EBD079 Stop Your Struggle for Partnership

What if it were easy to stay in the flow of love and connection with your dogs no matter what was going on around you or in your life? It would be nice, but often times it just isn’t the case! While we strive to be intentionally creating heart to heart connections with our dogs, sometimes it’s just not that simple. Things can get hectic and stressful, and pressure can climb and become uncomfortable. But what if putting an end to that feeling of struggle is easier than you think? What if the answer is extremely simple, and right under your (and your dog’s) very nose? That may very well be the case, and Kathy is here in this week’s episode of Enlightened By Dogs to share a super simple concept with you, that if you’re open minded and willing to try, could change your life and the lives of the people you love and hold dear! Sound good to you? Click play and learn more!   What acts are you doing that separate you from the things you want most in life? Why accepting things as they currently are, living in the moment, being present and aware of how you feel is a lot more important than you may think! An example using a reactive dog, and an exercise in feeling deeply connected with your dog.  You don’t need to struggle for, strive for or reach for a true heart to heart connection.  What does abundant connection feel like?   “The very thing we want, we actually create tension and resistance around” “Feel that gratitude, that delight, and deep heartfelt resonance with how great things actually are” “That feeling comes from inside of you” “The feeling is generated inside ourselves all the time” “A light intention is all you need” “They don’t need to do or be anything different than they already are” “This life is an amazing experience and I am so grateful that we get to share it together” “I’m always in love with my dog”   Want More of Kathy?

Om Podcasten

Welcome to our podcast where we dog moms discuss modern, enlightened dog parenting! Each week, we’ll take a dive deep into the human-dog connection and explore strategies that will inspire you to create connection and cooperation with your dog...no obedience training needed! We meet up at the intersection where training and behavior meet Heart and Soul...and where we leave behind the 'power over' obedience training paradigm we inherited and lead the way to an enlightened 'power with' approach. Join us for an inspirational and educational journey as we explore what living in cooperative partnership with our beautiful dogs looks like in real life. Brilliant Partners are kind, loving, calm, clear, confident, and cooperative ... and when WE learn how to be a Brilliant Partner, our dogs do too. Kathy Kawalec is an author, writer, the founder of Dancing Hearts Dog Academy and creator of the Brilliant Partners Academy, The Foundation Formula, Herding Partners Academy, and Creative Alchemy Passion Plan.
