Present moment Low level thinking ('right here, right now': there is nothing going on in your mind, so 'peace of mind') / feeling which is authentic ' (the less we think, the more we are connected): important to take your time during a consultation to explain this and lead the person into experiencing this
Regard Delivering the present moment to an animal: peace and un-peace can not be in the same place; when you bring in peace, the un-peace has to come out: with an animal it is the movement that has to come out. One of the biggest way to gain trust from another is to know that we have been listened to. The process (of regarding an animal) is more valuable than bringing an animal in a zero healing state. Regard is the dance of the the present moment (it is the ability to listen and actually observe what is going on and allow the animals to express themselves. animals have opinions: you will see the animal's opinion when you ask them to be peaceful. they will show you their opinion why they can't be peaceful and it's so valuable to listen to that.)

Relationship Both animal and human relate to each other in a different way: the animal relates the peaceful feeling and the healing dreams to the person they wake up next to, so the animal will relate to the human in a different way, but the whole experience of that is so touching, that the human can't help but relate to the animal in a different way (it's like teenager love): it's a shared feeling and it's a depth of the relationship. When we help people and their animals: it's the relationship that changes everything, not the mending of the problem, because after this problem will comes another problem. When the relationship is changed and there is trust: the problems will be handled easily.
The 4 Ps Peace Patience (you allow the animal to express itself (to express who they are at that time), even if the animal expresses fear-aggression) Persistence (because we're there to help them) in the light of Purpose (you're there to help them: if you have the intent to truly help an animal and you find this beautiful spiritual essence of being peaceful and patient, then that purpose will become true, because it means that in those times the animal does express themselves and you are looking at them, you will be picking up information, that ultimately will be there to help them): the gel that puts it all together

Regard= you stop any level of pressure

When you bring an animals mind down (with mindful regard), it's not the goal to make them sleepy, it is an honouring of the process they go through

a lot of the trust does not always come from the present moment; the trust comes from the regard

always invite! (we so easily go over the invite; cf. if you want a long lasting relationship, it's worth to go an have dinner together several times...)

What we're doing by constantly asking a dog to come and sit, is we're constantly bringing them back into our feeling.

Peace, patience and persistence: peace is the present moment, patience is the ability to allow that being to be exactly who they are at that time without showing any reaction (also when the animal shows aggressive behavior), persistence is to carry on the peace and the patience

There is no need to hold the animal tight (on a rope), ever: it provokes that the energy of the animal comes up. (preferably: loop-hand -that is always open and shows a beautiful energy- and hold-hand)

You don't have to be present with an animal to build trust: you have to work with regard.

When a dog barks aggressively and nobody reacts, it's just 'him on him', like somebody's arguing and you don't say anything back. But when somebody does react: it's reinforcing the dog's behavior.

You can use the PM also, not to let the dog come down, but to not-react yourself.

You can only teach your dog to be right in the right environment (dwz stel dat je hond erg reactief is naar voorbijgangers: je kan nooit in die mate oefenen met mensen die je vraagt niet-reactief te reageren; je moet je hond 'gewoon' leren om ok te zijn met mensen in de buurt.) Don't worry beforehand! Even if you react and the dog also reacts, you get present afterwards and then you show your dog you can be peaceful with it.

If you are ok with your dog's behavior, then he is (behaves) ok.

Barking = holding tensions in de jaws, so it's also .

Some animals, take a long time to go from level 2 to 0; others take a long time to go from 8 to 6, but once they're below 5, they come down really quickly.

Blinking slowly with the eyes, shows confidence (you show you don't have to be vigilant)

PM is very strong. Much easier to do to much PM, than not enough.

Mindful regard (= listening state) turns to trusted cooperation.
