Sharen Martinson is offering to do a one hour animal communication with your animal companion. In the nineties, Sharen used to do animal communcations for over ten years in California. She studied animal communication pioneer Penelope Smith's methods and took a workshop from Carole Gurney. Sharen volunteered with rescue groups and helped private clients. She did hundreds of communications and was well regarded and was featured in the area newspapers. Although Sharen retired to her home town of Marengo, Iowa in 2002, she continued to help family and friends. Recently, after Sharen's Aunt's  sudden death, thanks to C & W's help with fundraising, eight cats were relocated to their permanent sanctuary at Rustic Hollow a few weeks ago. In gratitude, and in  memory of her  Aunt Gloria, Sharen is coming out of 'retirement' to offer and animal communication by telephone. This is not a psychic reading where you are quiet and Sharen tells you things about your animal you already know. Nor does an animal communication session take the place of training or proper care. Sharen will not ask your animal medical questions, if he or she is in pain, or is ready to go. These are issues to decide with your veterinarian. Since animals often mirror back their people's emotions or illnesses, it helps to be open to looking at yourself. In the one-hour session Sharen will help you understand what  your animal may be teaching you. Sharen will turn into your animal and make a heart-to-heart connection. She intuitively will translate the answers to your questions to help you understand you animal's viewpoint. the sessionis interactive with Sharen acting as translator to bring to you your animals' message of the heart.
