A real life 'Dr Dolittle' claims that she can talk to animals both dead and alive. Lizzy Adams, 36, says she has communicated with dogs, cows, horses and chipmunks.
The 36-year-old claims that she is an 'animal medium' that often has visions of people's pets that have passed over to the other side. Speaking to Manchester Evening News, she says she discovered her gift when practising reiki on her friend's horse.
She said: “I heard someone say, ‘Well you wouldn’t like it if you were touched there would you?’.
“I turned around to see if anyone was there. It was like someone was speaking in my ear.
"I asked my friend, ‘Does (the horse) not like physio near her bum?’ and the owner told me she hates it. She asked me how I knew.
“I said, ‘This is going to sound really bizarre, but I think she just told me'".
From that moment, Lizzy says the conversations with animals kept happening. She added: "The more I was going out and seeing them, the more I was hearing what they had to say and having visions."
That event was one of the key catalysts in her road to becoming an 'animal medium', which eventually saw her ditch her job as a bar manager to start her own business. Lizzy's journey started years prior when she began suffering from poor mental health.
In 2017 she decided to try out reiki, a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation. Lizzy was so moved by the therapy that she wanted to learn more about the experience.
Upon carrying out further research, she discovered she could use the practice on animals as well as humans – inspiring her try out the therapy on her own dogs. She then moved onto other animals including horses and she can recall the time she performed reiki on another friend’s horse.
Lizzie claims that as she approached the animal, it asked her: “You’re not here to hurt me, are you?”
The owner later told Lizzy the horse had been abused in the past. Lizzy continued:“[She asked] before I even got to her.
“I would see images and have different visions. I would feel different things depending on the animals; they would say words or phrases so I’d pick up on these types of things too.
“I’ve had a gift since I was a child. I was able to see people that had passed over. I created a fear with it because at the age of seven, I didn’t know how to deal with it. I blocked it out.”
L:izzy says knowledge of her gift quickly spread far and wide, and she was soon being contacted by pet owners all over the world. Following the success of her medium services, she now runs her own business, Lizzy Adams Animal Psychic & Meditation Coach.
The animal medium claims that she is not only able to translate the animal’s feelings and solve problems but can also reunite owners with beloved pets beyond the grave. Lizzy, who lives in Dover, remembers the time a client reached out to her for a reiki session with her dog.
Lizzy claims that she was able to see the animal’s memories, including running along a beach with its owner. She said: “It was incredible to know I have this connection.
“I believe I have it because growing up, my life was traumatic and turbulent. I lost faith in people; when you’re growing up as a child you expect adults to be there and protect you from things and that wasn’t the case for me.
“I would go off and spend my days sitting with horses or just being around animals because I felt safer with animals than people. Now I’m able to do that – I can let people know their animals who have passed over are OK.”
