The following are people or companies I know well and
trust implicitly. They have provided me with excellent service and very
accurate information over the years, and have the highest integrity.
ENERGY HEALING FOR ANIMALS AND PEOPLE
Mary Ann Bumbera (Gurnee, Illinois, 847-918-8687
wholenesshealing@comcast.net). Mary
Ann is a Reiki Master, a Practitioner of Quantum Touch, Shamanism, Healing
Touch for Animals and is an Animal Communicator. She specializes in distance
healings, meaning distance is no object to this work.
The following text is Mary Ann's description of her work: “All beings - be
they plant, animal or human - are made up of energy. And all beings have
layers of energy surrounding their physical bodies. These layers - known as an
aura or energy field - play an integral part in healing the physical body. An
energy healer uses learned techniques to cleanse the energy field surrounding
the physical body, or the energy in the physical body itself, of whatever may
be preventing the body from healing. This can include anything from an
unresolved emotion being stored in the physical body, to stagnant energy as a
result of an injury. By releasing these blocks, the body can heal itself more
effectively. Energy healing is always done with the intent of the best and
highest good for the being who is receiving healing.
Energy healing works by a domino effect. To begin with, it is very relaxing.
It creates a relaxation response from endorphins that are released, which
causes the muscles to relax. When the muscles relax or open up, this allows
for better circulation, which in turn allows for more oxygen to flow through
the body, which strengthens the immune system.
Energy healing does not have to be performed hands-on. It can, with the same
effectiveness, be performed long distance in the same way animal communication
can be performed at a distance. Because we are all energetic beings, energy
can be felt standing right next to a person/animal, or many miles away.
Energy healing can be beneficial in dealing with cancer. Because cancer is
embryonic in nature, cancer cells vibrate to a lower frequency than the rest
of the body. Due to this slowed down embryonic state, the body thinks it needs
to feed the tumor with blood. Thus cancer grows. Energy healing helps to raise
the frequency of the malignant cell to inhibit its growth. If the animal is
receiving chemotherapy or radiation, energy healing is helpful. Although
chemotherapy and radiation can retard or stop malignant growth, these
therapies can also lower the body's basic vibration level. Through energy healing,
the body's vibration can be maintained at a higher level to support the growth
of healthy cells as well as assisting in pain relief.
Another way in which energy healing can be beneficial is with an animal's
crossing over. By keeping the energy centers, or chakras, flowing and open,
the animal can be assisted in making the energy shift that we call death.
NOTE: Energy healing is NOT a panacea or to be used in lieu of any medical
protocol in dealing with a serious illness that requires a medical/holistic
regimen. It is a complementary treatment to enhance a chosen protocol to clear
stagnant energy in the physical and aural bodies, allowing for greater
efficacy of healing. “
Mary Ann has worked on my animal friends, with amazing results. For more
information or to schedule an appointment, please contact Mary Ann.

EZ Dog Personal Training
for Your Dog and You
KAT says, I
found a great trainer in the San Antonio/Bexar County Area! His name is Peter
Geenberg. Peter says, "I am a certified dog trainer who will work
with you to create a personalized training program which fits the needs of
both you and your canine companions. Your private, in-home lessons are
arranged to suit your schedule and my training philosophy includes the use of
positive, humane methods. My goal is to assist in enhancing your relationship
with your canine companion in order to develop a happy, healthy member of your
family. I first began working with dogs in 1975 as an Air Force dog
handler/trainer. As my interests and experience continued to expand I
enrolled in and completed the Canine Training and Behavior Specialist Program
at Triple Crown Academy, an internationally known facility for dog trainers.
I also received a Certificate of Completion from Kat Berard’s wonderful and
informative Basic Animal Communication Workshop. To set up a free evaluation
or to answer any questions you may have, please contact me:

