Jasmin has been having anxiety issues and stays a lot under our bed since 4-5 months now. Jasmin is a very smart girl. She observes everything and everyone. I noticed when our oldest cat of 16 yrs. (who is now deceased since Aug. 27th 2011) was licking an area on her back then she would run and hide. I started giving Reiki to her which did help and our older cat seemed more calmer. On the other hand Jasmin was watching her do this a lot and so she started doing it for whatever reason. The old saying “copycat” is so true as it applied here with Jasmin. I would speak gently and try Reiki on Jasmin as it helped somewhat, then she would run and hide again under the bed like she thought something was on her back. It really bothered me to see her go through this as I always speak with my animals or any animal. Jasmin I guess felt she was being taught to do something like our older cat use to do, or felt there really was something wrong, so she to adopted this habit.

In tonite’s healing clinic with Carla and all the compassonate spirits, so much beautiful energy came through. When Carla mentioned the beautiful purple flowers chills ran through me. Jasmin after a few mintues walked in and sat down on the floor near me. I had been ill for almost 2 weeks including pulling my back last week. I too needed some healing work, but so wanted Jasmin to be healed from all of this anxiety she had been putting her tiny body through. What I felt, though, was lots of healing energy coming through to me as well. I realized my Power Animal and my compassonate spirits knew this so I was being sent healing energy along with Jasmin. I want to much for Jasmin to relax and be the calm kitty she once was. I miss her jumping up on our bed sitting next to me or in our lap for a gentle pat. I am so grateful for what Jasmin and I both received this evening..it was most powerful and exceeded my expectations in ways I can’t express~

Thank you kindly Carla and all the loving compassionate beings who came through~

Shamanic Healing:
Spirits did a power animal retrieval with 2 power animals; desert tortus and eagle.  Jackie continued to indicate her fears. Next spirits sent me on a soul retrieval with my power animal. Spirit reinfused all soul parts back into Jackie. Spirit requested I talk to Katie, the guardian and offered healing to her. She accepted verbally in OR and my power animal deer brought her to the healing circle. Spirit then sent me to the Crystal Cave for Emerald and Garnet. There I was also given a rose quartz for my pocket. I brought everything back and the emerald and garnet was infused into first Jackie then Katie. I was told to give Katie the rose quarts into her hand to keep, When I took it out of my pocket it was polished smooth and in the shape of a heart. I then witnessed my spirit teacher surround Jackie and Katie with sacred smoke to seal in the healing power.

Outcome/Feedback:
I would like to thank Claudia for the healing of Jackie on Monday’s Shamanic Animal Clinic. She did a healing on my dog Jackie. Jackie was 11 months old when she ran away. She was gone for 2 days. When she was returned she was a dog that was afraid of almost every thing. Claudia did a healing on Jackie which included giving her her power animals which she can call on when she is fearful. Also, she gave her two stones (emerald & garnet) which she can also use for protection. Jackie is a happier dog now. You can see it in her energy and how she interacts. Thank you to Claudia for the fantastic healing.

Request/Concern: Beau is lovely Chinese Crested Powder Puff.  He is a neutered male and weighs about 14 pounds.  He is about 4 years old and was rescued from a horrible puppy mill – no socialization whatsoever when he came to rescue.  As a result, he had MANY behavioral issues – most have been resolved over the past few years; however, his fear of humans (outside of his immediate family) is the remaining issue.

Shamanic Healing: For the Group Ceremony, we all entered the dimension of Spirit and formed a circle with fire in the center. We called in many layers and levels of Compassionate Spirits until the Power was palpable. Going around the circle, each person stated a request for their animal, and we immediately asked the Spirits to gift that animal Power and Healing. I shared out loud what I personally witnessed. Beau was one of these animals, and I can’t recall exactly what the Spirits did for him! And I am sure that there was much more happening than I reported, as I was just one witness to a very large Spirit event.

Outcome/Feedback:  When I arrived home after the healing (I was at my office and he was home at the time), Beau was extra exuberant!  He even slept through the night – a first in a long time.  Since the healing, he has been more confident and radiant!!  You did great!  Thanks so much!! Thanks Carla.  Last night was great.  love it all!!  XOXOXO

In answer to your question about taking my Shamanic Training webinars through ASN or though my school, SpiritHealer School of Shamanism – there is no difference to you! ASN markets my classes, plain and simple. I taught my distance classes through ASN for many years.  Last year I decided to build out my own school as well. But I didn’t want to leave ASN. So ASN now markets the first 6 SpiritHealer School classes, and gives students ASN credit. If they finish other ASN requirements they can receive an ASN Certificate of Program Completion with these 6 class. No matter who you register with, you will receive SpiritHealer Credit for every class you take, and you will be a SpiritHealer student.

When you finish the full SpiritHealer School program of 9 classes and participation in the Healing Clinic, you will get your SpiritHealer Certification of Training. I know it is confusing, and ASN and I are trying to find a way of making things clearer. But no matter!  You can take the classes through ASN or through me, and you will receive the same attention, respect and love from me.

