00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:42.979

3

00:00:42.980 --> 00:01:02.469

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Today we are chatting with Alena. Seeley Foster, Alena is a generational and intuitive healer who helps people animals and nature reconnect with their innate wisdom to identify imbalances, heal pain and gain soul level clarity inspired by the wolves of Yellowstone. She teaches us how animals

4

00:01:02.470 --> 00:01:13.259

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: act as oracles and guides, reminding us we are all connected, and we're never truly alone. Welcome to the show, Elena. It's great to have you with me, and I can't wait to talk about these wolves.

5

00:01:13.940 --> 00:01:17.890

Allana Foster: Thank you, Jill. It's really good to be here. I'm excited for this conversation.

6

00:01:18.770 --> 00:01:29.519

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Okay, so let me ask you the big question to kick us off. And that is what's the most significant thing in your opinion. As individuals we can do to make an impact on how the world is going.

7

00:01:30.820 --> 00:01:37.470

Allana Foster: Well, because I deal with well, because I have a love for animals and and nature.

8

00:01:38.090 --> 00:01:56.099

Allana Foster: I believe that the most important thing that we can do is to understand that we are not disconnected from animals and nature, that we all are quantumly connected, and we also share a collective consciousness

9

00:01:56.490 --> 00:01:59.779

Allana Foster: and everything that we do as humans affect

10

00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:07.529

Allana Foster: the whole collective of the planet. Each individual person has the ability to start with yourself.

11

00:02:07.760 --> 00:02:33.199

Allana Foster: heal yourself, address the hard stuff so that we can vibrate out and affect others. That's the most powerful thing that you can do is to start with you so that you can. And I say, affect because your vibrational being in wellness is going to help others and help the planet and animals will. Naturally.

12

00:02:34.500 --> 00:02:37.906

Allana Foster: I was, gonna say flock to you.

13

00:02:39.180 --> 00:02:45.100

Allana Foster: Pay attention to you when you're in a calm, assertive space.

14

00:02:47.270 --> 00:02:49.270

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And they do come to us.

15

00:02:49.400 --> 00:02:54.190

Allana Foster: Yes, they do pay attention. That's right. I've had lots of experiences with them.

16

00:02:55.470 --> 00:03:02.740

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Interacting with me on on different levels. And we were talking before about wolves, and

17

00:03:02.910 --> 00:03:11.659

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: before we started recording. And I told you I was going to tell you the story of a wolf that I actually saw on a walk that I was on.

18

00:03:11.790 --> 00:03:18.759

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: and it just hit me that it happened at a time of really large transformation in my life.

19

00:03:18.920 --> 00:03:34.720

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: and it was a lone wolf. I was walking my dogs. I had about 5 or 6 or 7 dogs at this point in my life, and I used to walk them along this back path, and there there was a big field, and then there was the mountains behind us, and we would

20

00:03:34.900 --> 00:03:57.679

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: they were free. So they they saw the animal up on the in the pasture, like up from where we were, and I they took off running towards it, and it stood up on its hind legs. And that's how I knew it was a wolf, because dogs don't stand up like that to view what's going on. But it was all by itself

21

00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:01.800

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: was just. They turned around and came back when they realized what it was.

22

00:04:03.470 --> 00:04:18.767

Allana Foster: Yeah, that's an amazing encounter. And you know, I like the fact that you said the dogs knew, you know, because dogs do know. I mean they you know they are of, you know, descendants of the wolves

23

00:04:19.329 --> 00:04:24.250

Allana Foster: and the and but they also know they recognize wild

24

00:04:24.793 --> 00:04:30.429

Allana Foster: you know I have coyotes around here where I live, and and we have a lot of coyotes.

25

00:04:30.859 --> 00:04:44.920

Allana Foster: But you know you see them certain times, and they come out in during the day, too, but they really come out at night because they've learned they've learned to avoid humans as much as possible. But there is a delicacy of food here in our pets.

26

00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:50.959

Allana Foster: and so I had a dog a few years ago who was

27

00:04:52.070 --> 00:04:58.320

Allana Foster: A coyote came over the wall, and she was older at the time, and I had it happen a couple of times.

28

00:04:58.460 --> 00:05:25.770

Allana Foster: but she knew she froze. I happened to see the encounter. You know I was there, and she knew if she moved one, because they were almost like a foot apart, nose to nose. She was frozen, and it was frozen in the moment, too, but she knew 100. That thing is not supposed to be here, and will harm me so luckily that encounter, you know. Nothing happened with that encounter, but there was a second one where it came over 5 Am.

29

00:05:26.260 --> 00:05:36.939

Allana Foster: When I was taking her out to, you know. Use the restroom, and it snagged it. It zeroed in on her. It knew exactly where she was over the other side of the the brick wall, and it came down like a bullet

30

00:05:37.010 --> 00:06:04.360

Allana Foster: focused on her, snagged her, rolled her because it didn't expect me. You know. It may have known I was there by smell. But basically it did not expect me being a big banshee, you know, coming after going towards it. So it just grabbed or snagged her, went right back over the wall. But that changed a lot for us because I realized that we weren't. I mean, I I knew you know they were here, but to have it. That close was really a life changer

31

00:06:04.969 --> 00:06:11.049

Allana Foster: for us, and how we interacted with, you know, our backyard.

32

00:06:11.610 --> 00:06:12.440

Allana Foster: So.

33

00:06:12.440 --> 00:06:14.390

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Animals are getting more.

34

00:06:14.930 --> 00:06:15.710

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I

35

00:06:16.200 --> 00:06:37.420

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I want to use the word brazen over the over the last, maybe 30 or 40 years. I remember I lived in California a long time, and my dad lives in Arizona, and he's lived down there for almost 30 years now in a in a gated community. But the coyotes walk down the middle of the street during the day. They're just they.

36

00:06:37.630 --> 00:06:38.060

Allana Foster: Yeah.

37

00:06:38.060 --> 00:06:39.979

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: You know, they're coyotes. They look

38

00:06:40.090 --> 00:06:43.819

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: like they own the place, and you know they

39

00:06:44.240 --> 00:06:57.479

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: there's not really anything you can do about it, because, you know, they're they live near golf courses, so water and rabbits and all the food. And yes, you can take them back out. But they're just going to come back, and they're going to bring their buddies because they know where it's at.

40

00:06:58.020 --> 00:07:09.499

Allana Foster: Well, yeah. And you know, just like wolves, they're territorial, just like our dogs are territorial. And once you, you know, remove a wolf, you're also. You're also affecting their entire family.

41

00:07:09.640 --> 00:07:14.839

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Same thing with a wolf, you know you shoot a wolf or the wolf dies, or you know, whatever.

