Welcome at Flow of Miracles

Dear People,

I already wrote a little bit about my work with animals in 2012 here, but since it's World Animal Day, I thought I'd expand that answer a little bit. We all love our pets and it's very difficult to see them suffer, be in pain or feeling like we are failing to understand why they behave like they do. So let me answer some common questions about healing animals.

What does a session look like when it's for animal instead of a person?

Since pets can't talk, I can of course not hold an intake with them. I will talk to the owner about what type of problem they have seen or what they have heard from their vet. The preparation work is the same for a human or for a pet. I look at the energy field, listen for guidance and tune into any type of messages. 

In the session itself, I can't ask the pet to take the steps during my True Unity technique. Sometimes the owner takes the steps for the animal and sometimes I tune in to see when the energy shift is done. I can tune in when the pet is in my practice, but also if the pet is just at the owners home. I often ask owners to schedule a healing time when pets are resting or relaxed so the energy can flow as easily as possible. 

For after care, I of course talk with the owner on what changes they have noticed (in behavior or in health) and if I notice the healing energy isn't flowing like I'd want to see it (at the 3 week mark) or the results aren't like we expected, I will boost it, the same as I would do for a human client.

Why would people ask for a healing session for their pet?

Behavior issues in pets can be very hard to treat. Some owners have done a lot of training, but still notice fear responses or anger responses in their pets. Healing is especially good for pets who have been abused in previous homes and continue to feel unsafe in current loving homes. I've had great success in healing trauma in humans and in animals, but while a human can talk and process changes, a pet can't. As a result of my healing pets have become more relaxed, less vocal and more playful within days of a session.

Owners also sometimes have a hard time understanding behavior in their pets. Why does their dog suddenly bark a lot or why is the cat so stressed that it's peeing in the house? Finding out exactly what's going on and treating that is a lot more helpful then general treatment for anxiety with pills or other medical interventions. It's a pity animals can't speak to us, but tuning into their energy I often get a lot of emotional impressions and guidance as to what's bothering them. While the answer can be as simple as changing a jacket that scares them, changing their food or walking times, finding that out by process of elimination is a lot harder. That's why a session can be so helpful.

And of course, just like with humans, there can be issues that regular medical care can't treat (effectively), Healing work can reduce pain when pets are allergic to pain medications or when they react badly to them by being extremely drowsy. It can also speed up healing when the body of the pet is having a hard time on it's own. Of course, healing sessions have their limits as well, so sometimes there isn't anything I can do for a pet and it's owner.

If you are wondering if I can help your pet, just ask me for a free intake. If you have another question for me send me an email or talk to me through the socials by leave a comment on my Blog, Facebook Fan Page or on Instagram.

Dear people,

September is almost over and a lot of people are back to work and study, so time for a blog post on how to remember your lessons. Even if you aren't studying, remember your life sessions is a vital way to move forward wiser and better prepared. Nothing is more annoying then making the same mistake again. In Dutch we have a saying about a donkey and a stone, but in English the saying is: |a fox is not taken twice in the same snare." So let's talk about remembering your lessons!

Connect your lessons to a memory

If it's a life lesson, you would probably remember when you learnt it. The people you were with or the situation you were in. If you keep this memory alive, you will keep the lesson alive as well. You can return to it several times and making it a core memory. 

When you are studying something, you will only have memories of you in the classroom or you studying from a book. Even so, you might connect your lessons you are learning to a memory in your life. For example: if you are studying history about wars, you might have similar conflicts in your life. Even if the situation is not 100% similar, it will help you remember. 

Create a story

Don't have a good memory to connect to? You can also make a story. Stories are wonderful mnemonic devices, which is why they have been used all through the ages. Before writing things down, oral history or story telling, was the absolute best way to remember what had happened. 

So if you are trying to keep something alive in your brain, create a story about it. Even if you have really boring mathematical formula or grammatical rules, creating a story about it is worthwhile. Sometimes people have done it already, so if you google you might find them premade, but doing the work yourself helps even more. A personal story sticks better in your memory.

I often create stories for my life lessons, not only because it helps me remember, but also because it helps me teach. Teaching stories are a time honored tradition because it's easier to remember them and to apply their lessons. You might have made some already without even realizing it or have passed down teaching stories from your parents. 

Crafting a good story is wonderful and I highly recommend it. One of my favorite

Write it down

In today's world of computers it can be hard to write things down, but actually using a pen or pencil does help your brain remember better. That's why I still carry a paper planner as well as having a bullet journal. Writing things down is a great help in remembering things even if you throw away the paper later. An easy way to notice that is when you write a shopping list, even if if you forget it at home, you remember more of what you needed then if you didn't do it. 

I personally don't like that paper isn't searchable, so often, I also digitize things for myself. I still notice that I retain more when I write it down first though. So all my prep work for clients always start as paper notes.  

Want to share your favorite ways of remembering lessons? I'd love to hear from you in the comments, or you can email me or send me a message on the Facebook Fan Page or on Instagram.

We all can use some passion, some zest and enthusiasm in our lives. Passion helps us to prioritize what matters to us, gives us heaps of energy and allows us to be vibrantly alive. For some people passion runs fast and furious, while other people need more to start feeling their passion. 

Regardless on where you are at in your passion journey, passion always helps smooth the way. So that's why today I'm writing affirmations on passion. Allow yourself to enjoy the ride that is your life.