Hi TA- That is very cool! I see telepathic AC as a shelf the library of shamanism. I really beleive shamanism is a methodology for accessing ALL that is, and I see telepathic communication as a more narrow form of shamanic pracitice.  

In my life I am trying to allow myself to open the spirits kindness and messages in an ongoing way. I am making a pracitice of shifting my focus so that I see the NOR side of things as much as possible, as I am walking in my daily OR world. Like our seeing the Faeries in the trees last week, we know that the spirits are here ALL THE TIME and that our connecting to them is a choice ALL THE TIME. So really – all the intuitive and energy work we do is shamanic in nature. What sets our training apart is  that we learn to connect with compassionate intelligent beings who love us, and we defer to them: we allow them to be leaders in our communication work, our healing work, and in our quest for new knowledge. 

Blessings and power on your path!  Carla

First of all I would like to say how excited I am that we will be hosted at a lovely home in Kona – (see the pics.) Thank you Dana for sharing your fabulous home with us! The first two days will be all about learning to journey and talk with animals, and of course connecting with our personal helping spirits. We will dance our animals and learn how to get their advice for ourselves and others. The second day we ask the teachers to help us with more advanced animal communication requests: Discovering hidden things about an animals unknown past, and connecting with animals who have died. And we will finish the day learning how to request a simple open ended healing for an animal, guided by our compassionate spirits, of course!

Day three we hit the water! We will visit a a great snorkeling beach and connect with the animals and plants there up front and in person. Then we will journey to them and meet their spirits, and the ancient spirits who will bring us amazing lessons about all of life. It is such a joy. If we are lucky we will meet Dolphins. If we are luckier we will meet Parrot Fish, and if we are even luckier still, we will be given a sweet teaching by one of the tiny and exquisite Wrasses. My deepest hope is that we are graced by the spirit of Coral itself, the backbone of the reef and life herself. (just think for a moment about all the places adorned with fossils from previous coral communities, places like Carlsbad caverns, for example.) Wow!

I promise you will meet Parrot Fish, Wrasses and Coral. We will just have to sing the Dolphins in to accomplish the first in person. Their spirits will be there in our journey’s though.

You can register for the workshop at www.spiritlearning.com/kona. We are looking forward to seeing you there.

My deepest gratitude to the following for making this workshop happen:

• Carolyn Bjur in Chicago, for visualizing this and making it happen – THANK YOU!
• Liz Dacus for organizing this on the Hawaii side. THANK YOU!
• Dana for lending us your incredibly beautiful home and for your beautiful heart. THANK YOU!
• Deb Decker, for telling the world. You are the best. THANK YOU!
• Spirits of the reef, for working with me through thick and thin – especially you Tarpon, THANK YOU!

Here is Deb’s press release

Aloha!

We signed up for a Dolphin Encounter, where we interacted with a mother, Marena and her yearling calf Kyle. They did all the tricks with us, including Marena towing us around the pool hanging onto her dorsal fin. What a complete blast! These dolphins are caring gentle and love to play. Matt is really the one to tell how it changed him.

Matt approaches understanding his encounter from the evolution based frame of mind.  “First off, just coming into such close contact with another earthly life form that is so intelligent, more so than other domesticated animals. And you just can’t help but think that these beings didn’t follow the same chain of evolution as us, because they are as intelligent as us, how can this be unless it is a parallel path to us?” Matt went on to share his amazement at how the dolphins teach each other the behaviors, and how closely knit they are when doing group tricks like leaping and spinning.  Most of all I was taken by how curious the dolphins are about people, just as we are about them. They just sat and watched us, just as we do them. We appreciate each other as equals.

I was taken by how much they delight in our delight, in delight itself. My horses are clicker trained, and I have seen the reciprocal joy first hand, but not to the extent that I felt it here. These sweethearts want nothing more than for all of us to be in love and in joy. I believe it is a reflection of two things: the Dolphin Research Center is positive and  honoring, and the dolphins themselves are powered by native joy.  A crappy place could probably diminish this passion in them. Certainly dolphins are indeed wild animals with their own ways. I have known divers who were beaten up by wild dolphins. Maybe this was just the dolphins not realizing the diver was a fragile playmate. Maybe it was the dolphin expressing territorial rights. Or maybe the dolphin mirrored the diver’s attitude.

My communication with these dolphins was straight forward.  “Who is your favorite trainer?” A thin blond woman (There were two of them, but Matt thinks it was Jessica, who was very enthusiastic and sweet.) “Tell me about what makes you happy?” Getting a spin perfect, sliding on a slick surface (like a seal), sex, the quietness of night, a low whistle that one of the trainers gives when he comes out alone and gives back rubs, helping small kids who are “special needs”. This came from a large dolphin named Delphi.

In Bonaire this February I spent a morning interacting with a wild pod. They told me where they would be and when, and I went to greet them, and was always just a little bit late. Finally I was able to see them, swim out to them and be with the trailing members of the pod, a mom and her calf, as they dove beneath me. Nothing even close to touching distance. The Dolphin Research Center discourages all interaction with wild dolphins because it causes dolphins to loose their wariness of people. They cited cases where moms teach the babies to approach boats for food hand outs (the center implied that this was in replacement to teaching them to fish) and that the offered feed wasn’t the correct food for them. The more serious concern to me was that the dolphins would then be unafraid of the wrong people – people who would molest them by plugging their air holes, and worse. This is a concern that I must ponder as I head for Hawaii in August, with the hope of connection with spinner dolphins.