42

00:07:15.352 --> 00:07:18.170

Allana Foster: And that it disrupts the whole pack.

43

00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:24.509

Allana Foster: So that's you know that. And and think about it. I mean, this is where wolves and why I, you know.

44

00:07:24.640 --> 00:07:39.749

Allana Foster: am fascinated with wolves as well, is that you know there's a connection that we have with wolves and dogs that are unlike any other species, you know. Our DNA relatives are in the

45

00:07:40.372 --> 00:07:45.239

Allana Foster: you know. 8 line right? We share some DNA with them.

46

00:07:45.410 --> 00:07:49.645

Allana Foster: but they do not have the same

47

00:07:53.470 --> 00:08:03.140

Allana Foster: social behavior that we have, and that wolves have. You know, wolves raise families. They have aunties and uncles. They all have jobs.

48

00:08:03.683 --> 00:08:28.360

Allana Foster: You know, we you know, we have leadership. We, we seek leadership in our families. So wolves companionship, cooperation, communication with each other. Organization daily routine and safety, as well as we seek guidance from our elders and wolves do all those same exact things.

49

00:08:29.350 --> 00:08:30.280

Allana Foster: So

50

00:08:31.230 --> 00:08:40.319

Allana Foster: so coyotes do it. Dogs do it, and that's why dogs live with us. Because, you know, we have cats, too, and I don't know if you've ever had a cat. We have a first.st

51

00:08:40.320 --> 00:08:41.209

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: 3 of them. Yeah.

52

00:08:41.210 --> 00:09:09.552

Allana Foster: Okay, so I've never had a cat live in my house before until the last 2 years after my dog that had the coyote incident passed away. She was 16 and a half, and I was trying not to have a dog which is so crazy because I've had dogs my whole life. I'm like I need a break. What would my life be like without a dog? Well, I now have a 11 month old puppy, because I couldn't handle it, you know, but the cats are a little different, but they're still, you know, species within our homes. And

53

00:09:10.460 --> 00:09:15.199

Allana Foster: you know. But dogs are definitely pack animals. And so are we.

54

00:09:15.630 --> 00:09:17.590

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: That's what we have in common.

55

00:09:18.271 --> 00:09:23.190

Allana Foster: And also, you know, what's very fascinating to me is

56

00:09:23.440 --> 00:09:29.919

Allana Foster: there are many indigenous stories of wolves and humans, and how we

57

00:09:29.940 --> 00:09:55.470

Allana Foster: came in together as one when you know of creation stories that that the wolves and and and humans existed together, and we raised our families the same, and that the wolves taught us how to be families, and we made a pact with them. You know you go do your thing. We'll go do our thing. And then, unfortunately.

58

00:09:55.490 --> 00:10:00.920

Allana Foster: humans broke the path. The you know the the pack.

59

00:10:01.260 --> 00:10:13.690

Allana Foster: So you know. So now we're in conflict with them, and part of the you know. The other piece is that whatever happens to the wolves happens to us, our fates are interconnected.

60

00:10:13.850 --> 00:10:30.430

Allana Foster: So you know, without getting too political, because there's a lot of really gnarly political stuff that always goes on about the wolves, and especially when they were reintroduced to Yellowstone. I lived in Salt Lake city at the time when they were reintroduced. I always loved wolves. I've always had dogs, but

61

00:10:30.900 --> 00:10:38.480

Allana Foster: I was getting newspaper stories, you know, when we had news. Well, we probably still have newspapers, but I had a friend that would clip out articles and give them to me.

62

00:10:38.910 --> 00:10:45.980

Allana Foster: and I didn't ask her. She just says, I think you love wolves, and I'm going to give these to you. And I kept them for years. And so

63

00:10:48.220 --> 00:10:51.780

Allana Foster: you know, we have a lot of hate towards wolves.

64

00:10:52.170 --> 00:10:59.660

Allana Foster: and there's a lot of love and fascination with wolves. There's a lot of people that are fighting to protect the rights of the wolves

65

00:10:59.910 --> 00:11:03.149

Allana Foster: and a lot of people that just don't want them here at all.

66

00:11:04.180 --> 00:11:08.149

Allana Foster: I'm not sure if you're aware that California now has wolves.

67

00:11:08.360 --> 00:11:10.759

Allana Foster: we didn't have them for a long, long time.

68

00:11:10.910 --> 00:11:19.859

Allana Foster: and there's at least, I think, 50 to 70 all along the State. They just don't go much south of.

69

00:11:20.700 --> 00:11:33.519

Allana Foster: Oh, what is it like? The Sierra end of the Sierra Nevada? So like around mammoth Bishop area, I think we've got some in there, and you know they're healthy. They're raising families.

70

00:11:33.950 --> 00:11:44.789

Allana Foster: And of course we've got the advocates that's like Yay wolves again. Yay, and the other ones that are just like we got to get them out of here got to wipe them out. So if you think about that.

71

00:11:45.840 --> 00:11:58.342

Allana Foster: you know, we have a lot of stuff going on with humans right now, too. Right? We've caught the conflict of of our lives. And what's important. And you know, food and food scarcity.

72

00:11:59.170 --> 00:12:01.599

Allana Foster: you know. So I find that

73

00:12:01.920 --> 00:12:07.798

Allana Foster: pretty interesting. You know that we're in this space right now with so much conflict.

74

00:12:08.320 --> 00:12:10.260

Allana Foster: again with the wolves.

75

00:12:10.430 --> 00:12:18.010

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Interesting when you talk about food scarcity, part of that is driven by the fact that people aren't taught how to

76

00:12:18.890 --> 00:12:27.760

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: feed themselves. That's right. Most basic animal instinct is to be able to find

77

00:12:28.170 --> 00:12:34.740

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: nutrition. But because of the way we've evolved along the way.

78

00:12:34.840 --> 00:12:43.699

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: we just don't teach our children how to grow food, how to find food that exists all around us.

79

00:12:43.920 --> 00:12:44.280

Allana Foster: Right.

80

00:12:44.603 --> 00:13:08.236

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Or how to hunt, if that's your thing, or how to fish. And you know, people think, Oh, if the world end of the world comes, I'll just start a garden. Well, I'm here to tell you, honey, I it takes a little bit more than I'll just plant a few seeds, and they'll grow and nourish our family. It just doesn't work like that, especially with the way the soil is everywhere.

81

00:13:08.710 --> 00:13:09.630

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And

82

00:13:10.770 --> 00:13:22.375

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: you know things like hunting and fishing. Those are skills that you acquire over years of practice where you would go hungry if you were depending on it.

83

00:13:23.170 --> 00:13:34.210

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And I think the animals are having the same experience because of the way people have decided to live in in communities. They've they've realized that, you know.

