On the Right Lead: There are no Coincidences; The mind-body connection

As a little girl, I saw animals as pure and lovable creatures I watched how my touch affected wild bunnies, a little blue jay, my pet mice, horses, dogs, cats and other furry creatures that relaxed immediately. Offering them comfort and safety, were my novice attempts at intuition and my eventual path to Animal Bowen therapy and animal communication. It is an honor to be a healer, and I welcome those who look to me for guidance and peace as I release physical and emotional trauma from humans and animals; knowing how it feels to struggle, stop running, and face uncertainty and fear. I am proud to share my passage into eventual self-respect and love. Hope appeared once I abandoned internal fantasies and false beliefs about myself and others. My greatest strengths emerged when I quit searching for my path, and patiently waited for it to appear. I have not squandered my time, because everyday has been an investigative venture, never seeking nor finding any short cuts to my self–actualization. When I look in the mirror, I see an image of physical fact and an even stronger internal statement of many transitions. My arrival to the silver painted glass was not through osmosis; it dictated that I cast off outdated ideals. Some childhood beliefs still off er comfort, hence certain core principles will be with me indefi nitely, leaving me both the same and diff erent, from previous decades. From the beginning, my affinity for animals held me within the trustworthy embrace of Mother Nature, garnering a depth of self-awareness that was impossible through any other endeavor. I must confess though, my epiphany was a series of unplanned events over which I had no control. The good and the real come to us with ease, life events simply occur, and there are no coincidences. This wisdom opened the door to my true and authentic person, as I slowly removed my protective barrier, and admitted that I had a need to belong. My defensive nature gave way, and so can you.
