Notes:  The Real Now

Quiet your own mind, if your thinking level is higher than the animal, you will only hear and feel yourself.

You can connect with the essence of an animal that has moved on.

Focus on the senses that are around us, what we can see, hear, feel, touch, taste.  Focus on this brings you into the present moment.

Focus on what you see. Laser focus.

Add what you can hear.

Beware of touch.  Abord yourself in the sensation of touch.

Keep your focus on spot. Laser focus.

Absorb your sense of smell.

Sense of taste, your tongue.

Leads to calm, serene, relaxed, open, and present.

Bring in your first sense, your second, then your third.

Concentrate on all three at once.  Bring in your three senses.  The Real Now.

Then put your feeling attention to the animal.  Repeat your name in your mind until you have their attention.  The animal doesn't have to be staring straight at you.

Imagination Now:

In Real Now we get present using the senses that are physically around us.  

In Imagination Now you use the senses in your imagination.

Explore going in and out of your imagination.  First, imagine the sense.  Then open your eyes and write them down.  This is going back and forth, bringing it back and forth through writing it down.

Alternation between imagination and writing it down.

Create a Special Place.  Invite Animals in to create this special place where communication occurs.

Please can you make it even more comfortable for me?  What changes?

Talk to special place.  Say, Please make it very welcoming for (name of animal).  Invite animal into special place.

Ask" What's your character like?"

A feeling will come back, in any way.

Ask: How are you feeling physically?