84

00:13:34.630 --> 00:13:38.029

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: You know, your dog is a perfect example. Hey!

85

00:13:39.100 --> 00:13:40.490

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Grocery stores.

86

00:13:40.490 --> 00:13:40.970

Allana Foster: Great.

87

00:13:40.970 --> 00:13:58.510

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Our homes are like grocery stores for the wildlife. They come in and take their pick of whatever they want, and that's where the conflict comes in with a lot of the farmers and the cattle ranchers, which are primarily the ones that are like screaming about the wolves coming, because, you know.

88

00:13:58.820 --> 00:14:00.180

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: baby calves.

89

00:14:00.620 --> 00:14:01.340

Allana Foster: Oh, yeah.

90

00:14:01.340 --> 00:14:04.646

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: They're easy to. They're easy to pick off.

91

00:14:05.270 --> 00:14:19.670

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And again, it's it's the way we've evolved as humans is really dictating how animals are also having to respond to how they're living in the world. So it's a really interesting.

92

00:14:19.900 --> 00:14:34.050

Allana Foster: Yeah, absolutely. So, you know, if you live in a place like you know where it's a little more you know, rural, you know you're gonna have maybe not so many animals coming into your neighborhood, you know, to come and get your your pet, you know. But.

93

00:14:34.050 --> 00:14:39.860

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: We've had mountain lions come into neighborhoods. That's right. I live in Preston, Idaho, and

94

00:14:40.050 --> 00:14:43.039

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: there's there was a mountain lion print on

95

00:14:43.230 --> 00:14:50.810

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: on a in a field just down the street from me, and I knew somebody that actually chased a mountain lion out of town

96

00:14:51.180 --> 00:14:54.330

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: just around the corner from me. So.

97

00:14:54.600 --> 00:15:15.400

Allana Foster: Yeah, so it's interesting. Because so I lived rurally in the Salt Lake area. We had a house that pretty much. We we were able to build the house, and then behind us was like pretty much nothing and and so the 1st thing I noticed was coyote and well coyotes everywhere but coyote and mountains, mountain lion tracks.

98

00:15:15.660 --> 00:15:39.800

Allana Foster: And because we knew, you know, that we were in an area that was you know more that was more accessible to those animals that we made sure our dogs were always secure. You know they were with us. They were in a pen. They never had free range in a in the yard without us there, and and so I. So then, now, being back here in Southern California.

99

00:15:40.120 --> 00:15:44.380

Allana Foster: one of the interesting things is, we have so many people that are so anti coyote

100

00:15:44.510 --> 00:16:06.579

Allana Foster: that they don't really understand that when people will say, Well, you know, keep your animals indoors. Well, they're fighting against that. They want to eradicate the coyote. You're never going to eradicate the coyote. 1st of all, it's not going to happen. And you know. Learn, then, to coexist, and that seems so easy. It's really not that easy. But what it does is it takes the

101

00:16:06.860 --> 00:16:18.710

Allana Foster: we want to. We want to be able to believe that we should just be able to go in our backyards. Have the little dogs, you know, run around, do whatever or the cats that cats can be out. But in reality, what we're doing is we're just.

102

00:16:19.090 --> 00:16:23.040

Allana Foster: We're not taking in consideration that we live around wild animals.

103

00:16:23.460 --> 00:16:29.929

Allana Foster: and the more dense of a population. I think people believe that wild animals shouldn't be living there.

104

00:16:30.520 --> 00:16:43.849

Allana Foster: And so I mean seriously, that's how it is around. You know that. Oh, they shouldn't be here. We've got to do something about it. Let's have a meeting, you know. Let's let's, you know, call the whatever departments and have them, you know, pick them up and relocate it.

105

00:16:43.850 --> 00:16:44.779

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Shoot them like.

106

00:16:44.780 --> 00:16:50.429

Allana Foster: Yeah, shoot them. And and it's and then so. But these are also some of the same people that.

107

00:16:50.640 --> 00:16:51.910

Allana Foster: And here's the thing.

108

00:16:53.620 --> 00:17:05.409

Allana Foster: You know people love squirrels. Okay, they love their backyard squirrels. They love feeding squirrels at the park. They love feeding the ducks and the squirrels and the ducks would not be there if there wasn't already food.

109

00:17:06.060 --> 00:17:18.260

Allana Foster: just like you were saying. If there wasn't food they wouldn't be there. So when you feed these animals you're disrupting their behavior to be a wild animal.

110

00:17:18.790 --> 00:17:23.399

Allana Foster: I know a lot of people get joy of feeding the squirrels, and they get joy by

111

00:17:23.640 --> 00:17:37.149

Allana Foster: bird feeders and getting bringing the birds into their yard. But I don't have any of that in my backyard, and I still get the birds, and I still get the squirrels, so they're still going to come. But I don't. I don't feed them.

112

00:17:37.320 --> 00:17:52.530

Allana Foster: because I don't want to change the behavior I get. You know. Really, I get kind of cranky when I go to the public parks around here, and there's all the signs everywhere, and it says, you know, do not feed the wildlife. It's actually illegal to feed the wildlife. And then here comes somebody with their bread.

113

00:17:53.060 --> 00:17:53.870

Allana Foster: you know, and.

114

00:17:53.870 --> 00:17:54.980

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Really bad for ducks.

115

00:17:54.980 --> 00:18:08.390

Allana Foster: It's really bad for ducks. And so, and even there's even signs that say that do not feed, especially bred because it causes angel wings. The duck can't fly, can't you know, fend for itself? And then basically, it ends up dead.

116

00:18:08.630 --> 00:18:11.049

Allana Foster: And so but you know, people aren't.

117

00:18:11.260 --> 00:18:30.339

Allana Foster: So there's that thing of the superiority of humans. And how humans, I think this is the one thing that's really just the tough thing about humans is that we have a belief that we are superior to animals, and without us they won't survive. And it's so not true.

118

00:18:30.660 --> 00:18:33.049

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: It's the complete opposite.

119

00:18:33.410 --> 00:18:39.559

Allana Foster: So right and so and then nature knows what nature is doing.

120

00:18:39.910 --> 00:18:45.029

Allana Foster: and so when we interfere, it really changes so much.

121

00:18:45.460 --> 00:18:46.060

Allana Foster: I was.

122

00:18:46.060 --> 00:18:48.780

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Seem to want to interfere everywhere.

123

00:18:48.780 --> 00:18:51.389

Allana Foster: Everywhere. That's right. That's right.

124

00:18:51.390 --> 00:18:52.240

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Be crazy.

125

00:18:52.240 --> 00:18:53.950

Allana Foster: And we don't know how to stop.

