For Animal Guardians
Empowering People Through Knowledge, Compassion & Understanding
My animal wellbeing presentations encourage audiences to see animals through a wider lens: as living, breathing, sentient beings with individual needs, preferences, emotions and ways of communicating.
By combining professional knowledge, practical experience and real-life stories, I help people deepen their understanding of the animals in their care and explore ways to support their health, wellbeing and quality of life.
Sample presentations include:
“Animal Communication – Listening Beyond Words”
Explore the many ways animals communicate and how love, respect, observation, listening and understanding can deepen the relationship between animals and the people who care for them.
This thought-provoking talk encourages audiences to see familiar behaviours through fresh eyes and consider how greater awareness can create happier, healthier and more harmonious relationships.
“Animal Wisdom – How Animals Harness the Healing Power of Plants”
Animals possess an innate ability to seek natural substances that may support their physical, emotional and behavioural wellbeing.
Drawing upon Applied Zoopharmacognosy and real-life examples, this fascinating talk explores how animals interact with herbs, roots, powders, clays and aromatic plant extracts when offered choice and allowed to guide the process.
“The Animal-Human Connection –
The Silent Language of Energy Exchange”
Explore the subtle yet powerful energetic exchanges that occur between humans and animals, and consider how our emotions, thoughts and energy may influence the animals around us.
Through practical examples and personal stories, this talk explores the invisible connections we share and how greater self-awareness can deepen trust, understanding and mutual wellbeing.
“Support Your Pet’s Body Naturally – Reducing Toxic Exposure and Making Safer Choices for Pets, People & the Planet”
An exploration of the toxins our animals routinely encounter, including many treatments used as ‘just in case’ preventatives – together with practical, natural ways to reduce unnecessary exposure.
This presentation looks at approaches such as worm counts, herbal prevention and natural treatments, helping animal guardians move away from routine chemical use towards more considered, informed choices.
Together, we’ll explore how supporting our animals’ health more naturally can also benefit the people who love them, and the wider world we all share.”

Interactive Workshops
Learning Through Experience
I facilitate interactive educational workshops that encourage participants to explore, experience and learn in practical, engaging and memorable ways.
Every workshop is individually designed around the audience, learning objectives and available time. Sessions create opportunities for observation, discussion, shared discovery and meaningful participation.
Sample presentations include:
“Calming Herbs, Powders & Aromas for Primates”
An interactive sensory-enrichment workshop exploring how carefully selected plant materials may support choice, engagement and wellbeing for primates living in captivity.
Participants are invited to experience the herbs and aromas for themselves, before preparing, observing and recording the individual reactions, preferences and responses of the primates in their care.
“I loved how you invited us to try the herbs to see
how they made us feel”
Nicole, Animal Carer, Monkey Haven Primate Rescue Centre
“I saw our primates so differently in this workshop. Seeing and understanding their reactions and responses was fascinating”

For Horse Guardians & Livery Yards
Practical Wisdom for Horse Guardians
For horse guardians and livery communities, these sessions offer an interactive, hands-on experience – tailored specifically to the world of horses.
Through observation, discussion and shared discovery, participants gain a deeper understanding of their horse’s needs, behaviour and the relationship they share.
Sample presentations include:
“Animal Wisdom: How Horses Harness the Healing Power of Plants”
An engaging and interactive introduction to the innate wisdom of horses and their relationship with Nature’s pharmacy.

Sound Healing for Horses
An Immersive Sound & Frequency Experience
An immersive sound healing experience for horses and their guardians, using the sounds and frequencies of singing bowls, gong and hoop drum. Drawing on a recent sound bath held outside – where horses from neighbouring paddocks were drawn in by the tones, each receiving their own healing transmission, even in pouring rain – this experience reveals the deep relaxation, release and connection that sound can offer, for horses and humans alike.
Participants witness first-hand how instinctively horses respond to sound and frequency – often showing visible signs of relaxation, release and trust – a moving reminder of just how attuned horses are to the world around them, and to us.
“Thank you, Anthea. We all really enjoyed it and loved how interactive it was. The children really enjoyed it too.
We all learnt a lot.”
T. Janes, Southyew Stud
“Anthea, thank you so much for coming to the farm to share your knowledge and professionalism. The liveries who attended have given great feedback and will hopefully use the advice you shared with us.”

