Amping Up Intuition
Apr 2nd, 2010 by
I am always thinking of my readers, students, and clients and how to help make it easier for you to access your intuitive abilities. As you know I believe everyone has these innately and they get suppressed as we grow up. So the process really becomes finding the ways around our conditioning to regain our full intuitive potential. I realized that I have a certain technique I have not really taught yet but probably will now, and I wanted to describe it to you so you can try it. I guess if I had to name it I’d call it the, What’s that About? technique. I use it especially to look at why a certain situation is happening, or what mirroring might be happening between a person and an animal. Basically I pose the question… as in OK what is that about? or what is happening there? and then I just sit and ponder. This is where it works to ponder and wait and see what comes. Sometimes I find I will tilt my head one way and then the other… I don’t have a clue why LOL. Then something will just pop in. And then I follow the cardinal rule: go with what you get and see where it leads. So if you are stumped about something, or want to look deeper at an issue, any issue, try this and see what happens.
Your Stories
Thank you so much for writing “Learning Their Language”. I have learned how to communicate with horses using Natural Horsemanship and have studied horse psychology extensively. I used to be able to be an amazing horsewoman, though from my neck injury becoming worse I started to feel not as strong or confident. This has really affected me in not only my horse world but all aspects of my life. I am working hard at getting grounded and using the horses to build my confidence again as that is where it all began for me in life.  I am currently half way though your book and I just love it. My husband and I acquired a 11 month colt and we had to have many people assist us in getting him in the trailer. I am not great when it comes to the trailer as I am claustrophobic, though I know that I needed to get this colt use to the trailer as we have a show on the 24th of April. I got clam, relaxed, and in visioned what I needed him to do, with under five minutes he did what I imagined, it was amazing! I really feel with the help of your book and re-learning to communicate with my horses I will become the horsewoman I am missing.

Support Circles for Wild Horses and Burros
A client  brought to my attention a book by Andrew Harvey called The Hope: A Guide to Sacred Activism. I have not gotten or read the book yet, but part of the premise is that like-minded people join together in small groups to work for change. I realized that this would be a great model to use for the wild horses and mustangs. I will be putting a more detailed description in my upcoming newsletter but below is the gist of how these groups could work. I am in the process of forming a circle and I hope if you care about this issue you will too. If you do form a circle please tell me and we can stay connected to exchange ideas and info.
Your circle could meet weekly (in person or by phone/skype) to strategize (plan letters, calls, etc), update each other, brainstorm, and send energy, healing and prayers to the wild horses and burros. Each person could seek out someone they know who is willing to start a separate support circle with their friends. In this way, we can rapidly expand the number of people working on behalf of the wild horses and burros.
Great reminder for the idea. I wonder if that would that be the same, or be along the same lines, as a type of police technique I learned about while in animal control. I was taught to look at a situation and say “Is this normal for this situation?” If it is normal, then there really anything out of the ordinary. If it isn’t “normal” then look into what is wrong and follow through.
You are so right marta about Intuitiion. I agree so much I wrote a book on the subject a few years back called THE INTUITIVE JOURNEY about living your life listening to your own intuition. The trouble is our intellectual mind (so called) will chip in and say “that’s nonsense’ or something similar. How often have we all said ‘I felt at the time – then I thought how silly — ‘ only to discover that what we initially felt was the correct feeling!
The Intuitive Journey is not specifically about animals but about learning to listen to one’s inner self. You can read about it on http://www.annwalkerbooks.com