126

00:18:54.510 --> 00:18:56.870

Allana Foster: you know that's the that's the hard part.

127

00:18:56.870 --> 00:18:59.220

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Cause. It's all money driven at this point.

128

00:18:59.220 --> 00:18:59.550

Allana Foster: Yeah.

129

00:18:59.550 --> 00:19:06.080

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: It's like there's money in it. So let's you know, we'll do whatever we want to do. And

130

00:19:06.450 --> 00:19:07.680

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: it's just like.

131

00:19:08.900 --> 00:19:17.430

Allana Foster: I know it's hard, and it's complicated, because it gets to be very frustrating and honestly heartbreaking. It's heartbreaking, you know. So.

132

00:19:17.430 --> 00:19:19.379

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: To Alaska and live out in the middle of nowhere.

133

00:19:21.180 --> 00:19:23.680

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Well, you know, to go hunt my own food.

134

00:19:23.860 --> 00:19:44.571

Allana Foster: And then, and that's another thing I wanted to to touch on for me personally is, I am not opposed to hunters or fish. You know, people that are ethical hunters, ethical, you know, people that are fishing because it is a skill. And I, you know, when I lived in Utah, having having been raised here in Southern California. It was very

135

00:19:45.530 --> 00:19:52.619

Allana Foster: foreign, you know, for me to see all the people leaving for the weekend to go, you know they got their tags for their.

136

00:19:52.983 --> 00:19:55.890

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: School on the 1st day of hunting season.

137

00:19:55.890 --> 00:20:02.869

Allana Foster: Because, like holiday, you know, and it's like widows weekend. You know, the women are left behind, which isn't true. All the way around women are.

138

00:20:02.870 --> 00:20:03.340

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Love it.

139

00:20:03.340 --> 00:20:03.680

Allana Foster: Well.

140

00:20:03.680 --> 00:20:04.260

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Yeah.

141

00:20:04.569 --> 00:20:12.310

Allana Foster: But you know there's a difference between ethical hunters and non ethical hunters, and I experienced those non ethical hunters as well, you know. So

142

00:20:12.860 --> 00:20:17.569

Allana Foster: so I do appreciate that, and I respect it. But you know people that kill wolves.

143

00:20:17.690 --> 00:20:18.999

Allana Foster: You don't eat a wolf.

144

00:20:20.220 --> 00:20:24.130

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: No, there's not really any reason to kill a wolf.

145

00:20:24.130 --> 00:20:25.689

Allana Foster: You're doing it for trophy

146

00:20:26.150 --> 00:20:38.630

Allana Foster: and for because I don't like wolves, you know, I mean, I don't know any other reason. There would be maybe thinking, oh, we're doing it a favor, something with the elk, I mean, there's all kinds of stuff, you know. Again, you know. You can look this stuff up.

147

00:20:38.630 --> 00:20:41.560

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: It's it's balance.

148

00:20:42.070 --> 00:20:45.749

Allana Foster: Well, well, if we left it alone, it would balance itself out.

149

00:20:45.750 --> 00:20:47.149

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Exactly. That's what I'm saying.

150

00:20:47.730 --> 00:20:50.530

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: You don't need to be involved in the.

151

00:20:50.530 --> 00:20:50.860

Allana Foster: Yeah.

152

00:20:50.860 --> 00:20:52.980

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Vision if we would just stop.

153

00:20:53.170 --> 00:21:18.739

Allana Foster: Now, here's another thing to that, though. Okay, so in the what? 19 7, no, what was it? 1997 the wolves came into. They brought. No, it was 1995, the the gray wolves were reintroduced into Yellowstone because the wolves were eradicated, you know, from the Park, and basically almost North America, and they were absent for like 70 years.

154

00:21:18.860 --> 00:21:31.129

Allana Foster: So they brought them back, and the park was suffering. There were things happening in the park, because they're the not all. So when the wolves were taken out, so were the mountain lions and the bears.

155

00:21:31.300 --> 00:21:34.200

Allana Foster: and and they

156

00:21:34.640 --> 00:21:41.390

Allana Foster: and they all, you know, coexist together. It's an ecosystem of balance. And so you've got predators, and you've got, you know.

157

00:21:41.390 --> 00:21:52.980

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And the deer and rabbits and squirrels and the everything else. When you remove one thing, then another thing is gonna proliferate, and it's gonna have problems because.

158

00:21:52.980 --> 00:21:53.410

Allana Foster: Hi.

159

00:21:53.410 --> 00:22:07.679

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Then, you know, some of these animals are supported by, you know the grass and the ground, or the flowers, or whatever the flora and fauna is, and when that starts getting out of balance, then

160

00:22:08.140 --> 00:22:19.270

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: then trees start dying, and then there's big fires, and I mean, all of this stuff is interconnected, and we think, oh, no, big deal. We'll just rip out the things that are gonna hurt us.

161

00:22:19.270 --> 00:22:19.940

Allana Foster: That's right.

162

00:22:19.940 --> 00:22:22.100

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: We don't belong there. In the 1st place.

163

00:22:22.100 --> 00:22:22.490

Allana Foster: So.

164

00:22:22.490 --> 00:22:23.520

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: No just.

165

00:22:23.720 --> 00:22:27.080

Allana Foster: Yeah, so so in California.

166

00:22:28.250 --> 00:22:33.140

Allana Foster: We did not reintroduce the wolves to California. The wolves found their way here

167

00:22:33.280 --> 00:22:58.329

Allana Foster: because wolves travel and they are territorial, so they find their territory. So they came in, I believe, through Oregon, and then came down. And so right now there's wolves in a lot of the States. So I appreciate that. You know that they have. You know. The the reintroduction to Yellowstone afforded the gray wolves to be able to come back to North America.

168

00:22:58.880 --> 00:23:21.300

Allana Foster: So the other thing that's happening right now to currently is the reintroduction of wolves gray wolves to Canada. I'm sorry, Colorado. They're Canadian wolves that have been brought down. So the unfortunate part about that is that these wolves were taken from one ecosystem and one land to another land, and they're trying to find their way back.

169

00:23:22.130 --> 00:23:32.509

Allana Foster: So what's happening is they're getting they're starting to move from where they were reintroduced trying to find their way back up North. And so they're they're dying. They're being shot. They're.

170

00:23:32.870 --> 00:23:41.429

Allana Foster: you know, they're conf. They're in a confusion state right now, which I'm you know. Maybe the Yellowstone wolves did, too, but the Yellowstone wolves had all those acres of the park.

171

00:23:42.160 --> 00:23:55.830

Allana Foster: and they don't see a line. They don't know the boundaries right? We know this. They don't see it. So as soon as they cross, because humans know the boundary, as soon as they cross that line they're free game, basically they they shoot them. They do whatever.

