Introductory Training: Fri 2nd Oct, 6.30-8.30pm & Sat 3rd Oct, 9am-5pm
Advanced Techniques: Sun 4th Oct, 9am-1pm
Rediscover your natural ability to communicate easily with all animals with this Introductory Training in Animal Communication. The training is taught across two modules:
Module 1: Introductory Training - Friday evening & Saturday
What animal communication is, how it works, the various ways to send and receive information and the many ways to use animal communication on a daily basis. How to listen from the heart including guided visualisation techniques. Step-by-step guidance into how to receive messages, as well as how to send messages. Multiple practise opportunities, culminating in two-way conversations with one another's animals.
Module 2: Advanced Techniques - Sunday morning
What are the most common blocks that can come up when we begin practising animal communication (eg self-doubt, imagination, projection, emotional obstacles, etc) and how to overcome each of these. Practice with a wild animal, as well as with one another's animals. An in-depth session on how to work with behavioural issues - understand why animals exhibit so-called 'negative' behaviour traits, and find out how to get to the root cause of the behaviour. Step-by-step techniques on how to work with an animal to bring about effective and lasting change. End the session with a real-life 'case study' - communicate with an animal that has a behavioural issue and work with them to resolve it.
Take part on Friday evening & Saturday as a standalone training. Add the Sunday morning session if you'd like to go deeper.
