Ruth Hatten - Sahaja Animal Healing

Holistic Animal Care Mentor. Naturopathy, Nutrition, Plant Medicine, Energy & Spirituality. When I was 11, I made the decision to stop eating my friends.
(11)

As anyone who knows me will tell you, my number one passion in life is animals. If I could surround myself with animals and just be with them, forsaking all others (well, most others - I'd keep a handful of my closest people nearby) I would be like a pig in mud.

I have loved animals since I was a little girl. Growing up with cats and dogs helped to instill in me a great love for our furry frie

nds. I became vegetarian. 16 years later, I took the big step of going 100% plant based, forsaking all animal products. As an animal lover, it seems nonsensical to eat them. How can I love one and eat another?

Through the journey that is my present life, I have moulded an existence that capitilises on skills and experiences I have gathered along the way to help animals.

* I use my knowledge of plant-based living to mentor others in their exploration of this lifestyle. This is done through my business .

* I use my qualifications as a lawyer and experience in practising animal law to assist with legislative change, policy improvements and education. This is done through my collaboration with a number of organisations including Voiceless, The Animal Law Institute, the Centre for Compassionate Conservation and the Australian Animal Protection Law Journal. I am often called on to speak at animal rights rallies and events. You can find out more at https://www.ruthhatten.com/advocacy and https://www.ruthhatten.com/news.

* I use my qualifications as an animal nutritionist and massage therapist to directly assist cats and dogs with natural remedies for disease prevention and achieving optimum health. This is done through my business Sahaja Animal Healing.

Overall, it's all about the animals for me. To continue the fight for animals takes dedication, compassion and an overall abundance of love for each and every one of them. I couldn't do this without a solid support network of friends, family and most of all my cherished darlings whom I share every day with - cats Lilly, Max, Elvy and rescue greyhound, Louie.

If you're drawn to working with me, or even if you just want to chat, I'd love to hear from you. Always for the Animals,
Ruth xx

Liver problems, kidney problems, gut problems, skin problems… yes I offer therapeutic diet plans for all of these ailments and more 🙌🏼

I work holistically. So no matter what is going on health-wise with your animal, my focus is on supporting their whole body whilst simultaneously supporting areas where there is weakness / disfunction.

Over the past decade, I have helped hundreds of animals with a variety of health challenges. The second pic above 👆🏼 gives some examples of the types of health issues I’ve assisted animals with.

✅ I do this with diet, supplements, herbs, energy healing and more.

As a pet parent, I support you through the process too, helping you to understand your role in their animal’s health and wellbeing, to learn skills on how to show up as a better pet parent and foster a deeper heart-soul connection, and to navigate challenges that will almost always arise when supporting an animal to heal ❤️‍🩹

⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you’re ready to receive expert advice on how to support your animal with their health and wellbeing, this month I’m offering wellness consults for just $50 ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Book in June for your consult to occur July onwards.

🏃🏽‍♀️Only four days left to secure your animal’s spot!

👉🏼 Link to book in my bio or DM me and I’ll get you sorted.

When we wake tomorrow morning it will officially be the Winter Solstice here in Australia. The shortest day, the longest night. A time for deep rest and reflection.

I’m making the most of this time and having a few days off to catch up on some personal admin and to rest. I will be doing my level 5 pranic energy healing course on the weekend though, but that will align nicely with the energies of the season.

You can still head to my website and make bookings for the week of 3 July onwards, including for the June special offer of $50 wellness consults (you have until the end of the month to book in). Link in bio for that.

In closing, I thought I’d share these beautiful words with you by Wendell Berry:

“To go in the dark with a light is to know the light.

To know the dark, go dark. Go without sight,

and find that the dark, too, blooms and sings,

and is traveled by dark feet and dark wings.”

Many happy Solstice blessings to you. May you rest easy over these few days ✨💗🌸🌳

15 years and one week ago today, this little guy came into my life. Little Maximus, Maxi, Max. I felt that Lilly, my Birman, needed a playmate. When I brought Max home from the foster house (where he was living with a dozen other cats, hiding under the table waiting for all the other cats to eat their dinner, my friend pointed him out “what about this one?”), Lilly was not impressed. But she guided him as he grew and they both got into A LOT of mischief over the years. These photos offer just a glimpse of that 🤣

He’s my serious one. My shy one. My lion 🦁 My gentle one. My healing one. If you’ve ever had a zoom call with me or watched my podcast, you will probably have seen him. He loves to join in these sessions, offering his wisdom and support.

