Animal Wise

Do you love animals and want to understand more about what they think and feel? Animals of all species have a great deal of wisdom to share with humanity and with you as an individual. The more we understand them, the more we understand ourselves and our connection to the natural world. Join us as we explore the day-to-day thoughts of animals, as well as their deeper perspectives. From playful to profound, Animal Wise brings animal wisdom to your world. For more on Lauren McCall, her experiences, books, classes and lectures check out www.IntegratedAnimal.com. Music by Char.
