Penelope Smith
Cultivate peace, harmony, and joy when you telepathically communicate with animal friends and all of life — with time-tested methods from Penelope Smith, the grandmother of animal communication.
Do you ever wish there was a way to know what your animal friend is thinking?
Actually, there is, says Penelope Smith, the founding pioneer of interspecies telepathic communication — and one of the original pioneers of the modern animal communication movement.
In fact, everyone has the ability to communicate with animals — and all forms of life — says Penelope.
As you learn from animals and deepen your connection with them, you’ll discover your own telepathic strengths and weaknesses — and along the way, come to understand the innermost essence of who you are.
In 1971, Penelope discovered that animals could be relieved of emotional traumas and problematic behaviors through the same counseling techniques that help humans. Since then, she’s communicated telepathically with thousands of animals — and taught her students around the world to do the same.
In her 12-module advanced course, Penelope guides you on a spiritual journey to discover and refine your telepathic communication skills with animals and all forms of nature, including plants, mountains, waters, and other land formations — and even protozoans, algae, bacteria, and fungi.
In each module, Penelope shares wisdom teachings and practical exercises so you can practice embracing your innate interspecies telepathic communication skills.
You’ll learn new ways to communicate with other species, including shamanic journeys. You’ll even learn how to structure effective consultations with those who long to communicate with an animal in their lives.
The advanced insights and skills you’ll build include understanding how animals view death and dying... discovering how to help them in the dying process... learning energetic healing... and knowing how to communicate with new species — including animals you might not be comfortable with, such as spiders — that actually have incredible powers. You’ll learn to scan other species’ bodies to understand what’s happening energetically, and so much more...
Penelope began communicating telepathically with animals as a child, and she’s gone on to connect with thousands of animals throughout her career — and to teach thousands of students around the world to do the same.
Penelope’s journey into animal communication grew into a career in the 1970s when she was deeply involved in spiritual counseling, including advanced past-life regressions. After successfully helping a severely traumatized cat using the same techniques she used to help people, she realized she could apply her extensive knowledge in counseling, bodywork, energy work, and nutritional counseling to help animals overcome their challenges as well.
In this illuminating program, you’ll realize that you always had the skills to communicate with, and learn from, the billions of beings around you...
Shift your consciousness in profound new ways with Penelope's expert guidance to connect with animals and all of life as the spiritual beings they truly are — as you evolve alongside them and cultivate your innate animal communication skills.

Module 4 Discover Power Animals as Allies to Boost Your Telepathic Connection and Healing Power
Shamanism is the ancient, Indigenous, widespread practice of accessing direct spiritual revelation to guide you on your life journey.
Shamanic journeys can be a vital transformational tool for spiritual support, solving problems, healing oneself, and helping others.
Penelope has found that retrieving a lost power animal or linking up with your special animal guide for this course expands your ability to telepathically communicate with other species during and after the course.

Communicating with animals often begins with those you’re familiar and comfortable with, such as cats, dogs, and horses...
In this module, you’ll get to stretch your boundaries.
You’ll focus on animals you don’t know very well or that are outside your comfort zone, such as rats, snakes, spiders, and large carnivores.

Module 7 Cultivate a Growing Partnership With Animal Companions to Help Each Other on Your Life Journeys
People often think of their animal companions as dependents who they take care of. They may not see animals as fellow beings on life’s journey.
The truth is, animals are here to fulfill their purposes and advance spiritually and also have a special relationship with you.
Being close to animals gives you an opportunity to recognize and cultivate their role as your teachers and guides.
Penelope will guide you to ask spiritually-oriented and emotionally deep questions that not only reveal animals’ awareness, but show how they can teach and guide you.

