As an interspecies guide, it is absorbing. Whether one agrees with all of its assertions matters not, for the underlying love of all plants and animals that emerges from the book can only help to stop the cruelty that Homo sapiens have collectively, insanely inflicted on mother earth and all her precious progeny for thousands of years."

Animal Healing And Vibrational Medicine is a resonate voice of the Ancient Future ... it is time to celebrate" Springs Romano, Ph.D., author of Powers That Be "For years I have utilized vibrational remedies with animals - wild and domestic. They are one of the most effective healing methods for work with wildlife.
