Want to care for your animal in a way that brings them health and happiness at all levels of their being?
That ensures their innate needs and desires are being nurtured, and that supports them to live their best life?
WITHOUT BEING SWAYED BY ALL THE CONFLICTING INFORMATION THAT LEAVES YOU FEELING DISEMPOWERED AND STUCK?
Yes?
To the animal lovers who desire to care for their animals in a holistic and natural way...
I see how much you love your animal and how desperately you want them to live a happy and healthy life. I know it can be tough at times because:
-
There is so much conflicting information out there.
-
Everywhere you turn, there’s something different to try.
-
You're left not knowing what's best for your animal.
-
You've sought out support, which has left you feeling disempowered and intimidated.
-
You're at a loss for where to turn to get the support and guidance you're after.
In order for you to care for your animal in the way you crave, you need to have guidance you can trust plus workable strategies so that you can support your animal - now and into the future - in the ways they need (and deserve!) for optimised health and wellbeing.
Guidance that is steeped in experience and that comes from a place of compassion.
Strategies that encompass animal care from all perspectives - the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual - because for your animal to be the happiest and healthiest version of themself, they need to be nurtured at all aspects of their being.
Strategies that are sustainable - you can incorporate them into your life with ease, once you have the support and guidance on how to do that.
But the reality is...
Advertising, social media, the internet, practitioners - they can all be sources of information that are misguided or even misleading. Add to that, they'll never know your animal the way you do.
​
You're not disillusioned - something inside you questions the information that you’re being given. It all seems so narrow focussed and centered around processed food, medications, artificial ingredients.
This concerns you because you’re worried about the negative impacts on your animal long term.
You find yourself thinking, “surely my animal would be better off with real food, natural products and less medication?”.
To be honest, you’re fed up with the fake foods, the drugs, the synthetics, the one size fits all, and the “I know best, do what I say” approach. You’re looking for something else...
​
All you want is for your animal to be healthy and happy, and to express their true nature.
Surely there’s someone who can help you get clarity on what the next step is to nurture your animal in a holistic way?
​
There is, and this is why I created this new offering for you...
HOLISTIC ANIMAL CARE

This is where you'll receive guidance and workable strategies on holistic animal care. Ruth calls out the BS and helps you to care for your animals holistically so they can live their happiest, healthiest, bestest life.
This workshop series has been created for you...
Because I know what it’s like to be bombarded with conflicting information when it comes to pet care, and to feel stuck in moving forward, or to be intimidated into doing something that deep down, you know, isn't the best thing for your animal.
​
I've had healthy pets, and I've had pets with health issues.
​
I've been swayed by misleading advertising that foods are healthy, natural and that will meet my animal's needs (when in fact they were far from it).
I've been told that unless I give my animal veterinary medications, they will get seriously ill and could die (when there were other, safer options we could try).
​
I'm pretty sure I've been told the same things that you've been told when it comes to looking after your animals. It's frustrating and unhelpful.
​
And I KNOW I've had clients who've felt the same way you do...
​
​
"I had been reading so much, up most the night trying to work this out. So it was good to have Ruth to help put this into perspective for me. I felt that I was talking to someone with a common love and understanding of what it's like to truly love and want the best for your furbaby at every stage of their life."
- Fiona Zimmerlie-Clarke
​
And this is why I have created the Holistic Animal Care Workshop Series.
​
For the past 8 years, I’ve helped animal lovers learn new ways of caring for their animals holistically, and naturally. Ways that draw on natural feeding principles, safe natural remedies, disease prevention, mental enrichment, energy hygiene, emotional wellbeing, and human animal connection.
So that animal lovers can nurture their animals in a way that optimises their animal’s health - body mind and soul, increases their vitality, helps their animal to heal, supports their animal in preventing disease, brings their animal joy and allows their animal to express their natural self.
Here's the 4-step framework that Ruth takes her clients through:
PHYSICAL WELLBEING
We look at your animal’s diet to see where improvements can be made to shift their diet over to a natural, species appropriate diet.
We also assess their toxic load and offer strategies for reducing it. And we explore natural remedies that can help nourish and support your animal’s physical body.
MENTAL WELLBEING
We assess this aspect by exploring your animal’s level of mental enrichment - are they mentally stimulated and satisfied in a way that aligns with their innate needs and desires?
​
​
​
​
EMOTIONAL WELLBEING
Are your animal’s emotional needs being met? Are they feeling all the feels they deserve to feel, like, safety, joy, peace, love. Or are they overwhelmed with feelings of fear, loneliness, grief, frustration, irritability and so on?
​
​
SPIRITUAL WELLBEING
What is your animal’s energy hygiene like? Are they holding onto dense energy that is interfering with their health and wellbeing? Are you connecting at a heart and soul level?

