Four people. Two pet parents, two communicators. Different animals, different situations, different places on the journey.
And I sat with all four of them together, and something became very clear to me.
Thank you, Joanne. I really like your thread of connecting all 4 of these question, as it was becoming more obvious with each question that I read. There appears to be a 'wanting' to get it right, for the highest good of everyone involved, whenever I work with animal communication and the tie in with these questions feels very real.
My yoga teacher training reminds me in this moment to remember that non-attachment is not at all a lack of caring but an invitation to do our very best in every situation, knowing that we are truly not in control of any outcome from our service, whatever it may be at the time. For me, this allows me to relax into the moment, knowing that when I get out of the way, the pathway gets more clear and my understanding of what I receive is without the static of my own fears of not doing enough, or getting it right.
Perhaps it is possible that we are only receiving small amounts of information for a reason, so we can go back and reexamine each question more deeply when the animal is ready and more open.
Connecting the thread in this situation feels very grounded. Thank you again.
Thanks for your meaningful comment 💜. The way you've brought non-attachment into this conversation feels so right, and I'm glad you did. Because you've named something I was circling around in the piece without quite landing on directly. The wish to not let them down is real and it matters – and yet the moment it becomes grip rather than care, it changes everything about what we're able to receive.
When I get out of the way, the pathway gets more clear. I think that's one of the most honest descriptions of this work I've heard in a long time. And it comes from someone who was brave enough to send in a question in the first place.
Thank you for adding this layer. The conversation is richer for it.
