Do you want to deepen your spiritual connection? Do you want to strengthen your bond with animals? What Animals Can Teach Us about Spirituality will help you unlock the secrets of the animal kingdom, provide intriguing perspectives on the complex relationships between nature and humans, and lead you to a greater awareness of yourself and the world around you. Respected animal behaviorist and therapist Diana L. Guerrero demonstrates the ways in which animals can teach us about:

Bringing Out the Best in Each Other Living in the Now Moving Beyond Fear Helping One Another Healing through Life Experiences Living by Example Embracing Change Positively Listening to the Unspoken Unconditional Acceptance Making Time to Play ...and much more

With practical and meaningful advice, Guerrero will help you understand why animals touch the soul, and explore your own answer to the question: "Do animals have souls?"

"This book is a must for anyone who wants to know more about the inner workings of animals and to realize that, they too, are spiritual beings. For those of us who have pets, it's an invaluable opportunity to communicate on a much deeper level." Louise Hay, author of You Can Heal You Life and Empowering Women.

"My animal companions have been an indispensable part of my own spiritual and emotional journey. This book is a beautiful and inspiring guide to deepening your relationship with the animals you love and learning how to receive the lessons and gifts they are here to bring you." Barbara De Angelis, Ph.D., author of Real Moments.

"In What Animals Can Teach Us About Spirituality, Diana L. Guerrero provides us with a heartfelt nexus connecting human spirituality and animal behavior in a new and soul stirring way." Dr. Larry Lachman, Animal Behavior Consultant and Author of Dogs on the Couch, Cats on the Counter, and Birds off the Perch.

"Animals can teach us much about spirituality, but so can Diana Guerrero. She is a knowing and compassionate guide into the deepest heart of the animal world. A warm and generous book." Gayle Brandeis, author of Fruitflesh and The Book of Dead Birds, Winner of the 2002 Bellwether Prize.

"These delightful stories and observations offer a keen insight into the connections we have with the animal kingdom, and remind us of the importance of those bonds." Barbara Davis, author of Darkside of Debonair: The Bushmeat Trade, Winner of the 2003 Benjamin Franklin Award and the Silver Medallion for popular fiction.

"With great insight and wisdom, Diana L. Guerrero translates her many years of experience working closely with animals into this splendid handbook, where scores of fascinating and often moving animal anecdotes are applied to seven levels of human spiritual development. This wise and valuable book reminds us that animals are the often-overlooked but very powerful guides to our own spirituality." Cait Johnson, author of Earth, Water, Fire, and Air: Essential Ways of Connecting to Spirit.

" What Animals Can Teach Us About Spirituality will reveal more than that. It provides insights into the self and strengthens your spirituality whether animals are part of your life or not. And if you are an animal lover, it reinforces the bonds you already enjoy with animals, domestic and wild." Rita Robinson, co-author of Exploring Native American Wisdom.

Move over, Cesar!  Sep 22, 2008
The author's empathy and sincerity become immediately apparent in this must-read book for animal lovers. She sees the fur people of the world as those we are not meant to dominate and destroy, but learn from. This is a splendid book from a person whose heart is truly filled with the love of all things.
 
Translate it in French for mon ami, Brigitte Bardot!  Jan 2, 2008
Diana L. Guerrero has a heart & soul that loves & that understands animals. I wish my kitty, Michel, could meet her. He is a friendly boy!
When I take my riding lessons my concern is about being a good rider but also making sure I don't hurt the horses.
This is a wonderful read. My cousin gave it to me on Christmas. By the day after New Years it was finished because I couldn't put it down except to visit with friends over the holidays.
In a way Michel has met Ms. Guerrero through me after reading her lovely book which reflects her beautiful soul.
 
Moving and inspiring  Jul 22, 2007
This book truly touched me! I'm a real softy when it comes to animals, but until I read this book I had not thought of them as "teachers".

A professional animal trainer, Diana L. Guerrero shares how she has learned as much from the animals as they have learned from her. In many ways, animals are far more noble than humans, and Guerrero illustrates this point time and again.

Read. Learn. And most importantly: Enjoy!!
 
How animals can heighten our spiritual awareness  Jan 7, 2005
Diana Guerror brings us a lovely introduction to many of the ways in which animals can heighten our awareness of our own caring, moral, healing and spiritual qualities. She illustrates these through specific animal examples:

Loyalty - dogs
Playfulness - otters
Power - bears
Heart - lions
Survival - wolves
Vision - eagles
Mind - dolphins
Wisdom - owls

This book is a good invitation to reflections on how we can be more mindful of many of these qualities in our lives, and how we can extend our investments in healing - ourselves and others - beyond our own species. It can serve as a good introduction to spiritual dimensions as well, particularly for those who might not be open yet to the broader dimensions of psychic animal and spirit communications.
 
A Warm and Wonderful Read  Jan 31, 2004
A beautifully written glimpse into the psyche of both humans and animals. As a writer I enjoyed Ms Guerrero's descriptions of her personal interactions with both tame and wild animals and felt very much a part of her adventures. Prior to reading Diana's book I thought I knew my buddy, a 100lb Akita, very well. Now I not only notice my dog's subtle clues but have a greater understanding of their meaning. This is a "must read" for all lovers of the spiritual messages of nature.
Robena June Schaerf, author of Granton Manor and Morgan's Ridge
