recognizing the potential of the human-animal bond Pioneering the healing connection/bond between the canine and human species. When we heal – they heal. Ask them to do more than sit. Our Mission: to recognize the potential of the canine species as ambassadors of healing trust and love. Our mission - helping to heal the world one dog at a time. There is an overriding tendency in this country to see dogs as a sub species, one that is below us, one that cannot think or feel. Yet we go to them repeatedly to fill the space in us that is void, void due to our inability to give and receive unconditional love. Let’s look again at who may be the sub species…they are capable of unconditional love, we are not. Our habits, thoughts, and assumptions placed on them, about them, can often manifest in behaviors, imbalances, and illnesses that we seek only medical advice to treat. For example; 99% of the dogs I meet are automatically commanded to “sit”, and then repeatedly told to “sit”. There is much more to a dog than their physical being, and the work we are currently doing with them not only explores these options, but is seeing profound results for their potential, healing and development.
Recognizing the Potential of the Human – Animal Energy Fields It didn’t take long for us to realize that before, during, and after therapy sessions, the energy of the human companion changed dramatically, simply by observing the therapy session of their dog. An excellent example was a client that brought her dog in for a reiki session to help balance the side effects of chemotherapy. The person was not familiar with energy work at all, but was open to the experience. She said that her dog was agitated more than normal that day and obviously wasn’t feeling well upon arrival. “I doubt she will settle down, she has been vomiting and uncomfortable for the past few days.” My goal for my clients is to allow the dog to be a dog first and foremost. I did absolutely nothing but observe and allow for the first part of her session. Within minutes she came over to me – smelled my entire face – several times and then settled in to my lap. I asked her permission to begin the session and respectfully began the work. The feeling – or energy- of the room was absolutely beautiful. And as I looked over to this dog’s person tears were silently streaming down her face. She cried for most of the session. She called me several days later to tell me that she didn’t know “what happened” during the session, but it made an incredible difference for her and her dog. She said her relationship with her dog would from that day on be different, better, and “more connected” When we become aware and acknowledge how much we affect each others energy fields an entire new world of possible healing occurs for both of us. Our combined sessions of working with you and you dog will be available once we build our center. Gentle Spirit Farm will offer this opportunity for dogs and their companions during all of our therapy sessions – be it warm water therapy, massage, or reiki, we have seen the benefits and they are remarkable.
