Cooperation with animals

We see respectful, nonviolent cooperation with animals, even the smallest and even those usually condemned as “pests,” as an essential key to building a genuine peace culture. Led by two of our community’s elders with extensive experience in these fields, you’ll get an intimate insight into our many years of research of interspecies communication, as part of building a Healing Biotope.

We’ll share our experiences and practical examples and work with exercises. We’ve been many times surprised and moved by the depth of animals’s willingness to cooperate with us, once they can feel that our attitude of trust and nonviolence is authentic. Despite everything that people have done to them.

This course is an intellectual and experiential space, where we’ll rediscover our belonging to the great family of life and perceive how deeply we’re related with animals on a soul level and that we humans will suffer as long as animals suffer.

We know that we’re often limited in our ability to cooperate in the human realms, which affects our ability to communicate with the more-than-human world. So you’ll also learn about building lasting communication and trust between people, and how this leads the way to communicating with animals, mainly through experiencing Forum.
