Welcome!

 

Kathy and crew I am pleased to have you visit my website and hope that you will be intrigued and motivated to discover how to live a joyful life filled with passion, empowerment, creativity and peace.

My work is built around connecting the hearts of people and their animals because I believe our animals are with each of us to lead us down our unique path to fulfilling our life purpose and living a heart~connected life. They make us laugh, give us hope, compel us to take action on their behalf and are wonderful teachers and healers.

Helping you and your animal companions live a balanced, harmonious life through heart-connected teaching and the healing arts is my passion and delight! Enjoy exploring the information here, have fun and visit often!

Blessings of love and peace to you and your animal friends,

Kathy

fall trees.jpgHappy Fall everyone!

What an amazing and magical time of year! There is such a flurry of activity in all aspects of our lives as we prepare to change with the seasons. It’s a time to change or be changed, a time where our efforts of sowing and nurturing have come to a head that we can now harvest and store for the long winter of renewal. It’s a season of releasing, of letting go of the familiar in order to make room in our lives for change. The dark winter season allows us time to rest and to get in touch with our inner wisdom…to tap into the teachings of the universe so we are fully prepared to emerge with full vitality and inspiration in the spring!

Natural Animal Rearing
Written by Kathy Kawalec
Tuesday, 11 December 2007
Happy, healthy animals with shiny coats, bright eyes and a bounce in their step. That's the image we love to have of our dogs, cats, horses and other companion animals. Natural Rearing is a term coined by a pioneer in natural feeding and husbandry practices, Juliette de Bairacli Levy. Her books have been key references for feeding raw foods and using herbs for many years. The philosophy is simple: feed as close to a natural diet as possible, allow animals to have plenty of access to fresh air, sunshine, clean pure water and exercise...consider their "whole-ness" in all husbandry choices. This is the ideal for promoting overall good health and a strong immune system.
