"Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better." -Albert Einstein
Laws of nature are not optional if broken, there are consequences to following. The same is true of the laws of nature within the bodies of our pets.
Many people seeking out this program for their pets are looking for a new beginning, something different after conventional methods that have failed.

Here’s your NEW START with the 8 Laws of Health in Naturopathy:
Nutrition: All species must eat what they are designed to eat in order to thrive. In nature, food is not cooked. It is raw and readily available according to each species unique anatomy and physiology.
Exercise: Exercise is never optional. Animals are meant to move daily. In the wild, foraging, grazing, and hunting, depending on the species is done daily. Movement is life. It is needed to find food, grow, stay strong, and move toxins from the body.
Water: Always give pure, fresh, unadulterated water. If you drink filtered water, your pets should too! Avoid water with fluoride, chlorine, and other toxins. If looking for a pitcher that filters these, Seychelle and Berkey are two brands that offer both chlorine and fluoride filtration available.
Sun/Supplements: Animals know what is needed to stay healthy. Supplements may be needed due to depletion of our soils which translates into nutrient lacking plants which translate to nutrient lacking herbivores and finally translates into lack of nutrients in omnivores and carnivores.
Temperance: This is an old-fashioned word for moderation.
Air: Every living creature needs fresh air daily and to be outdoors!
Rest: Get plenty of rest without the noise of modern appliances and electronics that can interfere with deep sleep. Rest is when most cellular healing occurs.
Trust: Trust is a firm belief in the reliability, truth, ability, and/or strength of something or someone. This is always the case with the laws of nature. This means we must have faith in the previous laws, as being the true path to health, longevity, and quality of life. Trust in the laws of health to the point of not becoming fearful when the body begins to detoxify or taking time to heal. Lastly, trust is trusting in pet's ability to heal from within their own body and building an honest relationship with the animals in our care, understanding their needs, rather than making them do what we want, which allows for true companionship.

Animal naturopathy is based on 6 principles to assist in maintaining wellness or healing of our pets:
The Healing Power of Nature
The body has the inherent ability to heal itself. Animal Naturopathy works with these processes, rather than against them. The healing process is intelligent and ordered.
Identify and Address the Cause
Every illness has a cause of either thoughts, trauma, or toxins. Symptoms are manifested as the body's attempt to heal, but are not the actual cause of illness. Naturopathy finds and corrects the underlying cause, rather than masking symptoms with drugs or removing body parts through surgery.
First, Do No Harm
Methods used to assist the body's natural processes, which minimizes the risk of harmful side effects. Methods used to suppress symptoms are avoided.
Doctor As Teacher
The original meaning of doctor is a teacher. The primary goal in naturopathy and this program is to educate the client and emphasize the responsibility of their pet's health.
Target the Whole Animal
All aspects of the animal are evaluated, not just where symptoms are showing. This includes physical, mental, and emotional areas. Everything is connected, and one ill-functioning area of the body will in fact affect other areas, everything is connected.
Prevention is the Best Cure
Illness is often due to diet, habits, and lifestyle. It is best to be proactive when it comes to health rather than leaving it up to chance. It is much easier to maintain health than to regain health.
Health does not depend on chance or luck. It is the result of following the laws and principles. All of creation follows these. Keep these in mind when making choices in your pet's health and lifestyle.
