반려견에게 사용하는 단어는 생각보다 훨씬 중요합니다

The Words You Use With Your Dog Matter More Than You Think

If at any time in your life you actually spent time as a child, there's a very good chance that you have been hurt by words. And it's not just the meaning, but it's the energy of the words. Now you may have heard people say before that words have this vibrational energy. So, play this game with me if you can. Now, if you're driving, don't close your eyes. Okay. So, I would like you to close your eyes and repeat out loud each word I say and see how that feels in your body. Maybe it won't feel anything, but if you just sit with each word for a moment, what kind of feeling does each word conjure? Okay. So, I'm going to give you pairs of words. I'm going to start with easy ones. Like I'm going to say the word love. What kind of energy does that give you? What about hate? So, I'm saying them in the same tone, in the same cadence. But for me, one of those words, because of the meaning that we've been associating with it potentially has a different energy in my body. Okay. What about the word soft compared to the word hard? Like one definitely has a different feeling than the other. So, words, they have this energy. Even things like the word training compared to the word teaching. To me, the word teaching has a lighter energy for me. So, here are the 15 words. Mindfulness, inspire, happiness, connection, joy, empathy, and humility, belief, confidence, kindness, gratitude, empower, love, grace, and vision. Now, for me, all of those words have such amazing energy, such a positive energy. I think if you would just rehearse, repeat that list every day when you started your day, like you are going to start your day on a solidly good foot, right? And so, you know, you can't just say, oh, here's my 15 words. This is going to make me an amazing dog trainer. Because of course, dog training is about human mechanics. It's about timing and criteria and reinforcement. It's about the ability to manipulate environment and have a really solid plan before you begin. It's about data and record keeping. Those things would be the paint colors of dog training. And those words, those 15 words that I just said, those are the canvas that we're making this amazing connection with our dogs. Now, think of these words. If somebody was teaching you or coaching you on dog training, and they were saying things to you like mindfulness and joy and empathy and belief and humility. And then these other words would be dominate, pressure, firm, correct, alpha. So, they're completely different ways of going about training dogs. Training happens with an intentional environment that we set up.
