June 1, 2008

Greetings everyone,
This year seems to be flying by and the energy is very intense. I hope that you and your animal friends are happy and healthy and going with the flow.

 I have some great news! I’ve finally met my life partner, Bob Emerson, and we will be marrying in September. I’ll also be moving to Olympia, WA this summer, but I plan to continue working with as little disruption as possible. I may cut back on my weekend hours, but will be available for phone consultations as usual. Just call the regular number to schedule. My website and email will remain the same.
My website had a major makeover recently. Check it out at www.MaryGetten.com.

I’ve added two additional animal communication workshops in 2008.  I’ll be offering a one-day format in Bellingham, WA on Aug. 23rd and the usual 2-day in Albuquerque, NM on Nov. 1 & 2. I hope to see you at a workshop or event soon.

What are you planning for your holidays next year?  Will it be awesome and life-changing? I am thrilled to invite you to join me on a new trip in 2009.  Come Swim with Wild Dolphins in the Bahamas, May 31-June 6th. It is my passion and joy to share this experience with like-minded people. We will stay in a resort and go by boat each day to communicate with and experience dolphin energy. There will be evening programs to enhance your telepathic communication skills.  Come swim with the dolphins of the Bahamas and your life will never be the same again. $1695. Limited group – reserve NOW! More details on the TRIPS page. I’ll be doing this instead of the gray whales in Baja next year. It’s time to explore new opportunities, although I do hope to get back to play with the whales soon.

In these intense times, I am consulted more and more for stress and anxiety disorders in animals. Some pets carry their own anxiety or they can take on or mirror what’s going on for their people. I’d like to pass on some tips and products that may help to alleviate or manage your pet’s anxiety.

• Do whatever you need to do to keep yourself calm and stress free.
• Don’t overload your household with animals. As the numbers rise, so does the stress.
• Talk to your animals. Try to see things from their perspective.
• Give your pets plenty of exercise and attention and alleviate boredom.

Flower essences are great for helping any type of animal resolve emotional issues. I do custom remedies for animals, or you can choose essences at www.fesflowers.com

Pheromones, specifically scents that mothers produce to calm their young, are being used now in a variety of calming products for animals. Feliway is for cats. It comes as a spray or plug-in diffuser and is especially helpful with territory issues.  DAP collars are for dogs who are anxious or fearful. Modipher EQ is a nasal spray for fear based anxiety in horses. These products can be found at better pet supply outlets and on-line.

Body wraps are great to calm dogs. You can find out how to apply one from any Tellington Touch book, or purchase a zip up jacket from www.anxietywrap.com

Sound therapy has also proved useful with all animals. Try the Harp of Hope: Animal Therapy Edition cd offered at http://harpist1.tripod.com/id32.html

Herbal products can offer some relief as well.  Happy Traveler by Ark Naturals combines several herbs to calm and relax dogs and cats. Search on-line for many others.

A nutritional supplement, Composure Liquid, is showing great results in reducing stress. I’ve heard of several cats that were able to stop spraying by taking this product. Order on-line.

Homeopathic remedies like Anxiety by Homeopet have helped many animals to calm down and feel more secure. A homeopathic vet could help with specific remedies for your pet.

EFT, a meridian tapping therapy, will help your pet move through emotional issues and find a place of balance.  www.emofree.com and www.animal-eft.org will show you how.

Just remember that there are many approaches to resolving stress and anxiety in animals, so don’t give up.  Keep searching for therapies and products to help your companion, and don’t forget about yourself too.
           
Blessings to you and your critters.
