Mystic Dog Mama

In this week’s episode, I chat with Beth Bigler of Honoring Our Animals. Beth is a pet loss grief counsellor who is offering a really important and valuable space for us to explore the various kinds of grief we will inevitably experience in our lives, especially when we invite our four-legged beloveds into our lives.

Beth and I have one of the most important conversations I think I’ve had around the topic of grief, of our culture’s complete avoidance of the grieving and mourning experiences, and how we can transform with and through the proces...

What if I told you that nourishing your dog (and yourself!) is NOT just about food?

Yep, that’s right, you heard it straight from the holistic canine nutrition and wellness consultant’s mouth!

Food is one component, but there's more...

What if I told you that what is ACTUALLY needed to help support your dog’s health is a N.E.W. Approach, one that takes a whole dog perspective and includes:

🥩🥦Nutrition

When you bring these 3 components together, you have a recipe for health an...

In our last Summer Season Special, I share with you how holistic kinesiology (muscle testing) has helped me with Lucky's health journey, and how it has helped several of my canine nutrition clients!

I share with you how a random visit to a homeopath provided me with the missing key to Lucky's health issues, and catapulted us onto a path of thriving! It's why I learned these energy healing modalities and now use them in my canine nutrition and wellness services.

You'll learn a couple of techniques and how to use them with your own...

Happy Dog Days of Summer!

How do we help ourselves and our dogs move through triggering situations more quickly, and become more empowered in the process?

This is a short episode I made after reflecting on a conversation I had with Sharon Vincuilla of Holistic Dog Expert, who I will be interviewing for an upcoming podcast episode! Sharon and I were talking about the idea of co-regulating with our dogs (which we will do a deep dive into, so if you want me to ask her specific questions, let...

In this episode of the Summer Series, I'm doing a refresher on your dog's energetics, after a lovely listener reached out after trying to figure out her own dogs' energetics.

I give some tips and tricks on how to identify your dog's primary element of their constitution, as well as whether or not they run more towards cool or warm, and how you can then balance this with food. I also share ways to check your dog's behavioural quirks, and how the time of day they do them might point us to areas of imbalance.

Welcome to another Solo Summer Series episode! This week's topic: Nutrition!

Many of you have been reaching out with questions on how to best feed your dog a fresh food diet, and you asked what my take on the new Forever Dog Life Book is. So, in this episode I give a rundown of my thoughts on this new recipe book for fresh feeders, and share my "food pyramid" for dogs and how I put together Lucky's diet and nutrition plans for clients.

I will be doing a series of episodes on nutrition, so if...

It's 8/8 today! And you know what that means, Lion's Gate! The time when the Dog Star meets the Sun in Leo. This is an amazing time for reflecting on and creating all the wonderful things life has to offer.

And as the Dog meets the Lion, it's also an invitation for deep self-inquiry to explore how we can learn from our dogs and live a much more heart-led, self-compassionate life.

I share with you 5 questions and practices I will be using for myself today to take advantage of this auspicious time in order to create...

Hello hello! This is the first of the Dog Days of Summer Series where I cover topics you're curious about, and answer your questions on how to best nourish your dog - and yourself - mind, body, and soul.

Today's episode is all about animal communication, and I share a few simple ways you can deepen your intuition and develop your skills so you can communicate with your own dog!

If there's a topic you'd like me to cover in this summer series, just send me a DM on Instagram @mysticdogmama and let me know!<...

I’m really excited to share this week’s conversation that I had with Annika McDade of Canine Connection Coaching and Training. Annika is such a beautiful soul, and her approach to working with dogs, and their humans, is so resonant, so in alignment with the Mystic Dog Mama philosophy. She brings science and soul to her approach in training dogs, but also in supporting their humans to develop deeper connections with their canine companions, and ultimately with themselves.

Annika and I talk about the concept of our dogs being a sacred mirror for us...

Today’s episode is a really special Spotlight Series episode where I bring on other mystic dog mamas to talk about their journeys, and their stories with their dogs. My guest today is Barbara Thompson, who I am grateful to say has become a friend of mine after we first met through the podcasting community. Barbara came to her own spiritual awakening experience rather unexpectedly as a result of her sweet soul dog, a pug named Floss. 

In our conversation, Barbara shares how Floss, and then her dog Mazey, catalysed a deep and transformative per...
