Can I MAKE them Listen? Not really.  But, during our chat, we will learn about the reason behind a particular behavior and a way to resolve the behavior. Telling the animal to STOP or CHANGE a behavior is not a tried and true way to communicate in mindful and meaningful ways. Listening and adapting are paths to a great relationship.  Show notes available here: https://www.mindful-connections.com/post/can-i-make-them-listen

#58 How to Live a Soulful Life

Your dog has separation anxiety. Whines, and cries every time you pick up your keys.
Your new cat is fighting with your older cat, and one of them is not using the litter box.
Your horse is shying at the mounting block when she used to stand like a statue.
Living with animals enriches our lives in so many ways, yet when they are confused or unwell, their behaviors become our concern.

The truth is, in order to make themselves known, our animals express themselves through quirky, and sometimes undesired behaviors. When their communications fail to reach us they have to resort to demonstrative behaviors.
When our animals “speak” to us we are given a choice: we can dismiss them as silly and goofy or we can choose to stop… and listen.
By knowing how to listen to your pet, you will solve problems and be shown a world that is nothing short of miraculous.
In this podcast, "Let's have a Chat," you will discover the secret to communicating with animals successfully. 
If your animal is your soul-mate, then listen in as Nicole Birkholzer, animal communication expert, author, and storyteller provides you with ideas to have a mindful and meaningful chat with your own animal to resolve quirky and undesired behaviors.
