I find it an interesting connection, how we can be healed by touching the animal realm. Yesterday I was watching a long documentary on Koko, the gorilla who has been taught sign language, and it was like I made a wonderful connection inside to something very gentle and warm. It put me in mind of how many people are healed by having animals around them.
Take for example pets. Many people with mental health afflictions keep cats or dogs, and find great comfort in the simple companionship offered by these animals. There are few things as satisfying as stroking a cat or having it purr while sitting in your lap. I think many people's lives are made happier by having pets.
Also as an example take recovery farms. These are agricultural farms where you can go to recover from a psychotic disorder or similar episode, and you work a lot with animals such as cows, goats and so on. I think you end up settling in the restful energy that these environments provide, and they are conducive to healing on that level.
