Dogs Can Be Psychic Mediums Too

Excerpt : My dog Pepper is a medium of sorts. He sees spirits, angels, and other beings I can't see. This came in handy recently. One of my dogs, Bits, died a few days after my birthday this year. She had a


My dog Pepper is a medium of sorts. He sees spirits, angels, and other beings I can't see. This came in handy recently.

One of my dogs, Bits, died a few days after my birthday this year. She had a heart condition and began to show signs of worsening one day. The vet decided to try her on a medication and see if she would rally. Two days later, it was clear she was getting worse and her behavior indicated that the end might be near. One thing she was doing was staring at the wall, near the ceiling. Having worked with hospice for a number of years, I knew that this could indicate that "they" had come to help her cross over.

I looked over at my younger dachshund and asked him if he could see the spirits. He was unable to see Bits, or where she was looking. However, he immediately looked up to the same place where her eyes were fastened, and his eyes went back and forth watching the "show."

The strange thing for me in this was not that there were spirits in the house, or that Pepper knew exactly what I had asked, but that he could see them. Now, intellectually, I knew that animals and young children can see spirits more easily than adults, but I had never seen this talent in him before.

I took Bits to the emergency vet that night as her breathing worsened. She died in my arms there, early the next morning. I brought her body back to the house for all to say their last goodbyes. We were a very sad household that evening.

When we went to bed, Pepper began to watch another spirit "show" on the wall, above the headboard of the bed. It seemed to encompass the length of the wall, and go onto the adjacent wall as well. I knew

the spirits were with us and they were there to help us with our grief. Every night that week, they were there. And then one night, he didn't see them, and intuitively, I didn't feel them.

They have come back from time to time over the last few weeks, and I believe they come when we need them the most, when our grief is heaviest. Knowing that there are loved ones around me, even though I can't see them, helping me get through the roughest stretch of the grief journey, is quite a comfort.

You may not share my beliefs about spirits and such. However, I'm sure you'd agree with the following statement: As humans, we all face the normal and sometimes the extraordinary life challenges. This could be the death of a loved one, our own serious illness or a loved one's, a relationship breakup, a loss of job or income, an accident, an assault or other crime against us, or the devastation of a flood and loss of our home.

Now consider this. What if it were true that every time you are faced with a major life challenge:

l) That you are surrounded by your own band of angels, spirit guides and departed loved ones who become part of your 'team' to deal with this challenge, and to help you transform to the next 'level'.

2) That these spiritual helpers are 'feeding' you thoughts, ideas and perceptions that will assist you to heal and transform, especially if you have given them the 'ok.'

3) That there is incredible ENERGY that accompanies each of these life events that is available to you to PROPEL you forward into becoming more fully who you were meant to be.

4) That by consciously choosing to use your spiritual

help and this amazing energy and creative Life Force that comes with loss and challenges, YOU join the ranks of a growing collective of inspired and inspiring souls who are healing themselves and the planet.

5) That you will never suffer again in the same way as you face one of these challenges because YOU will no longer be a victim to this energy, but rather a co-creator and harnesser of this powerful team of transformers.

6) That you actually EMBRACE CHANGE and move into changes with confidence and with tools to stay focused on positive transformation; you then pass on your knowledge to friends and family to improve their lives too.

IT IS TRUE! Let me say this again. All of these things are true. Working in this field for 20 years, I have seen and heard many stories of peoples' life-changing events. As you can imagine, I see those who face this lying down with the covers pulled up over their heads, others who bravely, but with lots of tension and fear, go into this challenge quaking, and others who bulldoze their way to finding a sense of 'normalcy' again. Then there are others who open their arms and hearts to the winds of change, with a trusting attitude and gratitude for the transformation process. I started to look at the latter and take notes. What's going on in their spirit, mind, bodies and hearts that they are coming through this with such grace and beauty? I also was able to witness my personal coping strategies, having had my own share of transforming events: the death of my mother, my sister and my father, a sexual assault, a car accident and a divorce. With the latest trio (my challenges tend to come in 3's) of changes, I

decided to choose conscious transformation.

We can all transform 'unconsciously'. It's a little like sleepwalking. We just let ourselves be at the mercy of the energy and hope for the best. And though I truly believe that each person is going through their life challenges exactly the way they're supposed to, I also believe we are given messages of hope for something more meaningful, something that can align us with a life of more ease, vitality, and joy. THIS IS ONE OF THOSE MESSAGES. If you want a different, more grace-filled experience, all you must do is give it a try! Say YES to transformation. Be grateful for your spirit helpers. Speak to them, and, above all else, LISTEN for guidance and take action.

There are various ways to choose this road to positive transformation. Here are a few simple reminders:

1) As soon as the challenge arrives at your door, greet it. You don't have to be happy this visitor is there, yet you do need to acknowledge its usefulness. A statement to yourself could be something like, "It looks like the winds of change have arrived at my door as my husband just died. I feel like I won't survive this, yet I know that things happen for a reason and that what feels like destruction inside of me is the beginning of a transformation. I choose to use this transformation, even with its pain and all the emotions I will have, to become more fully who I was meant to be, to become a more loving and compassionate person with a purpose for my life. I don't know how this will happen, and I'm trusting that I will be ok and be given guidance along the way." This would be in your own words, but would show the Universe clearly

that your intention is to empower and transform yourself. This doesn't mean that you won't have days when you can't pick yourself up out of bed. You hopefully will be viewing your experience differently and know that these days will pass and that you are having a normal, human experience.

2) Self-talk is one of your most valuable allies. Notice what you are saying to yourself and others. If you are in the habit of saying things like, "I will never get over this, or "This is just too much to bear," or "What's the use of going on?" often, then you will be setting up the conditions that will make these feelings and thoughts persist. Instead, acknowledge them, and follow them with an empowered statement. For example, "Even though I feel like I can't handle this and that life doesn't even seem worth living at times, I know that I will get through this awful period. This is a temporary place and I am choosing to go on and to learn from this experience, to use it to become a better me. It's hard and yet I know that I have the support to do so." Call on your angels and spiritual helpers to assist you in this intention to balance negative, draining thoughts with those that are stronger and that feed your life force.

3) Go out into nature as often as you can. It is there that you will have the ability to connect more easily with God, with your angels and guides, and where you can move the energy in your body as you are moving the energy of change through your whole being.

4) State the obvious: "God, grand me the serenity to accept this change in my life and the gift of transformation it brings, the courage to make the choices that will nourish

this transformation and that will help me to re-build my life, and to let go of the things that are not for my highest good, and the wisdom to know the difference."

5) Take time to sit quietly. No distractions, just you, a closed door and a pad of paper and pen. Breathe in and out deeply several times. Imagine a bench on a path with all the beauty of nature around you. You sit on the bench, awaiting one of your spiritual helpers. One comes, sits next to you. What do they say or do? What do you say or ask? Take your time with this and be sure and write down your experience afterward, including details of color, smells, other sensory experiences, and of course, any conversation. Don't be afraid to ask for help. And, trust your imagination. Whatever you get from an exercise like this is REAL. It's a link to a higher state of consciousness one way or another.

6) Be gentle with yourself as you transform. It doesn't usually happen overnight. But it could! After all, anything is possible. BELIEVE.

Your experience of change is uniquely yours. It is ultimately ok whatever experience you have. Own it and allow it to give you its gifts. You deserve it!