Celebrating this very special feline and honouring the special love that rescues bring into our lives. With their own pasts, their own hurts, navigating life alongside us. Helping us to heal as they heal too.

You’re so special to me Maxi. I love you with all my heart and soul 💗🙏🏻

Just like humans, not all dogs go grey. Why is that? 🤔

And it's not just old dogs that can go grey. Young dogs can too.

This beautiful girl here is Bobbie 😍 She's a 2.5 year old Labrador. She was bitten by a brown snake and almost died. After several doses of anti-venom and a course of other medication, Bobbie was on the road to recovery.

Bobbie's human contacted me because she wanted to do all she could to help Bobbie live a long, healthy and happy life. She wanted help with Bobbie's recovery, some guidance on weight management and how to best feed her for longevity.

From our initial chat, I determined that we needed to devise strategies for supporting Bobbie's digestive health, detoxification and for ongoing support. I also thought that energy healing would be beneficial because her human told me she can be a bit sooky and over-attached.

We are now in the process of supporting Bobbie with my 3 month Be Well Program. She is going really well, having transitioned to a fully raw diet.

Her human was surprised that the cost of the new diet was on par with the processed diet she was eating previously.

Physically, she looks so much better, and she's lost some weight. Her other symptoms of itching and panting have decreased. She's also drinking less - stopping dried kibble and feeding fresh moist food will do this 🙌🏼

Her digestive system is working well (consistent firm stools and significantly less gas) and the new diet has meant less smelly poos 💩 Win!

She's recently started on a range of supportive supplements. Judging by her response so far, I imagine by the end of the program in about 8 weeks, she'll be like a brand new dog, fully recovered from the snake bite and in her best state of health 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Guess what we’re going to be talking about this week on The Natural Animal podcast….? 🌿

Are you playing out your trauma with your animal? 🤔

We and our companion animals are vibrational. Another word to describe vibrational is energetic.

There is a vibration or an energetic frequency that exists within us individually and together.

This vibration can impact health and wellbeing.

If you carry unresolved emotions from the past, this can effect your vibration / energetic frequency, your health and wellbeing.

Because of the connection between you and your animal, they pick up on your vibration. This means they can pick up on your unresolved emotions, traumas from the past that you’re still holding onto. They can take on the energy of your unresolved emotions, your trauma. This can impact their health and wellbeing.

Most of us will experience trauma in our lives. Trauma doesn’t have to be something extreme. It occurs when we experience events that are stressful, frightening or distressing. It can be one incident, an ongoing event, or a series of events over a period of time.

It also isn’t just about what happened to you, but also about what DIDN’T happen.

Because you and your animal share an energetic vibration, there is a definite possibility that you are, unconsciously, playing out your trauma with your animal.

🎧 Tune in to this week’s episode of The Natural Animal podcast to explore this further. 🔗 Link in bio.

Did you have an animal that you were close to when you were a child? Or perhaps you weren’t that close to them, but in hindsight, you can see that you had a special bond with them?

In this week’s episode of The Natural Animal, my guest Jacqueline Lee shares about the connections she had with cats when she was a child. There was a particular cat, Cindy, that would sit on her lap while she played the organ (see pic), as though she loved the healing vibration of the music. She doesn’t recall feeling a significant connection with Cindy, but Cindy slept with her and was often in her space, supporting her. Cindy was the only one that Jacqueline let in, because Jacqueline trusted her 💗

Research suggests that, just like with adults, children attachment to pets (especially dogs and cats) can provide social support and may contribute to a wide range of physical and psychological benefits including support with trauma recovery.

In addition to the physical and psychological benefits that companion animals can have on children, there’s a humane education focus on the human animal bond. It involves showing kids how to be stewards of our planet, helping them grasp the idea that all living beings rely on each other, and encouraging them to show their ‘duty of care’ by treating everyone, whether human, animal, or the environment, with respect and kindness.

NEW BLOG POST!

How are your pet’s vitamin and mineral levels? A vitamin or mineral imbalance can cause illness so making sure your animal is getting the nutrients they need in their diet by way vitamins and minerals is super duper important.

