I. Each individual is born with one underlying energy field (vital force).
This means each dog or cat is sensitive to different triggers. For instance, of 20 dogs in a play group exposed to kennel cough, only some will get symptoms. As another example, some cats thrive on chicken while others vomit after eating only a small amount.
II. Symptoms are caused by an imbalanced vital force.
Most symptoms, even serious ones, are not caused by the trigger (e.g. bee sting, virus, over-exertion). Usually, the trigger to which your animal is sensitive disturbs his energy template, which then tries to restore balance by producing symptoms. The goal of conventional healthcare approaches is to eliminate current symptoms rather than get to the root of the issue.
III. The totality of symptoms represents the energy template.
These include all current and past symptoms, especially odd ones that clearly indicate each animals uniqueness. The EWS (Early Warning Signs) of internal imbalance gives you more symptoms. For example, older dogs are often stiff and arthritic when the weather is cold and damp. If the dog is worse when the weather is hot and dry, this would point more clearly to a particular treatment.
IV. Treat the individual, not the disease (trigger).
This is a very different approach than that taken by conventional medicine. Focusing on rebalancing the quantum pattern of the individual, and restoring natural vitality rather than merely eliminating symptoms, builds long-term health and resiliency. Avoiding the triggers is often only temporarily helpful. Not feeding a specific protein may resolve allergy symptoms, but if the vital force is not re-balanced, the animal will develop allergies to the new protein.
V. Know the few ways every individual can respond to any treatment or lifestyle change.
a. Cure happens when the animal feels better overall, with good BEAM for that individual (Behavior, Energy, Appetite, and Mood). The current symptoms slowly resolve and stay away. The EWS also began to disappear.
b. Palliation provides temporary help with no improvement in BEAM.
c. Suppression resolves current symptoms but BEAM is worse and the animal becomes
increasingly ill later.
STEPS TO RESTORING BALANCE
Begin with some lifestyle improvements:
- Feed the best possible diet, including a wide variety of fresh food, at least part of the time.
- Provide 24/7 access to clean, pure water.
- Avoid toxins, including flea and tick chemicals, excess vaccines, household cleaners, pesticides, etc.
- Stimulate his body and mind even cats and older dogs can learn tricks.
- Learn energy modalities such as Reiki, Healing Touch for Animals, etc., and offer them daily.
If you have noticed some symptoms of concern, yet your dog or cat still has good BEAM, try adding in the following gentle approaches, one or two at a time. Its always a good idea to consult with a holistic or integrative vet before starting any new therapies:
Flower essences- Acupressure
- Massage
- Essential oils (use only high quality therapeutic-grade oils)
- Herbs (use under the guidance of a holistic or integrative vet)
If his BEAM is not great, and you are concerned about his symptoms, take him for a veterinary exam.
If you focus on re-balancing your dog or cats energy field, his symptoms may naturally resolve. Dont just stop the symptoms; build vitality instead. Many animals will heal on their own with gentle support. When your intuition nudges you and/or your companions BEAM is worsening, make an appointment with your holistic or integrative veterinarian.