Protect Your Pets In the Event of Your
Incapacity or Death According to one estimate, one-half million pets
are euthanized in U.S. shelters each year because their human caregivers have
predeceased them. I can’t stress enough how important it is to ensure you have
protections in place for the care of your pets should you die or become
otherwise incapacitated and unable to care for them. I’m in the process of
updating my pet trust and thought I’d share with you my wonderful attorney,
James D. Rosenblatt. I’ve worked with James in the past in my Paralegal
career, and find him as delightful in his role as my personal attorney as I
did when we were coworkers. If you live in Texas, James would be happy to
assist you in setting up a pet trust, whether separately or as part of a Will.
You can reach James at The Rosenblatt Law Firm in San Antonio at (210)
614-9444. Please tell him you heard about him through this newsletter. Feel
free to pass his name along! If you are outside Texas and interested in
setting up a pet trust, check with your estate planning attorney, or search
the internet for “pet trust attorney”. Let’s make sure all pets are protected
in this way.
Eyes – Specialized Care Shouldn’t Be Neglected Only a handful of
veterinary hospitals in the country are dedicated solely to the treatment and
surgery of animal eyes. Charles Bonney, DVM and his clinic, Animal Eye
Hospital, are located on East Rhapsody in San Antonio. He is my animal eye
care specialist. My animals love Dr. Bonney and with good reason – he’s
friendly, genuine, and is well respected by the veterinary community for his
knowledge and skill (his clinic has been open since 1969). He has a gentle
manner, and is a sucker for handing out a treat or three (Barney has his
number!). Any time your animal friend has an eye injury, or with an older
animal (I recommend starting annual vision checks at your pet’s age 6,
regardless of species or breed), have their vision checked by an eye
specialist. It’s much easier to prevent or stop serious problems at the first
sign than try to deal with the aftermath of damage that can occur as the eye
ages. I highly recommend Dr. Bonney and his staff. You can reach him at (210)
349-5831. For equine patients, farm/ranch calls are available.
PSYCHIC/SPIRITUAL COUNSELING, ASTROLOGY, NUMEROLOGY/RUNE REPORTS
Each of these people
have their own little niche of expertise. You may want to call each one
for details about their work. The information they convey ranges from
everyday helpful to downright profound, and gives you plenty to work with. All
three of them tape the phone sessions and send the cassette tape to you.
I've known each of them for 6+ years, first as a student, then as a client,
now as a friend. I am blessed to know them, and they have been and are
instrumental in guiding me on my life's path.
Juelle Wilkins
(Crestone, Colorado, 719-256-4223) Juelle
is an instructor of metaphysical/spiritual matters, cosmic consciousness and
the creative force. She also acts as a channel (similar to a medium but her
personality “steps aside” while this is happening) for "The Council", a
collective voice of Ascended Masters and the Angelic realm who provide
profound and timely information and guidance about life issues, spirituality,
your path this lifetime, past lives, life changing decisions, self-limiting
belief systems, and more.
Personal sessions with Juelle/The Council (by telephone) are really useful
when you’re at a deciding point of what happens next and how to take those
next steps. You may learn about how the principle of “cause and effect” is
affecting your life now, the synchronicity of events which occur in your life,
and the reasons behind them. These sessions are very interesting; anything can
be explored, from personal issues this lifetime that may be blocking you from
doing what you’re meant to do can be explored, to why you have not yet met
your ”soulmate” and whether you have one (if that is an issue for you) , and
much more. Session rate is $100 per hour.
Juelle is also the author of The Walk-In: An Inspiring Story of a Spiritual
Homecoming. From the book jacket, " 'In one remarkable exchange of
spirits, Shari's soul left her body and Juelle's soul moved in.' And so begins
the straightforward personal account of The Walk-In, a narrative that
describes the life of Shari as a girl, wife and mother, and the amazing story
of Juelle, the woman Shari became. Are Walk-Ins more enlightened souls from
God's reservoir of marvels who change places with a soul that is tired and
yearns to go home? Has the universe throughout history sent spiritual
messengers to change places with original souls whose human manifestations
have divine tasks to perform? These and dozes of other perplexing, fundamental
questions are addressed in The Walk-In, the marvelous, gentle and compelling
story of Shari and Juelle, whose transformation may be an everyday miracle on
earth." To order, see the Media-Books-Soul Awareness page on my website.
Juelle and her husband, Donovan, are dear friends of mine. I was blessed to be
part of their pilgrimage to Bali, Indonesia several years ago, part of which
is detailed on the page about my horse, Bubba's,
passing and what it taught me. The Council’s messages have had a profound
impact on my life, and have helped me make sense of my life and my
path/purpose. Juelle and Donovan lead spiritual (not religious) pilgrimages
each year to amazing places, and they get behind the scenes where most
tourists never have the opportunity to go or to experience. My trip to Bali
helped me understand spiritual questions I had, helped me find answers to
issues that had been plaguing me, and helped me come home to myself in a
deeper way.
Juelle and Donovan have been conducting workshops and leading international
pilgrimages for many years. Juelle channels the Council, a collective voice of
the Ascended Masters and the Angelic realm. I’ve been to a number of their
workshops and retreats as well, and they are rejuvenating, enlightening and
soul-affirming. I've had several private sessions with The Council and all I
can say is, they know what I need to hear and to learn whenever I connect with
them.
For a few of many channeled, profound messages from The Council to humanity,
please see my Spirituality page. The second
paragraph on that page provides links to those writings.
Jill Dahne (Florida) Jill is
known as the marriage psychic. Please visit her website at
www.jilldahne.com for more

