Deepen Your Spirituality While Shoveling Manure
Stephanie Marohn, author of “What the Animals Taught Me: Stories of Love and Healing from a Farm Animal Sanctuary,” knows what it means to work on behalf of animals. To support her activism, she walks a mystical path with practical feet (i.e. connects with animals on a spiritual level while shoveling manure).
Marohn runs the Animal Messenger Sanctuary, a safe haven for farmed animals in northern California. She also has a practice in energy healing for animals and is the author of ten books on mind-body-spirit topics. She joins us to discuss an often-neglected aspect of activist self-care, clearing emotional baggage and energy blockages that, if left untreated, can contribute to burnout.
Hear more activist strategies from Stephanie Marohn on our next Sustainable Activism Webinar on Thursday, February 2, 5:00 p.m. – 6 p.m. PST (8:00 p.m. – 9 p.m. EST). You can join this live webinar via phone or online. For an optimal experience, please login to the meeting from your Chrome browser. Please note that if you choose not to receive In Defense of Animals emails, you won’t receive the webinar details.

Hope For Animals Summit
Never has there been a time when so much of what we cherish in the world is in question, and so much is at stake. We are about to experience the world political stage change as dramatically as anything could, with radical consequences for animals and the environment. We face increased threats to safe and clean drinking water, rising water levels caused by global warming, and that is just the beginning of the impact on humans. What does this changing world have in store for animals, and what can we do about it?
Just as the West seems poised to imperil our planet, China has reversed its ivory policy bringing new hope for elephants. Is the collective consciousness shifting?
Regardless of all that is going on in the world, there is hope for animals as long as we come together and bring focus on our interconnected world.
In Defense of Animals and Joan Ranquet, Animal Communicator, author, and founder of Communication with All Life University, have teamed up to bring you the first ever Hope for Animals Summit.
Hope for Animal’s Summit is a FREE online event with speakers who have dedicated their lives to animal advocacy. Please join us now to see what you can do to help animals at this crucial moment.