172

00:23:56.140 --> 00:23:58.989

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: That's why it was so interesting to me to see the Wolf.

173

00:23:59.800 --> 00:24:02.309

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I live. Preston, Idaho is really

174

00:24:02.360 --> 00:24:32.349

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: close to the Utah border, down on at the very. It's by Logan. And so I saw the the Wolf really near to Preston. It was in Dayton, but it's just like 10 miles away. So and I talked to the Extension, the University Extension Office about it. Because I I know what I saw. And they're like, yeah, that's really interesting. They are starting to migrate down into this area, too, which is

175

00:24:32.620 --> 00:24:38.070

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: personally, I think it's really cool. But you know there's others that don't.

176

00:24:38.360 --> 00:24:46.149

Allana Foster: Well, I think the thing that you know also affects this and the ones that don't is because we've also been taught about the big, bad wolf.

177

00:24:46.330 --> 00:24:59.130

Allana Foster: and we've been taught that, you know wolves are to be feared, and you know, many, many years ago, before we were here before the Europeans were here, I should say, that

178

00:24:59.270 --> 00:25:09.129

Allana Foster: the wolves dominated this continent and are all over the world. There's wolves all over the world, and

179

00:25:09.650 --> 00:25:14.349

Allana Foster: you know, by our fearing them because of them coming in. And you know.

180

00:25:14.490 --> 00:25:18.930

Allana Foster: hunting our cattle. And you know, sheep. And and

181

00:25:19.550 --> 00:25:26.640

Allana Foster: you know the idea that they go after humans just like the coyotes here.

182

00:25:26.750 --> 00:25:29.740

Allana Foster: like, I just read something this morning about a woman who was

183

00:25:30.240 --> 00:25:36.750

Allana Foster: out running with her dog last night, and in an area where there are known to be coyotes.

184

00:25:37.060 --> 00:25:41.610

Allana Foster: and she had her dog. She let her. Well, anyway.

185

00:25:42.829 --> 00:25:48.270

Allana Foster: No. I lost my train of thought because it went into that story. But the idea that

186

00:25:50.330 --> 00:25:53.519

Allana Foster: oh, my gosh! I just totally lost my train of thought. With that

187

00:25:53.520 --> 00:25:57.559

Allana Foster: that happens you were talking about animals and and.

188

00:25:58.990 --> 00:26:02.490

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Reintroducing them to California, and that they

189

00:26:03.670 --> 00:26:09.450

Allana Foster: Oh, the big, bad wolf. Yeah. Oh, yeah. And so the idea that they're attacking humans, right? So

190

00:26:09.570 --> 00:26:34.240

Allana Foster: you know, we've had a few things happen here in this area where there's been children that have been attacked by a coyote. Now I can see that I can see why that happens, because they're small. And the you know, coyote doesn't know. You know. I mean, it's it's a small, it's a small animal, right? It's it's small. They can take it. And as far as humans you know, if you if you

191

00:26:35.060 --> 00:26:43.139

Allana Foster: do some research, there's not a lot of wolves that have actually attacked and killed humans.

192

00:26:43.590 --> 00:26:48.749

Allana Foster: It's it's not standard operation for them.

193

00:26:48.990 --> 00:26:52.849

Allana Foster: They have a they have a fear of us. Yeah.

194

00:26:53.310 --> 00:27:05.480

Allana Foster: And they have a natural fear of us which most animals. Actually, do you know, you're you're gonna you would get attacked by and killed by a mountain lion before you would a a wolf

195

00:27:05.750 --> 00:27:15.919

Allana Foster: and the coyotes. That's the other misconception. That's where I was going with that story was, you know, the idea of I don't want to be attacked, so I let my dog off the leash.

196

00:27:16.030 --> 00:27:22.480

Allana Foster: Big dog, you know. This is what this story was relayed to, and

197

00:27:22.910 --> 00:27:31.390

Allana Foster: you know, so that the coyotes would go away from her and not attack her. Just attack her dog. You know that the dog stood a better chance of fighting off coyotes.

198

00:27:31.860 --> 00:27:35.569

Allana Foster: so you know my thoughts go to.

199

00:27:35.750 --> 00:27:42.150

Allana Foster: Well, she was in danger because she had her dog, you know. Maybe

200

00:27:42.340 --> 00:27:47.809

Allana Foster: maybe by chance, if she was walking by herself and all the coyotes there they may have.

201

00:27:47.970 --> 00:27:53.480

Allana Foster: you know, that may have been their behavior, but it's not really their behavior.

202

00:27:53.980 --> 00:27:55.450

Allana Foster: So I think.

203

00:27:55.450 --> 00:27:59.100

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Are you out there walking by yourself, anyway? Well, that's.

204

00:27:59.100 --> 00:28:00.749

Allana Foster: We were, you know, talking about? Yeah.

205

00:28:00.750 --> 00:28:01.950

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Hello!

206

00:28:01.950 --> 00:28:12.860

Allana Foster: Yeah, well, and that's what you know. People chime in. They're like, well, you shouldn't be walking, you know. I'm glad you're you're okay and your dog's okay. But you know you shouldn't really be doing that. But there's is the entitlement.

207

00:28:12.980 --> 00:28:16.570

Allana Foster: And I'm not saying this person, you know. I don't know this person, you know, but the.

208

00:28:16.570 --> 00:28:16.970

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: That's right.

209

00:28:16.970 --> 00:28:22.749

Allana Foster: About the story and that if we lived in.

210

00:28:23.320 --> 00:28:38.449

Allana Foster: you know country like, let's say you and you've got you know you got mountain lion out there. You're probably not going to be walking your little dog at 10 o'clock at night in the dark, you know, you know, or at dusk or dawn, because that's when they generally are out.

211

00:28:38.630 --> 00:28:54.390

Allana Foster: and a lot of people don't see mountain lions because they're cats. They're hiding. They're stalking, not like a wolf, you know, or a coyote. They're they're out. They're not hiding from us. They're doing their thing, and there they are.

212

00:28:54.600 --> 00:28:55.679

Allana Foster: So

213

00:28:57.590 --> 00:29:04.620

Allana Foster: So you know, we're in for a lot of you know, different.

214

00:29:05.200 --> 00:29:10.809

Allana Foster: Well, I'm hoping that you know, we can learn

215

00:29:11.030 --> 00:29:16.329

Allana Foster: that it's okay to have these animals living amongst us.

216

00:29:16.680 --> 00:29:24.660

Allana Foster: I know that it gets a little scary when they start to encroach. That's where it starts to freak people out is when they start to encroach into our.

