Workshop Participants
Hear what the participants in Carol's workshops have
to say about their experience.

When I
first called Carol for a conversation with my dogs last
spring, I had no idea that within a few months I would
be hosting one of her weekend workshops in my home!
On
that first call I asked if she ever came to our area of
the country. She replied that all she needed was a
sponsor/host to both get the word out locally and find a
location where the workshops could be held. I thought,
“I can do that.” And so it began.
Twenty people attended our two-day workshop in
September. It was wonderful to meet so many others who
also had an interest in communicating with their
four-legged family members (and others). Best of all
was the discovery that each of us really had an ability
to do that!
I
found Carol to be a master teacher. When someone would
say, “I just didn’t get anything”, she would not move
on, but instead approach it from a different angle,
never letting the person feel that s/he was unable to do
this. “If the animal were sitting in your lap”, she
might propose, “and he leaned over to your ear, what
would he whisper into it?”
My
two Labradors, Kofi and Chief, were willing participants
who attended the gathering in person, for which both
they and I were excited and grateful. One woman, who at
first felt she just wasn’t getting anything, was shocked
to discover that she had pinpointed the exact difficulty
Kofi had as a result of an accident he had been in
before he came to live with me. (This was not anything
we had mentioned to the group previously.) It was also
wonderful to see other insights that came from the group
where two or three people received the same
information. (In fact, as a result of the participants’
communications with Kofi, I have taken him to a
chiropractor. Before the workshop, I had had no idea he
was experiencing neck pain that caused him headaches.)
By
the end of the weekend, I was delighted to discover so
many of the attendees desired to take animal
communication to the next step by attending Carol’s
four-part training (myself included)! I so look forward
to more workshops and lessons from Carol on uncovering
this gift of being able to talk with my loved ones!

Although
I had accepted the premise of "animal communication", I
believed it was something only the "gifted" could
access. And while there are gifted animal communicators
in the world, Carol being one of them, I discovered
during a two-day HeartTalk Workshop that everyone
can learn to speak to, and more importantly, listen to
the animals
Carol's teaching method
is positive and encouraging. In a safe and comfortable
environment, "regular people" were taught to relax and
open to specific and verifiable information. We asked
questions and received the answers from animals we had
never met. She expertly guided us in removing blocks to
our information flow through "tips" she has used over
the years. Everyone succeeded!
Compassion and respect
for all animals adds another dimension to her approach,
truly making it Heart Talk. While it is magical in one
sense, Carol taught us that we are simply using another
language. One that we had not given credibility to
before. I admire Carol's precision in all her
communication, both with humans and animals. This
intelligent and positive model sets a standard for all
aspiring interspecies communicators, benefiting each
group in the highest way.
My hours spent in the
workshop are ones that I treasure and hope to expand
upon. What I learned is intangible, yet very real. I
actually learned to communicate with the animals!

I will
never be able to thank you enough for coming to
Charlotte. My life has changed! Your warmth and
compassion are so inviting. You are truly a genuine
spirit. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and
encouragement. At one point, I remember you sharing
about when you were starting out and you said that if
you could communicate with animals for your life's work
you would be happy beyond belief. I feel the same way. I
really do feel like this is my path - to continue to
study with you. All my experiences up until now have led
me to this place and you. You are a remarkable woman.
Thanks,

When I
read Carol's book, I knew her training would be
invaluable to me in working with my own dogs, cats and
horses. Carol's HeartTalk training program
allowed me to easily recognize and quickly learn to use
my telepathic skills as a professional animal
communicator, more so than with other classes I had
attended taught by other communicators.
The skills I have learned from Carol are essential in my
store "The Animal Connection," which is a holistic store
for dogs, cats and horses. When people come in and ask
me what would be a good food or treat for their animal
it's great to be able to truthfully say, "well, let's
ask your dog and see!" The animals give me information
not only about taste, but also how the food makes them
feel physically. When selecting homeopathic remedies,
flower essences or essential oils, the animal gives me
information so that I am better able to decide what they
need, and they're always right on!
Carol's body balancing class awakened me to the power of
energy healing. Being able to intuitively work with an
animal's energy field is essential in working with those
who are experiencing physical, emotional or spiritual
imbalances. I would highly recommend that all animal
professionals and volunteers take this class - you will
be amazed by what can be accomplished with your animal
friends through this workshop.

