Your minds, individually and collectively, have created all sorts of illusions of lack and separation that makes you fearful at a very deep and basic level.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>Animals (non-human) do have egos and experience fear but because they are not trained from birth to ignore their physicality or spirituality the fear does not generally manifest into the aspects of an ego out of control.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>It\u2019s also important to remember that it is a trinity and rejecting the ego completely is not the goal.\u00a0 Coming here in physical form creates experiences for the Soul that is best served when all three components are engaged and appreciated. \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><strong>Wendy:<\/strong>\u00a0 Thank you. \u00a0That&#8217;s very helpful.<\/p>\n<p>From personal experience I know that my fears can create all sorts of stories in my head.\u00a0 None of these stories are true (or fun for that matter).\u00a0 As I have strengthened my connection to Spirit I have begun to quiet the crazy thoughts and see them for the FEAR (False Evidence Appearing Real) that they are.<\/p>\n<p>So to my reader Diane, your hypothesis \u201cdo they channel the other side more strongly and feel less lost\u201d appears to be accurate.\u00a0 Animals maintain that very important connection to Spirit (the other side) where they can be more aware of the illusion of what appears to be real here in our world.\u00a0 This combined with being grounded or anchored into their physical body seems to allow them to keep the ego more in check.<\/p>\n<p>I know from having worked with many highly sensitive empaths (HSE) that being grounded in the physical body is very important.\u00a0 Often when we begin our Spiritual awakening we see the ego as something to be rid of and in the process go so far into the spiritual or energetic realm that we leave the body behind.\u00a0 HSE\u2019s are especially prone to this because of the sometimes overwhelming feelings they experience in their body.\u00a0 However, learning to ground your body and be physically present is crucial to managing the energy aspects.<\/p>\n<p>It really all comes down to balance.\u00a0 An appreciation and regard for body, mind and spirit.\u00a0 Casting none out but appreciating that together they can create a heavenly experience here on Earth.<\/p>\n<p>What do you think?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you ever wondered how I get the information for these blogs?\u00a0 I had a reader ask me recently if I asked the animals the questions or if they just volunteered the information.\u00a0 It\u2019s yes to both. \u00a0Often I go into meditation and just ask what wants to be shared.\u00a0 Sometimes, I am curious about [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"gallery","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[50,52,1,54,55,57],"tags":[74,86,92,96,110,111,157],"class_list":["post-7481","post","type-post","status-publish","format-gallery","category-animal-communication","category-animal-spirit-messages","category-uncategorized","category-highly-sensitive-empath","category-human-energy","category-instinctual-nature","tag-body-mind-spirit","tag-ego","tag-energy-field","tag-fear","tag-highly-sensitive-empath-2","tag-highly-sensitive-person","tag-spiritual-guidance","post_format-post-format-gallery","entry","gs-1","gs-odd","gs-even","gs-featured-content-entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wendywolfe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7481","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wendywolfe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wendywolfe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wendywolfe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wendywolfe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=7481"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wendywolfe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7481\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wendywolfe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=7481"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wendywolfe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=7481"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wendywolfe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=7481"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