I’ve written a 2-part blog series on this. Check it out now 🙌🏼

Part 1 of a 2-part blog series What if you could resolve your animal’s health issue by ensuring that they’re getting the nutrients they need? There are two categories of nutrients - macronutrients and micronutrients. Macronutrients are protein, carbohydrates and fats. Micronutrients are vitamins...

Some of the gorgeous animals I helped out in Feb:

Willow has chronic skin issues (itching, rash, hives etc) and possible dietary intolerances. Some anxious behaviours too. She’s underway with her new diet (moving her away from hypoallergenic kibble to real food) and she’ll soon be starting her supplements.

Peach has atopic dermatitis. She gets intermittent red, inflamed, itchy skin with hot spots, with symptoms first showing after her first round of vaccinations. She has recurrent ear infections, some food intolerances, inconsistent stools alternating between constipation and diarrhoea, and anxious behaviours. She was eating a combo diet of fresh food and kibble. We’ve got her off the kibble and enjoying a new healthier, wholesome diet with supportive supplements.

Daisy recently injured her left hind knee. Her right front leg is also inflamed due to compensation for the hind leg. I’m helping Daisy with some weekly energy healing sessions to aid her recovery and help allay some of the fear and anxiousness she is experiencing.

Rudi got stung by a bee and went into anaphylactic shock. I supported him with some energy healing to aid his recovery. He was back to 100% a couple of days later.

Daisy & Ethel are two sweet kitten girls. Their humans want to ensure they feed them the healthiest diet possible and so I prepared a personalised kitten wellness plan for them.

Gypsea is a return patient - he’s been displaying some out of the ordinary aggressive behaviours. His human has had it tough of late so it’s likely that his aggression is in response to that. I’m supporting both with bespoke flower essences.

Abby is a return patient. She suffers with ongoing dental issues (prevalent in her bloodline) and is going in for a clean later this month. Her human reached out for my recommendations on how to support Abby pre and post surgery.

Skippy is a return patient with kidney disease and anxious behaviours. We had a check in following some recent bloods that have shown improvements and steadying of his kidney parameters - yay! I’m continuing to support Skippy with bespoke herbal medicine etc.

Essential oils are dangerous for cats, right? If you just rely on what Google tells you, you’ll probably hold this view. But don’t believe everything you read on Google. Essential oils can be dangerous for cats, in the same way that any drug can. There are reasons for this which I explain in part in this little vid. Want full and instant access?

Well here’s some good news!

Jacky’s wellness program started in December. He came to me with a history of chronic recurring diarrhoea, excessive gas, grumbly stomach and a**l gland blockages. He had been diagnosed with IBS / gastritis. He also had a history of chronic ear infections. When we started Jacky’s wellness program, his digestive symptoms were presenting as:

• a gurgling stomach / bowels in the morning and when he goes to p**p

• first p**p of the day with blood / mucous, approximately every three days

Energetically, he presented with predominantly an excess of moisture in his constitution / tissues.

👩🏼‍🤝‍👨🏽Jacky’s humans were clear on their goal - for Jacky to heal and no longer by symptomatic 💯

The plan I created for Jacky, focussed on ensuring his diet contained optimum nutrition and that his digestive, immune and nervous systems were supported, simultaneously with his whole body.

He had already been on an elimination diet of sorts. I made some adjustments to that and Jacky’s humans persisted with this diet for the necessary period. We got a sensitivity test done, which revealed some intolerances. The diet was adjusted again to remove the one intolerant food that was still part of his diet.

We had a check in late January and I provided him with a new diet plan that allowed for the reintroduction of foods. Which brings us to the win!

🌟🌟🌟

He’s halfway through transitioning to a new diet. He seems very happy and he hasn’t had any of the digestive symptoms that he was having. Plus his faeces have improved. Yay!

In addition to dietary support, I’m also supporting Jacky with a Bespoke Herbal 🌿 This consists of a personalised selection of herbs designed to support and heal the gut, manage inflammation and support his nervous system. He also has one of my detox remedies for free as part of the wellness program.

🫶🏼With the right support and pet parent dedication to following my recommendations, animals can heal and thrive 🙌🏼

💁🏼‍♀️ If you’d like to know more about my wellness programs and how I can help your animal with their health challenges, send me a msg or book in a complimentary initial chat with me.

