LF was concerned about her 5 year old English Mastiff, recently diagnosed
with a neurological disorder of his spine, making him wobbly on his back
end and causing his legs to fall out from under him.

Carla’s healing journey:

“We did a lot of healing work! The spirits put him in a muddy bog and the spirit of
the earth extracted the illness from him. A beautiful cloud spirit cried
on him, and her healing tears flowed through his body. The spirit of a
bushy willow plant merged with him and will be a power spirit for him.
The roots will cleanse the illness from him, and the leaves will gather
the healing power of the sun. It was INCREDIBLE to watch these loving
spirits fill him with their power.”

The spirits also gave Carla detailed directions for diet and herbs to
be given to Pellie.

LF responds: “Thank you, it is a wonderful reading. We will be doing all that you recommend……Wanted you to know that he was 100% himself on Sunday and we were so glad. He even played with his toys……I just listened to the tape and let
me tell you, it was a beautiful and deeply moving experience. I understand
what to do and how committed you are to my Pellie and all life.”

Jark with Kolur

This explains why my eye is blurry and itchy. Jark and I get symbiotic symptoms. When he was a youngster he stepped on a nail. I was at work in town, but my foot cramped up and started stinging. When I got home I found out why – it was nasty. As he healed so did my foot. Fortunately the coincidence isn’t consistent. When the flies got his sheath last summer I personally was fine!

I am not taking on Jark’s troubles. We simply live in the same energetic field. We are connected, and when he hurts my field senses it and sometimes my body mirrors it. I hurt because he hurts, but he is not “doing” anything to me, nor am I trying to help him by taking his suffering from him.

I think this is a really important thing to understand. Many people ask me if their personal problems are making their animals sick. They often feel guilty, which only makes the situation worse. People also ask if their animal is trying to help them when the animal mirrors a person’s pain. “Are they trying to take the pain away from me?”. There is no absolute answer to this, as some animals are martyrs. But most are not. Most animals mirror our pain because we are so close that we share energy, just like intermingling branches of trees.

So how can you help a suffering animal who may be mirroring you?

First: Get the animal to the best Vet you know, and give the animal every bit of allopathic, shamanic and energetic medicinal support you can.

Second: Do whatever you can to avoid “projecting” your own stuff. Ask the helping spirits to put a protective shield between you and the animal, so that any pain you may be experiencing is neutralized before it reaches them. Ask the animal’s spirit allies to protect them as well.

Third: Do whatever you can to heal yourself. The mirror works both ways. Your healing helps the animal heal. His healing helps you heal.

And finally: If the animal is indeed playing martyr, let them know that it isn’t really helping you, and that it is in fact making everything worse because now both of you are unhappy! If they are well it will help you get well too. See step three!

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.
