<p>We had a terrible dog fight on a walk with our dogs resulting in a $2,500 emergency vet bill, frayed nerves, and broken hearts at the prospect of losing a beloved fur baby, if we could not get the behavior under control.</p>
<p>At first I was skeptical of the distance work, but then we got incredibly insightful readings based on both dogs’ needs and how we could manage ourselves to build their confidence and help them with their place in our hearts and home.</p>
<p>After only a couple of small incidents, it&#8217;s been incident free!</p>
<p>My home, family, &amp; pets have been gifted so much peace through working with Lesia.&#8221;</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;I contacted Lesia after my dog <strong>Rosco</strong> had several episodes of urinating in the house, for no apparent reason. Since this had never happened before, a vet was seen first to rule out the obvious possible causes.</p>
<p>After the first session, I could see the value of some further work including help with bouts of excessive barking.  I purchased a 3 session program to include conversation, energy healing/balancing and a home visit. During the sessions, Lesia assisted in determining what was happening along with solid strategies for making changes in behavior. In addition, Lesia coached me for a conversation with our veterinarian for a couple items needing review by a medical professional.</p>
<p>At the end of our time together, my dog is clearly happier and more relaxed. He is no longer barking excitedly without reason and there has not been any further peeing in our home. Hooray! Thank you, Lesia!&#8221;</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;Our dog <strong>Toby </strong>was attacked on 5 separate occasions.We wanted to understand why the attacks kept occurring and break the pattern.</p>
<p>Working with Lesia helped us understand the root cause of his behavior. Once Lesia helped us understood the root causes of the behavior we communicated with Toby and let him know that he could simply be a dog, play and have fun. After talking with Lesia and getting energy healing, we noticed Toby was calmer, more relaxed, and able to go back to playing again. The pattern of attacks stopped.&#8221;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;I appreciated your session with Astarte tremendously. I had pertinent questions, specifically about breeding her, and got the clarification I needed. Given that our session was on the phone, I wondered how well you might be able to tune in to her. Distance didn&#8217;t make any difference because you got to her essence right away.&#8221;  &#160;</p>

I wanted to try out Lesia&#8217;s help but had been concerned about how I would arrange to get Buddy and Lesia together. Working over the phone was so easy and so effective I wondered why I had waited! After the session with Lesia I understood what was behind the behavior and with Lesia’s help determined different ways of handling him. Now I’m scratch free and I can pet him for longer!&#8221;<em><br />

It wasn’t until Lesia did an animal communication session with her and some energy work that she really seemed to turn the corner.  We are now competing again and Snazee seems to be back to herself enjoying what we do together and giving it her all!</p>
