Read MoreDo you remember the first animal friend you ever had? What was special about that relationship? Did you believe that this animal understood you better than anyone else? Did you sense what the animal was feeling? Thinking? Wanting? Did you realize that you were engaging in animal communication? When I was a small child, I had a cat named Tiger. He was a dark orange striped feline with a powerful purr. He understood everything I told him and seemed to have a wisdom way beyond the adults that I knew. I never questioned our conversations.

Just do what I want you to do, period. Problem solved. Huh. via GIPHY That would be nice, eh? Wish I had a magic wand […]

Read MoreToday on The Real Dr. Doolittle Show™ I’m talking to Robin McKay BScN., M.A.M. Energy Facilitator & Teacher. Robin is a fellow animal lover and Jin Shin Jyutsu® practitioner who works with people and animals. She is a retired Registered Nurse, whose career spanned from direct nursing care in Critical Care, then management in critical care, emergency medicine, and long term care, ending with teaching at a nursing school.

The more she practiced on herself and others, the more she realized that this balance is what allows us to be able to handle or deal with what our modern life throws at us. As […]
