Welcome! Thank you for visiting my
site, a true labor of love! My life's purpose and path is to serve animals
and people in many different ways and at many different levels. Some
of the ways I do this are through the services I offer (see below), my free
bi-monthly email newsletter, and the information provided on this site. This includes assisting others in deepening
the bond with their animal friend through a communication session, including
addressing performance and behavioral issues, offering body scans related to
an animal's health issues, talking with animals who have crossed over and
any other situation or issue except lost pets. I also offer consultations
in holistic animal care, and Bach flower essence and Wild Earth Animal
Essence treatment bottles for animals and people.
And finally, but not less
important, I also thoroughly enjoy offering intuitive/spiritual guidance
sessions for people!
On this site you'll find a
lot of information. See vaccine issues and
other pages related to specific issues (see instructions above for
navigating this site's menus). As well, I assist
people in moving forward on their life path via intuitive guidance sessions
(see more information below). This site was created with a lot of love
and compassion, in honor of people and of animals of all species. My greatest hope
is that you will find the information here useful,
eye-opening, heartwarming, life affirming and/or helpful in some way, and that it benefits you
and you animal companions for years to come. Namaste, Kat

SERVICES OFFERED
See
Services Offered for details about the services I offer
and fees associated therewith.
It gives me great pleasure to be of service to animals and
people! I'd be delighted to do an animal communication session, Bach or Wild
Earth Animal Essences treatment bottle, intuitive guidance session, holistic
animal care consultation, or other service with or for your animal friend or
you.
What is Animal Communication? You can
read about it, and see case examples and testimonials, by clicking on the
options listed in the dropdown menu under the "Communication" section on the
main menu (just put your cursor over "Communication" and the dropdown menu
will appear).
INTUITIVE/SPIRITUAL GUIDANCE In these
sessions I call on your guardians, guides, angels and Higher Self for
information and assistance to help you with any area of your life. General
readings, specific issues/questions, relationships, business matters, etc.
can be explored from a realistic and spiritual perspective. Learn what your
guides want you to know at this time in your life. Tarot cards can be
utilized (information from them is guided by my knowledge of their meanings,
your guardians, angels, guides’ and Higher Self’s input, and my intuition),
or I can just tap in and pass along what comes through from your guides,
Higher Self and my intuition as we talk. To see some of the comments I've
received about these sessions, visit my
Services page and look under Intuitive/Spiritual Guidance. Sessions typically
run 75-90 minutes. To book a session, call me at
210-402-1220 or contact me at
kat@katberard.com. I would be honored to assist you on your life’s
Journey in this way. I am able to tape sessions on standard cassette tapes. Fee
is $100/hr., prorated in 15 minute increments, and includes the tapes and if
you are in the US or Canada, I call you so you don't incur a long
distance charge. For more information about how the sessions work and what I
need from you to do a session, please see my
Intuitive Guidance page.
A few
feedback comments about sessions: “Just wanted to thank you for your time
and your energy! Am thinking about it all and now feel more Free to make a
decision. Love, J.J.” ~ “Thanks so much for taking the time for me, I really
enjoyed the talk, and YOU. You are great to talk to.” A.K. ~ “Thank you very
much for the guidance session. I received the help I had been praying for.
Thanks for helping me visualize a new future.” B.C. ~ “Hi, Kat! You
certainly gave me a lot to think about and explore! I have had many readings
over the years, but what you told me was the most direct and most helpful!”
C.B. To read more feedback comments, see the
Services Offered page.
I
highly recommend taking the appropriate Wild Earth Animal Essences in
conjunction with working on issues that are addressed in a session. This
will facilitate faster processing and movement towards your goals, whatever
they may be (greater understanding, motivation, release of anger, clarity in
relationships or business decisions, etc.). See the
Wild Earth Animal Essence pages for more
information.
TO SCHEDULE A SESSION OR CONSULTATION, ORDER A TREATMENT
BOTTLE, ETC., the fastest way to get a
response is via email
kat@katberard.com or you can call me (see
Contact page). If you have an
immediate/urgent situation (such as immediate euthanasia question), please
both email and call me so I can respond as quickly as possible. [Please note
I am in Texas, in the Central time zone.]

to schedule constraints, I am not accepting lost animal cases. For a list
of communicators who do, please click on

suggestions for how you can greatly improve the chances of finding your lost

MAY 2008 -
N.I.S. (FORMERLY
NEUROLINK) TREATMENT MODALITY IS COMING TO THE U.S. - DON'T MISS
THIS! I am delighted to say that Paul Hellings will be
returning to the States again in May 2008 and will be available for N.I.S.
and Reiki treatments, for animals and people. He will be near Cincinnati in early May, and Philadelphia
in early June. Paul is open to traveling to other areas if there's enough
interest. If you're interested in a treatment session with Paul while he's
here, please email me at
kat@katberard.com. You can also email
him at paul@ahh.co.nz with any
questions. Paul will happily
travel throughout the U.S. if there are enough scheduled sessions in a
particular area to make it economically feasible, given that travel expenses
need to be taken into account. If you coordinate a certain number of
sessions in your area, he'll give you or your animal friend a free
treatment! Contact Paul for more information.

