–> It’s Time to Practice with the Accountability Game!
Ready to earn special bonus private coaching time with Val? Here’s how:
One of the most important things to help you stay on track with your goals is to be accountable on a regular basis. To help you with that, once a week please answer these simple questions listed below.
This practice is designed to help you become more consciously aware of your journey, to celebrate your successes and share any perceived “failures” so they can be acknowledged, healed and cleared. Mistakes are a necessary part of the journey. There are no right answers here and this is not a test. Just do your best. Doing this exercise will help you improve your skills and be more consciously aware at all times. Remember this is a journey, not a destination. The idea is for you to stay conscious and make progress.
NOTE: All students are invited to play, but only Gold and Platinum Club Members are eligible to earn the Accountability private Coaching Session Awards (value $125).
Here’s how Gold and Platinum Members earn your sessions:
1) Stay Accountable. Each week there will be a new Accountability Discussion for the time period of Saturday through Friday to which you can post any day of the week. You are invited to report on you efforts, progress and frustrations during the week since your last post. You don’t have to have perfect results. It is more important that you are trying, taking action and sharing what’s happening for you.
2) When you’ve completed 12 consecutive weeks of accountability posts you will receive an email from the Coaching Club Moderator with the Subject “Congratulations – you’ve earned a coaching session with Val.” This email will be sent after the new week’s Accountability Discussion has been posted to the Forum. If you miss a week, just start your count over the next week.
3) In the Congratulations email, you’ll receive instructions on how to schedule. Use your time for animal communication mentoring, healing, and/or Val’s help working with your own animal(s).
4) Post each week during the Saturday to Friday timeframe. All posts are automatically time stamped and should align with the appropriate week to apply toward earning a free session with Val. Note: You can’t wait for 3 months then do 12 week’s worth of reporting in 1 week! Having the practice over time will strengthen your Animal Communication intuitive muscles.

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? After a stressful two weeks I am getting back on track with daily meditation 1 hour in the morning and at least 15 minutes at night. Oprah and Deepak Chopra have been hosting a daily meditation for the past two weeks and I have done a few of those as well.
2. Did you connect with the intention to communicate with an animal this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not? I have intended to connect with a cat named Romeo about his past life connection with Geo, his person. I have not been able to connect with him. I’ll post next week.
3. What would you like to celebrate about your journey in learning how to communicate with animals this week? Knowing it is truly the work I have been led to do.
4. What challenges or questions do you have about communicating with animals this week? Emotional upset with family members doesn’t allow me to connect with animals.
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 with that animal if you have not already done so. Yes! She gave me a lecture!
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 time this week.

1) Did you meditate this week? Yes I did meditate every other day this week. The last meditation I did was the “goo” meditation taught by Val re Reiki.
2) Did you connect with the intention to communicate with an animal this week? Not really, my excuse is that I haven’t been still long enough to focus on getting in a good open, clear space to be successful. It seems the animals break through to me easier than I can get a response from them, but then I haven’t really tried very much – probably a little fear of failure involved.
3) What would you like to celebrate about your journey in learning how to communicate with animals this week? There is a very alpha dog at the park that has chosen me, hunts me down and his owner’s are amazed because he doesn’t normally do that. I know it is b/c I know who he is, I really see him and all of his magnificence and respect it. Think he was in the Praetorian Guard in his past life – only sort of kidding!:) They haven’t found anyone that can deal with them when they leave town – maybe I’ll get that chance:)
4) What challenges or questions do you have about communicating with animals this week? I would like to know how quickly others can shift into a space of communication and if I can get some tips about that.
5) Did you communicate with the FAT for this month? Did you play one of the games handout this week? No but hope to today. I have my own intuitive games that are in my everyday life:)
Hi everyone. I'm so excited about meeting more of you. I'm struggling a little with the web site but that is on me - it seems great! I work with dogs and grew up on horses, don't know much about cats but hope to learn.

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, sound meditations, Val’s stress busting meditation, and 2 enchanted Forrest meditations, ranging from 5 to 30 minutes each.
2. Did you connect with the intention to communicate with an animal this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not?
Yes, I connected with my friends dog who was anxious in the car. She was a rescue and was worried every time she got in the car she would have to go to a new home. I reassured her and her mom will explain where they are going ahead of time and reassure her that she will go and also return with them.
3. What would you like to celebrate about your journey in learning how to communicate with animals this week?
Tina was jealous of the Baby and I am seeing her softening on this and forming her own relationship with the Baby. I was leading Tina back to her pasture and the baby ran up and whinnied at Tina and I could tell that it touched Tina. I told Tina, isn’t that sweet? Your sister Loves you !! The Baby is shedding her newborn coat and is turning the same color as Tina. I told Tina the baby will look like you. She seemed to like that. A new baby was a big change for the herd especially Tina and everyone is settled and bonded with Star.
4. What challenges or questions do you have about communicating with animals this week?
Being sure of the connection and Maggie helped me with 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 with that animal if you have not already done so.
Yes I did and have really enjoyed Maggie and her wonderful advise.
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 have been trusting my intuition more and going with what I receive. Still in the right brain Left Brain battle.

I did daily exercises for mindfulness and presence
2. Did you connect with the intention to communicate with an animal this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not?
Finally, I managed to get Wuschel back out of her shell. She starts trusting me again, but towards her sisters and the kittens (including her own) she is still very aggressive. Unfortunately, I will have to take her to the vet again tomorrow to remove the stitches. I keep reassuring her that this is not so bad and that it is the last step before she can go outside again.
3. What would you like to celebrate about your journey in learning how to communicate with animals this week?
Nothing new
4. What challenges or questions do you have about communicating with animals this week?
I had some bad happenings in my life that kept my mind occupied (2 weeks ago a colleague, with whom I had contact nearly every day, died unexpectedly from a heart attack and the only person in the house with him at that time was his 15 year old daughter and yesterday a colleague from my group went home for lunch and called in shortly after to ask for a few days leave, because her brother just died suddenly). It made it difficult for me to focus on anything else.