217

00:29:24.920 --> 00:29:33.300

Allana Foster: you know, everyday lives to makes it makes us uncomfortable. Then we have to lock up our pets, and we can't go out after dark, you know, but

218

00:29:33.590 --> 00:29:35.750

Allana Foster: you know, I I just don't.

219

00:29:38.360 --> 00:29:45.719

Allana Foster: I feel like we need. If we're going to have more respect for animals, then we just need to know that we live amongst them.

220

00:29:46.720 --> 00:29:54.219

Allana Foster: They don't live amongst us, although you know it's a Co. It's a Co. Thing, but they're everywhere.

221

00:29:54.390 --> 00:30:09.420

Allana Foster: We just have to learn that if I've got more coyotes in this area that I'm not going to take my dog out for a walk at 10 o'clock at night and have him on a big, long leash. So he's, you know, 8 feet ahead of me, you know, coming around a corner which I see all the time here.

222

00:30:09.420 --> 00:30:24.839

Allana Foster: you know. So it's just being a little smarter and having respect for you know where you live and the animals around you. And that's a that's a hard one I mean. I have to close my eyes sometimes, you know, and and keep my mouth shut. You know about certain behaviors, because, to be honest.

223

00:30:26.310 --> 00:30:37.290

Allana Foster: I'm not going to get an argument with somebody about something, you know, I'll have a conversation. And then, do you know, podcasts and talk about it and try to have a platform about it. But

224

00:30:37.550 --> 00:30:41.090

Allana Foster: if somebody wants to feed the squirrels, who am I to say

225

00:30:41.650 --> 00:30:52.250

Allana Foster: I can't be the forest Ranger, you know. I might mention something, but I'm not going to get an argument with somebody about it, you know, or yell at somebody that they're doing that. So

226

00:30:52.880 --> 00:30:53.750

Allana Foster: you know.

227

00:30:54.160 --> 00:30:56.639

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Find it interesting, too, that people will

228

00:30:57.010 --> 00:31:07.369

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: be afraid of wolves, then I'm sure this has to do with stories, too, but they look at bears as though there's this cuddly thing.

229

00:31:07.670 --> 00:31:12.489

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: You're far more likely to get injured by a bear than you are ever get injured by a wolf.

230

00:31:13.360 --> 00:31:39.980

Allana Foster: Yes, yes, absolutely. And and if you're let's say you're a hiker, you know you're a backpacker, or you know, you're going to be camping in an area where there's bears. You live in an area where there's bears. There's precautions that you take, because, you know they're there. It's what we've been talking about all along. You know there's precautions that you take, because you know this animal is here, and if you don't take the precautions, then you're going to pay a hefty price.

231

00:31:40.460 --> 00:31:41.729

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: That might be your life.

232

00:31:41.730 --> 00:31:47.549

Allana Foster: It might be your life right, or sacrificing your you know your car or your

233

00:31:47.840 --> 00:31:50.909

Allana Foster: you know your house, or what whatever it is

234

00:31:52.720 --> 00:31:59.769

Allana Foster: So so then go ahead. You go.

235

00:31:59.770 --> 00:32:07.640

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: All the animals are here for a purpose. They they serve a purpose in the cycle of

236

00:32:07.770 --> 00:32:10.400

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: the whole ecology of

237

00:32:10.600 --> 00:32:34.550

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: this realm that we live in. When you remove something, then something else is going to. It's going to have an effect on something else, and it's probably not going to be the effect that we immediately see, because everything is chain linked together, and when you you pull one of the chains out, then all the way down the line.

238

00:32:35.750 --> 00:32:37.360

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Things are impacted.

239

00:32:37.850 --> 00:32:38.690

Allana Foster: That's right.

240

00:32:39.190 --> 00:32:48.929

Allana Foster: Well, it's like, you know, even with trees, you know. And and they just tore down a building here that had been here for, you know, many, many years, and

241

00:32:49.200 --> 00:32:55.920

Allana Foster: along with the building and the property, they tore down huge old eucalyptus trees.

242

00:32:56.520 --> 00:33:03.129

Allana Foster: And so you imagine the ecosystem within those trees, and now they're gone.

243

00:33:03.270 --> 00:33:04.410

Allana Foster: So those.

244

00:33:04.410 --> 00:33:06.770

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Tree is bigger below than it is.

245

00:33:07.376 --> 00:33:08.589

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: That's right.

246

00:33:08.710 --> 00:33:15.299

Allana Foster: That we were just talking about that yesterday. Yeah, with the I have some plants and pots that need to be re replanted.

247

00:33:16.258 --> 00:33:20.870

Allana Foster: So you know. I have a

248

00:33:21.520 --> 00:33:25.780

Allana Foster: there's a street circle here across from my house

249

00:33:25.940 --> 00:33:44.980

Allana Foster: that has some huge trees, and it's so cool because there's a whole system of animals. You know, squirrels and birds that live in those trees. We have a lot of crows around here, and I was walking the other day walking, my dog, and

250

00:33:46.057 --> 00:33:56.939

Allana Foster: lately, you know, I'll go through periods of time where I don't see any feathers, you know, and it could be seasonal, you know, for the for the birds. But then, all of a sudden, there's right in my path. There will be feathers.

251

00:33:57.080 --> 00:34:03.409

Allana Foster: So lately I've been lots of crows, and also little gifts, trinkets

252

00:34:03.620 --> 00:34:12.369

Allana Foster: and and so I've been collecting the feathers because there's a i have a there's a spiritual connection that I feel with these animals, and I feel like it's it's a gift.

253

00:34:12.810 --> 00:34:13.864

Allana Foster: So

254

00:34:16.060 --> 00:34:23.280

Allana Foster: I hadn't seen owls around in a while, and for a while we were seeing them all the time.

255

00:34:23.639 --> 00:34:35.230

Allana Foster: and so I had been thinking about them. So I'm walking. And I noticed that there's something standing straight up in the yard in across the street. So

256

00:34:35.420 --> 00:34:41.619

Allana Foster: so I'm looking at going. What is that? So when I got closer, it was this beautiful feather beautiful.

257

00:34:41.949 --> 00:35:02.411

Allana Foster: And it was basically it was an owl feather. I 1st I thought it was a hawk feather, but it was one of the most beautiful feathers that I've seen in a long time that I've been. It's been shown up, but I love it. It was just standing straight up, you know. It's like, Hello, you know, here I am. So I went and picked it up, and

258

00:35:03.130 --> 00:35:05.963

Allana Foster: came home identified it and

259

00:35:07.300 --> 00:35:15.900

Allana Foster: So I'm so this was maybe last week. So last night or night before. I'm walking my dog again, and it was getting to be dusk.