I have
found my animals more responsive & attentive since being
in Carol's Workshop, my horse kept looking me in the
eye, more interested in being with me. Also when riding
my horse I was very careful not to have negative
thoughts about how she would behave when out riding &
yes she behaved really well!! which is not always the
case.
I
thought Carol's Workshop was very constructive and she
was never at a loss for an answer to questions. A very
pleasant lady & so easy to approach. Her knowledge on
her subject was amazing. All told an excellent weekend,
I only hope I can communicate as well as her in time.

I attended the Introductory
and Advanced communication workshops.
I felt very at home
throughout both workshops. I was aware of Carol’s
immense compassion, patience and understanding towards
each individual student. This made me feel safe and
relaxed; enabling me to focus fully on the exercises.
Carol’s encouragement and
enthusiasm stay with me still. Without this new
confidence I would not have accepted the challenge of
listening to Frankie, a lost cat. My experience with
Frankie has been so poignant for both myself and for
him.
I have learned that if I
limit myself at all, I limit the animals. And that
there need not be fleeting moments of understanding
between myself and any creature, instead every moment
can be full of love and understanding-it
is just
up to me! Thank
you Carol for creating such
a lovely learning environment and opportunity.

I
attended the Introductory and Advanced
Communication
Workshops.
I
am an Equine Healer, but do
work with other animals when required. Over the years,
I have developed my channels on communication through
spiritual healing. This has lead me to this specific
area of expertise.
I
feel that attending Carol's workshop has helped
me to develop new skills, as I feel my channel of
communication with the animals has greatly improved and
I am more aware of their requirements. My communication
is now on a very deep emotional level. The animals will
convey to me what they are feeling. They will tell me
of any physical pain they might have, or give me
pictures or other descriptions of something they require
from their career. Animals also tell me what they like
and what they dislike.
I
felt that everything Carol said came from the heart with
warmth and sincerity. She is an excellent teacher and
communicator and helps you realize your own true
potential. Thank you Carol!

Hicks Dobbs
I
attended the Body Balancing workshop in March 2004.
I am in Penelope Smith's apprentice program and had just
finished teaching a Basic Workshop February 2004. I felt
that there was something missing from my consultations
and when I saw that Carol was going to be teaching her
Body Balancing workshop near my home, I just had to
attend. In my consultations, I did not feel totally
comfortable when physical issues came up. I am a Reiki
Master and have studied Bioenergy with Mietek Wirkus. I
was also familiar with Bach Flowers, homeopathy,
acupuncture and other complimentary medicine but I did
not feel confident using these tools with animals.
Carol teaches many techniques during the Body Balancing
workshop. She said that each technique is a tool that we
can put in our "tool box". She made sure that each one
of us understood how to do the technique before
practicing on our horses. She also was right there with
us if we were not sure what to do. I loved working with
one other person on the same horse for the duration of
the workshop. This allowed us not only to be able to
practice each technique, but to observe the horse as it
changed during the three days that we worked with them.
My partner and I were able to witness
first hand how these techniques relaxed and healed the
horse. We were able to see energy blocks become
un-blocked, see the animals totally relax and begin the
healing process. My workshop partner and I witnessed
dramatic progress in the horse that we had the privilege
to work with, right before our eyes.
I highly recommend this workshop to anyone that plans to
become an animal communicator. The workshop is valuable
for anyone that wants to help their own animal
companions along with any other animal friends in their
life.

I am lucky enough to spend
the better part of my day with animals. I train horses
for a living and have always found a way to surround
myself with many different animals on our farm. I have
thought about animal communication for many years and
vowed that if any classes became available to me I would
go. Then as an answer to a prayer, Carol scheduled a
class in my city. I took her two-day animal
communication class. Her teaching ability is astounding
and I walked away knowing you can talk to animals.
While we all might be “able” to communicate with
animals, it takes a special person to teach us this
ability. All of us learn differently and the true
teacher is able to reach us all. Some of us learn
through visualization, some need a comparison; others
need to “feel” it, some need to sense it and others need
to remove their own blocks of issues first. Carol has
the unique ability to reach each person at the level in
which they learn best. There is never any pressure, just
the constant affirmation that it will happen for you
too. Such encouragement and positive reinforcement
allows for a tremendous learning environment. After that
weekend class I became a sponsor for Carol and have
hosted quite a few more classes. There are many reasons
to become a sponsor. Being a sponsor allows you to build
relationships with others whose interests are
compatible. The depth of the training program that
Carol offers and the class’s available appeal to many
different individuals. The biggest job is getting the
word out on the classes and then they sell themselves.
I have continued to learn and grow throughout her
program. She is a joy to be around, both personally and
professionally. Not only the animals love her, but
people are drawn to her as well. It is truly a gift to
be able to reach animals and their human counterpart.
She is an ambassador for the animals in her program of
communication.

