The Path of the Paws
Spirit Animals, Daily Guidance
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Draw your spirit animal each morning and receive its message, a guided meditation, a shamanic drum journey and a journal prompt, all written by hand by Shamanic Practitioner and NLP trainer Carolin Mallmann. Now on Apple Watch.
A spirit animal at your side. A different companion each day, and each brings a message that belongs to this day alone.
The Path of the Paws is a quiet space for mindfulness, self-reflection and shamanic wisdom. Every text comes from Carolin's own practice: original meditations, drum journeys and NLP coaching exercises. Nothing generated, nothing off the shelf. And it is not a fortune-telling app: no predictions, only an invitation to listen inward.
YOUR SPIRIT ANIMAL FOR TODAY
Each morning a new spirit animal draws near. Every one of the 70+ animals carries 8 individually written ways to go deeper: meditation and drum journey, affirmations and breathing exercises, NLP coaching questions and journal prompts, mindfulness and dream interpretation.
NEW: ON YOUR APPLE WATCH
Your spirit animal walks with you on your wrist, the same one as on your iPhone. Breathe with a golden lotus and gentle taps, or go on a shamanic drum journey of up to 30 minutes with a call-back signal at the end. Reach your daily steps and your animal brings you something it found. Log your mood or dictate a thought into your journal. On your watch face it greets you in the morning and leaves you a question in the evening.
GUIDED NLP COACHING
Interactive, step-by-step exercises from real NLP practice. Anchor an inner resource with your spirit animal, or turn a heavy thought with a guided perspective shift. Save what you found straight to your journal.
YOUR SEVEN INNER SPIRIT ANIMALS
In shamanism you carry not one animal, but several. A short, intuitive journey reveals your seven: your Core, Feeling, Meeting, Shadow, Healing, Guiding and Calling animal. All it takes is your first feeling. If you add your birth details, your seven come from the sky of your birth.
YOUR COMPANIONS & YOUR WEEKLY REVIEW
Every animal that has walked a day with you gathers in your own collection. Every Sunday you look back on your week: which spirit animals walked with you, how you felt and which sentence stayed with you. If you like, share your week as an image.
YOUR LIFE-CHAPTER SPIRIT ANIMAL
Which animal belongs to this chapter of your life? Five quiet questions lead you there. No right, no wrong.
YOUR PRIVATE JOURNAL
What you write stays with you. Reflect and edit your entries anytime.
MOON & NATURE CALENDAR
Real astronomical moon phases, a moon spirit animal for every day and a gentle ritual impulse. "What's coming" shows the next 90 days at a glance. If you wish, the app reaches you quietly on the morning of a full or new moon.
WIDGETS
Your spirit animal of the day lives on your Home and Lock Screen and on your watch face.
YOUR SOUND MIXER
Create your own soundscape from nature, singing bowls and instruments such as piano, handpan, harp and kalimba, and save your favourite mixes. Seven ready-made soundscapes are included. Everything keeps playing when you put your phone down.
Take a quiet moment. Your spirit animal is waiting for you.
