Gabriele Annegret
I was named Gabriele Annegret (Gabi) and raised in Bremen, Germany. I immigrated to California, Santa Barbara in 1989, spent 5 years in LA and returned to Santa Barbara to be involved in a restaurant/bar.
While I was working there I also went through Nia trainings and started to teach.
Shamanic Training
Shamanic Training with Dr. Alberto Villoldo, Ph.D
In 2002 I traveled to Peru with Alberto Villoldo, a medical Anthropologist and Shaman. There I attended ceremonies and experienced energetic transmissions directly from the Q’ero Shamans of the high Andes. Over the course of the next two years I studied the four-fold path of the Medicine Wheel with “The Four Winds Society” and keep following the teachings of Alberto, walking the path of beauty.
Qigong Training
Qigong Training with Grand Master Zhou Ting-Jue
I studied with Master Zhou, a Medical Intuitive in 2002. For almost half a century, Master Zhou has been successfully diagnosing and treating disease with his powerful Qigong skills and techniques.
Astro Cartography
After selling Blue Agave I was relying on the wisdom of my soul to guide me and spent 2 seasons at the OMEGA Institute near Rhinebeck, New York and 3 month on the Big Island, Hawaii. All my choices were validated by this Astrocartography Map – the big lines run through Hawaii, New York and LA/SB.
Messages from Animal Spirit Guides
In the summer of 2015 a Cormorant visited me many times on my kayak on Long Pond Lake in Rhinebeck, NY.
Bird Animal totems have been used symbolically within cultures throughout history. These totems or animal spirit guides serve as messengers and are with us throughout our physical and spiritual life to help us gain insights and self-awareness.
Sometimes he would stay for an hour, drying himself and basking in the sun. He also showed me how he fished, diving deep.
It was a message for me to dive into what I have been hesitating about, to dive into the waters of life creatively and using my skills to achieve a task. I already studied Reiki 1 & 2, now I was interested in Animal Reiki. You can read about my journey in my book.

How Animal Reiki Found Me and Other Stories
In her book, How Animal Reiki Found Me and Other Stories, Author Gabriele Annegret shares her journey of awakening through encounters of animals as spirits, message carriers, and healers. Her experiences taught her that magic can only happen outside our comfort zone and opened her up to a world unseen before. Through her eyes, we might relearn to see the world full of wonder, with ties between the natural and spiritual realm.
It is her wish that these stories enhance the awareness of her readers and that we all may find better ways to Be while revering all forms of life … especially our animals.
