Longwillow : Tending to the life of the soul

One Cat's Story

  as told by his human

I was amazed to hear that my feline friend, Ketzel (a big affectionate, orange male tabby) told my animal communicator that he wanted to work with Longwillow.

Not that he had met her before but he seemed to sense her energy and healing powers through my communicator. I was all for it, after all, we had been on a long healing journey together, the Ketzel and I.

Ketzel the CAtHis issues were FEAR, even though nothing in his life with me could have accounted for the magnitude of his problem. His fear would send him scurrying for cover at an unfamiliar sound, someone at the door, something he didn’t recognize and he would stay hidden for 10-12 hours at a time, missing meals even.

When Longwillow arrived, we went into my bedroom where the Ketzel was waiting. He eyed her warily but he did not bolt (that got my attention!). What followed was magical and sacred. Namely, Longwillow unpacked her large collection of flower essences with such love and reverence that I knew we were in for something special.

The process included her dousing for the combination of essences that were needed to restore balance and my instruction was to hold them in contact with Ketzel until I “felt completion.” I thought to myself, “yeah, right… I’m just not tuned in enough to know that.”

But to my utter surprise, I at first felt a state I can only describe as disorganized, which lasted for several minutes, and then there was a sense of peace, followed by a sense of being done. Ketzel was completely still during this process until the end, and then he yawned and did cat things. This process was repeated several times, including one round that was just for me. Each time, I “knew” when I/we were “done.”

Ultimately, Longwillow selected about 4 flower essences, which she mixed up like a true alchemist, and this was to be the remedy Ketzel and I were to be with for the next 7 days. My instructions were to once-a-day, simply hold the remedy in contact with him until the feeling of completion occurred.

Now the Ketzel usually sleeps with me, but not always, yet for the next 7 days he only missed one night. Our ritual for the week was he would come up by my pillow and we would commune with the remedy for about 10 minutes and it was clear each time when we were done. The Ketzel never moved a muscle until we were done.

After a week, Ketzel’s behavior had changed noticeably! He stopped running away at every noise, he never disappeared for longer than his usual daytime nap and he seemed so much calmer and more present. It was so profound I never called Longwillow to come back for a follow-up, although I fully expected I would have to do so.

This was an amazing and profound experience for both the Ketzel and me so, "Do I highly recommend Longwillow??" You bet I do!!