March 14, 2008: Your Journeys to Heal the Land. The first is a series of Journeys by Lyn Benedict to heal the Open Pit Mine and the old mining tunnels in Butte MT.

Feb 6, 2008: Journey to the reef to help a woman who is crossing over. I learn that Barracuda is helpful in escorting the souls to the other side. That there is a dark hole in the bottom of the ocean where souls cross through to “heaven”. That the heaven is very similar to place on the other side of the shimmering portal, but that it is much more deep, and that coming back is hard to do. And I have a delightful middleworld experience with my two Spotted Eagle Ray friends.

Feb 14, 2008: Valentines day and I am thankful to be alive and well. What a week. Forgive me for not posting. I have spent the last 7 days overcoming decompression sickness, otherwise known as the bends. I am exhausted and happy to be heading home on Saturday.

I spent 50 minutes swimming with the pair today. I got so close that I could see the smallest color patterns, even on their super thin tails. They were not put off in anyway, not in the least bit shy. I was close enough to touch them, but I didn’t attempt it. It just seemed incorrect to try. I have petted shanks and sting rays before. They didn’t seem to mind. I’ll have to journey to the Rays and ask them how they would like it.

Yesterday I did several sessions before starting my diving day. One was for a dog in Holland, and Spotted Eagle Ray came as a healing spirit. There are times when I want something so much that I figure I must be creating it. I thought that I had succumb to ego and was forcing the journey, but the Ray assured me I was not. And then to prove the point, the spirits started my next journey by merging me with an ostrich embryo who was trying to hatch. It was so vivid and bizarre. I was struggling to peck the shell, and felt exhausted and wanted to give up. Then I felt a surge of power in my abdomen, and I gave it one more hard peck and POP! I saw sunlight. I felt air, and my mom was there in all her glory. My siblings were chirping and I had all of life before me. How glorious! Clearly I didn’t create that – I didn’t have the foggiest idea how it connected to the client, and no sense that it was important to me. But maybe it was. Maybe I am hatching a new way of working by connecting with these reef animals.

When I was done with my clients’ journeys yesterday, I journeyed to the Eagle Rays to ask if there were anything I should be aware of when I was swimming with them. The Ray I was talking with said he preferred if I didn’t chase him. He said that it reminded him just a bit of a shark, and sharks are bad (the predator), and that he also didn’t want me to touch his tail. So I tried my best to stay along side. Once I got in front while the Ray was involved in digging, and that was a mistake. I must have startled him, as his eyes are all covered in sand when he is snouting through the bottom finding crabs. I apologized and we were fine.

I took my Reefmaster camera today, and it failed. It seemed to be taking pictures just fine, but not one recorded on the memory card. This is the third replacement camera Reefmaster has sent me in one year. As a side note, I do not recommend Reefmaster. Sniff! The pictures were so promising. I can’t replace the camera here on Bonaire. You will just have to journey to the animals to see them for yourselves. I did find some good footage on line though. Check this video out! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ohHgtyoiLY&NR=1

The neighbor came over last night completely ecstatic. He had been diving (of course) and when he surfaced a big pod of dolphins was passing by farther out in the ocean. It was impossible for him to swim with his diving gear on, so he went to the car, stripped and drove down the beach to get ahead of the pod. He went in with only his mask, fins and snorkel and swam like a mad man to reach them. There were over a 100 he said, and they played with him on the surface and under water. He is a young fellow and can free dive pretty deep. This I must do!

I journeyed to dolphin, who works with me frequently, and asked for the best plan. She said they would be passing by down town at 9:00 AM. So at 9:00 AM I was there, and sure enough, so was a small pod. I tried to swim out to them, but it was impossible. They were too far out, too far gone and the boat traffic was scary. So I came back and asked again. “Meet us at Donkey Beach.” They don’t actually say the name of the place, they show it to me. I jumped in the car, made a quick stop to get a flash card for my camera, and when I got to donkey beach one of the dolphins was at the shore! The rest of the pod was further out. By the time I geared up it was too late again.

So I asked again, and they showed me the place called The Lake. Whoosh! This time I was prepared to get in the water upon sighting, but I wasn’t prepared for them to be so far off shore that I couldn’t see them. Fortunately two young people came up and told me, “The dolphins are right in front of that boat” pointing to an approaching boat about 500-1000 yards away. The kids swam like torpedoes and met the pod. I am not that fast but I did reach the tail end of the pod. I got to swim over and near about 10 dolphins as they passed by, but none surfaced with me.

I felt an incredible energetic calm come through me as I was near them. That could have been dolphin energy, or it could have been the endorphins kicking in from my mega swim to reach them. It was nice and the dolphins were magical. I had the camera, and when there was a group very close I aimed it, but alas it didn’t take the picture. Back in the car I asked again, and they said to come again tomorrow to a different place farther north at 7:00 AM. I look forward to it!