Please peruse my site for helpful information related to holistic care,

more. Also, recommended books on these and many other topics can be found on
my Recommended Books pages, and I
am hopeful that this will be an excellent resource for you. (There is a

on the category title will take you to the relevant page listing related
books.) There is a "SEARCH" feature on the main menu to help you find what
you're looking for. Also, searching the internet for your topic inquiry is highly
recommended, as well as a consultation with your holistic or homeopathic
veterinarian for diagnosis and treatment options. More options include
joining chatlists on Yahoogroups which focus on your topic of interest;
there's no charge to be a member of any list! You'll find information for some of the many animal related chatlists on the
Lists-Holistic Care page. There are
other pages on my site with more lists, please put your cursor over
"Resources" on the main menu and click on what you're interested in on the
drop-down menu.
My site is very extensive (over 100 pages and always growing). There's a
lot of great information up here, which I have provided in the hopes of
helping you help your animal friends in various ways and to educate you
about a variety of topics that may interest you. Use the SEARCH feature (on
the main menu) to make finding information easier if the drop-down menus
don't get you where you want to go. Information provided on this site is for informational
purposes only and is not to be construed as veterinary or medical
advice. Obtain a proper diagnosis from your veterinarian to help you
determine best treatment options for your animal friends.
Holistic/Homeopathic Vets: finding one in your area, or ones Who Offer Phone Consultations
See Links-Holistic Care for how to
find a natural care vet or vet specialist in your area, and for a listing of
a few vets whose work I recommend who can work with you by phone if you
don't have a local holistic/homeopathic vet.
My favorite saying that I
live by:
If you don’t have
at least one thing in your life that makes your heart sing, that shoots you the
“juice”, that “revs” you up and makes you smile and feel content and fulfilled,
and a creative human being, then go find one . . . or six!! My best advice for finding
the key one that evokes your life essence is . . . look back at your life, especially childhood. What was the one thing
(or maybe two or three?) that people chided you about, or laughed at you about because you
were obsessed with it (and perhaps made them uncomfortable with your
zealousness!!)? That’s a place to start. I was always rescuing
animals and nursing them back to health, and it never occurred to me not to. I
wanted to be a vet, a nurse, a horse trainer, a jockey . . . in the end it
boiled down to helping people and animals recover from illness and to be
understood by each other at a non-verbal level. I bonded with animals very
deeply in ways my friends and family could not truly understand. Never in my
wildest dreams would I have thought I’d be doing what I’m doing today, back when
I was a youngster. But I can see the chain of events, the path, that led
me to this moment. Look at all the moments in your life, the links in the
chain, and see where it is still leading you.
Make your life a richer experience by learning about and embracing that which
brings you joy. Accepting that my passion is animals in all forms and conditions
and situations, then opening myself to the many avenues I could explore to be of
service to them, and then choosing those which most resonate with me, has taken
me places I never dreamed of. I am a student of life and of animals. My learning is
never done, so this site will expand and change over time. Please check back and browse again
when you feel so moved.
May the joy of discovery of the common thread that
defines your path be yours! May you receive rich blessings and
experience interesting, character building challenges in your lives.
May that combination of blessings and challenges brings you understanding,
acceptance, peace, joy and/or gratitude for what was, what is and what will be.
And most of all, may you allow yourself to choose freedom in some small way this
year from situations and things that don’t bring you joy, and find new ones that
do. If you’ve
already found your joy, then may it be renewed and refreshed and present itself
through you more vibrantly than ever. Your gift to the Universe and the All That
Is, the One, is being fully who you are. Your gift to humanity is sharing
your joy with all of us, which makes our world a better place to be.
To keep the juices flowing, here's my most
favorite mantra: "All the people, places and opportunities that are for my best
and highest good come into my life now." Know that what comes to you is also for
its/their best and highest good, so it's a win-win situation. Say this phrase
every morning with a genuine smile on your face and gratitude in your heart for
the good things and blessings you do have now, and
watch the movement happen in your life!
Wishing you and yours many blessings and prosperity in all ways! Namaste, Kat
ANNOUNCEMENTS
Wild Earth Animal Essences The Bach flower essences have been very helpful for so many animals and people.
Now available: for people dealing with life issues, spiritual issues, blocks to
personal growth, or who need assistance with moving forward on their path, there
is a line called Wild Earth Animal Essences. These are “gentle remedies for
support and transformation. In the tradition of flower essences, Wild Earth
Animal Essences nurture you with the wisdom and power of wild animals.” Note
that no animals are captured or harmed in the development process. Unlike Bach
and other vibrational essences which are made from a distilling or other process
using the plant or flower, the Wild Earth Animal Essence line is made through a
ceremonial process during which the spirit of the animal is invoked. These
essences are amazingly helpful for people. I will be working on how these might
benefit animals as well. See the Wild Earth Animal
Essences page for details.
Young Living Essential Oils These are
the highest quality oils you'll find, and they're therapeutic grade (unlike
other lines, especially the synthetic ones). They are helpful for mental,
emotional, physical and spiritual issues and conditions, and I've seen them do
amazing things for myself and my animal friends. See My
Essential Oils page for information.
