Using communication to help with healing an animals trauma.

The kind of people who would hurt or harm animals are thankfully not the kind of people who are going to spend their time and money on an intuitive communicator. However, I do work with animals who have been rescued from any number of situations from abuse to neglect and communication can be a powerful tool for healing.  Giving messages as well as listening and allowing an animal to the share their experience offer opportunities for relief and healing. 

It is almost indescribable the instantaneous shift that takes place when you tell a rescued animal that he or she is in his or her forever home, that s/he is welcome, loved and that their safety and well-being is important to the people around them. Those of you who have read my book Beyond Companionship  Connecting with Kindred Souls of Animal Companions have read the story of Pierre the Papillon. Pierre was emotionally and physically inaccessible after being rescued by his person. He had no idea how to bond with a human. Pierre distance was upsetting to his new owner who only wanted to love him. She couldn't even touch Pierre without him screaming and shaking. It was not until I shared with him how welcomed, loved and safe he was in his new home that he began to open up. Pierre is no longer living in a state of fear and he and his person are the best of friends. If you want to know how you can send a message that will instantly shift the energy of your animals experience check out my blog: Acknowledgment: An instant energy shifter for the conscious companion. 

The sharing a traumatic or upsetting experience is extremely cathartic for animals just as it is for humans. Not only does this sharing allow the animal to get the experience off his or her chest so to speak, it gives the animals current caretaker information and insights that can help him or her to begin to create the positive experiences needed for the animal to begin healing.  If you are aware that your companion has had a bad or even traumatic experience before coming to you invite him or her to share that experience with you. One way to do that is before you go to bed bring your companion into the forefront of your consciousness. Then ask him or her to come to you in your dreams share with you anything s/he wants you to know about his or her life before coming to you.  Keep a pen and paper next to your bed so you can record any thoughts or feelings you have upon waking. If you are not sure you are ready to connect in this way, or you feel the need to confirm the messages you are receiving  you can always book a session with an animal communicator. 

Seeing first the the profound impact sharing their story has on an animals inspired my hearts calling to work with abused Elephants. I have always been passionate about Elephants and a few years back I stumbled across Boon Lott's Elephant Sanctuary in Thailand. The tourist industry in Thailand is to these majestic beings and when they come to sanctuary they get to live out their lives in peace. If you click on the sanctuary's name you can see the stories of how the elephants came to be there. It is a dream of mine to go and live with these beautiful beings and give each elephant a day or two to personally there their story with me. I then hope to turn their stories into a book donating 100% of the proceeds back support their sanctuary. If you feel inclined I ask that you to hold the vision of this experience with me, thank you!