FAQs
Q1: What topics do you speak about and what types of groups or organisations do you work with?
My talks draw upon many years of experience across animal wellbeing, complementary health, spirituality, nature connection and personal transformation. I enjoy sharing knowledge and experiences in an engaging, accessible and thought-provoking way, adapting each presentation to the interests of the audience.
Animal Healing & Wellbeing
Topics include Animal Communication, Animal Healing, Applied Zoopharmacognosy, natural approaches to animal health and wellbeing, equine wellbeing, and understanding animals from a more holistic perspective.
Sample presentations include:
- Secrets of the Animal Kingdom: Exploring Animal Communication – explore the fascinating world of telepathic animal communication and how we can better understand and respond to the thoughts, feelings and needs of our animal friends.
- Animal Wisdom: How Animals Harness the Healing Power of Plants – discover how animals have an innate understanding of nature’s pharmacy and how this can support their health and wellbeing naturally.
- Building Bridges: The Role of Respect, Time and Trust for Happy, Healthy Pets – explore the importance of patience, respect and trust in creating safe, positive relationships with our animal friends.
The Animal–Human Connection
This naturally bridges my Animal and Human Healing work, exploring the profound relationship we share with animals and the ways in which our physical, emotional and energetic wellbeing can influence those with whom we share our lives.
- The Silent Language: Energy Exchange Between Humans and Animals – explore the subtle but powerful energetic exchanges that can occur between humans and animals, and how greater awareness of this connection can deepen our relationships and support mutual wellbeing.
Human Healing & Wellbeing
My Human Healing talks explore the relationship between mind, heart, energy, intuition and spiritual wellbeing, and how greater self-awareness can help us reconnect with ourselves and live more authentically.
Sample presentations include:
- Get Out of Your Mind and Into Your Heart – a gentle yet powerful invitation to move beyond overthinking and reconnect with the wisdom of the heart, intuition and heart-led living.
- The Heart: Where Science & Spirituality Meet – bringing together scientific understanding, ancient wisdom and spiritual awareness to explore heart coherence, emotional balance, connection and the transformative power of Love energy.
- Spiritual Healing & Intuition – an accessible and grounded exploration of energy, intuition and spiritual wellbeing, encouraging greater awareness of our subtle senses and trust in our own inner wisdom.
Forest Bathing & Nature Connection
Topics include Forest Bathing and its benefits, reconnecting with the natural world, mindful and sensory engagement with nature, and exploring how intentional time in nature can support our wellbeing.
- Nature as One of Our Greatest Teachers – through personal stories, reflection and observations from the natural world, this talk explores how slowing down and reconnecting with Nature can offer insight, perspective and a deeper understanding of ourselves.
I speak to a wide variety of audiences, including equestrian groups and livery yards, animal and welfare organisations, community and wellbeing groups, businesses, special-interest groups and event audiences.
I am equally comfortable contributing to panel discussions, podcasts, interviews and live online conversations.
These are simply examples. Every audience is different, and I am happy to adapt an existing presentation or create something bespoke to suit your group, event or particular area of interest.
Many of these presentations can also be developed into interactive workshops, combining shared learning with practical exercises, guided experiences, group participation and opportunities for deeper exploration of the subject.
Q2: Can you create a bespoke talk or workshop for our group or event?
Absolutely. I am very happy to create a bespoke talk, presentation or workshop specifically for your group, organisation or event.
We can begin with a conversation about your audience, their interests and experience, the time available, and what you would most like them to take away from the session. From there, I can bring together relevant areas of my knowledge and experience to create something specifically around your chosen theme, objectives and audience.
A talk may be primarily informative and thought-provoking, with time for questions and discussion, while a workshop offers the opportunity to make the experience more interactive and experiential. Depending upon the subject, this might include guided meditation, mindfulness or sensory exercises, practical demonstrations, reflective activities, group discussion or opportunities to explore the topic more deeply.
Sessions can range from shorter presentations to more immersive workshops and can be designed for groups of different sizes and levels of experience.
Whether your focus is Animal Healing & Wellbeing, the Animal–Human Connection, Human Healing & Wellbeing, or Forest Bathing & Nature Connection, my aim is to create an engaging and meaningful experience that feels relevant to the people in the audience.
Q3: Are you available for podcasts, panels and online events as well as in-person speaking engagements?
Yes. I am available for podcasts, interviews, panel discussions, live online events and recorded conversations, as well as in-person talks, presentations and workshops.
I particularly enjoy conversations that allow different perspectives and areas of knowledge to come together. Whether I am contributing as a guest speaker, panellist, podcast guest or workshop facilitator, I bring both my professional experience and intuitive perspective to discussions around Animal Healing & Wellbeing, the Animal–Human Connection, Human Healing & Wellbeing, Spirituality, and Forest Bathing & Nature Connection.
Whilst I am based on the Isle of Wight, my work is by no means limited to the Island. I welcome invitations to speak, present and facilitate at events further afield, alongside opportunities to contribute to online events, podcasts, panels and interviews.
If you have a particular theme, question or conversation in mind, please Contact Me. I would be delighted to explore how I might contribute to your event, programme, podcast or panel.