Hi, I'm Ruth
I'm an animal naturopath, pet nutritionist and energy worker. Since 2015, I've been helping animal lovers nurture their animals in natural and holistic ways that support their whole being - body, mind and soul.
I know that I've experienced similar to what you've experienced when it comes to caring for animals. I know how frustrating it can be when we can't access the support and guidance that we're after. When everything is shrouded in quick fixes and driven by profit. When "solutions" given, just end up making our animals SICKER.
​
That's why I'm committed to helping animal lovers care for their animals holistically.
​
My approach focuses around providing strategies to help animals build strong health foundations, improve their overall health and wellbeing, and set them on the path to healing.
It's also about supporting the humans - helping them to understand their 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, and live their best life.
"I'm always looking to educate myself on good nutrition for my furbaby, and this has been fantastic to really increase that knowledge."

"All workshops were the same value to me but the meditation last week was magickal."

"The Series is awesome. Answered a lot of questions I’ve had for many years and helpful to assist me getting away from commercial health providers that rely on quick fix remedies. So pleased you’re in my life Ruth. Thank you. Your attention to detail is very evident and appreciated. Save me so much time that I will never have to look for this guidance"
​
- BRADLEY
"Just wanted to let you know I am enjoying the workshops. I have been in the world of low tox / alternative care for my family and pups for many years so it is nice to have reinforcement of things I already know and a few new takeaways each workshop. I love the additional bonus handouts for each workshop too. Thanks again for this workshop series and all you do xx"

Got questions?
YOU SHOULD FIND THE ANSWERS HERE...
-
When does the course start?The course is self-paced so you will have immediate access to start it whenever you're inspired to. You will get immediate access to all of the course materials, for you to travel through at your own pace, as soon as you enrol.
-
When do enrolments close?Enrolments for the 2022 live round closed on 28 August 2022. Enrolments never close for the self-paced version.
-
How long is the course?When the course was delivered live, it ran for six weeks. If doing the self paced version, the course length will depend on how quickly you move through the course. Ideally, you'll be able to work through one module per week, taking seven weeks to complete the course. Of course, you can always work through the course content at a faster pace.
-
How will the course be delivered?The course is delivered via the online course portal. Here you can access the video/audio lessons, workbooks and course bonuses.
-
When will I receive the bonuses?The relevant course bonuses will be available in the online course portal from when you sign up.
-
My life is pretty busy, how long will I need to set aside each week to do the course?That depends on how quickly you would like to work through the course. If you'd like to complete the course in six weeks, it's recommended that you set aside 2 to 2.5 hours each week. This should give you plenty of time to watch the video lessons (which are approximately 30 minutes to 1 hour in length) and read the related workbook for that week's content.
-
Do I get support and mentoring?As this course is self-paced there is no support and mentoring, apart from what is included in the course materials. If you would like additional support, you can book a short consult here.
-
How long do I get access to the course?You will have lifetime access to the course.
-
What if I enrol and then decide this course is not for me?If you're not sure that this course is right for you, please reach out to ask any questions that you may have prior to enrolling. Refunds are not available for the self-paced version of the course because you are given access to all of the course material upon enrolment.
-
It sounds like there's a lot included in the course - will I be overwhelmed with the course content?You're certainly going to learn a lot during the course! But don't worry, Ruth explains everything in easy to understand terms. If you would like additional support, you can book a short consult with Ruth here.
"I love how Ruth respects animals as well as their companion humans!
It's supportive but you also know it's based on excellent knowledge and experience. The session was extremely helpful; it left me feeling very confident."
