Wow! Spectacular!
I too have a wolf. Nearly 100% Artic. Bottlefed her as a baby from a wolf santuary and never gave her up.
I know how amazing it is that Apricot was able to settle down to accept someone she didn’t know. What an instinct they have to want the energy she needed so much!
I repeat…Wow!
Shimmering blessings! k

This is so beautiful! My heart lies within wolves and I believe I have a connection with them, whether they are are my totem animal or a spirit guide, so this was a really wonderful and inspiring experience! I wish there were more people like you who would not critize and say wolves are bad without looking deeper into the matter. Much luck with your work !

[...] Blog | September 21, 2010 As of this writing we have 47,000 hits and counting on the Energy Healing Wolf video. Hits on the website have gone up 1000% in the last three months. The wonderful thing is that we are sharing our vision of a different relationship between humans and wild animals with more people – that a better and deeper relationship is truly possible. One of our supporters writes: “Earthfire is doing work on an energetic level that is very moving and they can quickly get the viewer to understand that we have so much to learn from wolves and there is so much more that we can know about them than we had ever taken the time to think about and absorb.” Cherylynn Costner. This is exactly what we hope to help people to realize about ALL wild animals. It is a win-win for both animals and humans. As we become vastly enriched, we work harder to keep a place for them on our planet. To see Energy Healing Wolf and more, click here. [...]

A beautiful experience to view…I’m sure even more Beautiful to experience personally! Wish I were there!!
The Energy does exist that can be passed between us, that which most humans are not aware of on a conscious level. For everyone to see, this wolf is naturally communicating on a level that is attuned with the Energy, is showing the acceptance, knowledge and affects of that Energy.
How beautiful it would be if ALL could learn to live this way.
Will definitely learn more about Earthfire and would love to visit.
Thank you for sharing this story.

This is so touching to watch! We can learn so much from animals. God must love us a lot to give us such amazing beings to live here on the Earth with and learn from. I wish so many people wouldn’t take them for granted… Animals are special

How wonderful to view the natural healing and realize the trust involved! Just wondering if it is Reiki being used?
Comment by Glory Carlile — November 30, 2010 @ 8:57 pm
Reiki was used as one of the modalities — if you are interested in contacting Jill Runnion for her take on Apricot’s healing, please let me know and I will forward to her. Thanks for your interest in Earthfire. Bear hugs!

What a wonderful piece!
This was shared on Facebook; I’d never heard of you guys before. Your work seems very much heart-centered!
Have you heard of Healing Touch for Animals? If not, I’d highly recommend checking out their website &/or their Facebook profile.

It seems to me that you may be interested in collaborating in some way…
Either way….

What a wonderful way to show trust and love between animal and humans. Nice to see what the bond of trust can do for the Energy work to flow.
I just finished having a yoga treatment that was awakening the cells and nerves on my scarded feet by an small ball.
I am doing it for the same outcome as this wolf to be free and heal my body with new energy from up from the feet. I was born with mild spina bifia, my feet have never been normal, they are now though. I am starting a new relationship with my feet, like Apricot is starting out awakening to her new body.
I could feel the release and relax energy going thru Apricot body.

I am a Reiki master and can attest that Reiki can indeed help animals. My dogs react to Reiki just as Apricot did, energy work is a wonderful compliment to caring for your animals.

I cried while watching this. A world like this is how I dream of our future. All species giving and sharing love, healing and resourses.
You are showing the way, your work is wonderful.
One day I would like to visit from the UK.
Many Blessings to you all.