Energy healing for this beauty today. She’s got some issues with left knee (hind leg), client not 100% sure what’s going on. So we worked on her lower chakras, including her knee chakras and the knee itself. She’s also got some kidney and liver challenges so I incorporated healing for those centres as well. Now for integration to allow the healing energies to have greatest effect. Such a blessing to share energy with her today 🌸🌻🌸

Beyond the surface of every being lies a depth that the human eye does not easily see.

No matter, human, animal or plant, there is a connection to deeper spiritual and energetic realms.

We can witness this from a space of pure heart energy.

It is here that we can connect soul to soul with other beings.

There lies a profound soul connection between you and your animal companion.

You don’t experience this with your eyes. You experience it with your heart. With your soul.

In that moment, when you drop into your heart, and your souls intertwine, you will sense that deep everlasting connection. It is beyond words. It is beyond human experience, because it is not human. It is spirit. It is soul. It is love. It is light. It is divine essence.

Can you feel it?

Is raw food good for dogs and cats? 🤔
The other day I got asked a question along these lines. The actual question was “what are your thoughts about raw dog food from an animal naturopath perspective?”

My thoughts are these:

• Yes, raw food is great!
• Raw food is a dog’s and cat’s natural diet. It’s what they’ve eaten as a species for the longest period of time. They are designed to eat raw - right through from their anatomy to their gut bacteria and juices.
• Raw food provides optimal nutrition. There is no destruction of nutrients when you feed raw, like there is when you feed highly processed foods.
• A raw diet provides a host of benefits, the first that will always be visible to the human eye - softer, thicker coat, shinier eyes, healthy skin, and smaller firmer and less smelly p**ps.
• Raw foods have a higher moisture content, which is important for healthy hydration levels.
• Raw foods contain naturally occurring vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, enzymes, and essential fatty acids - nutrients that help to prevent disease and increase longevity.

Perhaps you’ve tried feeding your pet a raw diet but they didn’t take to it, or you were worried they weren’t getting all the nutrients they need.

Raw feeding isn’t about just serving up some minced meat and a few veg. It’s more complex than that. And yet, it is not difficult once you know what you’re doing. It also won’t take up hours and hours of your precious time. There are ways that you can simplify raw feeding so that it’s sustainable whilst providing your precious fur babe what they need to thrive.

When it comes to the work I do helping pet parents, I spend my time helping clients with health issues, that are often quite serious. That doesn’t leave much time for teaching people how to feed their healthy animals a raw diet. But that’s ok, because I can teach you this without a consult.

I created The Real Food Diet for Dogs and Cats eBooks to teach pet parents the why’s and how’s of feeding an optimally healthy real food diet. The eBooks are included as a free gift in my private one month and three month wellness programs but they’re also available for purchase outside of a program. You can grab your copy via my website (you’ll find it in the Holistic Animal Wellness Library 🙌🏼)

Making the first bespoke herbals for animals for 2024! This here 👆🏼are all the herbs that I’m using in one 500ml formula. Pretty, right? 🌸

I use a traditional method to craft herbals which involves soaking dried herbs in a glycerine suspension blend (called a menstruum). After I select, measure, blend, and combine the herbs with the menstruum, they infuse in a cool, dark cupboard for about 2 weeks. I shake them daily to ensure proper infusion. I also infuse them daily with healing energies. Throughout the infusion process, the medicinal benefits of the herbs are being extracted into the menstruum. Once infused, I strain, bottle, label, infuse them with healing energies, and activate them. They’re now ready to be packed and posted.

This differs to commercial methods that involve ready-made mass produced bottled extracts.

It’s a time-intensive hands on process, but I love preparing herbs this way 😍 I find it much more satisfying than just pouring commercially made herbal extracts into a bottle. This way, I get to select the finest quality herbs (only ever organic or wildcrafted) and support the infusion process with healing energies. I love smelling the herbs as I measure them out 🤗

I avoid using alcohol in my herbals for better palatability, and as I believe it’s not beneficial (or natural) for animals, especially when they have health issues. It means a shorter shelf life (and sometimes a “weaker” medicine necessitating a larger dose) but these herbals are immediate use and for a specific period.

