We’re breaking the ice in the buckets up here this month. I love this time of year even with the limits the weather brings. A few friends, a pot of soup, and a quiet evening, sharing the time with friends - human and animal - without any pretense of going anywhere or doing anything that costs a penny.
So often I hear people say they want to learn to listen to ther animals intuitively. Here’s a simple, at-home, do-it-yourself exercise that’s just right for cabin fever days.
Find a little time alone with your animals. Give yourself a vacation from talking out loud. Being silent, engage in your regular routine with your animals and let things unfold naturally. Don’t worry, there’s no way to get this wrong!
It may feel funny at first, but your animals will know what to do. If you hear a thought pop into your head, trust - just for fun - it’s your animal giving you a communication. Try acting on it, even if it means going to the refrigerator and pulling out a treat you thought about when you were looking at them. This will give your animal validation that you’re learning to listen. Keeping it fun and experimental will help reduce performance anxiety - one of the limiting energies for developing communicators.
From there, anything is possible - it’s all about intention and holding the lines open. Fall into the natural rhythm of listening to your animals and guiding them with your thoughts, body language and loving energy. It’s as easy as being quiet, waiting and asking. Enjoy the process!
We have choice in the energy and intention we project to others. By holding ourselves in a quiet, loving space of listening, every human has the natural skill to communicate freely with all animals. It’s fun to do this exercise, especially with cats who relish the chance to see people going here and there for them as they practice communicating in the traditional way. I hope you have fun with this and let me know how it goes.
