Kinship With Animals ~ Children's Workshop
Studying animals and knowing about them, even feeling sympathy for them isn't enough to save them from the dangers of our modern world. We need to learn how to imagine them, how to get inside of them. And being inside an animal means entering the animal's mind with our imagination, and seeing the world from their perspective. This is how telepathic communication works.
Natural telepathic communication is instinctual, intuitive, fluid and nonlinear. It is prelingual and primal. Women sometimes display this ability for intuitive communication more often than men do. However, telepathic communication transcends gender and species' boundaries. This type of communication exists between all races and is seen most often between a mother and a father and their new born baby at birth.
The art and spirit of telepathic communication is difficult to prove in a "need-to-see-proof" world. However, it is rooted in thousands of years of genetic programming.
In this 1-day clinic for children, students learn to become an animal, in a sacred way, and feel what it is like to bring the animal's message foward for the whole world to share. Animals can teach us if we are willing to listen. We will also practice:
• How to forgive an animal whose behavior is sometimes less than perfect.
• How to re-establish a broken emotional tie with an animal friend.
• How to intrepret pictures and symbols that animals send telepathically to humans.
• How to show compassion for abused or neglected animals.
Would you like to see your child build responsible relationships through animal and nature reconnecting activites?
Carole Devereux has spent many years creating and developing workshops to teach telepathy with animals and nature for both children and adults. The activities in these workshops recreate the same joy that our ancestors once enjoyed as early hunter/gatherers.
In backyards and country farms across the United States, Carole has taught these gentle techniques to help people reclaim their lost connection to animals and nature.
The American Psychological Association's Journal, "The Humanistic Psychologist" (Vol. 21, No. 3) and other professional publications report that nature-oriented programs help people build community spirit and offer avenues for personal growth. It has been observed that participants' personality and eating disorders subside after a workshop, and that learning and other cognititve abilities improve. Also the tendency toward abusiveness, violence, prejudice and other mental instabilities begin to dissolve. Continued practice is necessary, but the door has been opened.
Lying dormant, just below the surface of our human-centered awareness, is a deep, unrecognized wish to reconnect with animals and nature. During a workshop people have an experience of joy while “being in nature.” This experience is a catalyst for spiritual growth. When students practice these activities at home, they gradually create a deeper environmental connection. This helps us to rennovate our own “inner nature.” It is what brings us into balance, where we can experience pure joy and a sense of well-being that is so important for healing.
From Highland Retreat, a 10-acre home/animal sanctuary in the foothills of SW Washington, Carole conducts worskhops, counsels people and animals, and writes and illustrates books and journals.
