Practice accountability and earn free session with Val – Feb 17-23, 2018

Week Seven: Barb Grout
1. Did you meditate this week? If so, about how much time total did you spend meditating? What meditations did you do? If you didn’t meditate, why didn’t you?
I attended a meditation retreat this week so I have practiced 3 to 4 hours each day for 5 days. The golden nugget from this is to do meditation not for myself but as a gift and service. It is much sweeter this way.

2. Did you connect with the intention to communicate with an animal this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not?
1. Wilson chases older cat Isabel and she hisses at him. Wildon wishes she would play with him but knows she can’t be flexible. He decided he could chase the little boy in the house and have me ask if Noah, the boy could play chase the feather. Wilson loves to play and run. I thanked him.
2. Aslan: missing animal since 9/2015. He told me he was happy. I feel he is in spirit but I don’t know if that is accurate.

3. What would you like to celebrate about your journey in learning how to communicate with animals this week?
I asked my Master healer to send healing to Vincent and between the patches (which Ana is doing) and the Master healer, Vincent is better.

4. What challenges or questions do you have about communicating with animals this week?
The challenge is whether Aslan is in spirit or not and the fact that I can’t tell. Gina presented two animal pictures (one in spirit) and I also got that wrong.
When I rush and blindly guess answers, they are never correct.

5. Did you communicate this week with the Featured Animal of the Month (FAT)? If so, what happened? If not, why not? If you did, please post your results communicating with the featured animal in the Discussion of that animal if you have not already done so.
Yes. He is healing. (See above). Vincent is definitely a teacher!
I posted a conversation I had with him in his discussion.

6. Did you play one of the Intuition Games (see the games information within the Animal Talk Club Gold/Silver membership resources) this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not? I continue to fail at the marble game when I rush. When I take the time to feel the energy of each marble I am more accurate but so want to just know the answer in a second. I don’t see any colors.

1. Did you meditate this week? If so, about how much time total did you spend meditating? What meditations did you do? If you didn’t meditate, why didn’t you?
Started again my short sessions spread over the day.

2. Did you connect with the intention to communicate with an animal this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not?
Tried to find the stray dog, who recently had decided he likes my house and the food he gets in there. Due to real bad weather he had stayed indoors from Friday evening until Sunday noon. Then I let all the dogs out and as usual he jumped over the fence to visit all his friends. Haven’t seen him since. My impression is he was run over by a big car. However I can’t confirm this impression, because I couldn’t find him anywhere.

I connected to the 2 dogs Gina had posted checking which of them had transitioned and which was still alive and got it correct. Looking at the pictures my guess was the other way round, but after connecting I felt one of them as rather light and the other one as more heavy and substantial.

3. What would you like to celebrate about your journey in learning how to communicate with animals this week?
I received 100 USD donation from a lady who had asked me to connect with her cat. I was very happy, because at present I even have to borrow money to be able to pay for the animal food.

4. What challenges or questions do you have about communicating with animals this week?
Nothing specific.

5. Did you communicate this week with the Featured Animal of the Month (FAT)? If so, what happened? If not, why not? If you did, please post your results communicating with the featured animal in the Discussion of that animal if you have not already done so.
No time.

6. Did you play one of the Intuition Games (see the games information within the Animal Talk Club Gold/Silver membership resources) this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not?
Tried to feel colors and got most of them wrong again.

1. Did you meditate this week? If so, about how much time total did you spend meditating? What meditations did you do? If you didn’t meditate, why didn’t you?
I’ve meditated every day for around 15 to 20 minutes. I have used Val’s meditations from the last Live Q&A and from the beginners course and one I found online to realese some anger. Traffic in my city is horrible. It can take me one hour and a half to get back home and it frustrates me because is time I am wasting stuck in a car. I get home too tired to do all the things I want to do. I’m working on not getting angry but I’m having a hard time.

2. Did you connect with the intention to communicate with an animal this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not?
Yes, I was able to connect with Dulce, Priscilla, Noni, Rufus and Minnie. When I set the intention to conncet with an animal I feel it it easier and I worry less about being able to connect.

3. What would you like to celebrate about your journey in learning how to communicate with animals this week?
Gina started a game on facebook. I connected with both animals and was able to tell who is in spirit and who is still here. Also when communicating with Dulce, what I got was very simmilar to what the other fellow animal lovers got from her. It all helps to trust myself.

4. What challenges or questions do you have about communicating with animals this week?
I am working on visualising in a more vivid way. I am trying to get better at explaining Vincent where I am going, when I’ll be back and what he can do while I am away. I’m having a bit of trouble because I am not sure how to ask him to do something. I often found myself imagining him doing what I don’t want him to do. If I want to ask him to stop licking his paws, the image I get is of him licking his paws. I’m obviously sending him the wrong message. I’m working on this.