I am writing this on
behalf of Carol Gurney. Carol has been a gift in my
life. She is an amazing woman who I admire
whole-heartedly. Eight years ago, I began reading books
on Animal Communication. I knew that I had a unique
connection to animals as a child. As I grew older, I
was not sure exactly what my connection was or what it
meant. I had heard of Animal Communication and
Telepathy and at first I was extremely skeptical. I
thought mind speaking to animals was for gypsies or
witch type people. I did not truly believe it was
real. Then I meet Carol. She is down-to-earth and
truly inspiring. She did not seem “out there” or a
fraud. She became a wonderful teacher to me as well as
a mentor who I continually ask for advice and guidance.
After many years, she still is part of my support
system. How many people can say that about their
teachers?
Carol taught me that anyone
can develop their skills as an Animal Communicator. It
is a gift we all have. It may take practice and
discipline, but in time we all can hear the animals loud
and clear. Even as a beginning student, Carol always
made sure to validate each student’s experiences. She
made me believe in Animal Communication as well as MY
ability to talk to the animals. Because of Carol and
her unique style of teaching, I pushed myself to learn
and to grow with the animals.
Now, half my business is
talking to animals. It’s beautiful. What the animals
say and how they feel amazes me on a daily basis. I
thank Carol for believing in all her students and for
teaching us to believe in ourselves. I have clients
that ask me to teach them how to communicate with
animals. I send them all to Carol. I couldn’t possibly
be as great a teacher as she. A big part of who I am
today is because of Carol. She is the best teacher for
the student who is curious and wants to learn for fun as
well as the student who would like to become a
professional.
Thank
you Carol for all that you do!!

I have attended several of
Carol's workshops and loved every one of them. I am
currently preparing for Part IV. Studying with Carol
has changed my life dramatically. Carol's class series
supported my natural growth with attention on loving.
This is more than becoming an animal communicator, this
is letting my own divine light shine and watching other
participants shine too. What a blessing to learn, grow
and shine with her.
Carol is a living example
of a person following her heart and the tremendous love
and inner peace that comes from that seldom traveled
road. She answered a true calling to teach and she does
so with grace and an open heart. Carol is grounded,
intelligent, beautiful, open-minded, and open-hearted.
I couldn't have hoped for a better teacher and mentor.
Carol is a generous soul who is a champion for animals'
humane treatment and a genuine movement toward helping
their voices be heard. She taught me how animals have
so much to share and teach us.
Carol's program is focused,
professional, organized, and informative. She is always
prepared and provides the class with materials and
exercises to participate in. Learning in the group
provides the blessing of accelerated growth that comes
from the group energy. Carol helped us on so many
levels to connect with each other, animals, and
ourselves. She provides a safe space for learning and
exploring. Carol is a natural and inspired guide and
mentor.
Carol reaches out to each
person with loving-kindness. She is very supportive and
offers individual and useful input to each student. She
handles students having concerns or problems with
compassion, wisdom, and respect. Carol encourages and
helps people find their own gift and path. This is
truly a sacred journey and I can't imagine a more
benevolent or empowering guide than Carol Gurney.

The truth about Carol Gurney is that she
communicates with people as sublimely as she does
with Animals! I saw her work individually and
intently with each person in her classes. Successful
animal communication requires the courage to look
deeply within oneself and find a way through the
difficulties and successes encountered during
process. It is uncanny how Carol is able to astutely
guide each individual towards her or his full
capabilities. Her animal communication methods are
clear, direct, grounded, professional and
successful. Her beautiful, open heart and lively
presence, her love of all forms of life and her keen
abilities permeate the workshops. Working with Carol
and taking her workshops has the potential to change
your life, as well as every animal and animal's
guardian you will be talking with.

