Laura Cook I am a Bod yTalk practitioner, working distantly from Smithers and I travel to clinics in Terrace, Prince George, Vancouver, and Toronto. I specialize in allerg ies and am passionate about incr easing my knowledge by openly communicating and sharing with other practitioners and systems of healing.
For my hour, I interviewed fellow BodyTalk practitioner and local Bulkley Valley veterinarian Dr. Kim Hunter. We chatted about what we have seen and why we love the work. We were lucky enough to have a caller and with Matt’ s expertise we got her on the air. Nicole asked questions to Dr. Hunter and I did some distant tapping work on Katie( her dog). We have since received updates from the owner. Her dog was behaving quite differently, she had accepted and played with their adopted dog, and seemed to have“ forgiven” her owners, and was up on the couch being more cuddly than ever before. Katie is listening better and seems to be much happier!

Some friends called the studio when I was on air— it was great that they could listen real-time and give me feedbac k. My sister in Rossland streamed the show online and also gave feedback via Facebook. The wonders of social media, eh?
The second hour I did w as with a friend and
