Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountain is going home; that wildness is necessity; that mountain parks and reservations are useful not only as fountains of timber and irrigating rivers, but as fountains of life.

Getting the Messages Your Animal Sends You
For most people who are learning intuitive communication, the hardest part is working with their own animals. Talking to your animals is pretty easy, because animals are masters at receiving whatever we send to them. But getting information back from your animals is harder. To start out, try the talking experiment. You should get some good results quickly.
Talking Experiment:
Talk to your animal out loud as if he or she can understand you just as a person would. Discuss issues, problems, upcoming events. Make requests and tell your animals how you want them to behave. Ask them to show you that they understand. Then keep a journal, a record, of what changes happen. Do this for two weeks and suspend your disbelief. See if you don't become thoroughly convinced that animals really can hear and understand us. By the way this works if you just send mental thoughts and images or mental movies as well. Tell me how it turns out and suggest this to your friends.
Receiving Information
This is far more difficult. We know so much about our own animals that we think any impressions we get when we talk with them are just things we made up.
Getting a Response Experiment:
Every day ask your animal one of the following:
Do you have a question for me?
Do you have a message for me? Or
Do you have an opinion about (fill in a subject here)?
After you ask for the information, close your eyes and become aware of whatever impressions pop into your head. Assume these thoughts or feelings or images are from your animal and respond accordingly. For example, whatever question pops into your head, assume it is from your animal and answer it as best you can. You can then ask for another question, until your animal runs out of questions. Write everything down in your notebook because tracking the information is a critical step in recognizing that your animal is in fact sending you messages.
If nothing happens when you ask for a question, message or opinion, make something up. I know that seems weird and phony, but the point of it is to get the flow going and to jump start your intuition. It will work, trust me. Above all, your role is to accept the information without critiquing it. Just record what you get and see if over time you start getting questions, messages, and opinions that you know must have come from your animals. If you stick with this it will work and you will become fluent at talking with your own animals.

I made these about six months ago, which was before I dropped thirty pounds, so I look a bit thinner now, I've been trying to lose weight most of my life with little success. Then I discovered Alkalete, an alkalinizing supplement by Yoli. It helped me lose weight and get healthier in a number of ways. If you want to find out more read here.

Here's a great story from one of my clients about how talking to your animal really works:
I didn't realize how fast a quarter horse could spin until I took Rosie out in the traffic for the first time. When a quarter horse moves your surroundings blur for a nano second and then as if by magic you are standing in a different place to where you were a moment before. It's like quantum physics on four legs. Amazing. Especially for someone like me who had never ridden a quarter horse before.
When I first met Rosie I was struck by the expression of gentle resignation in her eyes. She was dearly loved and well looked after by her owners who had trained and successfully competed her in reining but she looked as though she was way over sliding stops and turning circles. She did everything her owner asked her to do and although he barely used the spurs and western bit she was well aware that they were there. Her reining days were over and her owners were thrilled that she was going to a new life of pleasure riding in paddocks and on trails and beaches. So was she. I promised her she would never be pushed again. No spurs, no bits.
When Rosie arrived I gave her time to adjust. I settled her in with a few gentle paddock rides but could hardly wait to get her to the beach. I didn't have a horse float yet and in my eagerness decided to ride her the seven kilometers to the beach.
As we set off along the main road, the only way to the beach, I thought I should explain to her where we were going. Anyone not familiar with animal communication would have thought I was crazy, but I didn't care.
And so I spoke softly to Rosie. I told her about the beach and how it was made of something like dirt but it was soft and pale and called sand. I told her it would feel soft under her hooves and there were no stones to bruise her. I told her about the ocean. How it would be the biggest water she had ever, ever seen. It was as big as the sky, I told her - and it changed color when the sky did. Today it would be bright blue. I spoke to her about the waves and the soft, rushing noise they made as they lapped the shore and how cool and frothy it would feel on her legs on this hot day.
In between the wild spins as the next lot of traffic passed she listened intently. Her ears twitched backward and forward, picking up my words as they were translated in the ether. After many more jumps and spins we made it to the beach. Even after my talking I thought her first sight of the ocean could be overwhelming. She had such a hard time dealing with the traffic I couldn't anticipate what she would think of the edge of the earth.
I slipped off her back to let her know I was beside her. As I led her down the track to the beach a beautiful calm came over both of us. She paused, her eyes full of wonder, like a little child as she saw the ocean for the first time. She slowly and calmly stepped her way down to the water. I led her in and she followed me with complete trust. We were both drenched and played and jumped around in the waves. There was not another soul on the beach, except for the birds. It was paradise.
When we came out of the water I jumped off a sand dune onto her back and we rode along the sand. A huge eagle came out from the cliff to observe us. Rosie stopped and looked. I reassured her she was too big to be carried away. She wasn't quite as confident to go in the water without me leading the way, but I found if we went in on an angle it was less daunting. If one of the waves was too scary she could scuttle out sideways like a crab instead of having to take it face on. But by the end of the ride she was happy to go past the little waves and into deeper water, bounding and splashing as she chose.
The ride back was just as treacherous as the ride there and we jumped and spun for another seven kilometers but we had the magic of the beach in us, so we arrived home exhausted, happy and safe.
With both of us bathed and fed, as I drifted off to sleep I had a realization that made me wonder about my intelligence. Why had I told Rosie everything she needed to know about the beach and nothing about the traffic which was just as foreign to her? She had been trucked from her home to reining arenas. She knew about the inside of vehicles but had never seen them as traffic, flying past on roads.
So the conversation on the next ride went something like this.........
'Rosie, I know the cars and trucks and bikes and buses look and sound scary but you have to trust me on this one. I love you and I would never, ever let anything hurt you. As long as we stay on the verge and we don't jump up onto the road nothing will happen. They will drive past us and we will just keep riding along. We are safe together, you and I, we look after each other.....'
On that ride Rosie's ears twitched backwards and forwards, listening intently, as we calmly made our way along the road to the beach.....

People often email or call to ask if it is OK to give my number and email out to someone in need of a communicator. Please feel free to refer me as much as you like - that is how I get most of my business. Also, I am doing lost animals, so you can refer for that as well. My fee for lost animals is very reasonable compared to most other communicators, and my results are very good.
