We all want to better understand and relate to our pets and our pets do the best they can to navigate our world and language when they live with us. What we don't realize is the depths that our animals communicate back to us with their body. Becoming familiar with the role of their body language in your communication with them will ensure that their important messages won’t be missed. Let me teach you how to learn your pet’s distinct body language!

Up until Soulstice’s spay, every pet I have ever had spayed or neutered has gone without any issues. Soulstice's experience was different and I would like to share with you what I have learned from the experience.

Grief expands your existing emotional repertoire. You can choose how you want it to join you. It can close you off from yourself and others as you try to hide and protect yourself from it, or it can deepen your empathy for yourself and others. Grief is felt on a deep soul level. It is a journey that is unique to each individual, yet, the intensity of the journey is common to all of us, which allows for connection and understanding.

When we view our animals as having a soul, we can reach inside for more profound gratitude and appreciation for our time with our beloved pets and the amazing gifts we received. If we remain open to love and gratitude in this time of deep grief, we can walk through our pain from their loss and find courage, healing, and a new self we never knew we had.

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.

From my experience working with animals, they ALWAYS have a reason for their behaviour and come up with what they think is the best way to get their message across. Most of the time, their way of getting their message across doesn't make sense to us, but it makes perfect sense to them! Humans are masters of blocking, avoiding and living in our heads/thoughts and worry. We must give our pets credit for helping us take accountability for our emotions!

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.

Behavioural issues are not always what they seem! They can be caused by physical pain, emotional issues, rescue trauma, abuse, injury, fear, misunderstanding, trying to get our attention, and mirroring of their person, just to name a few. Animal communication can make it easier to get to the root of the behaviour and discover why they are acting the way they are.

The only thing for certain is that an animal's behaviour always makes perfect sense to them!
