Quotes

My primary purpose is to be a listener of animals, and sharing what they wish to share.

Maia Kincaid Ph.D.,
animal communicator
We have to be with the animal, rather than to think about agendas or overthink things. ... Being with each other is the seat of a relationship, but it’s also the seat of communication on a much deeper level.

James French,
founder of the «Trust Technique»
When animals or people are linked to each other – a mother and a baby or a dog and its owner – then they move apart: This connection, the field that links them is still there, it is stretched like a stretched elastic band. A change in one will affect the other. That’s the basis for telepathic communication within social groups.
