Today’s session with the farrier was a reminder of the importance of being there for our animals (and our selves and our friends) in a place of acceptance and without judgment. My mare Mariah was having a hard day. She can be a handful when she is feeling out of sorts…or if she feels my inner out-of-sortness. Today, she was sure that getting her hooves trimmed was not a good idea. Fortunately, her farrier Hannah accepts Mariah where she is in any given moment. She doesn’t need to make … [Read more...]
How powerful are you?
The experience I shared last week in my blog demonstrates the power of our energy on our animals and I would venture to say on much more than that.

This morning I had an amazing experience with the dogs during my meditation that demonstrates so clearly how we impact our animals with our own emotions and energy.

A reminder that I am not alone in … [Read more...]
When Struggle is a Good Thing
My goat, Ghost, taught me about the process of dying. I knew he was uncomfortable, struggling and I wanted to help him. I wanted him to no longer be in pain. I wanted to “fix” it. But when I asked about helping him cross over with our medicine he refused the help. He wanted to experience the process of dying. He taught me a great lesson...to be with the experience rather than to avoid it. For him this process was as much a part of living as when he was playing with his buddies, jumping … [Read more...]
