This visualization meditation is designed to release tension throughout the body while on a dog walk, or sitting with a dog next to you. This guided body scan will slowly, from head to toe, recognize where you may be holding stress and imagine releasing tightness with each exhale. By allowing the body to decompress mindfully, you will be left feeling grounded and centered. When we are calm and stress-free, our dogs tend to reflect back a similar demeanor.

Dog Save The People interview with Annette McGivney -
This mantra meditation is inspired by the powerful Navajo concept of experiencing nature in harmony with all things in our world. It can be a spiritual journey where you feel very strong connection to your dog running off-leash in the woods. It’s also a primal connection of being outside in nature and feeling directly connected to the land, the plants, the wind, the sky, and the birds. To be in balance all beings and the greater universe.

This advisory message provides guidance on how to safely prepare for an off-leash dog walk that protects dogs and wildlife, such as in a public park or nature reserve where it is permitted. It is important to have a reliable recall with your dog so that they can come to you when called. Implementing training tools, like remote tech devices, can also help ensure reliable communication with your dog to signal cues for recall over long distances.

This visualization meditation is designed to help us release the negativity in our lives, to open up to a wider spectrum of compassion and forgiveness. While humans may have a hard time letting go of grudges or negative thoughts, we can take a lesson from our dogs to more assuredly move forward. Dogs don’t linger on the past, they live in the moment and keep going. If we’re able to free our minds of unnecessary burden and instead let go, we can live a better daily life as a result.