5. Did you communicate this week with the Featured Animal of the Month (FAT)? If so, what happened? If not, why not? If you did, please post your results communicating with the featured animal in the Discussion of that animal if you have not already done so.
I’ ve been Doing the patch healing technique on him and Barb has been helping him heal too. He no longer limps, his throat isn’t as congested as it was and he told us he feels stronger. We still have some work to do. Every time I leave, I’ve been trying to explain him what to do, where I’m going and when I’ll be back. I don’t know if I’ve been successful with this.

6. Did you play one of the Intuition Games (see the games information within the Animal Talk Club Gold/Silver membership resources) this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not?
No. Work has been hard these days so I haven’t had time. But I’ll pick one for next week.

Computer still on the blink so I have to work quickly and make do.

Meditation?

Lots every morning and sometimes in the middle of the night. Lately, adding Trust-
Technique present moment. Loving it.

Communicate?

Have been practicing Trust Technique on Aspen, not reacting to her barking at possums and sharing the quiet present. It seems to be helping. She still barks but not as long or as often. Had to go out and leave her home. She heard my communication that I’d be back soon and for her to take care of the house. She backed off and didn’t even follow me to the door. She did not remember my request that she stay either in the house or back yard. She was in the front yard when I got home. Since front and back yards are separated by fences, I worry her way to circumvent the fencing might be dangerous for her.

Celebrate?

Very excited about the Trust Technique. It deepens my connection for communicating. It helped me release a block I’d been carrying since age 2 when I decided I couldn’t trust myself. Very freeing for my communication work!

Challenges?

Learning to trust myself and Life.

FAT?

Did not find the time but am eager to do so soon.

Games?

Again, been busier than usual so no.

1. Did you meditate this week? If so, about how much time total did you spend meditating? What meditations did you do? If you didn’t meditate, why didn’t you?
Yes, I meditated this week. I am happy to say that I practiced walking meditation, twice, this week. What a difference it was to my regular, normal routine of sitting meditation.
With walking meditation, I don’t’ know how to describe it but I literally felt the energy from all the trees. I was in awe and didn’t want to lose my connection; therefore, took it very slowly to observe each vibration. Including my connection with Kitty was amazing. I could speak and control her speed from my inner knowing without verbalizing it. More importantly, I realized what it meant to be “in your head” 24/7 and understanding why it’s hard for people to energetically connect with animals. Albeit, meditating at home is great but walking meditation was truly extraordinary.
2. Did you connect with the intention to communicate with an animal this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not?
I did not try and connect with an animal this week. However, when I came onto this web page, I felt an energetic pull from Vincent’s picture. I had a feeling of playfulness.
3. What would you like to celebrate about your journey in learning how to communicate with animals this week?
I’d like to celebrate my journey with Kitty. The more I try to communicate or any of my classmates try to communicate with her; the more, she herself, tries to communicate in return. I LOVE IT!!!
In addition, in the past, when I tried to communicate with another animal; she walks into the room and lays down. I don’t know how to interpret that since I don’t want to assume it is jealousy; therefore, brush it off with a laugh and disconnect out of respect.
4. What challenges or questions do you have about communicating with animals this week?
No questions or challenges. I’m beginning to understand “how” I receive messages.
5. Did you communicate this week with the Featured Animal of the Month (FAT)? If so, what happened? If not, why not? If you did, please post your results communicating with the featured animal in the Discussion of that animal if you have not already done so.
No I did not. My family and I live in an apartment building. I noticed that I may be picking up on other energies since the walls are thin; therefore, I’ll wait for my neighbors to leave. By then, I’m doing things and forget.
6. Did you play one of the Intuition Games (see the games information within the Animal Talk Club Gold/Silver membership resources) this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not?
Yes, I have played the intuition Game. I enjoy playing the card game and still at an introductory level. Nonetheless, this game has shown me how the colors pop up in my head. In the past, I thought the images had to come up the way I used to receive information and the way the other students have been receiving them. Given that, I’ve been practicing, I noticed I don’t pick up on the images the way others are saying they get them. I believe I receive them through colors. It’s quite fascinating. I’m also writing down when I don’t trust my instinct. That’s been very helpful to know how much I’ve been right than wrong. Love the game. Love the practice. Love it all!!

1. Did you meditate this week? If so, about how much time total did you spend meditating? What meditations did you do? If you didn’t meditate, why didn’t you?

Still sitting in silence for as long as possible. I don’t feel like I’m making any progress with this, so I may find something different to try, at least for a while.

2. Did you connect with the intention to communicate with an animal this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not?