Each herb has multiple benefits, with many that are backed by science. Combining herbs creates synergy, which can have greater benefit. For example, some herbs, like Licorice, are considered ‘bioenhancer’ herbs because they support a better assimilation of other herbs, foods or supplements. Herbal remedies can be used alternatively to, or in conjunction with, pharmaceuticals.

If you’re curious about using herbs for your animals, I’d love to hear from you. If you’d like to learn the ins and outs of herbs, and all the ways they can help animals, check out my course The Herbal Sessions on my website.

Welcome to the last episode for season 1! In this week’s episode we do a little season recap then we move into answering some listener questions on fasting, travelling with pets, feeding pets fish, and why some dogs go grey and others don’t. Here’s a little snippet of the show where I answer the question: “Why does fasting support pet health and wellbeing and how to introduce fasting.. especially when you have a dog with a big appetite!” Enjoy! 🔗 Link in bio to the full episode 🙌🏼 #thenaturalanimalpodcast #petpodcast #animalpodcast #fastingpets #pethealth #holisticpetcare #animalloversofinstagram #petparenting #petdiet #dogdiet #catdiet

When your animal passes, this doesn’t mean they are gone from you forever. Animals have a purpose and a soul journey, just like we do. Their purpose and their journey continues after they leave physical form. Our souls have an agreement for THIS lifetime together. That agreement can extend past that time when an animal crosses over the rainbow bridge. It can extend across multiple lifetimes. This means that our connection with our animals who have passed can remain. They can continue to have a presence in our life. It’s just something other than physical. Sometimes they can come back to us in physical form. But that will depend on their soul purpose, and our soul agreements. Clare and I discuss all of this and more in the latest episode of The Natural Animal Podcast “Animal Soul Journeys” (link in bio). This is one of two occasions when I have spoken publicly about the passing of my heart animal, Lilly. The other was in the episode with Jenni Madison “Returning Home With Interspecies Communication” (episode #9). These two episodes in particular are like medicine for the soul. May they warm your heart and centre your being xx #animalloverofinstagram #rainbowbridgedogs #rainbowbridgecats #rainbowbridgepet #animalsouls #souljourneys #soulcontracts #animalsoulcontracts #foreverfriend #foreverloved

Animals are here for themselves, not just for us 💡This is just one of the golden insights ✨ shared in this week’s episode of The Natural Animal Podcast.

Here’s a little sneak peek into how I make my flower essence remedies 👀 I make some general remedies for things like separation anxiety, passing over the rainbow bridge, welcoming new animals into your home, grounding and balancing, detox (emotional and physical) and general relaxation vibes. I also make bespoke flower elixirs which are personalised to match what your animal needs right now. These are vibrational elixirs that help to clear and transmute emotions that are contributing to either a physical or behavioural challenge that your animal is experiencing. An important healing premise of flower essences is that behind virtually all physical disease is emotional imbalance, and each emotion affects a different body part. With each emotion there is a hormonal release. If an emotion is blocked, suppressed, or ignored, or if a physical action (fight/flight/freeze) is not manifested, then the ‘hormones of emotion’ become stuck in the hormone receptor cells. Over time, this process can be repeated and disease can occur. Flower essences can UNBLOCK these unprocessed emotions, therein helping to prevent disease.My flower essence elixirs for animals will soon be sold by @threeraysanimalapothecary where I’m slowly moving over all my existing product line as well as adding some new exciting products. In the meantime, you can still purchase them at ruthhatten.com/shop.🌸 Have you used flower essences with your animals, or even with your self? Did they help? 🌸👩‍🏫 Keen to learn more about flower essences?

My Story

Hi, I'm Ruth Hatten, animal naturopath, healer and plant based coach. I specialise in the health and wellbeing of animals. My ultimate goal in life is to make a difference for all animals, giving them a healthier, happier and longer life.

One way that I help animals is by helping people like you help your furry companions achieve optimum wellness through nutritional therapy and massage therapy. The result is a happier and healthier cat or dog and a happier you.

If your furry companion is suffering from disease, I can assist them in the healing process by stimulating their natural inherent ability to heal. I do this using natural healing modalities, like nutritional therapy and massage therapy. My approach complements conventional veterinary treatment and provides natural alternatives that don't result in adverse side effects.

If your furry companion appears healthy, I can help you ensure that he or she stays that way, naturally, through helping you feed your fur baby a species appropriate diet.
