She dove into the ocean simply to play with wild dolphins and whales, but emerged a decade later a different person. Hawaii-born author, therapist, and relationship expert Bobbie Merrill takes you on her ten-year journey into the deep and personal world of wild dolphins and whales. It took her almost the entire decade to believe the cetaceans could communicate with her. But once she yielded to the idea that their messages were both deliberate and wise, she discovered the real magic was not in their ability to converse with her, but in the power of what they were saying. As you join Merrill in her journey, filled with moving stories about the wisdom and lives of the magnificent dolphins and whales, you too will discover The source of the renowned magic of dolphins and whales Why these intelligent beings come to our shores to befriend and teach us The hidden and healing power of their kindness and love-and how you can use it to manifest our own dreams and ensure our survival New Information about the devastating impact of sonar warming our ocean and why so many dolphins and whales are stranding themselves on our beaches to die Not Just for Wisdom Seekers, Animal Lovers and Adventurers Compelling Conversations with Dolphins and Whales in the Wild holds tremendous appeal for readers seeking serious personal healing and growth from a book steeped in laughter.
