 There is nothing worse then seeing your fur baby going to town, scratching away and realizing that the reason they are scratching is because they have fleas! That's when you run screaming. . . ARGH.
You know it's not a good thing because Fleas expand their numbers every three days and they are virtually invincible. Once they have found their way onto your baby, you know that they have found their way into your home, and you know that means they are getting into your carpet, your couch and just about everything else! No one likes fleas. Now think of fleas as a metaphor for that thing that is bugging you. That thing you picked up somewhere along that way that you just can't get off your mind. The constant presence of its energy has you continually playing it over and over, and no matter how many times you do this, it still keeps coming back demanding more attention. If only, I should have and why didn't I, are just some of the ways it sneaks into your house, your bed and your dreams. Fleas of this, or any kind do no one any good, so perhaps it's time to treat them so that they go away, remembering that whatever you do to deal with them, new eggs hatch within three days, so you will need to be diligent. For your babies, there are all sorts of treatments that do work and will free them from those nasty pests. For you and me, there are also options, however here is the one I highly recommend. Love, forgive and accept. Whatever the case may be, leading with love is always a good idea. Forgiveness, no matter the cause, eases your burden and acceptance, allows for solutions to come. Rid your life of fleas, and find yourself itch free! Peace, Love & Wufs, Rev Deb, Chooks & Sam

 We all would love to think that tomorrow is always going to come. But. . . as many of us know, that is not the truth of it. So why is it that we live life as if we have all the time in the world?
How many dogs do you know that let the sticks go by and not go after them? I know there are always exceptions, but for the most part, dogs always go after the stick as if their lives depend on it! Now am I saying your life depends on you chasing a stick? Literally - of course not. Metaphorically however, it applies. Think of the stick as your dreams. When we are little we all have dreams of some sort or another, but somehow life tends to steer us away from our dreams, especially if they are big ones, or ones that fall outside of the acceptable box. Too many folks want to tell us to take our head out of the clouds and give up, but if we are lucky, we don't listen. Interestingly enough not every stick calls to a dog! I've tried to give sticks to my boys and for some reason they don't want them. The wood isn't the right kind, maybe there is an order, or it's rotten. But when it's the right wood, boy or boy are they all in. Think of your dreams in the same way, the ones that call to you are the ones you are meant to have. Otherwise said, your dreams are yours because you are meant to have them. Consider this next time you reminisce about what might have been. It's never too late, if the dream still comes up for you, its because it's waiting for you to not just chase it, but actually live it. Dogs cross over the rainbow bridge with no regrets, how about we all make the same promise, so that should the time come that we cross over our own rainbow we do so after living a fully expressed life. Tomorrow is a gift, always live in the present. Chase the stick and enjoy! Peace, Love & Wufs, Rev Deb, Chooks & Sam  When I need my big boy Chooks to lay down and relax, I give him one of his favorite bones, They are made out of Bamboo and they withstand his jaws, better then most. He loves them, he is very content to chew on them and ultimately fall asleep. He seems to enjoy the focused time where he simply allows himself to fully engage in an activity that brings him joy.
When was the last time you did that. Dogs will contently chew on things for long periods of time and they are relaxed and happy. Perhaps we could all take a lesson from this and start to spend some time every day focused on something that gives us joy. When we do this we might find our thoughts relax and perhaps the answer, or solution we are looking for gets a chance to find us. When we take a moment and stop, allowing ourself a chance to catch our breath, whatever may be going one, eases. Room for misunderstanding lessens, and we discover new ideas. Maybe it's simply making a cup of calming tea and setting out, as I am right now, listening to the night sing to me on my back porch, chewing on this blog post! When we allow ourselves the time to chew on it, to consider, to think, to imagine, to play, or simply to be present, we allow ourselves everything. Just consider that when you offer a dog something to chew on, they don't refuse it, tell you they are too busy, or feel they don't deserve it. They take it and enjoy! Take your moments, give back to yourself. Listen for the inner voice inside that comes when you allow yourself time, and joy. Peace, Love & Wufs Rev Deb, Chooks & Sam  So many things to do, and seemingly so little time, all too often there are too many distractions demanding our attention and we loose sight of what matters most. We can feel off center, out of balance and out of control. Ever notice that when it comes to life in general, our dogs never seem to experience the constraints that disconnect them from enjoying life?
Certainly there are situations that demand rescue, when it comes to dogs, but even then, once they are brought into safe situations, they find their center remarkably quickly. We on the other hand seem to go in the other direction! We seem to live much of our lives attempting to find our center when really there is a simple solution. Go jump in a lake! LOL Literally, or metaphorically, connecting to nature, being at one with the elements of earth, air, fire and water, naturally bring us to our organic state of oneness with ourselves and energetically with the earth herself! Take a lesson from dog. When they are given the opportunity to jump in the lake, they do! Whether it's wading, laying on the damp shore or romping in the deep end, they align with the elements because it feels that good. When dogs are drawing near to crossing over the rainbow bridge they prefer to lay on the earth versus be inside, because they find deep comfort when being at one with Mother Gaia. Here is the prescription for all of us. Kick off your shoes and stand barefoot on the grass, take some deep breaths and let go. Additional options include sitting with your back against a tree, which may include a lovely magical walk in the woods. And of course there is always the option if at all possible to go jump in a lake and ENJOY! Peace, Love & Wufs, Rev Deb, Chooks & Sam |
