Beyond Body, Mind, and Spirit

Jan Allegretti is a teacher, consultant and writer in the field of holistic health care for animals. She is the author of Listen to the Silence: Lessons From Trees and Other Masters, and co-author with Katy Sommers of The Complete Holistic Dog Book: Home Health Care for Our Canine Companions. As a regular contributor to IDA's e-newsletter, Jan explores how we live with, love and care for the animals who share our homes, the land we live on, our communities, and our planet. In the coming months she will bring us ideas for taking a holistic approach to the health and happiness of the nonhuman family members who greet us every morning. We'll discuss lifestyle, nutrition, homeopathy, bodywork and more. Jan will also explore the heart and spirit of animal advocacy, and how we relate to our nonhuman friends as individual guardians and as a society. Jan welcomes your input. Let her know what questions you have, or any topics you'd like to see addressed. It won't be possible to respond to all comments individually, but knowing what you're thinking will help make this column a place to explore the things that matter most to all of us.
