Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.

Animal Communication Workshops and Talks

Jacqueline's workshop was a delightfully informal, nurturing and gentle introduction to an astonishing process. Once she helped me past "That can't be done" and "I can't do this!" I found myself communicating with animals and experiencing an astonishing breakthrough in my view of the world.

Workshops 

Beginning Animal Communication

Telepathic communication with animals is your birthright. It’s joyful. It’s heart-warming. It’s simple. In this workshop, your innate abilities will awaken through discussion, exercises, and practice, practice, practice. During the course of the day, we speak with a variety of animals, including your own. 

Skills development
The workshop is designed to ease you into the subtle realms. At the onset, you will learn how to quiet your mind using guided meditations. Next, you will learn how to send and receive information. Various exercises illustrate how you are most comfortable exchanging information, whether through thought forms, images, emotions, or sensations. In the process, you learn how to speak with animals both in the room and at a distance. Finally, you will practice what you have learned with other participants’ animal companions. 

Prerequisites: None 

Intermediate Animal Communication I

Delve deeper and range further than the Beginning Animal Communication workshop. Skills-building continues as an important focus. Participants practice new skills through exploring a compelling range of topics with companion animals, from sensing through an animal's sensory system to asking about past lives.

Skills development
We will pick up where the beginning workshop left off. After a brief refresher, you will learn techniques for increasing the depth and accuracy of information you receive. These techniques include

  • verifying and increasing the accuracy of what you receive
  • formulating questions to engage animals’ attention and elicit a response
  • developing the modalities that aren’t as strong - words, images, emotions, sensations 

We will also learn how to work with additional topics. You will learn approaches for the following as time permits:

  • conducting body scans
  • talking with animals about previous incarnations
  • communicating with animals who have passed 

The interests of the workshop participants influence which activities we emphasize, whether day-to-day concerns or life purpose and the Divine. 

Prerequisite: Beginning Animal Communication 

Intermediate Animal Communication II

Fine-tune your animal communication skills. At this workshop, you will learn techniques for engaging in more complex conversations with animals and for negotiating change. Participants practice new skills through exploring such topics as problem behaviors and adjustment issues. 

Prerequisite: Beginning Animal Communication. This workshop can be taken back-to-back with the beginning workshop. 

Beginning and Intermediate Animal Communication

Enjoy this immersive two-day workshop where three certified professional animal communicators will guide you through the process of communicating telepathically with dogs, cats, horses, goats and more!

On the first day of the workshop, participants will learn how to send and receive telepathic information. On the second day, participants go into more depth, learning techniques for opening medical intuition, doing more complex problem solving, and experiencing what it's like to see through an animal's eyes.

We are really excited to be bringing you this animal communication extravaganza. We – Jacqueline, Monike, and Pattie – love to team up and frequently refer clients to one another.

Pattie Carney, RN, Certified Professional Animal Communicator, Certified Intuitive Healer, and Reiki II Practitioner

My working career began as a registered nurse, initially helping people to heal on the physical level, and later deepening to include healing on the emotional and spiritual levels. Over the past several years, my work has expanded to include the animals in our lives.

It is my dearest hope that, through my animal communication sessions and workshops, you will open to the healing nature of the animal companions who are journeying with you.

Monike van Duren, MSSc, Certified Professional Animal Communicator, Reiki Practitioner, ThetaHealing™ Practitioner, Healing Touch for Animals® Practitioner

Monike van Duren is Holland’s first Certified Professional Animal Communicator and is already becoming known as one of Europe’s premier animal communicators. She earned certification in 2005 through Carol Gurney’s HeartTalk Program™ after a full year of case studies, tutoring, and community service. Carol Gurney is one of the world's leading teachers and pioneers of animal communication.

Monike´s first healing success was in 2003 when she guided a friend and her cat through a difficult period after this friend moved and started living together. The cat was traumatised and afraid that she had to leave. By making a new heart to heart connection Monike created a new understanding between cat and friend. The cat stopped meowing at night, scratching and fighting. This inspired Monike to move onto this new path.

She never regretted this step. Her 15 years experience as an academic researcher helps her to ask the right questions and to find different ways into the very essence of the animal. Her strong intuition and energetic sensitivity in combination with her quiet radiance makes her a gifted animal communicator. She guides people into a better understanding of their animal, whether it is a horse, dog, cat or any other animal.

Monike is looking forward to this unique adventure on Whidbey Island. Eager to share with you all the wonders of animal communication. It’s a life changing experience!

Basic ThetaHealing

Join me, Jacqueline Sowell, M.A., R.C., Theta Healing Teacher and Practitioner, for a hands-on course in ThetaHealing, a healing practice that will empower you to change your life. During the seminar, you will learn how to enter the theta brainwave, the brainwave of instant healing, telepathy, and more. You will then learn how to use this state in releasing physical, emotional, and spiritual ways of being that no longer serve you.

Upon completing the seminar, you will know how to

  • intuitively scan the physical body
  • do instant physical healings
  • identify and release the emotional and spiritual causes of illness
  • change beliefs on four different levels: Core, Genetic, History and Soul
  • see and communicate with guardian angels and guides
  • do future readings
  • activate the Youth and Vitality DNA

As Anais Nin observed, “We see the world not as it is but as we are.” Bring clarity to who you are so that you too can live in a magical world of abundance, love, and well being.

Individual consultations with me are available in the days preceding the seminar and by phone year round. For more information about how I employ ThetaHealing with people and animals, please see About Jacqueline.

Talks 

What Is Animal Communication? (two-hour presentation)

Experience animal communication first-hand! I will answer common questions about animal communication, tell stories, and guide attendees through a beginning exercise in telepathic communication. 

We typically discuss how professional animal communicators can help modify problem behaviors, explore health issues and end-of-life choices as well as enhance your relationship with your animal companion. 

Attendees determine the topics. You can ask whatever is on your mind, such as the following:

  • What’s an animal communication consultation like?
  • What’s the difference between a pet psychic, animal intuitive, animal communicator, and interspecies communicator?
  • Do I have to hold the phone to my cat’s head?
  • What topics can my animal companion discuss?
  • How do I know it’s for real?
  • How can you talk with my animal companions if you never meet them? 

What Is Animal Communication? (30 minute presentation)

Learn how animal communication can help you enhance relationships with your animal companions, modify problem behavior, learn about health issues, and much, much more.
