“Put your heart in your hands & your hands on the animal.” – Linda Tellington-Jones
The Tellington TTouch®Method was developed over four decades ago by internationally acclaimed teacher, trainer, and author Linda Tellington – Jones, PhD (Hon) and taught extensively across the world by her sister Robyn Hood.

TTouch promotes well-being through reduction of stress, and influences positive behavioral changes.
The Bodywork component of TTouch involves a unique type of circular touch and slides of varying light pressure, that affects the fascia thereby influencing the nervous system and activating neural pathways. TTouch makes a connection to the limbic system and to the emotions. It can be said that TTouch reminds the body of its perfect function prior to dysfunctional tension patterns and postural habits that result from injury, poor handling, and simply life.
Through Groundwork in the “Playground for Higher Learning”, the animal is encouraged to move mindfully in non-habitual ways, which improves balance, self-confidence, and focus. It helps the human and dog build more mindful, intentional communication.
In this work, some of the equipment used with companion animals include Body wraps that serve to gently bring back spatial awareness to the body by influencing the nervous system, and the TTouch Harmony Harness & Leash system along with the TTouch Connector which encourages stress-free walking without the dog pulling on the leash or exerting excessive strain on the back and shoulders.

All my life, I have been a passionate student of science which led to a Doctorate degree in molecular biology. But there was also another part of me that was curious and wondered about the “things that I couldn’t see, but could feel.” After a few unexpected twists and turns, I began exploring life as an animal communicator (https://gaia-mitra.com), helping people connect better with their companion animals. A part of me always wondered why I spent decades in academic learning of science. Life, in its infinite wisdom, introduced me to Tellington TTouch® in 2015. I was fascinated and in 2021 I finally got the opportunity to begin learning this amazing method formally under Robyn Hood. To me, it was the place where Science melded with Spirit.
And in May 2024, I became the first Indian Tellington TTouch® Practitioner for Dogs and Companion animals. I am grateful and excited to offer TTouch, a novel and kind way to work with you companion animal.

Walking on Harmony Harness and Connector
At the moment, I am working with clients in their homes. Session duration will be upto an hour with breaks in between as per the dog/cat’s needs. A session is customized to a cat/dog’s specific needs. An adult guardian must be present and there will be some take-aways shared for future reference. The guardian will also be shown some TTouches that they can practice with their companion animal.
