Transforming Trauma
Author: Philip Tedeschi
Publisher: Purdue University Press
ISBN: 1612495206
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 511
Book Description
Have you ever looked deep into the eyes of an animal and felt entirely known? Often, the connections we share with non-human animals represent our safest and most reliable relationships, offering unique and profound opportunities for healing in periods of hardship. This book focuses on research developments, models, and practical applications of human-animal connection and animal-assisted intervention for diverse populations who have experienced trauma. Physiological and psychological trauma are explored across three broad and interconnected domains: 1) child maltreatment and family violence; 2) acute and post-traumatic stress, including military service, war, and developmental trauma; and 3) times of crisis, such as the ever-increasing occurrence of natural disasters, community violence, terrorism, and anticipated or actual grief and loss. Contributing authors, who include international experts in the fields of trauma and human-animal connection, examine how our relationships with animals can help build resiliency and foster healing to transform trauma. A myriad of animal species and roles, including companion, therapy, and service animals are discussed. Authors also consider how animals are included in a variety of formal and informal models of trauma recovery across the human lifespan, with special attention paid to canine- and equine-assisted interventions and psychotherapy. In addition, authors emphasize the potential impacts to animals who provide trauma-informed services, and discuss how we can respect their participation and implement best practices and ethical standards to ensure their well-being. The reader is offered a comprehensive understanding of the history of research in this field, as well as the latest advancements and areas in need of further or refined investigation. Likewise, authors explore, in depth, emerging practices and methodologies for helping people and communities thrive in the face of traumatic events and their long-term impacts. As animals are important in cultures all over the world, cross-cultural and often overlooked animal-assisted and animal welfare applications are also highlighted throughout the text.

Animal Healing and Vibrational Medicine
Author: Sage Holloway
Publisher: Star Chalice Sisters Publishing
ISBN: 9780982103326
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
Animal Healing and Vibrational Medicine by Sage Holloway Dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, rodents, fish, horses, dolphins and farm animals benefit from the gentle healing methods of vibrational medicine. Animal Healing and Vibrational Medicine explains how to create remedies specifically for individual ailments ... with no harmful side effects! Essences, or vibrational remedies, are elixirs of water infused with the energy frequency of flowers, gems, minerals, elements, stars, or sacred earth spaces. These high-energy frequencies invite the individual's energetic field to resonate at the higher vibration, balancing and healing the energy system through the body. Animal Healing is a resource and reference guide for over 1,000 energetic remedies. It provides a variety of ways to administer them to animals, and it takes the guesswork out of how they work. You will find remedies for: Addition or loss of a family member (animal or human) Fear of not enough attention to go around, Moving anxiety, Stress from specialized and obedience training, Living predominantly indoors, Immune system dysfunctions cause by processed pet food, Medical and surgical procedure recovery, Injuries and infestations, Exposure to environmental and household toxins, And many more. "Quietly, gently, radically, Sage Holloway challenges the veterinary industry to open its mind and its heart to a whole new range and vocabulary of care-giving. Every human being who resides with, or has feelings for, a member of some other species would do well to become familiar with these 'alternative' insights into health. As an interspecies guide, it is absorbing. Whether one agrees with all of its assertions matters not, for the underlying love of all plants and animals that emerges from the book can only help to stop the cruelty that Homo sapiens have collectively, insanely inflicted on mother earth and all her precious progeny for thousands of years." Dr. Michael Tobias, author of World War III: Population and the Biosphere at the End of the Millennium and A Vision of Nature: Traces of the Original World "This book deserves to be read and its contents explored and tested by open-minded individuals interested in the process of healing." Bernie Siegel, M.D., author of Love, Medicine and Miracles and Prescriptions for Living "An illuminating guide of holistic wisdom that is essential to survival as a species and a wake up call that speaks to the amnesia of mainstream consciousness. As humankind awakens to its own need for natural rhythm and seeks to heal the separation of body and soul ... this sensitive book will serve as the map ... a way for us to see the road back to being keepers of the Earth and all her living creatures. Animal Healing And Vibrational Medicine is a resonate voice of the Ancient Future ... it is time to celebrate" Springs Romano, Ph.D., author of Powers That Be "For years I have utilized vibrational remedies with animals - wild and domestic. They are one of the most effective healing methods for work with wildlife. Sage Holloway's Animal Healing and Vibrational Medicine provides very practical and easy-to-follow guidelines for using vibrational remedies with the animal kingdom. Whether a professional healer, a pet owner or even a wildlife rehabilitator - you will benefit from this text. More importantly, the animals in your life will as well." Ted Andrews, author of Animal-Speak and Animal-Wise.

Soul Friends: Finding Healing with Animals
Author: Kate Nicoll
Publisher: Dog Ear Publishing
ISBN: 0976660369
Category : Dog adoption
Languages : en
Pages : 145
Book Description
This book follows the psychological process leading to the adoption of an animal companion and alerts adopters to potential unconscious needs, patterns of behavior and elements of rescuing that hugely impacts dog adoptions in today's world. This insightful exploration encourages readers to complete self-examination prior to adoption that is more meaningful than current applications and potentially avoids fallout from unsuccessful adoptions. Psychological elements that impact the meeting of the "perfect dog" are often misunderstood and seemingly disregarded by potential adopters. Nicoll explores her personal history, her first experience with pet loss and rescue fantasies as potent narratives that may lead to irresponsible relationships with our animal companions. Current trends toward positive reinforcement in dog training explore psychological theories of cognitive and behavioral approaches in everyday interactions with animals. Nicoll encourages readers to delve deep into the psychological underpinnings of the human-animal bond to enhance the relationship and find meaning in our life with dogs. The work of companionship is highlighted as a potential opportunity for deep self-reflection and healing while playing, learning and living life with our animal friends. Guidelines for seeking healing with our soul friends will potentially decrease unsuccessful adoptions and promote a sense of reverence for the healing lick.
