I encountered a new experience that I would like to share with you. Several months ago, a client came to my office grieving the loss of her beloved pet. By her own admission, she is “a dog person.” For all of her adult life, she has had dogs as part of her family. Her most recent dog died at the age of 16, quite old for a large dog. She wanted some assistance and support to overcome her loss as she acknowledged that ever since her beloved dog’s death, she had never felt the same. As we went through the DEH process, we identified that she was in-fact carrying some traumatic residue that she had not yet been able to shake.
One of the issues I quickly was able to identify was that she was only about 20% embodied. Dissociation from trauma is not at all unusual. As we went through the steps to restore full embodiment, it was determined that there was some supernatural interference associated with her loss trauma. Eventually, frontal occipital holding was called for. What I saw greatly surprised me for it was the spirit of her beloved dog that was attached to her energy field.She had earlier on in the session admitted to me that she felt that she just didn’t want to let this family member go because it was the last of a long line of dogs that she had cherished as a companion that helped her to feel complete. As I spent more time in the shamanic state of consciousness, I saw that there was a pack of dogs in the distance beckoning the spirit of her dog to join them. I was so touched because I had never before seen a dog or any animal attached to somebody’s energy field– it had always been a lost or disoriented human being.Because my client so loved her dog and her dog was so loyal to her, my client ended up in a situation that ultimately was not for the good for either her or her beloved dog’s spirit. Eventually, with the encouragement of one of my power animals and good communication being generated between the attached dog’s spirit and its spiritual family of the pack waiting in the background, the loyal pet disengaged and joined its companions as they ascended to the place they needed to go to. When I shared this with my client, she was not at all surprised.She was both saddened and heartened to know that her loyal companion was willing to sacrifice its own personal evolution to stay with her. After the spirit releasement had been completed, my client was once again 100% in her physical body and all of the residual trauma from her loss spontaneously resolved.