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 did meditate. I did a daily 15 minute Morning and Evening Meditation and also did four of Val’s wonderful meditations (Experience Becoming The Animal x 2/ Gratitude Meditation/ Prayers of the Heart.)
2. Did you connect with the intention to communicate with an animal this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not?
Yes, I did. I connected with 2 small black and white birds in my yard. I sat quietly after doing a meditation and these 2 birds just came over and sat very close to me. They spoke to me about trust. One of them told me that they both trust me and that I should trust in myself. In this space and in that moment I felt so connected to these birds. I felt their sense of freedom and also experienced being fully present.
3. What would you like to celebrate about your journey in learning how to communicate with animals this week?
I would like to celebrate that I spent more time than usual meditating.

I used a deck of animal cards. For some reason, a donkey came to mind. I picked a card and it was a zebra. Then I asked my husband to pick a card and it was a donkey.

2. Did you connect with the intention to communicate with an animal this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not?
yes, I have communicated with a butterfly, a deer, my own 3 cats (living and in heaven) Yesterday I said hello to a gorgeous cat by face time when talking to a friend. The cat said he really wanted some time to connect with me and visited energetically later that evening. I had a wonderful chat with the cat who said he had a great life but he wanted more chats about interesting things- that he was a healer and teacher and wanted more interesting chats about this. He suggested I came to his (families) stable and hold events. Then the familie´s horse showed up and said the same thing. They offered to do some healing work on me and brought in a bunch of horses from the stable. It was a super strong healing experience and I felt sooooo blessed being able to hear them and receive from them.3. What would you like to celebrate about your journey in learning how to communicate with animals this week?
This supercool healing event where they helped me to let go of some deep trauma energies.4. What challenges or questions do you have about communicating with animals this week?

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 did much better this week. Last Saturday I had a “distant” Reiki client. Reiki is a meditation for both the client and the practitioner. When I do Reiki remotely – there is no such thing as distance – I go as deeply as I can into mediation moving beyond the limitations of time and space to offer Reiki to the client. It was a very powerful session, for both of us.
I was on a teleconference with Susann which included several journeys, her meditations so 3 meditations Tuesday night. On other days I have taken time to sit quietly and bring in the energy.2. Did you connect with the intention to communicate with an animal this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not? I continue to connect with my animals and seem to know what they want sometimes without “hearing” them.
3. What would you like to celebrate about your journey in learning how to communicate with animals this week? I can celebrate more meditation as I know that is part of the process.
4. What challenges or questions do you have about communicating with animals this week? I used to be so good at this. I did not consciously learn it – it just happened. It no longer just happens.
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 with that animal if you have not already done so. No – busy week and I just did get to it other than informally tuning in to Maggie as I was falling asleep but I just fell asleep.

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, briefly. I’m not sure how long. I thanked the Universe for certain things and asked the Universe for certain things.

My new boss at work was telling me today about how he doesn’t sleep well sometimes due to having so much on his mind.

Later, while I was on break, he came to me wanting to know more, so I verbally walked him through how to get started. He said he would try it.

MEDITATIONS: TYPES, TIMES
Daily am or pm: an am (preparing for the new day) or pm (close of day) 20-minute guided chakra clearing meditation. Conscious breathing: zen or square. Listened to a Joel Levey CD on self-guided meditation; disappointing because it was nothing like the meditations Val adapts from a Joel and Michelle book.
INTENTION TO CONNECT AND COMMUNICATE WITH AN ANIMAL
So many unsuccessful attempts with my indoor and outdoor cats, Jax, and Robin S’s Maggie. Probably anxiety and impatience interfere.
CELEBRATE Nothing in AC.
CHALLENGES, QUESTIONS
The mother-and-daughter cats, Julie-Belle and Janie-Kate, seem okay outside after almost three weeks, but I wonder why the former has chosen to stay on the front porch since a few days ago. (I’ve also seen her walking up and down the sidewalk.) She and Rosalie, the feral cat, eat peacefully together from the same dish. Neither was surprised or upset by the presence of the other without the barrier of a window.
I didn’t try to communicate with the wasps who were building a nest in the garage but simply called in an exterminator. He said this nest and another in the garage I hadn’t noticed were the largest he’d seen this season. If I did get the message through to the wasps that they had to leave, I feared they’d attack me. And, no, I didn’t want to listen to their side of the situation because leaving was non-negotiable.
FAT COMMUNICATION Failed with Robin S’s Maggie.
INTUITIVE GAMES Seldom right about the time when I woke up at night or about whether there was a new post on ATCC FB or Forum.

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 did kundalini dance (which I facilitate) type of meditation and sitting and walking meditation.
2. Did you connect with the intention to communicate with an animal this week? If so, what happened? If not, why not?
Yes everyday. I connected to a cat named Harvey and several other cats around him, like I do regularly for a woman in England that I met on an animal wisdom forum. I feel that I bring insight into her realm and also I nice kindred connection with her and her animals. I listened to the birds, nothing formal. I witnessed and gained impressions for another moose and baby, as well as, a young brown bear, just last night at my cabin. I am communicating with my own vats to see what I can learn about them and myself.
3. What would you like to celebrate about your journey in learning how to communicate with animals this week?
I am grateful I live in a forest of critters and nature sounds.
4. What challenges or questions do you have about communicating with animals this week?
Some fatigue and overwork and difficulty getting on line due to tourists.

Yes I shared on Maggie’s page and now it’s mama kitty’s turn!
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 read cards for people.
