The Five Elements: Understanding Canine Personalities with Elizabeth from Whidbey Island

In this episode, I had the pleasure of talking to Elizabeth, a healing practitioner based in Whidbey Island, Washington.

Introduced by Suzanne Clothier, Elizabeth shared her captivating journey from her childhood experiences with animal healing to becoming a veterinary technician and embracing alternative medicine. She delves into the fascinating world of Five Element Theory, traditionally a Chinese medicine approach, and how it applies to understanding and supporting canine personalities. Elizabeth explains each element—Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water—detailing the traits, behaviors, and needs of dogs corresponding to each element.

We discuss how recognizing these archetypes can aid in fostering harmonious relationships and improving the well-being of our pets. Elizabeth's book, 'Know Your Dog's True Nature,' breaks down these concepts further, offering insights and practical tips for dog owners. Join us for this enriching conversation to explore the profound connection between nature-centric healing and our loyal companions.
