Absolutely fantastic and Life-Changing! Thank you James and Shelley for creating this magnificent program, where we get to listen and communicate at a very different “frequency” with animals. We go in it to help our beloved animal friends, and can quickly realize that many times it is US that need the healing first. The name should perhaps be The Trust Technique Healing Video Course! 🙂 The guidance in this program has made me realize SO much about myself, and how I react to situations, which is being mirrored in my dogs. Truly life-changing at so many levels! since the principles are applied not only with animals but with life experiences in general. The course itself is very well put together and organized, and so many various examples! I don’t feel words are enough to describe the impact the trust technique has had in my life and healing journey. Deeply grateful to have found The Trust Technique.

I have loved the trust technique video course. Practicing the trust technique for people has helped me to release some old panic and frustration. Being with my puppy in the present moment and mindful regard has also helped me build a lovely connection with her and support her as she grows and finds her way in the world. Seeing James and Shelley and the folks working with the dogs, cats, horses, lions and bears has been so moving and healing and reconnected me to a deep soft and authentic part of myself. I would like to continue my learning and practice as this has been a life changing experience.

My overall opinion is there is a wide range of experiences demonstrated, with good narrative to follow the concepts step by step through the 3 principles. This has provided a good demonstration of the technique to practice with confidence. If you can couple that with other techniques or theoretical understanding, eg. Meditation, mindfulness, hypnosis, psychotherapy, Reiki, natural horsemanship, Trust technique brings a greater depth to your interactions with horses and sets a beautiful pathway for sentient relationships. I was brought to tears by many stories shown in these videos and reminded of many similar stories from horses in my lifetime. Although I have been fortunate to have worked predominantly in this way with horses, I can think of many rushed moments with horses that have ended in frustration and regret. To quote a great horseman ‘ give a task an hour and it will take 10 minutes, give a task 10 mins and it will take an hour’ The joy of working with your own horses first in this practice is you soon find you can enter a peaceful state within a couple of breaths. The healing power of breath is amazing. Peace and Release. Namaste.

This course has helped not only my animals but ME to be more present every day.
My horses come to the fence wanting to receive the Trust Technique.
My cats (who are rescued feral cats) don’t let any other human in their lives but just recently my daughter was visiting from interstate and all three cats came to the lounge room at different times and stayed resting in the same room as my daughter. In the past they’d see someone else in the house and go into hiding until the person had left.
My dog is also more relaxed when we go out on our boat. She was previously unsettled by the movement but she is improving each time we go out.
The lowered energy is quite the opposite of what I’d been shown by traditional dog trainers with regard to energy.
The course isn’t too technical in any way so anyone can do it. I can’t wait to do the practitioner course because I think even my 8 year old granddaughter will love practising this with her dog ?

I have found this course immensely valuable, not only in helping me to better understand my own little dog but also in giving me a deeper understanding of all the animal beings we share this world with. Extremely heartwarming, thank you so much for doing this amazing work that you do.

I started the trust technique in 2020. It has taken a bit for me to work it through. It was a journey of a deeper understanding of myself and my animals and I didn’t want to rush any of it. I had just completed my certification in dog training, and I was looking for a way to help anxious and aggressive dogs. Well, I got more than I bargained for in this program. I found a way to help my own anxiety & my dog’s anxiety. With the benefit of a new option to help my clients, pet owners who were struggling to understand and work with their animals. This technique has been a complete catalyst of change in my own life. I hope I can eventually apply it to my business, so it can be the same stepping stone for my clients. I will be moving on to the practitioners
course.
Thank you James, your development and teaching of this technique, has been so very valuable.