Module 8 Communicate With Your Closest Animal Friend - Your Own Body - for Greater Wellbeing
Your human body is your closest animal friend. We do our best to keep our animal companions healthy; it makes sense to do the same for our own bodies.
You unconsciously transmit emotions, stresses, and thoughts to your body, sometimes creating illness. You’ll learn to consciously communicate with your body to find out what’s going on when your body hurts and what it may need to feel better.
You’ll use your hands to scan and telepathically sense energy blockages in your own body, as well as animals’ bodies. Scanning is not used to diagnose illness, which is for trained medical professionals. You’ll use it to gain an understanding of what the body is experiencing, to better assess what health protocol might be helpful, and to help release energetic blockages.
In this module, you’ll:
- Begin to look at your human body as your most intimate animal friend
- Communicate telepathically with your body to find out what’s going on when your body hurts and what may help it feel better
- Use your hands to scan your body to get more information about what hurts and how to help yourself feel better
- Help your body feel better with telepathic hand sensing and healing
Module 9 Communicate With & Energetically Scan Animals' Bodies to Discern What May Need Attention & Help Release Blockages
Sometimes our animal friends feel ill but don’t understand what’s going on or what could help them when we ask. Communicating with an animal’s body can provide missing and helpful information.
Our animal friends also have emotions and stresses that can affect their bodies, sometimes creating illness. We’ll communicate with their bodies to find out what’s going on when they hurt and what the body may need to feel better.
We’ll learn how to use our hands to scan and telepathically sense energy blockages or weaknesses in our animal companions’ bodies. Scanning is not used to diagnose illness, which is for veterinarians to do. We’ll use it to get more understanding of what the body is experiencing, to better decide what health protocol might be helpful, and to help release energetic blockages.
In this module, you’ll:
- Use your hands to scan an animal’s body to get more information about what hurts
- Communicate with body parts that may feel blocked, weak, or need help
- Communicate with your animal friend’s whole body to find out what’s going on when the body hurts and what may help it feel better
- Help your animal friend feel better with telepathic hand sensing and healing
Module 10 Successfully Structure In-Person & Remote Animal Consultations to Effectively Solve Problems & Be of Service
Penelope will explain the most effective structure for a problem-solving consultation with people and their animal companions.
You’ll explore the difference between working in-person and long distance, and learn to cultivate an effective telepathic connection, no matter the distance.
You’ll adopt a professional, effective approach of remaining in the neutral zone – respecting and not judging or reacting to what clients say or do as you stay grounded and centered.
You’ll learn to stay telepathically in tune with the animal and their person to deliver the animal’s communication with the right words and compassionate feeling – so it comes across in a way that the person can accept and understand.
In this module, you’ll:
- Experience the joy of facilitating more harmony and understanding for those who ask for our help

Module 11 Add to the Healing Power of Your Animal Communication Skills as You Work Energetically With Animal Illness or Injury
When an animal is ill or injured, the veterinarian’s job is to handle the physical condition. Despite their best efforts, psychosomatic or stress-related elements can cause, worsen, or prolong physical discomfort...
Animal communication and healing energy practices are an ideal complement to the work of a veterinarian – addressing the emotional, mental, and spiritual components of illness.
Penelope will guide you to extend the use of your hands through a powerful but simple practice used throughout human history – hands-on and distance energetic healing.
As Penelope will explain, everyone, including you, has the power to channel healing energy from the Universe through their hands to help others – without draining any energy from their bodies.
You’ll take the shamanic and spiritual healing practices you’ve learned in this course and use them to help animals in distress to complement veterinary help, adding a new dimension of healing power to your animal communication.
In this module, you’ll:
- Practice energetic healing with a member of Penelope’s animal family
- Learn which questions to ask to find out how the animal feels and whether energetic healing will be helpful.
- Use shamanic journeys or healing hands with other animals who are not feeling well
- Feel the value of using energetic healing practices as an addition to communicating with animals
Module 12 Communicate With the Leaders of Other Species to Make a Positive Difference for All Life on Earth
Are you concerned about the state of the planet and the amount of environmental degradation and harm to other species? You may feel overwhelmed about how to help restore balance...
There are trillions of other beings on the planet who are already doing their part in the web of life to create harmony. And throughout this course, you’ve been communicating with them!
As Penelope will explain, it’s also possible to communicate with leaders of species or groups of animals, plants, and more.
These leaders, representatives, ambassadors, or oversouls convey the collective wisdom of their kind and welcome your engagement with them to learn and cooperate in planetary healing. You’ll learn how to get their input on what needs to be done for them, their ecosystem, and the whole planet.
You’ll have a joyful role in a new paradigm of harmony for all on our planet with the healing force of trillions behind you!
In this closing module, you’ll:
- Find out about the role of other species in planetary healing
- Do an exercise to communicate with leaders of species or groups of animals, plants, and other life forms
- Discover through telepathic communication with other species and life forms how you can team up with them to heal the planet

About Penelope Smith
Penelope Smith is the founding pioneer of interspecies telepathic communication, having practiced professionally since the 1970s. Communicating with animals telepathically throughout her life, she discovered in 1971 that animals could be relieved of emotional traumas and other problems through the same counseling techniques that helped humans.
Her training and experience include bachelor’s and master’s degrees in the social sciences... years of training and experience in human counseling, nutrition, and holistic body energy balancing methods... research into animal nutrition, anatomy, behavior, and care... and her firsthand education from the thousands of animals she has contacted.
Penelope published some of the first and now classic books and audio recordings in the field. The tried-and-true telepathic communication techniques she developed are widely used by others in the field. Her students affectionately call her the grandmother of interspecies telepathic communication. A legendary teacher, she helped launch the careers of professional animal communicators around the world.
Penelope feels that the sacred connection made through telepathic communication with other species is essential for human wholeness. She believes everyone is born with the power to communicate with other species, and that we all can rediscover this ability for the benefit of all beings on Earth.
