Thank you Justine & Michael 💚

We've become so reliant on our words - we've allowed language to get in the way - we've forgotten that there are so many ways to communicate.

Animals, especially horses, understand our intentions and are able to communicate with us without needing to use words.

After a series of strokes, Gary was left unable to speak. But this didn't stop him from communicating. Through his relationship with his horses, we learn that we are more than just our words!

"Animals have so much to teach us about true communication, if only we were willing to listen." - Lisa Smith

The Secret to Emotional Freedom? Feel Everything

$Love Conquers All: The Secret to Unbreakable Strength Support us in creating more films like this : http://www.patreon.com/reflectionsoflife Thank you Justine & Michael 💚 Love, the ultimate energy on this planet, conquers all. Every religion, each culture and ultimately each species can be peeled back layer by layer to its core of love. What an honour it is to step into this consciousness and intentionally contribute to the energy of the world. In times of uncertainty the lightworkers must step forward. That is you. Bring your light into each moment, with each person, every day. With your family, your friends, strangers, the cashier, the waiter. Each fraction of loving energy you bring out into the world matters. It’s simple, it’s profound and it matters the most.

We are Justine and Michael (previously known as Green Renaissance). We use our passion for filmmaking and our love of storytelling, to remind our audience of one simple truth – that we are all human. The more that we understand and believe in this interconnectedness, the more we will treat ourselves, one another, and planet earth with a greater sense of compassion. Filming - by Michael Raimondo Editing - by Justine du Toit Sound mix - by Tamryn Breakey In collaboration with iNous, we recently released a beautiful deck of 52 cards - each card containing a quote from one of our films, paired with the activating visual muses of Lanon Prigge. The aim of this deck is to rekindle child-like curiosity and creativity, helping to navigate the shared waters of our human experience with grace and joy.
