Animal Loss Support

Support after the loss of an animal you love.

The grief that follows the loss of an animal you love is real and profound.

Every animal is a singular soul, and the connection you shared with them is entirely your own. The bond you shared was unique in all of time, and their absence can leave a space in the heart that no other being could ever truly replace.

Loss takes more than one form. Sometimes the separation comes through difficult life circumstances, a move, a change in family structure, illness, housing restrictions, or the painful decision to rehome a beloved companion. The circumstances may differ. The depth of loss does not.

The connection between an animal and the person who loves them is often one of the deepest relationships in a lifetime. They share our homes, our routines, our quiet moments, and our most ordinary days. When that presence is gone, the space they leave behind can feel overwhelming.

In our society, grief after the loss of an animal is often misunderstood or minimized. People may be expected to return quickly to normal life, even while carrying a very real sense of heartbreak.

 

 

Your grief is valid.

 

I have sat with this grief myself, more times than I can count, and in more ways than most people know. That is part of why this work exists.

This space exists to offer understanding, compassion, and support during that time.

You do not have to carry this grief alone.

The years we get

Jambi as a puppy, with his Mr. Snuffleupagus. Same dog, twelve years later, with the same soft toy he has carried with him the whole way.

Every animal we love shares this companionship with us. There is the time when they are here, and there is the time that comes after. We do not get to choose how long. We only get to choose how present we are while they are here, and how gently we move with them when their time begins to close.

This work is built for both sides of that relationship. The years when they are here. The time that comes after. Both are held here with the same care.

Memorial Prism

Vitalis Light Memorial Prism

$38

A beautiful keepsake Reiki-infused with intention and created in loving memory of a beloved companion animal.

A tangible way to honor your connection and the love that always is.

A small heart-shaped crystal prism. Sourced from the finest crystal available, multifaceted, jewelry-grade, and cut to refract the light into rainbows.

Each prism is individually prepared through a focused Reiki infusion with your companion in mind. Guardians share the name of their companion animal and include a photograph of their beloved companion to deepen the energetic connection during the preparation process.

Many guardians place the prism near a window, in a favorite space within the home, or even on a car rearview mirror where light can pass through it. As sunlight moves through the crystal, soft rainbow beams appear throughout the space, a gentle reminder that the love shared with a companion animal continues to shine.

Even when sunlight is not present, the crystal remains energetically prepared through Reiki intention, continuing to hold the memory of the bond it was created to honor and quietly offering comfort within the space it inhabits.

The Vitalis Light Memorial Prism may also be sent as a thoughtful gift, at no additional cost, to someone grieving the loss of their companion animal.

Each memorial gift includes a handwritten card that reads:

Gold lotus outline with three sparkling stars

In loving memory of [Companion Animal Name]

The love you shared is eternal.

Their light continues to shine in your heart.

With compassion,

Vitalis Light

 

A short personal message may also be included if desired.

*This offering is intentionally priced so that anyone navigating loss may have access to it.

Memorial Photo Reiki Session

Memorial Photo Reiki Session

30 Minutes — $65

For guardians who prefer a quieter form of support, a Memorial Photo Reiki Session may also be considered.

Using a photograph you provide, Reiki is held for approximately 30 minutes with the intention of supporting emotional restoration while honoring the connection you shared with your companion animal.

A photograph that includes your animal and you is ideal, both facing the camera if possible. It allows the energetic focus of the session to include the connection between the two of you.

This offering is often chosen by guardians who may not feel ready for a live session but still wish for gentle energetic support during the grieving process.

 

Companion Loss Support Session

Companion Loss Support Session

60 minutes — $165

A private 60-minute session created to offer a safe, compassionate space for those navigating the loss of a companion animal.

Grief can bring many emotions, sadness, confusion, guilt, or the feeling that a part of daily life has suddenly gone quiet. This session allows space for those feelings to be acknowledged and supported.

Each session is guided by what you need most in that moment. Some guardians wish to speak about their companion and share memories. Others prefer a quieter session focused on Distance Reiki to help bring calm and emotional steadiness during a difficult time.

Sessions may include:

  • Compassionate listening and emotional support
  • Space to remember and speak about your companion
  • Grounding practices to help ease overwhelming feelings
  • Distance Reiki to encourage calm and ease

For many guardians, one of the heaviest parts of grief is questioning decisions made during their companion's final days. Questions about timing, suffering, and whether they did the right thing can linger long after the loss.

In truth, choosing to release an animal from suffering is often the final act of love and protection a person can offer.

*Many guardians choose to include a handcrafted Memorial Prism as a lasting tribute to the light, love and connection they continue to share with their companion. If you would like one created, simply add a Memorial Prism to your cart before completing checkout. I will personally infuse your Memorial Prism with Reiki for both you and your beloved pet.
