Throughout my book Beyond Companionship: Connecting with Kindred Souls of Animal Companions, you will see Pause & Connect Points. I did this for two reasons; I wanted to give you an opportunity to apply what you are reading about to the relationship you share with your pet(s), and because I know what a profound impact pausing to connect with the animals in your life has on the relationship you share with him/her.
Taking the time to pause and connect is especially important in working and learning situations when you need to communicate information to your pet. How clearly can you communicate what you need to your pet if you don't take a moment (pause) to get connected? Communicating does not have mean exchanging information by talking to your pet and hearing his or her response the way I do in one of my intuitive communication session. Communication as an exchange of information. You and your animal friends are always exchanging information, sometimes it is verbal, other times you communicate through body language and your energy is always broadcasting messages to your animal friends, human friends too! If you are an equestrian you will communicate through leg pressure, and equipment like reigns, and bits. No matter how the information is being exchanged, communication with your animal companion will be crystal clear if you pause and connect first.
Here are my two simple actions to help you pause and get connect with your animal friend. I recommend doing this before any time spent with your 4-legged companion.
1. Pause - Stop and take a deep breath.
2. Connect - Drop into your heart-space. You can activate your heart space by bringing your attention to your heart center, thinking of something you love a joyful memory, family member, or beloved pet can help you do this.
Animal companions hold the space of unconditional love in our lives. Your pets true essence resonates with the vibration of love, so when you pause and drop into your heart-space in the presence of your animal companion you are literally tuning into his or her wave length. Once you have connected on this level any interaction that follows is going to feel more connected, communicative, and co-creative.
