Hypnotize Me

When the opportunity to interview Animal Communicator Ellie Laks was presented, I jumped at the opportunity! Who doesn’t want to know what their pet is thinking? Or other animals too! Ellie is a remarkable animal communicator and the visionary founder of The Gentle Barn. In this episode, she opens up about embracing her intuitive gift of animal communication and gives tips about how to understand your own animals. She shares her extraordinary journey of connecting with animals from a young age, leading her to establish a sanctuary in 1999 that serves as a peaceful haven for creatures in need. Her insights reveal the emotional and ethical challenges faced in animal rescue, providing a heartfelt exploration of the compassion required to care for animals who might otherwise be forgotten. About Ellie Laks Ellie Laks founded The Gentle Barn in 1999; it was a dream of hers since she was seven years old. Animals were always very healing and nurturing to her as she faced the challenges of growing up, finding herself, fitting in, feeling understood, etc. She majored in special education and psychology, and with her special love of animals and children, The Gentle Barn was a perfect way of putting all her talents and passions into one. She’s the author of two books about her experiences. Find her books or see more about The Gentle Barn through https://www.gentlebarn.org   Although the animals always spoke to her, she began doing formal animal communication sessions for others in 2021.

Lisa Viviano and Dr. Liz brave a sensitive topic by sharing their experience with bladder leakage. They discuss how unexpected factors contributes to it, and how hypnosis helped them both immensely not just keep control but also feel more confident again that they can live without peeing themselves without warning! The improvement that Lisa had in bladder control led her to change her career in the dental field and train in hypnosis. She became a “hypnosis consultant” herself. She talks about how it has been “life altering” and gives tips for successful hypnosis. And they both share their “magic phrases” that help them stay dry and in control!
