Animals teach us how to be present with positive energy

- the following week it's the complete opposite? I will share with you 10 tips to effortlessly create a positive day every day with the guidance and cues from your family members who are either 4 legged, furry, feathery, or has scales! All types of animals can teach us so much about balancing our day to day thoughts, activities and attitudes to ensure a positive flow of energy in all that you do. We just have to be more ware of our animals' presence as well as how we use our emotions so as not to create negative energy.

Studies show animals are good for one's health! Animals can help reduce anxiety and lonliness for all age groups, from children to beyond!

So let's get started...

being sad or angry keeps you on a low vibrational energy level

1. Breath Deep - Before getting out of bed with your eyes still closed, take several deep breaths and all the body to just be. This is NOT THE TIME to think about the day, but just present with your breathing. Deep breathing is a wonderful exercise anytime of the day to help with focus and calming affect.

2. Gratitude - As you open your eyes whether your animal is on the bed, in the room or even outside, give thanks that they are a part of our beautiful life. Being in Gratitude for all things especially your beloved pet heightens your energies allowing you to feel good! (oh and doing this throughout the day keeps good things rolling your way :)

Be in gratitude for your animals being in your life

3. Your Attention Please! - As you are moving about making your way out of the bedroom towards the morning routine of either walking (or letting them out to do their business) and feeding them be aware of them! Talk with them hold them for a minute and tell them how much you love them. Of course with other people in the household make the interaction a calm and light hearted. There's a reason we've been saying "Good Morning...." for how long?! When you are present like this appertaining the moment, nothing else matter, until you either get interrupted, or it's time to move on. But when you "get interrupted", don't get frustrated or bitter. Instead, just accpet it and stay focused on what is being presented to you! This is a biggy for you will have so many opportunities to play with this concept. You can watch yourself and 'catch yourself', as you look over to your animal for a reminder!

I love this quote and it's a perfect reminder....

4. Exercise - Whether you have to take your animal out for a walk, or you have 5 kitties at your feet wanting your attention, there are always ways to exercise with them. Whether it's walking a lit bit brisker to give you both a higher intensity to your exercise to throwing a ball/stick for them if exercising is limited. For indoors, feather sticks are great for cats. If's it their time to go out that's where your attention is! With them! You will see a huge difference in not only how you feel from moving around more, but feel a deeper connection with them as one. Same goes if it's time to take a nap. No worries, if your calm and relaxed they will find you and snuggle up to you!

5. Chow Time - As you prepare their food, especially as they are telling you they are hunger, do so with feel love and compassion towards them and how healthy they are. Now if they are presently under doctor's care, your ability to shift any negative thoughts about the situation to love and compassion that is the best medicine! Which brings me to number 6.

6. Meditation - Taking 5 -10 minutes a day to sit quietly with no thoughts of the day, no worries, and or thinking about what has to be done etc, will not only improve your overall health, it will help your animal relax and recover from any illness, trauma and or reduce stress! The easiest way to start is to take several deep breaths in and slowly out. As you do so just focus on your body starting at the top of your head and down to your feet. Feel free to email me and I will send you a Hara-Breathing (Japanese Reiki Techinque) Meditation Audio to help guide you and your animal.

7. At the Office - Many animal lovers have to leave and go to work outside of the home. Whether you are in your car or in an office setting taking a couple of minutes of quite time is not only great for your productivity, but this is a great time to connect heart to heart with your animal (s). Just tell them how much you love them either through an image, color or words! It's that easy. You can also image to them when you will be coming home, using the image of their dinner bowl. This is also great to do just before you are leaving the house, letting them know you will be home later. If you are planning on a trip that does not include them please take the time to do this. An easy way is just image to them after 5 dinner times you will be home. Use any type of imagery that works for you and they will get it. Remember, all animals are sensitive and can feel what you are feeling positive or negative.

8. Be Present in the Choas - Just when you find your self loosing it, getting angry (whether it has to do with them or something or someone besides them), practice catching yourself and just be the observer. Breath and just let it be. That is giving attention to the moment and bringing yourself back to the now. Allow your animal to remind of being present, for that is the only state of consciousness they know!

9. Volunteer at a local shelter - The rewards of helping at your local shelter is boundless! Offering your time and loving energy without any expectations is the greatest gift to gift!

10. Be Kind to Yourself - It is a proven fact that when we treat ourselves with love, compassion and kindness, it automatically comes back to us in so many different ways. The people around you will see it even if they are not able to talk about it, they will respond in kindess back to you. Treat others as you would like to be treated goes a long way.
