This is a wonderful book on holistic healing. I have a rescue dog which anxiety and aggressive issues when I got him. I tried different types of treatment (training, medication, emotional code clearing, Reiki, Chakra cleansing, etc.) By far, the holistic approach was a better method.

The book is written in from a personal perspective and flows from one story to the next. The author does a great job presenting the information in a way that is easy to understand and follow. I loved the step-by-step directions of the animal magic deepening connection technique. I believe it strengthened the bonds between me and my dog. After reading the section on Chakras, I know I have more work to do on my boy. I will use the book as a guide. If you love animals and want to find different ways to heal them, this is the book for you.

Thank you with gratitude to the publisher and to Net Galley for the opportunity for review. My opinion is my own.
I was thrilled to receive this book as caretaker to a rescue Himalayan with severe PTSD from her past . I have used hands on healing with my prior cats and found that modality to be very helpful. So i was very interested to read the author's suggestions and techniques.
I absolutely loved Niki Senior's extraordinary book "Animal Healing." As a animal lover and one who has had various animals for decades I can tell the author has a unique connection to animals and a great love of helping animals live their best life. I was touched by the sharing of her own story of how she came to be a animal healer and that she thoughtfully wrote this book over six years. Animal people recognize other animal people and through her heartfelt writing i believe she is of what she speaks and knows healing of animals. I am very impressed with the author and by this book.

Inside this book is a wealth of knowledge that I can use. The book is exemplary in its comprehensive details.
The author reaches out to us to us silent communication with each animal, what Bach remedies to use , animal auras and chakras, and about using healing modalities such as crystals, reiki, and a dowsing pendulum. All of these methods are very sensible and healthy healing for animals.

I highly recommend "Animal Healing" . This book is a treasure for all animal lovers and i will be buying a hardback copy for my personal use. Thank you with gratitude to the author and the publisher. This is a book i quite highly recommend.

I'm a true believer in holistic treatment and preventative actions rather than waiting until there's a problem so this book caught my eye. I enjoyed the author's accounts of animals and their people she has worked with over the years. While I don't fully buy into all of the healing methods used by the author and I don't think this book is a good fit for everyone, I'm so glad I read it and will be utilizing some of the described techniques with my own furry roommates and would recommend it to the animal lover who is open to holistic medicine.

Thank you to Llewellyn Worldwide, Ltd. and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for my honest review.

This book came to me at the right time.

I got this book about two weeks before my Bearded Dragon was just diagnosed with testicular cancer and I'm trying to keep her comfortable. Using crystals, and some methods in this book, I'm hoping to ease her discomfort. And I will be using what I've learned in this book to help her feel good when she crosses over the rainbow.

I know that animals are receptive to human emotions but this book was a good reminder of that. I only hold her to my chest when I envision her surrounded by the white light of my love.

I don't use what I've learned in this book to cure her, I'm using what the author taught me to keep her from suffering. Niki Senior, thank you so much and thank you to the publisher for granting me this book.

Animal Healing is a terrific book full of knowledge about how to heal and deepen your connection with your pets. Niki Senior appears to be an expert in her field and she shares some complicated concepts in such a way that a layperson like myself understands everything.

As a reiki practioner I was already aware of working with a form of healing energy. Senior introduced me to additional forms of helping my animals. I had never even thought of using crystals in the treatments. Lots of knowledge, ways to tune in to your pets energies.

One of my dog has arthritis and allergies. I tried a few of Senior's treatments and I can tell you that she is better. What better evidence could you want that this book is well worth your time - and one to keep close at hand on my bookshelf. Thank you Niki Senior!

The author of Animal Healing says that she has no special gift--we are all capable of healing animals. She describes silent communication with each animal, choosing Bach remedies, animal auras and chakras, and about using healing modalities such as crystals, reiki, and a dowsing pendulum. Not for everyone, to be sure, but an interesting look at a woman who has evidently had great success in helping animals overcome challenges.

I absolutely loved Niki Senior's extraordinary book "Animal Healing." Although I don't plan on becoming a professional animal healer, I gained a tremendous amount of knowledge that I can use as a layperson. The book is incredibly comprehensive and detailed. I enjoyed reading Niki's fascinating, deeply personal story about how she became an animal healer. I highly recommend "Animal Healing" to anyone interested in how we can help our beloved best friends feel better in body, mind, and spirit. In doing so, we shall heal ourselves as well and thanks to "Animal Healing" we have an inspirational guide to lead the way to healthier lives.

Wow! I just read this book and I’m blown away! Niki Senior has written a thorough and enjoyable treatise on animal healing. She uses many examples from her own healing practice And while the book imparts extensive knowledge about many different animals and avenues of healing, it is easy for the average reader (like me!) to understand all the concepts she covers.

I was especially interested in the chapters on using crystals for healing, and animal chakras. I have always wondered if animals have soccer is the way we do… And now I know!

The authors examples and step by step guidelines are all extremely helpful. I love that she also writes about the ethics of this kind of healing.

We have had animals over the years and I have felt a special unique connection with each of them, and now I don’t feel so alone!

Thanks to NetGalley, the author and publisher for an advanced reading copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
