Listening to Nature's Seasonal Changes

Image
November is a month when we may begin to notice changes in the natural world around us. The air feels different, the days become shorter, and the landscape slowly begins to change. Depending on where we live, we may notice dry leaves, new growth, changes in the weather, or different sounds coming from the trees and the birds around us. These changes can be interesting to observe, especially when we spend time connecting with nature. We often think of nature as something that surrounds us. We see trees, plants, birds, insects, and landscapes as separate parts of our environment. But when we spend time observing them, we begin to notice how everything responds to the changes around it. A tree may shed its leaves. Some plants may begin to flower. Birds may change their activity patterns. The ground may become drier, and the air may feel cooler. Each part of the landscape responds to its surroundings in its own way. Nature is constantly adapting. When we practise nature communication, thes...

Healing: From Animal's Perspective

Image
When we think about an animal healing, we often imagine a visible transformation. We imagine the frightened animal becoming confident. The withdrawn animal becoming affectionate. The rescue animal learning to trust humans. The anxious animal becoming calm. We look for signs that tell us the animal is finally okay. But what if healing doesn't always look the way we expect it to? We are often very quick to define healing from a human perspective. We decide what a happy animal should look like, what a well-adjusted animal should behave like and what progress should look like. Sometimes those expectations can be useful. But sometimes, they can also make us overlook the quieter ways an animal may be finding their way back to themselves. For one animal, healing might mean choosing to come closer. For another, it might mean feeling safe enough to walk away. One animal may become playful again. Another may simply begin sleeping peacefully. One may seek affection from humans. Another may pr...

Practising Nature Communication

Image
We spend a lot of time surrounded by nature without necessarily experiencing it. We walk past trees, sit in gardens, drive through landscapes, hear birds calling and feel the wind on our skin, but our attention is often somewhere else. We are thinking about what we have to do next, checking our phones, having conversations or simply moving from one place to another. Nature communication begins with something much simpler: slowing down enough to notice. When we approach nature with the intention of communicating, there can be a temptation to immediately look for a message. We may sit beside a tree and ask, What are you trying to tell me? Then we wait for a thought, an image or a feeling and wonder whether we have received something. But perhaps the first step is not asking for anything at all. The first step can simply be being there. Choose a tree, plant, patch of grass, rock, body of water or any part of the natural environment that catches your attention. Sit or stand comfortably nea...

Saving vs. Helping

Image
When we see an animal in distress, our first instinct is often to help. We want to make things better. We want to take the animal somewhere safe, find them a home, get them treatment, protect them from whatever has hurt them and give them the life we believe they deserve. That instinct comes from care, and there is nothing wrong with wanting to help. In fact, so much of rescue work begins with someone being unable to walk away. But sometimes, in our desire to save an animal, we can become so focused on what we think the animal needs that we forget to ask a different question: what does this particular animal actually need? Those two things aren't always the same. We may think an animal needs a new home, when what they need most immediately is time and stability. We may think they need constant affection, when they actually need space. We may believe they need to be introduced to other animals so they can have companionship, when they may be more comfortable with distance. We may th...

Experience Changes the Way We Communicate

Image
When we first begin communicating intuitively with animals, one of the most noticeable things is how uncertain everything can feel. A thought appears and we wonder, Did I actually receive that, or did I make it up? We get an image and immediately start analysing it. We feel an emotion and wonder whether it belongs to us. We receive something that doesn't seem to make sense and hesitate to trust it. This is a very normal part of learning intuitive animal communication. With experience, however, something begins to change. It isn't necessarily that the communication becomes louder, clearer, or more dramatic. In many cases, it becomes much quieter. What changes is our relationship with what we receive. When we're new to intuitive communication, we often have an idea of what communication is supposed to feel like. We may expect a clear sentence, a strong image, a distinct voice, or something that feels unmistakably different from our own thoughts. So when something subtle comes...

Do Animals Know When We Think of Them?

Image
Have you ever suddenly thought about an animal you haven't seen or spoken to in a long time, only to hear from their human soon after? It happens to me quite often. In fact, I experience this at least once or twice a week. I will suddenly think about an animal I have communicated with in the past and wonder how they are doing. Sometimes, within a short time, their human will reach out to me asking for another communication. It has happened so many times that I have become quite familiar with the experience. But every now and then, something happens that makes me stop and think about it a little more deeply. A recent example was a kitten I had communicated with back in 2018. She had been absolutely adorable. She had a very witty and funny personality, and I remember really enjoying my conversation with her. Eight years passed. Then, a few days ago (in 2026), I was thinking about her completely out of the blue. There was no particular reason for it. I hadn't been speaking to her ...

Can Animals Talk About Other Animals?

Image
When we think about intuitive animal communication, we usually imagine talking to an animal about themselves. We may ask how they are feeling, whether they are comfortable, what they need, what they like, or whether there is anything they want their human to know. But sometimes, an animal will bring another animal into the conversation. It could be another animal living in the same home, a sibling, a friend, an animal they know from outside, or even an animal who has passed away. And sometimes, we may not have asked about that animal at all. I have experienced this myself. I was travelling and speaking intuitively with one of my dogs when she suddenly mentioned that my senior dog wasn't feeling too well. This wasn't something I had asked her about. She simply brought it up. Naturally, I wanted to know more, so I spoke to my senior dog and asked her how she was feeling. She told me that she was a little low on energy, so there was some truth to what the other dog had shared. But...
