My mission is inspired by PAWS! They are my guides who mirrored for me the importance of PAUSING often, LISTENING deeply, and TRUSTING my intuition in order to live a life that is in alignment with my true self, nature, and all beings. This created a healing vibration that allowed my animal companions to settle into a space of PEACE and HEALING too.

Welcome!

My name is Barbara Techel, but you can call me Barb. I’m an Intuitive Guide & Oracle Reader for Animals & People, Artist, creator of the Animal Reflections Healing Oracle deck, and author of three nonfiction books and two children’s books about the heart-expanding & life-changing wisdom I’ve gained from the animal world.

As a highly sensitive person (hsp), I came to realize that when we do the important inner work and lovingly explore our tender wounds alongside stepping into our gifts, not only does it create more peace within ourselves, but it greatly benefits the animal companions we share our lives with creating a more harmonious external and internal environment. 

Through my Intuitive Guidance & Oracle Reading Sessions I hold compassionate space for:

  • Animals and People– a space to gain helpful perspective of your animal companion when going through a challenging situation such as physical or behavioral issues, and how this may be mirroring a shared healing opportunity for both of you.
  • People – a dedicated, sacred time to connect with Your Wise Inner Self to align with their True Essence no matter what challenge you are going through.

Shining a light on what you are feeling so you can truly see is one of the most empowering things you can do for yourself and your animal friends!

To learn more about my intuitive oracle readings, animal-themed oracle deck, books, animal art, and free gifts, feel free to check out all my offerings here. To stay connected I’d welcome you to join my Substack community below.

XO,

Barb

LET’S STAY IN TOUCH!

Receive insightful reflections and updates from Joyful Pause Cottage studio – my 10 x 12 olive green studio – a labor of love built by my husband to support my dreams. It sits off the southeast corner of our deck where I offer intuitive guidance and oracle readings for animals and people via zoom, create art, write, and ponder all the many facets of life.

It is always my hope to be an inspiration and a beacon of light so that we can all live inspired lives, create a positive vibrational ripple, and shine brightly!