Tried to connect with Armi (the armadillo). As I mentioned on Facebook, after finding a skeleton that I didn’t recognize in the hay field one morning last week, I later got the feeling that (s)he was in spirit already, and haven’t been able to get messages. Yesterday I found some new digging that looked like Armi’s “artwork”, so I’m not sure if (s)he’s still here or not. Any help with this would be appreciated.

3. What would you like to celebrate about your journey in learning how to communicate with animals this week?

I’m starting to see flashes of color, just for an instant and then they’re gone. I tend to think this is the start of a good thing!

4. What challenges or questions do you have about communicating with animals this week?

Checking to see if Armi is still here or not.

5. Did you communicate this week with the Featured Animal of the Month (FAT)? If so, what happened? If not, why not? If you did, please post your results communicating with the featured animal in the Discussion of that animal if you have not already done so.

I tried just before I posted this. No response came to me.

Report for Week 4 Feb 17-23
1. Did you meditate this week? If so, about how much time total did you spend meditating? What meditations did you do? If you didn’t meditate, why didn’t you?
Yes, but I was not as consistent as I would like. There were two days I did not meditate in the morning (it was too cold). All meditations were self-directed. Total time was approximately three hours.
2. Did you connect with the intention to communicate with an animal this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not?
Yes, I attempted to connect with the rooster, Harry. I found it difficult to connect with him but after three times I was finally successful.
3. What would you like to celebrate about your journey in learning how to communicate with animals this week?
I deliberately wanted to challenge myself to communicate with a non-domestic animal like rooster Harry. I have also been attempting to connect with the rabbit and the two doves who come looking for food in the backyard.
4. What challenges or questions do you have about communicating with animals this week?
Was it just a coincidence that my communication with rooster Harry succeeded after I sang to him?
5. Did you communicate this week with the Featured Animal of the Month (FAT)? If so, what happened? If not, why not? If you did, please post your results communicating with the featured animal in the Discussion of that animal if you have not already done so.
I communicated with Vincent last week. I was very pleased that the birds he was showing me were from his time on the balcony!
6. Did you play one of the Intuition Games (see the games information within the Animal Talk Club Gold/Silver membership resources) this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not?
I reviewed some of the suggestion games and they did not seem as interesting to me. I continue to use cards to guess the number or face card. My results using a deck of tarot cards were actually better, 4 right out of 15, but with an ordinary deck of playing cards my results have been awful, 1 right out of 12 cards.

 1. Did you meditate this week? If so, about how much time total did you spend meditating? What meditations did you do? If you didn’t meditate, why didn’t you? Just been doing a few minutes per day.
2. Did you connect with the intention to communicate with an animal this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not? My mind is screwed up…or I should say my mind has been screwed up for decades and I am at the end of my rope. There is so much stirring inside me and it has been zapping my energy. I am doing some inner work and that is where my focus is right now.
3. What would you like to celebrate about your journey in learning how to communicate with animals this week? Nothing to celebrate!
4. What challenges or questions do you have about communicating with animals this week? Because of my mental state the challenge is not getting into the focus I need.
5. Did you communicate this week with the Featured Animal of the Month (FAT)? If so, what happened? If not, why not? If you did, please post your results communicating with the featured animal in the Discussion of that animal if you have not already done so.
6. Did you play one of the Intuition Games (see the games information within the Animal Talk Club Gold/Silver membership resources) this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not? Had a few minutes with a beautiful German Shephard waiting on his human in a car in the parking lot; she was talking up a storm. I don’t have the wherewithal to write it now.

Feb 23, 2018 3:28pm

1. Did you meditate this week? If so, about how much time total did you spend meditating? What meditations did you do? If you didn’t meditate, why didn’t you? Yes i meditated 4 times this week. Still enjoying a blue moon meditation i found on utube. 20 minutes or so each one.

2. Did you connect with the intention to communicate with an animal this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not? Yes. I merged with my totem bear this week. We did not have thought communication but joined energies. I felt like I got to know him from his energy. Majestic and gentle at the same time.

3. What would you like to celebrate about your journey in learning how to communicate with animals this week? Being more relaxed in the moment. My dog shows me all the time she understands what I say in thought or out loud to her. I feel her saying yes to me when I ask her questions. I finally realized her communication is not with pictures or thoughts but with emotions. Now I understand that.

4. What challenges or questions do you have about communicating with animals this week?
I need more patience in waiting for a response.

5. Did you communicate this week with the Featured Animal of the Month (FAT)? If so, what happened? If not, why not? If you did, please post your results communicating with the featured animal in the Discussion of that animal if you have not already done so. Not yet.

6. Did you play one of the Intuition Games (see the games information within the Animal Talk Club Gold/Silver membership resources) this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not? Cards. Can feel face cards and black and white well. Not good sensing other colors yet.