260

00:35:16.180 --> 00:35:37.510

Allana Foster: and I'm hearing all the birds, you know. They're they're, you know, singing to the to the you know, sun going down right, and I would start thinking, it's like, you know, I haven't seen really seen an owl in a while. I used to see him on. We have some lines in the back, and they'd be up there, and I have a channel that starts behind my house and goes all the way out to the ocean.

261

00:35:37.700 --> 00:35:44.560

Allana Foster: And so we get a lot of wildlife here. But I was like, Wow, you know. Wonder where I just haven't seen owls in a while.

262

00:35:46.480 --> 00:35:49.310

Allana Foster: And so I went for my little walk, and as I

263

00:35:49.480 --> 00:35:54.229

Allana Foster: go to my house and I'm crossing the street an owl flew right over us.

264

00:35:54.870 --> 00:35:59.260

Allana Foster: heading in the same direction that I was walking, and I was just

265

00:35:59.390 --> 00:36:02.359

Allana Foster: in awe, and I love that

266

00:36:02.580 --> 00:36:05.640

Allana Foster: so that to me feels part of that

267

00:36:07.310 --> 00:36:23.709

Allana Foster: collective consciousness and spirituality that we share with all sentient beings. You know it's you can call whatever you want. If you're a non believer in that, you would call it. Oh, it's coincidence, you know, whatever. But I

268

00:36:24.425 --> 00:36:25.370

Allana Foster: harder than that.

269

00:36:25.370 --> 00:36:30.129

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Too many experiences. The last the last one that I had was

270

00:36:30.270 --> 00:36:40.189

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: we had some crows that there were 3 of them. One of them was injured, and I'm pretty sure it was the female. She was up on our porch and

271

00:36:40.690 --> 00:36:54.449

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I was having a conversation with her, and she moved to the backyard last summer, and then she healed, and they flew away for the winter. But the spring the 3 of them came back, and they were sitting in the tree talking to me.

272

00:36:54.490 --> 00:37:17.050

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: They've they've gone somewhere else, but I know that they came back just to say, Hey, she's well, and she's up in the tree. I've had an experience with a hawk and bald eagles, and I just like so many animals that are just like they show up at times in our lives when we we need a message from them, and

273

00:37:17.380 --> 00:37:20.899

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: they don't have to like. Listen for the message.

274

00:37:20.900 --> 00:37:30.059

Allana Foster: Yeah, you listen. You pay attention, you observe, you know. Be an observer. You know it's all around us all the time.

275

00:37:30.582 --> 00:37:36.870

Allana Foster: So you know, they also okay. So you know, we're talking about physical animals. There's also.

276

00:37:37.020 --> 00:37:42.350

Allana Foster: you know. Let's say you have a dream like, last night I had a bear in my dream. There was a bear in my dream.

277

00:37:42.580 --> 00:37:58.244

Allana Foster: and so I haven't dreamt of bear in a long time. So you know, bears in introspection. And you know the North, you know, going in the cave. Birthing right. All those things that bear

278

00:37:58.820 --> 00:38:04.450

Allana Foster: it represents or or is, you know. So then you take that symbolism.

279

00:38:05.365 --> 00:38:11.399

Allana Foster: Let's, it's it's more than symbolism. It's you know who the bear is right, who what is bear?

280

00:38:11.780 --> 00:38:27.339

Allana Foster: And then, because it became in a dream. I have to look at the symbols in the dream, and how it appeared to me. But it, you know, if you take the time to pay attention to those things and then apply it to your life. You know what's happening right now that

281

00:38:27.490 --> 00:38:32.610

Allana Foster: I can, you know, get the lessons from bear. What is Bear trying to tell me.

282

00:38:32.750 --> 00:38:41.959

Allana Foster: and then let's say, and as I'm sitting here right now right in front of me, I've got Smokey the bear, little stuffed, Smokey the bear, and I also have a card that has a bear on it.

283

00:38:42.240 --> 00:38:50.849

Allana Foster: and and I've always loved bears, you know, bears mean a lot to me as as well as wolves and buffalo. I just those are my animals

284

00:38:51.050 --> 00:38:52.025

Allana Foster: and

285

00:38:53.400 --> 00:39:17.020

Allana Foster: And so let's say that I have the dream of the bear, and then I'm out in the day, and I see a sticker on the back of a car that's a bear, or there'd be a license plate that says Bear, or you know whatever. And you all of a sudden you've got all this bear stuff going on. Well, your brain had, you know, sees it. Maybe it wasn't. Maybe it's always been there. Maybe you've maybe that, you know it's always been there. But today, for some reason

286

00:39:17.380 --> 00:39:18.530

Allana Foster: Bear

287

00:39:18.740 --> 00:39:31.475

Allana Foster: is showing up. And you're paying attention. That's basically what you know. What we're talking about is open up your eyes to the possibility that animals are all around us, and they there's they're

288

00:39:32.090 --> 00:39:33.750

Allana Foster: their medicine.

289

00:39:33.990 --> 00:39:37.980

Allana Foster: Their gifts are here to help us.

290

00:39:38.100 --> 00:39:41.569

Allana Foster: Animals were here before us.

291

00:39:41.700 --> 00:39:50.989

Allana Foster: We're basically the last creation on the planet. In the creation stories we are. We were made last.

292

00:39:51.180 --> 00:39:58.230

Allana Foster: And so the animals want us to succeed. They want us to be okay. But we're like little children.

293

00:39:58.510 --> 00:39:59.910

Allana Foster: We're like little children.

294

00:40:00.060 --> 00:40:06.479

Allana Foster: We haven't really grown up in our sentience on the planet. That's why we're destroyers.

295

00:40:06.920 --> 00:40:10.899

Allana Foster: because we haven't learned to not be destroyers.

296

00:40:11.250 --> 00:40:33.783

Allana Foster: So. And when I say we, I'm talking about again, the collective of humans, right? So individually, people learn lessons. And of course, you know our souls are on different levels, you know. If you believe that, you know, some people say, Oh, she's an old soul, or she's a young soul, you know. So we're all here to learn lessons on the planet. Are

297

00:40:34.280 --> 00:40:38.369

Allana Foster: soul experience in a human body, and I truly believe that

298

00:40:39.115 --> 00:40:45.069

Allana Foster: but the animals, you know it's like when I say I dreamt of bear.

299

00:40:46.410 --> 00:40:52.370

Allana Foster: you know. Bear energy. Bear as a you know.

300

00:40:53.184 --> 00:41:00.669

Allana Foster: medicine of bear. What does bear teach not the bear a bear, but bear.

301

00:41:01.425 --> 00:41:06.309

Allana Foster: So it's that way with, you know all animals, wolves. What do wolves teach us?

