Ever wonder what pets or wild animals actually think about and communicate? Begin 2019 with a new skill to connect to Nature with animist Kay Lindstrom, a student animal communicator, in an all-day participatory seminar amidst the wilds of Nature at La Joya del Sol farm in the Diamante Valley. One of the attendees will be bringing their dog so Kay can lead a live demonstration. You will learn to: - Rekindle your innate ability to communicate with all forms of life, especially animals, through feeling and sensing - Perceive via feeling and sensing the supernatural powers of how alive our world really is through animism - Connect via practical and esoteric approaches to increase mutual understanding, knowing the animal’s needs, thoughts and feelings You’ll also receive a list of resources for further study and a gourmet vegan lunch provided by internationally acclaimed plant-based Chef Eric Rivkin (https://www.facebook.com/RAWJEDI)