Who would have thought
that one could be taught to communicate with
animals? Carol Gurney does just that! Carol uses
traditional methodology to teach what we are all
innately gifted with, but somewhere along the line,
are taught to suppress. She states goals and
behavioral objectives and leads her students through
step-by-step procedures that are practiced,
validated, and evaluated.
Through a controlled,
safe, classroom environment, it becomes evident that
we all have this ability in varying degrees.
Carol's students are taught to open their hearts and
in doing so are enabled to retrieve the tools and
skills necessary to communicate with animals.

Since taking your
animal communication workshop I have had two amazing
experiences that I wanted to share with you. One was
a communication from Minnie, a dog who passed two
days previous. The message, which was "pick up your
hammer and get busy", was for Tom, her human
companion. For years the two had been inseparable.
Since Tom is sort of like a street person who lives
on an old boat, and since I have never known Tom to
work a trade, I had no idea what the hammer message
was about. When I told Tom he simply started crying.
But since then I noticed that Tom is doing odd jobs
for folks, including using a hammer! When I talked
to him about it, it turns out he used to be a
carpenter until he was injured in an industrial
accident many years ago. He is now plying his trade
on a smaller scale, just to stay busy as he gets
over the loss of his beloved Minnie.
The other message I sent was to my own dog, Cappy.
Somehow he picked up fleas, in spite of all my
efforts to prevent them. As soon as I saw those
fleas crawling through his fur and merely thought
the word "bath" he headed for his "bomb shelter"
from which nothing can dislodge him. Instead of
waiting until Jim came home to force him into the
tub, I got quiet and sent Cappy a message. I
visualized him getting in the bathtub and as I
gently lathered him, his physical discomfort
disappeared as each and every flea was washed down
the drain. Suddenly Cappy emerged from his hiding
place and got directly into the tub.
In light of these undeniable successes, I've already
signed up for both Body Balancing Workshops as well
as part one of the Training Program.

I can't even tell
you how much I enjoyed the Body Balancing
Workshop. I love communicating with animals but
the hands-on was really a boost to my confidence
because I could literally see the results of the
work. The skeptic in me was sent packing on the
very first day!

I
wanted to share with you a wonderful story of
finding my sweet cat, Caramel.
It
was a Friday evening, and Caramel (a sweet calico I
had gotten at the SPCA) didn't come in before I went
to sleep and when she wasn't around for her
breakfast, I started to get panicky. I started
searching the neighborhood, calling her name, trying
to figure out what could have happened to her. I
came home empty-handed, and with growing anxiety.
I
realized that I needed to calm down and remembered
what Carol taught us in her workshop. I got out
Carol's book, turned to the Lost Animal chapter, and
read it! I sat down, and began to meditate. Within
a few minutes I actually began to calm down and find
my center. I worked on sending a cord to Caramel's
heart, and felt a warm feeling, and a heart
beating. I asked if she was ok, and got a message
of yes, she was ok, and not hurt. I asked if she
could give me an idea of where she was. I got a
picture of her laying on a floor with sun shining
through some kind of slats onto her. I heard a
message from her--they shut the door on me. I also
worked on surrounding her in pink light with the
feeling of you'll be ok, I'll find you, as was
suggested in the book. I decided to also tune into
my other two cats. Loki didn’t know, but Frodo
showed me a picture of Caramel and a man "talking"
in front of a house nearby, with a streetlight
shining down on them.
I
walked around to the house I had seen in Frodo's
message…to the EXACT spot where Frodo had sent me
the picture. I finally stopped and listened, and I
heard a little, plaintive meow! It was coming from
the next house from the crawlspace. I ran over,
and could see Caramel through a screened in window
with opened slats!
I
want to thank you, Carol, for your pioneering effort
in letting people know that animals are conscious
beings who have much to teach us. I'm sure that
Caramel helped me that day to truly trust and commit
to making that connection with her. From my
desperation, I pushed myself to go to a deep place
to truly connect with her. I'm not so afraid
anymore and I have more faith that I'll be able to
find answers of problems.
Thanks for your book and techniques. They
definitely helped to show me the path to finding
Caramel.
Lots of love and blessings to you, Sue Wolf

