Trust me. I am no expert on this subject. The very thought of writing an article on trust left me cold - to the point where I delayed the deadline for 3 months. My resistance around this subject, however, that told me that this was probably an area worth exploring - both professionally and on a deeply personal level. Trust. Respect. Honesty. These words are banded around so regularly it is easy to loose touch with what they really mean on a day-to-day, moment-to-moment basis. It is how these values play out in our non verbal dialogue with ourselves and others that I am interested in. It’s the subtle moments. The flick of the eyes, the touch of the face, the shift of the feet, the misplaced smile. |
Nothing happens in the inter-relational space, without it first happening intra-relationally. You cannot build trust-based relationships externally without first cultivating self trust - do I trust myself to listen to my true feelings? Do I trust that I will take the time to recognise my needs? Do I trust that I will respect my needs and my ‘self’? Can I make mistakes and practice self-empathy? Can I trust myself to speak my truth? But wait a minute. Who is this I? Who is the self? This very expression suggests there are two of us. The I and the self. The ego and our true being. When I make a commitment to self-care, self-respect and self-love and follow through with it, I build my own self trust. These are no small tasks and require a high degree of emotional intelligence, maturity and skill. Click here for the full article

Trust relationships are important in any business, and especially in such as working with animals.

When there is a trusting relationship between you and the animals, you will feel much more confident and the result of training will be terrific.

without trust, no union is possible, I am sure that absolutely everything good or bad is based on the presence or absence of trust
