Hello July

I realized that it's been a while I've written on this blog. To be honest, I've been busy with my new centre. I have just gotten back from a very interesting conference held in Warwickshire, UK. A 2 day conference called "Awakening to Animals" held in June 22-23rd. It was insightful, interesting and I love meeting like minded people. Those who do not judge and say I'm Dr. Doolittle. It isn't easy when I say that I'm an animal communicator and a canine myofunctional therapist. There were speakers that came from South Africa, the beautiful Linda Tucker who single handedly saved the white lions of timbavati. Such beautiful animals who is till today being hunted for as trophies. She was at Westminster after the conference to present arguments to make it illegal for hunted white lions be brought into English ports. Unfortunately, in Africa, it is legal to hunt these beautiful animals. So, the next thing she could do, make it illegal for those hunted lions to be brought back into the UK. If this bill gets passed, it will have a knock on effect. She made a strong argument. Today she has a White Lion Trust to protect the majestic animals.

Next speaker was Dr. Daniel Allen, and enthusiast and obsess with otters. His passion to save the otters in the UK, the extinction of certain breed of otters in the world was inspiring. I personally don't have any affiliation to otters except that they are so cute and adorable and I saw them once in Florida, in the lake, popping their heads out of the water, swimming and playing with each other. They are a treasure. After hearing from the speaker, I must admit, these are creatures that do need saving. They need our help too. You can read on Dr. Daniel Allen and his amazing works on his website: www.drdanielallen.co.uk

Then there was Liz Mitten Ryan, who lives with wild horses on her acreage in Canada. These horses are wild. This is the message excerpt  from the horses there,
"First of all, we are a privileged herd. Living as we would, in the wild- yet being loved and doted upon - is a rare occurrence in horse-human relationships. As horses, we are respected, treated as equals; our knowledge and contribution are much sort after. It is hard for people to communicate with animals when they have preconceived ideas of what is or what is not acceptable in their belief system." -Limited Edition (LE) speaking for the herd ( excerpt from Liz Mitten Ryan's book One with the herd ) It is her journey to discover spiritual awakening with the wild horses. She doesn't attempt to dominate or structure their comings and goings on her 320 acre land. They come and go as they please. These horses does the extraordinary. They release negative energies on the humans that come for healing. They are the healers. It is simply amazing to watch the film brought by Liz and her wild herd.

The next speaker was Catherine O'Driscoll. Another interesting speaker. She was talking about the dangers of over vaccination of your pets. She only found out the effects of vaccination after her 2 young dogs died because of adverse reaction to vaccines. She founded Canine Health Concern in 1994 and promotes real food and complementary healthcare options for animals. She has numerous books published one of which is "What the vets don't tell you about vaccines." You can buy the book online in Amazon or you may find it locally in the bookstores. You can read her website on www.canine-health-concern.org.uk/‎

There were other speakers there too, one who spoke about re population on panda bears in china, one who swims with orcas and dolphins and she communicates with them.

All the speakers made me realize and reinforced the thought that animals are put on earth to teach us to love, to be open and to be unconditional with our love. To not be selfish. However they get treated, they forgive just as easily. A trait very hard for humans to swallow. They get hunted, killed and yet they are gentle to humans. Isn't it time we learn from them and not demand them to behave in a specific way, to tame them is to kill us. We are indeed blinded if we close our lives to what the want to teach and give.

Next year there will be another "Awakening to Animals" held in September 2014. Go like them on FB page. The dates will be there for next year as the it escapes me currently.
