Life with animals is a journey of shared energy and emotion. Just as your pet looks to you for guidance and reassurance, their presence also impacts your own nervous system. This dance of co-regulation—where both you and your pet influence one another's emotional and physical states—is a cornerstone of your bond.

But let's be honest: it can be challenging. Some moments feel like harmony, where both of you are grounded and calm. Other moments feel overwhelming when stress, fear, or sadness take over. And that's okay. You don't need to be perfect, nor does your pet. What matters is showing up with compassion for yourself and for them, knowing that your connection offers a pathway to balance.

Our animals are no different from us. They respond differently to their energetic environment based on their personality, level of self-confidence, how they feel physically, their life experiences, maturity, and age. Many animals who feel ill, in pain, or in their senior years are typically more sensitive to energy shifts. When you notice shifts in their behaviour, actions, mood, or appetite, it is an excellent opportunity to do a self-check-in with your energy. Here are some steps to help you bring back harmony in your relationship.

Animals are feeling beings. They acutely feel the energy of everything, and everyone, in their surroundings. This level of energetic awareness helps them to sense and decipher their environment. Since your pet is in-tune with your internal energetic state, you often convey messages to them that you are unaware of. These silent conversations you are having with them can impact their comfort levels and how they interact with you.

Our pets are not only dependent on us for their physical well-being, they are also dependent on us for their energetic well-being. Animals are feeling beings, meaning they experience the world primarily through the energy and emotions that surround them. If you are looking to have a stronger connection with, and greater understanding of your pet, cultivating an awareness of your energetic state and surroundings is essential. 

Our animals don't speak English or any other spoken language, for that matter. They "speak" the language of energy, senses, and pure present moment awareness. When you say, "good boy," your dog isn't necessarily understanding the words; instead, they hear your tone and feel your energy of loving affection. I'll walk you through how to express gratitude in a way your pet will truly understand!

Since I’m an animal communicator, it’s often assumed that my animals must always be on their best behaviour. But, while I have the tools to speak with my animals, communicating with them can still have its challenges, especially when I am not centred myself. That’s when my animals help me to get honest with myself.

So what does autumn have to do with animal communication? Well, everything, actually. I equate autumn with the beginning of the senior years of our beloved animals. This summer, my niece took photos of my sweet boy, Bosphorus, and it wasn't until I saw the picture that I noticed he is becoming an old man. I felt a twinge of sadness when I saw his grey, and my heart had a little pang. As I thought, wow, we are now in the senior years with him.
