Learn How to Talk to Animals - A Practical Guide for a Magical Journey (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781468034592)

Leta Worthington has spent the last 20 years training, practicing, and teaching in the fields of animal communication, herbology, and other related areas. She has studied extensively with Penelope Smith and Jeri Ryan in animal communication, and with well-known herbalist and author Matthew Wood. Leta completed instructor training in animal communication with Penelope Smith and is listed in Penelope's International List of Telepathic Interspecies Communicators. Leta has also studied basic homeopathy with veterinarians Drs. Madalyn Ward and Christina Chambreau, and teaches a veterinarian-approved, homeopathic first-aid-for-animals workshop. Horses being one of Leta's passions, she also trained with Linda Tellington-Jones in her innovative approach to working with and understanding horses, TT.E.A.M., and attained the first practitioner level in this method. Leta's practice has included communicating with all manner of animals, plants, and nature spirits. She has regularly collaborated with veterinarians to assist in identifying challenging physical issues and to help resolve the psychological and emotional roadblocks that frequently hinder the healing process. She has worked extensively with flower essences and has successfully formulated a unique set of over 40 of them from Texas Hill Country wildflowers. Leta is also a painter and focuses on animals as her subjects, portraying each animal's unique personality and spirit through her work. She has made two lengthy trips to Africa and has dedicated proceeds from prints of one of her elephant paintings to help further research for the African Elephant, Loxodonta Africana, spearheaded by the non-profit organization Elephants for Africa. After a move from Texas to New Mexico in 2008, Leta now lives and works at Sol y Cielo (Sun & Sky), her 40-acre compound in the Ortiz Mountains just south of Santa Fe, with her large, multi-species family. She is also proud to serve on the Board of Directors of the Santa Fe Animal Shelter & Humane Society in her new home state.
