I received a strong impression from a cat that she wanted frowns on her friends’ faces, instead of their constant gooey smiles of affection regarding her feline self. She communicated that she began biting the base of her tail making it bald and inflamed because undying affection was driving her mad with boredom. When I […]
The Human-Animal Connection
The Horse Who Bucked for Love
A client called about her horse’s aloof behavior. I quickly assumed that the equine wanted to be alone and didn’t like exercise because it was her nature to be lazy and withdrawn. We invent logical reasons to say why an animal acts the way s/he does; easier and more convenient than breathing deep beneath the […]
Although this post is for the weak at heart, it might be too gritty for the weak at heart to read.
Rod Lurie says in his online Huffingtonpost article that the film, “The Reader,” is a denial of the accountability and memorability of the Nazi’s industrialized slaughter of Jews during the Holocaust. As if there is only one holocaust we should be concerned about. Which brings to my mind and heart, Abe Lincoln’s beautiful concern for […]
Dying to Live
A woman wondered if Dobie, her dog, was sick and wanted to die because for weeks he seemed fatigued and depressed. In a session on the phone with the woman, I got that Dobie was saying, yes, he was sick and tired, and that he was dying because death was looking like a more lively […]
Animals: Masters of the Art of Letting Go
In response to my January 3rd post, a reader emailed me to ask if the blood disease in the cat was treatable. I emailed her back to say that since my posting, the cat had new test results showing that the disease was losing power. Through vet-medication, plus a discussion with the cat where she […]
Which Came First…
Yet more proof that stress in our bodies is usually reflected in the bodies of our beloved pets as well, and, apparently vice versa. Zorro, a dog, was limping on his right leg. During a healing session by phone, I got that the limp was due to stress lodged in between his shoulder blades and […]
Like-Hearted Animals
A horse’s heart –any mammal’s heart – resonates in energetic frequency with the human heart. I know not because scientific research finally realizes this, but from my own experience with animals, two of which were horses. Several years ago, a client asked me to give a Reiki-Polarity treatment to her miniature horse who suffered from […]
She’s not begging. She’s hoping.
Her big brown eyes fix on the journey of the stainless steel silver spoon scooping out a chunk of creamy iced chocolate Soy Dream from its container. They ‘drool’ as the spoon travels back through space where it makes its drop into the mouth of a long dark tunnel leading down to cool my stomach […]
Horse Power
Recently, I communicated with an aspiring endurance horse who refused to endure his female human on his back. For privacy sake, let’s call him George, and her, Susan. Aside from my sensing that that his lower spine hurt and shot pain out to the top of his left haunch, George said that he did not […]