302

00:41:06.682 --> 00:41:07.799

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: There's spirit! Animals.

303

00:41:07.800 --> 00:41:31.670

Allana Foster: Yes, that's right. So whether they're, you know, live a live encounter or a dream, or some other symbolism that these animals come to you, you pay attention, and I would say, most people have that awareness, you know. I mean, you could have a bird fly right in front of your face, you know. Of course, you're going to pay attention to that bird, you know, or almost you know.

304

00:41:32.370 --> 00:41:45.429

Allana Foster: however, that works. But if you want to take it farther. And you know, what is this? Because I think there's times, too, where maybe you might just see a bird, and you go. Oh, it's so beautiful, you know, whatever. But then something might happen that feels

305

00:41:45.690 --> 00:41:50.620

Allana Foster: unusual, right? That it's a little bit more than just the sighting of the animal.

306

00:41:51.421 --> 00:42:05.139

Allana Foster: And it takes your breath away, or causes you to to pause, or whatever it is. I think that's kind of the when we're talking about spirit animals or lessons of animals. You know. Take the time to.

307

00:42:05.650 --> 00:42:10.039

Allana Foster: you know. Just investigate what that might mean for you, and how the how they can help you.

308

00:42:11.110 --> 00:42:20.569

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: So, Ellen, do you help people with interpreting dreams and looking at what animals are trying to communicate to them? Is that

309

00:42:21.650 --> 00:42:22.610

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: coaching practice.

310

00:42:22.610 --> 00:42:25.290

Allana Foster: Yes, I do as well as

311

00:42:25.400 --> 00:42:32.769

Allana Foster: you know. So I'm a Reiki master teacher. Also an animal communicator. So intuitive animal communication.

312

00:42:33.560 --> 00:42:42.380

Allana Foster: Also, you know, just trees, you know, connecting ourselves, connecting with ourselves with nature

313

00:42:42.590 --> 00:42:47.239

Allana Foster: and the healing qualities that you know we have

314

00:42:48.630 --> 00:42:51.740

Allana Foster: within ourselves. You know the qualities that are innate.

315

00:42:54.400 --> 00:43:03.420

Allana Foster: You know, senses that we are part of nature, you know we are all interconnected and

316

00:43:04.510 --> 00:43:10.300

Allana Foster: helping people to reconnect and remember their connection.

317

00:43:10.880 --> 00:43:14.670

Allana Foster: That's my that brings me great joy.

318

00:43:15.070 --> 00:43:21.880

Allana Foster: helping helping people heal their imbalances, their traumas.

319

00:43:22.570 --> 00:43:30.639

Allana Foster: You know. Bring yourself back to balance and understanding that, you know, even if you live.

320

00:43:31.330 --> 00:43:38.319

Allana Foster: you know where I live which we think there shouldn't be. You know, we're just basically sometimes not connected to nature.

321

00:43:38.874 --> 00:43:46.489

Allana Foster: That it's all around us, no matter what you know, no matter where we live. There's birds, you know, migratory birds, there's, you know, bugs.

322

00:43:46.780 --> 00:43:56.619

Allana Foster: you know. I went into my workspace the other night, and it was. It was dark, and I turned on the lights, and there was a very large spider on my wall.

323

00:43:57.240 --> 00:44:01.179

Allana Foster: And I was like, dude, you know, like

324

00:44:01.780 --> 00:44:07.900

Allana Foster: I. And then it it crawled right behind a picture that I have. And I'm like, okay.

325

00:44:08.720 --> 00:44:17.430

Allana Foster: okay, just don't come out when I have a client here, you know. Just just go ahead and hide.

326

00:44:17.560 --> 00:44:25.720

Allana Foster: And and that's exactly what happened. So I I'm not going to go hunter down, I said. Dude. But you know

327

00:44:25.950 --> 00:44:38.969

Allana Foster: her. I'm not gonna hunt her down. Spiders are actually very spiritual animals and you know we're all. All animals are equally

328

00:44:40.710 --> 00:44:44.552

Allana Foster: you know, have equal medicine, right? Equal?

329

00:44:46.050 --> 00:44:48.570

Allana Foster: Just like every one of us. We're all equal.

330

00:44:49.332 --> 00:44:59.279

Allana Foster: There's not one that's greater than another, you know. So a little roly-poly bug. Its power is just as powerful as that wolf, or that bear

331

00:44:59.911 --> 00:45:02.930

Allana Foster: in the in what they have to offer the planet.

332

00:45:04.270 --> 00:45:10.290

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Exactly so. Do you help people one on one? Or is it kind of in groups, is it? How does how does your coaching.

333

00:45:10.765 --> 00:45:13.600

Allana Foster: Right now I do one on one

334

00:45:14.209 --> 00:45:22.990

Allana Foster: I have taught classes in the past, and and I have conducted fire ceremonies and invited people into that

335

00:45:24.480 --> 00:45:25.620

Allana Foster: But

336

00:45:25.960 --> 00:45:35.279

Allana Foster: I'm not doing that so much right now. I know we're after Covid, but it covid kind of shut down things like that kind of change. A lot of things.

337

00:45:36.142 --> 00:45:42.457

Allana Foster: but I definitely do one on one and can work with anybody all over the world, you know.

338

00:45:43.530 --> 00:45:44.540

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Beauty of zoom.

339

00:45:45.260 --> 00:45:58.870

Allana Foster: Yeah, healing. Can happen distance just like prayer. You know, it's very powerful. You. So whether we are on, you know, doing a distance healing session or

340

00:45:59.551 --> 00:46:12.399

Allana Foster: in person. You know, they're both both very powerful. So yeah, I definitely work with people on live stream and so you can go to my website, intuitive heart studio.

341

00:46:13.053 --> 00:46:23.525

Allana Foster: I have information there in my blog about things that we talked about today. If you want to learn more about wolves. I've got a whole resource.

342

00:46:24.300 --> 00:46:28.779

Allana Foster: blog! That will give you some information to be able to learn a little bit more about wolves

343

00:46:28.910 --> 00:46:30.040

Allana Foster: and

344

00:46:32.451 --> 00:46:38.079

Allana Foster: I have a schedule button, so you can click on that, and you can look at everything that I offer

345

00:46:38.580 --> 00:46:40.480

Allana Foster: and book an appointment there.

346

00:46:40.710 --> 00:46:44.930

Allana Foster: So that's that's the best way to work with me.

347

00:46:45.920 --> 00:46:47.420

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Perfect, perfect.

348

00:46:47.630 --> 00:46:50.790

Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Thank you so much for joining us today, Alena.

349

00:46:51.560 --> 00:46:53.690

Allana Foster: Thank you, Jill. It's been a pleasure.

350
