Mourning the Death of “Animal-Speak” Author Ted Andrews

A peacock once sat outside an upstairs window at Sounds True, peering in the glass, causing all the employees first to wonder where it came from and then begin to question the spiritual significance of the bird’s appearance, asking what it might mean for us as a company. More than superstition, many of us have learned from the number-one authority on understanding and connecting with animal spirits. It is with great sadness that we now mourn the passing of author Ted Andrews, internationally recognized author, teacher, mystic, and master storyteller in the shamanic tradition.  He died on Saturday, October 24, 2009, due to complications from cancer.

In 2007, Sounds True published a 3-CD audio workshop by Ted Andrews, Animal-Speak: Understanding Animal Messengers, Totems, and Signs, filled with teaching stories collected from Andrews’ three decades of presenting this material to students across the globe. Listen to his voice on a sound clip here:  http://bit.ly/2T3OEw

“Ted was truly a mystic who understood the heart of all faiths.” said Anthony Dalessandro, Sounds True national account manager.

Andrews was the author of over 35 books, including the best-selling classics Animal-Speak (Llewellyn, 1993) and Animal Wise (Dragonhawk, 1999). A highly acclaimed speaker and teacher, he conducted sold-out seminars throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Asia.

 

Sounds True Lauches Online Classes

A note from Sounds True Founder and Publisher, Tami Simon:
 
Dear Friend of Sounds True,

As stimulating as a recording or a book can be, there is nothing quite like learning in person from a spiritual teacher. Unfortunately, most of us don’t have as many opportunities as we would like for such direct contact.

Given this situation, it has long been a dream of mine to allow Sounds True listeners to have a live, interactive experience with their favorite authors—asking questions and communicating directly with both teachers and other participants—at a reasonable cost and without having to travel a long way. I am therefore thrilled to announce that Sounds True is launching our first four programs in an online format, with many more to come in 2010.

Here are brief descriptions, but please visit our website for much more about these courses:

• Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés, the bestselling author of Women Who Run With the Wolves, will offer a series launching on October 14, 2009 of six online events on Mother Night: Myths, Stories, and Teachings for Learning to See in the Dark.

• Beginning on October 6, 2009 pioneering psychiatrist in the field of neurobiology Dr. Dan Siegel will team up with meditation teacher Jack Kornfield to offer an online course for healing professionals on Mindfulness and the Brain. Please note that continuing education credits are also available for this online course for therapists, social workers, and other healing professionals.

• As we all know, it is one thing to talk about committing to a daily spiritual practice and another thing to actually follow through on that inspiration. To support people who are interested in developing a spiritual discipline, in January of 2010, Sounds True will launch two new in-depth online training programs—Centering Prayer with Trappist monk Father Thomas Keating, and Insight Meditation with the cofounders of the Insight Meditation Society, Joseph Goldstein and Sharon Salzberg.

In recent days, I have heard more and more people talk about how beneficial it is to work in close community with like-minded allies, exchanging ideas and insights in order to thrive during the challenging times in which we live. With these new online events and courses, Sounds True is bringing our authors and listeners together for just such exchanges.

We hope you will join us
