A dog-folk trainer warns caregivers not to say, “What did you do?” after coming home to damage or mess caused by their dog companion while they were away. He explains that dog-folks only connect correction or reward with behavior in the moment, so reacting angrily long after the damage is done can leave the dog-individual confused and may quickly teach them that their caregiver is unpredictable, rather than helping them understand what they did wrong. He says the so-called “guilty look” is usually not guilt, but confusion about the caregiver’s reaction. The trainer adds that destructive behavior often points to unmet needs, such as too little exercise or not being taught how to stay calm when left alone (Daily Express)

US NASA [National Aeronautics and Space Administration] announces details of its first three Moon Base missions, aimed at preparing for a semi-permanent human presence near the Moon’s south pole.

Previously, in Parts 1 through 3 of Dr. Deborah King’s near-death experience, Deborah went into full cardiac arrest, found herself in a black void, and then entered a vast web of living Light. A Divine presence guided her through a life review, where she saw moments from her own life and then scenes from the lives of other souls. Then two Lights came close to Deborah. The first was the intensive care unit [ICU] patient she had helped save decades earlier. He told her their experience was not an accident and that it was time for her to share what had happened — but Deborah realized that meant going back, and she insisted she wanted to stay.

Now, as Deborah wrestles with that message, the first Light fades — and the second Light comes forward. And I recognized that energy and that configuration of Light immediately as my beloved father. And I was just overjoyed to be in his presence. I just put that encounter with my patient out of my mind, and I was just so, I mean, I embraced him spiritually, and I was like, “Dad, it’s you! It’s really you!” And he said, “Yep, it’s me. I didn’t really go anywhere.” And I thought, “What does he mean, he didn’t really go anywhere?” And he said, “Well, I left my physical body, but that’s really it.” He said, “My spirit never left you, and I’m here, and I will never leave you.” And I thought, “Well, how is that possible?” I wanted to believe it. And he said, “You can’t leave this place, either. Even if you go back to do this work, which you really need to do, and share your story, you can’t leave this place, because it’s not out here, it’s in here.” And that made some sense to me. And I didn’t understand it fully, but I trusted what my father was telling me. And he said, “I’ll never leave you. It’s impossible. I never have. And this place where you are — it’s inside you. You’re seeing it. You’re experiencing it.” But the message I was getting was that this is the soul. This is you. This is part of all of us. And I accepted it.

And at that moment of surrender and acceptance of what my father was telling me, the next thing I saw was looking — I was looking down at the ICU bed. That’s how quick it happened. Just boom. And I was like, “Oh, whoa, gee.” It’s like I was catapulted back, looking down at my body. And looking at the equipment from the top, which was kind of strange for me as a former ICU nurse, because you look up at it, you don’t usually look down. And I thought, “Oh, that’s not really good.” This body is in bad shape. Her eyes are taped closed. I mean, I knew it was me. She’s kind of bloated. She’s on a ventilator. And then I kind of chuckled, thinking, “Well, listen. Don’t worry, because you’re not going to fit in that body anyway.” I was aware that I felt so expanded in spirit, and so large, and so limitless, that I just couldn’t fit in that human body.

And at that moment, of just kind of having that, “OK, don’t worry about it, Deb, you’re not going to go back in there.” Next thing I know, I was in my body. I would say I kind of felt like I entered from my head. I’m not sure, but it almost felt like a suction. Like I was just back in there. And, oh, I was not happy at all. I felt tremendous confinement. I felt tight. I had pain. I was aware of pain, probably from long having endured CPR [cardiopulmonary resuscitation] for a long period of time and being shocked multiple times. And I remember thinking, “OK, I don’t like this. I’ve got to get out of here.” I felt fear. For the first time in the whole experience, I felt fear. And the fear was — wow, I can’t get out of here. It’s kind of like I felt like I was a prisoner, almost. I can’t get out of here, and I’m never going to be able to go back there. And then I remembered my father’s words: “You can never leave this place.” And it gave me some temporary respite. But the next thing I know, I had pulled out my IVs [intravenous lines], I had pulled out my breathing tube; the alarms were going off; the team came running. “Deborah, Deborah, are you OK?” And I’m thinking, “Well, of course. Of course, I’m OK. I’m, like, better than I ever have been.” I mean, I wasn’t. But I really felt much better than my physical body would have led anyone to believe.

When Deborah thinks about the greatest lesson she brought back, she says it comes down to one thing: connection. It’s so hard to find one, but if I had to, I would say it is the connection — that we are all, we really are all connected. That there is no “me.” There’s only “we.” There is no separation. That we really are what we do, what we think. Every thought has a consequence, every action has a consequence, and we are all connected in invisible, but very powerful, spiritual ways. And that was a lesson I learned from the very beginning to the very end of the experience. And I think, back in my earthly life now, that is something that gets me through a lot of really rough days. It feels wonderful on some days when things are going well, but when things are not going well, and I’m faced with challenges, I remember, “OK, remember what you learned in the Light. Remember that, in this encounter, you are no different than the other. That you may be having a disagreement, and you may be struggling — but we’re struggling together. We’re both connected. We’re all part of the same stuff.” That was the biggest takeaway for me. (Beyond with Heather Tesch)
