Communicating With Animals. We are not so different from other living beings. We have, though, over time, given priority to our intellect and our ego over our senses. I\u2019m not suggesting that we give up our intellect but a willingness to value our sensory experiences offers us a deeper appreciation of the world we live in. More joy, more love. The creatures (and plants) that we encounter experience life through their senses which are highly refined and, in fact, extraordinary. This ability allows them to receive an abundance of information that we merely try to think our way through. I’ve discovered through my years as an animal communicator that our animals have a lot they are anxious to share with us about themselves and about life.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Here are some tips and advice that I have picked up along the way to open pathways of communication and create deeper sensitive connections<\/a><\/span> with your pet. When you try \u201cspeaking their language\u201d, experience the response!<\/p>\n

Keep all mental contacts positive, wide open, unconditional and with a sense of equality.<\/p>\n

\"CommunicatingAllow only your best thoughts to pass between you.<\/p>\n

Be: friendly, admiring, respectful, encouraging, appreciative, affectionate, gentle, courteous and well-mannered.<\/p>\n

Remove everything that operates against shared interests, shared loyalties, shared consideration, and shared results.<\/p>\n

Find their finest qualities and clear out all unfavorable qualifications and judgments.<\/p>\n

Communicating With Animals<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You may hear a quiet, small voice within offering you the information you need, a sudden awareness, helpful suggestion, flash of inspiration or direction for solving a particular problem.<\/p>\n

I wish you well in this endeavor of communicating with animals<\/a><\/span>. It takes a little practice to find the clear and open place inside yourself but it is there. Relax and get out of your head!<\/p>\n
