropical Smoothie Cafe to cool off and build community.
About Your Hosts:
At Sophia's Soul Care, we offer intentional volunteer opportunities that bring us together as a community to serve those whose suffering lowers our collective karmic vibration. We extend our compassion to our animal family who presently endure unimaginable atrocities and many continue to hold onto this trauma even after rescue. We believe that in holding healing space for them (i.e. Reiki/energy healing) we can help them heal their own spirits, accessing peace and feelings of safety perhaps for the first time in their lives.
Why should we care? Because in helping animals release their karma of trauma (caused by humans), we also work to raise the collective vibration of consciousness on this planet.
Even if you aren't yet familiar with Reiki or energy healing for animals, but you feel called- we want you there too! And there will be LOTS of other assigned tasks.
