Little Lotus - Animal Reiki Therapy and Animal Communication - Nationwide
I’m Nicole Shrestha, a Reiki Master, published and accredited expert in animal behavior, and the founder of The Lotus Method™️ — a trauma-informed, intuitive-led Reiki approach created specifically for animals. I’ve had the privilege of working with a plethora of animals worldwide, from beloved pets to rescues, sanctuaries, and working animals, helping them heal, thrive, and communicate in ways their humans can truly understand.
Through Animal Reiki and Animal Communication, I guide animals and their humans to release stress, trauma, and energetic blockages, while strengthening the bond between them. Every session is tailored to the unique personality and energy of your animal, combining intuitive healing with evidence-based understanding of behavior to create safe, compassionate, and profoundly transformative experiences.
With The Lotus Method™️, my mission is to bring healing, balance, and connection to animals everywhere—supporting their emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being with care, respect, and expertise.

DETAILS ABOUT REIKI :
Every session is fully trauma-informed and intuitive-led, honoring the unique energy and needs of each animal. While in-person Reiki allows me to work directly with your animal’s energy in a calm, tactile environment in their own home- distance Reiki is just as powerful and effective. NOTE:Energy is not bound by space animals can feel the same release, relaxation, and healing regardless of physical distance. Many animals respond immediately, showing signs of calm, reduced stress, and emotional release even when we’re not in the same room.
During a session, animals remain fully comfortable lying, sitting, or resting as they choose. I may also incorporate singing bowls, crystals, oils, or gentle clearing practices to enhance relaxation and create a safe, positive atmosphere. Many pet parents report observing deep calm, emotional release, or playful energy shifts following a session. Some animals enter a profound, meditative state, while others simply feel lighter, calmer, and more present.
Whether in person or at a distance, Animal Reiki by Little Lotus provides a compassionate, transformative space where animals can release stress, restore balance, and reconnect with their natural sense of peace.

Pricing Packages
Reiki for Pets can be done in person or from distance. This is where a practitioner channels healing energy through her hands to the animal either directly on the body or from a distance. The frequency of sessions depends entirely on each individual animal's health status and needs. Most sessions last 45-70 mins. Comfort is an important part of healing so this session is done where the animal resides. If done remote a video link of all feedback from session is provided right after session is completed.

How did you hone your craft?
I am certified in nine different healing modalities, including Crystal Energy Work and Animal Communication. I take great pride in continuously expanding my knowledge, from formal studies in animal behavior to exploring innovative methods for enhancing communication with animals of all sizes and species. My approach is rooted in lifelong learning, ensuring that each animal I work with receives the most compassionate, effective, and intuitive care possible.
What tip would you give pet parents for working with animals that you've learned as a pro?
Be honest—it helps us move toward healing more quickly. Some animals can be a little aggressive at times, and that’s completely normal. Just like humans, they have their off days. Letting the practitioner know allows us to keep both the animal and ourselves safe. Many people assume aggressive animals can’t receive Reiki, but often, they’re the ones who benefit the most. It may just need to be offered in a different way.
What is one thing you want pet parents to know about you? It can be whatev-fur you'd like!