she has predicted over 750 marriages, helped save numerous lives, and is a consultant to major businesses and industry professionals."

subconscious self, life challenges, karmic lessons and much more. I have found
the information to be very accurate and helpful. Included is a daily horoscope
forecast which can help you focus your day. Also included is a comparison of
the various forms of your name (for instance, Kathleen A. Berard, Kat Berard,
Kathleen Berard) which provides information as to which name is most powerful,
appropriate and supportive for you to go by in different applications (such as

Rhamey, Psychic and Spiritual Counselor Jeanne is a gifted psychic in San
Antonio whom I have had the pleasure of working with and have had readings
from. She also teaches various classes in tarot, abundance/prosperity, color
therapy and more. Jeanne's readings are always insightful and inspirational.

life solutions and spiritual development. They come from a combination of

psychic connection with the client. Readings available: General, Relationship,
Past Life, Career & Business, Spiritual Growth, Yearly and Birthday Readings,

Marci Van Ausdall, Teddy Bear maker/Lavender
grower/Artist "Hi Kat! We moved to a little farm a few years ago and
do what animal rescue work we can on a smaller basis on our own. 4 The Animals
Teddy bear Company: I began making and designing teddy bears as an escape from
the sad, sad things I saw on a daily basis as a State Humane Officer and
Director of a California Humane Society. My teddy bears are all ‘one of a
kind’, each lovingly hand-crafted from German Mohair with hand blown glass
eyes. They come in all sizes, with realistic or comical personalities in
dozens of luscious colors from rich browns and tans to lavenders, pinks and
blue hues. They are all fully jointed with hand embroidered noses, shaved
muzzles and festive neckwear. My bears are collector quality and are not
intended for play by small children. The money from my bears all goes towards
food and medical for animals we care for at our small animal rescue farm in
Northern Washington. I do not have a website (no time to design one!) but will
be happy to send photos of bears ready for adoption via email or by CD thru
the mail. I welcome requests and offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee on every
bear I make. These bears would make wonderful gifts and can be personalized to
fit the recipient. We also grow a large, beautiful field of organic
lavender here, too. It is a wonderful herb to help one to relax, relieve a
headache or as a sleep aid. I have it available to ship in bunches, loose buds
or as eye pillows in purple silk pouches. It is all hand picked and a true
labor of love. I also make hand embroidered wool felt greeting cards (blank
inside). I specialize in cats but can do all animals. They are $5. each. I
enjoy doing special order colors or likenesses of your pets, too. Please email
me for photos of these items.” Marci Van Ausdall, Lavender Dreams Farm,

Paula Gower, Artist “We are limited only
by our imagination. These words are important to me as an artist, whose
creativity is vital to my work. Bored with limiting myself to painting only on
canvas, I decided the whole world had artistic possibilities, and just cried
out to be made beautiful. I turned my artistic talents to many other mediums,
including clothing, wood, metal ,if it’s blank I can imagine an animal painted
on it! I paint on wooden trunks, turning them into doggy toy boxes, or tack
boxes. Old wooden cabinet doors, become bridle/ leash or even a coat rack. My
hand painted mailboxes have been carried by several large on line canine gift
catalogs, and are presently on The Mailbox Ranch , and my own website. I paint
denim jackets, shirts and canvas totes with dogs or horses or wildlife.”
