Connection with your animal

Do you feel a connection with your animal? Do you look at your animal and think, if I could understand you, it would be so much easier? 

Do you sometimes see your animal lying down with sad eyes? Wouldn’t you like to know what the matter is? The problem is maybe that you don’t know how to connect and understand your animal and leave it therefore alone with its feelings, thoughts and maybe even pains. 

Have you ever had the thought “I would love to get answers from my animal to the questions I have for him/her”? 

You are not the only one. 

Today I got an email from a female dog owner whom told me that they want me to communicate with her dog but her husband was sceptical. I told him that I understand him being sceptical. I was at first sometimes not trusting and in doubt of my own skills. Now I know they are real, through countless experiences. I believe we all used to understand animals but we forgot about this ability and can re-master it. 

After the communication with their dog, the couple now both connect much more with their dog. The once sceptical owner got already a deeper connection with the dog. They now regularly sit with the dog. Both animal and human look into the eyes of each other in silence, connecting. 

This is the first step. I thought I might share this with all of you.  

If you ever feel like you want to connect more with your animal, sit down on the floor with your animal and simply be. Don’t talk right away, only look into the animals eye.  

The next step would be to imagine a question or thought .To feel the answer. This takes more time and I can imagine that you may need guidance on your connection path with your animals. 

With time and experience you will get more and more answers to your questions and you can connect to more animals. Be aware that not all animals want to connect at that moment or maybe never, just like not all humans want to converse. I never had animals that didn’t want to talk with me but once a horse wanted me to wait for the next day to talk with him. He needed time to trust me. His owner afterwards told me when I would have said he talked right away with me, she wouldn’t have believed me. It is important when we go in deeper connection to respect the animals, accept their signals and don’t force them and show them our openness towards them. 

Start today. It only takes few minutes of your time, but could potentially open a new world to you. 

Sit or lie in front or next to your animal. When they are calm and accept your presence then look into their eyes. Feel and be aware of yourself and your surroundings. What is going on when you are connected? What do you feel, think, smell, and hear? What has changed? 

Comment your experiences with your animals here. I would love to hear from you.
