Since I saw the first video about the trust technique I was fascinated by this way of life between humans and animals. I watched all the videos with curiosity and stunning and my heart is deeply touched. I got a lot of wonderful connections and adventures with wild animals in my garden and with my own animals which are donkeys, ducks, a rabbit and a cat. Since 2 years I am working as an animal-assisted therapist and I would like to rise up my knowledge by learning the exercises in the practitioner course! I like the way of teaching like James does.

It has taken 2 years to go through the TT course, because I watched most of the videos twice, to take it all in. Some testimonials left me spellbound and got me very emotional. I love the technique because it’s simple but extremely powerful. I truly recommend this course if you want to help animals, and/or just deepen the interspecies connection.

Words can not describe what this course had done for my dog and my horse. My Aussie has noise phobia and is terrified of fireworks. But have using the technique on him for a short period of time, this July 4th he lies calmly under my desk as the booms sounded around us. Some of the larger ones did trigger him, but I have never seen him so calm without medication.
It has always been my dream to connect and bond with a horse on a deep spiritual level. But my mare and I just didn’t seem to have that connection until the Trust Technique. She follows me with the invisible lead and I am feeling so much more connected to her. Even the stable hands where I board her tell me she is so much more calm and laid back. This Technique is priceless.

IT’S MAGIC

I enjoyed the video course very much and I think, your findings of the “present moment” and “mindful regard” are pioneer work of a similar importance as the work of Konrad Lorenz’ (1903 – 1989) the ethologist and ornithologist, who discovered imprinting. While K. Lorenz’s findings reflect the instinctual level of animal life, your findings explore a psychological level. (I am not including the spiritual level). I hope your work will be acknowledged in science. “Present Moment” and “Mindful Regard” reflect the basic concepts of all psychotherapies (from behaviourism to psychoanalysis). The sections of the video course, which are designed for humans are based on a behaviouristic approach. The fact that animals are able to heal themselves from traumatic experiences by reaching a zero-state of deep relaxation, which relates to their early infancy, is astonishing and well demonstrated and explained. Thanks for your perseverance, patience and precision.

I have enjoyed this video course immensely. It is so impressive to see, that something so seemingly simple as the present moment can have such a profound effect on our animals, helping them overcome difficult moments in their lives… and help their caretakers at the same time, too. It also goes to show, what I’ve always felt when I observe people interacting with animals: If there are problems, it’s mostly the humans that need to learn and not so much the animals… The Trust Technique is a wonderful tool for this and I would love to see people treating their animals with this kind of regard and care always and everywhere. So I want to be part of this and spread the message. I am keen to keep learning in the practitioner’s and the animal communication course.
Thank you, Shelley and James, for making this wonderful method accessible to everyone!