I just had to write
to you and let you know what a profound effect
the Body Balancing course had on me. It's not
an overstatement to say that it was a
life-changing experience. It has been a
lifelong dream of mine to be able to communicate
on a deeper level with animals, and the body
work feels like such an important part of this
that it really can't be separated. All the
hands-on opportunities you provided were
wonderful. Feeling the immediate effects of the
work in their bodies blew me away! I Feel so
energized by my new-found ability to help
animals, I can't wait to try out the techniques
I learned on the animals in my life. I am so
looking forward to taking the Comprehensive
Training Program and pursuing this as my life's
work. I feel I have finally found my purpose,
which had been eluding me for so long. Thank
you for your sensitive, yet down-to-earth,
realistic training; I feel like I'm learning
something that can be tested and proven which
makes all the difference in the world.

“Ginger” was an owner relinquishment to the English
Springer Rescue America, Inc. because of behavioral
issues. Ginger had started growling at the family’s
18-month-old child and was in turn being attacked by
their other dog.
During the initial interview in December 2004, this
picture of Ginger, taken in her old home, was of a
very a very timid and shy dog who was frightened of
everything!
I brought her home on January 15, 2005. Even though
she was very sweet, Ginger did not do well in new
situations or around new people since her fear would
get the best of her and she would growl and nip at
others – truly a detriment when trying to place her
for adoption.
My job, as her Foster Mom, was to see what I could
do to help her. In the weeks that followed, Ginger
and I began bonding, however she was still
frightened. She never touched a toy and would
absolutely panic when I was out of her sight. I
was falling in love with her. But I also knew I
couldn’t adopt her, if her unpredictable behavior
wouldn’t change. She would come with me to church
classes, where everyone loved her, yet she would
growl and nip at the students.
I’d always felt that I knew what my dogs would be be
thinking, but never realized that I could possibly
really be “communicating” with them. For
example I knew that my Foster “Buck” needed a kind
and sensitive “Daddy” to adopt him. But Ginger was
proving to be a challenge for me. As I waited for an
animal behavioral trainer to come give her some
training sessions, my frustration grew since I did
not know how to deal with her.
Half joking, I told a friend that I wished there was
someway to know what Ginger was thinking, because I
didn’t know how to help her. As fate would have
it, Carol was offering a Beginner’s Class just two
days later!
I truly enjoyed Carol’s class and was very excited
about every aspect of it. On Sunday when it came
time for us to exchange pictures of our animals, I
shared one of Ginger’s pictures. Classmate Lisa
told me that “Ginger is very sweet, but she says
that she can bare her teeth”. I learned that though
she liked me, and wanted to stay with me, she felt
confused - she didn’t know if she was “staying or
going.” Ginger wanted me to know that she “wasn’t
really like this, that she really wanted to be a
happy dog.” I was blown away, because I’d been so
careful not to mention Ginger’s “issues” to anyone
during the class.
So, Sunday night after Carol’s Introductory &
Advanced Workshop, Ginger and I sat down to have a
“Heart to Heart”. I told Ginger that I loved her,
and that I wanted to adopt her, but that she would
have to show me that she could be a “Happy Dog” like
she said. I told her that she could use her voice
to play, but that she couldn’t use her voice in fear
or anger, because it wasn’t appropriate. She did not
need to worry or be scared, because nothing was
going to hurt her. However, if she wanted to live
with me she would need to be a brave strong girl
because we would be going camping, and to strange
and unusual places all the time. Her life would
often be filled with new people coming to the
house. Life in my home would be busy and
adventurous and if she wanted to stay with me, I
needed to know that she could be happy here.
The next morning as I was sitting at my computer, I
heard all this commotion out in the sun porch. The
next thing I knew a brown blur raced past the office
door. A minute later, the brown blur raced the
opposite direction down the hall. Excitedly Ginger
came charging into my office with a toy, throwing it
in the air and chasing it; begging me to come and
play with her. This was the first time since she
had been in my home that she even touched a toy, let
alone be so playful and happy! This was her way of
letting me know she wanted to stay with me, and that
she could be a “Happy Dog”.
Ginger’s behavior changed over night. She no longer
growls at people that come into the house, or when I
take her to church classes. She is now brave and
playful. We fearlessly go to the dog park and she
is even playful with our new Foster, “Duncan”. On
April 1st we made it official, and I
adopted Ginger from ESRA. Oh, by the way…. when the
Behavioral Trainer finally arrived to work with us,
Ginger was not displaying any signs of her previous
behavior. No matter how much the Trainer would try
to startle and frighten Ginger, she would flinch,
but never growled or displayed any fear aggression.
Ginger is a Happy Dog!
This
is Ginger today. She just turned 5 years old on
April 23, 2005, celebrating with her new collar and
blue stuffed toy. As you can see, she is a
different dog. She is no longer afraid to look
someone in the eye, and loves to play with all her
toys! She loves to go camping and is doing
incredibly well at meeting new people. She is very
secure now and is happy enough to share her home
with another Springer that needs fostering, love and
healing like she once did.
In February I didn’t
even know I was looking for an animal communicator,
but the Universe made sure I was in the right place
at the right time to find Carol. Not only did I
find Carol, but I have found my heart’s passion. I
just completed Carol’s Six-Day Comprehensive Part
One Training Program. I found this course to be
more than I could have ever imagined in depth and
focus. At the same time, it is simple, direct and
totally beautiful. I highly recommend Carol’s
HeartTalk Programs, as she is an outstanding
teacher. She holds a very sacred space for her
students to blossom and grow. I am totally amazed
at the progress and skills I’ve learned in such a
short time, and feel very blessed to have been led
to Carol as my teacher in animal communication.
Ginger and I thank you Carol. Your techniques helped
change her behavior over night. Duncan, and all of
my future Fosters, thank you as well. We send our
love and thanks to Carrie, Tallanny, Happy Cat and
Jessie for also being our teachers!

It's become more
and more clear to me over the years that what
calls to my heart more than anything else is the
desire to help and to communicate with animals.
I just bought your "Beginner's Guide" CD and am
thrilled with it. Your teaching style resonates
with me much better than some other approaches I
have tried. I'm like you -- analytical,
left-brained. I try too hard, I get in my own
way. Knowing you've been here and that you've
gotten past these obstacles gives me hope that
I, too, can do this.
Thank you for
making all of this available, and for all the
animals you've helped.

I just wanted to
say how much I enjoyed the weekend workshop that
I attended in Kentucky in June 2004, As a
professional animal communicator for the past
several years, I was experiencing what I would
call, a block in the development of my
communication skills. Carol's workshop was the
jumpstart I needed to get to the next level, and
it helped me to make an even deeper commitment
to my work.
In the three days,
which included the Introductory and Advanced
Animal Communication and Death and Dying
workshop, she brought our group along with such
ease that I think we all made great progress in
a very short time.
Carol has a
delightful way of expressing herself and her
lessons, using her own cases as examples. It
made it so much easier to learn and understand
the techniques. I found that her suggestions
for using tools to assist in making a connection
with an animal easily enabled by to get through
the door of what I had previously considered a
solid brick wall.
I look forward to
continuing my education with Carol in the near

Carol Gurney is a
superb instructor whether you are just beginning to
explore the world of Animal Communication or already
have some experience. She makes learning fun,
interesting and challenges you to go deeper and
search for more detail. Carol teaches you to
problem solve for everyday situations as well as
embark on a more spiritual journey in her death and
dying classes.
Carol has several strategies for those who "think"
they can't communicate with animals. She is
supportive and has the gift to put everyone at ease
and turns every situation into a learning experience
for everyone.
I would recommend Carol's class to anyone of any age
or walk of life.
She is professional at all times, her program is
well organized and she
is able to answer questions with clarity.

From the Lessons of Love Workshop ....
A significant
effect of this workshop for me was realizing my
animals are in my life for reasons of their own! I
always viewed myself as their caretaker, playmate,
protector and provider of unquestioning love...and
only wanted their love and companionship in return.
I never thought there was anything else! Now I
realize they have their own purposes; their own
lessons to teach me. Carol's seminar opened my eyes
to these lessons and has given me the opportunity to
have a richer and broader relationship with the
animals in my life.

A
few kind words for Carol from Finland...
Thank you ever so much
for the wonderful weekend in Kurikka! Your warm
heart, empathy, wisdom and great sense of humor made
it very special for all of us. We are privileged to
have had the opportunity to walk on this special
path you have led us to...the path that brings us
even closer to nature, its souls, and connects our
hearts. We are all looking forward to your return
in Summer 2006 and new learning! Thank you Carol.
