Christian Stone Is selling help with starting a Reiki business a scam? Like in the California Gold rush days where it wasn't the miners who became rich panning for gold, it was the people selling shovels to the people trying to get rich. That's how I feel about things related to showing people how they can build Reiki businesses. Who's actually benefitting from your books, programs, and conferences? Is it really the little town Reiki practitioner who desperately needs to make money with a Reiki practice? If you were giving the information for free, then I wouldn't have a qualm.
One of the most classic business scams is the "self-help" and "secrets of success" where the trick to making money is to "come to my seminar" or "buy my book" so you can know my secrets, too. I'm not accusing you of being selfish or unethical, but there are no business secrets that guarantee success except luck, hard work, and having a product that everyone wants. Christian Stone When you send Reiki, what is happening in your mind? Are you thinking about anything in specific? I have been a Reiki practitioner for years, and since the beginning, I have continually repeated “sending Reiki” or “sending” in my mind during the session. I keep thinking if I don’t continue repeating that in my mind Reiki may stop. I know this is foolish, since Reiki is intelligent, but I can’t get out of the habit after so long! What should I be thinking about?
Christian Stone Most of my practice has been in-person sessions, but I would REALLY like to grow the distance Reiki portion of my business (only had a few so far). What's the best way for distance clients to find you? Google, SEO, social media? Wondering where to focus my energy first, since I'm not well versed in these areas quite yet.
Christian Stone I will be hosting my first Reiki group session and am wondering:
How long should it be? How do I fill the time other than having a meditation, grounding, and sending Reiki to the collective? Is it better to have a set intention for each session or to allow them to set their own? Do I allow time for sharing? Christian Stone What advice do you have for offering Reiki at a retreat, including fee? A friend of a friend reached out asking if I'd be interested in offering Reiki at a women's retreat. I am excited and think this could be a great opportunity, but also feel a little unprepared. Do you have any advice about what questions I should ask the retreat manager or anything specific I should share with her? How do I handle negotiating offering Reiki for a retreat? What should my fee be?
Christian Stone What is the best way to get testimonials from your Reiki clients? I’m revamping my website and want to include powerful and genuine testimonials and success stories. I’m planning on sending previous clients a text or email (maybe with a video) and am wondering if I should include a format/outline to make it simpler for them?
Christian Stone Taxes...ugh! They can be confusing, challenging, and even scary. You want to be legit with your Reiki business taxes, and you don't want to go to jail, so I'm sharing with you some important federal tax information you need to know.
Of course, I am not a tax professional, accountant, or lawyer, and I advise working with a tax professional on your own Reiki business taxes. This article contains federal tax information for US-based Reiki businesses and not advice. Please seek advice for your own personal taxes from your tax professional. But here are 3 things you need to know about Reiki business taxes... Christian Stone Reiki is awesome for all kinds of things, and sometimes practitioners wonder...

Christian Stone | Standing Stones Healing Co. My 10 year old son has autism and ADHD and can’t feel Reiki on himself when I send it. I thought Reiki would be really good to calm him down and align his emotions. Is it because he’s over thinking it or blocked?

Christian Stone | Standing Stones Healing Co. What do you think about "setting intentions" at the beginning of a Reiki session for a client?

Others just ask for Reiki to flow to the person's highest good. Does that have an impact on the session?
Christian Stone | Standing Stones Healing Co. I want to offer Reiki in nursing homes for a low price but what should I wear? And what should I charge? $40 seems reasonable since where I live it costs $4,000/month to put someone in a nursing home.

Someone else told me I should offer the sessions for free, since it's an underserved population. What do you think?

I keep seeing so many other practitioners offering cord cutting, calling in deities, angels, and healing people, but this is not Reiki. Do I need to be offering these things too? Is Reiki not enough?
Christian Stone | Standing Stones Healing Co. Is it a requirement for a teacher to provide a manual they have written themselves for each level? I had the same teacher for all 3 levels and she didn't give us a manual. I had intense courses in terms of the content and practice, but feel like I’m missing something as a Reiki teacher since I don’t have manuals. I have considered writing my own to use when I start teaching, but do I need to have them?
Christian Stone | Standing Stones Healing Co. I paid and attending trainings up to my master level. My teacher was moving out of state and did my last attunement right before she left. I never received a “certificate.” I have asked about it several times because I feel that if I see clients it will be expected (I am not a massage therapist). She says she will get it to me, but I never hear back from her. At this point, I don’t think this will happen and I'm feeling disappointed and concerned. Is a certificate something I need or will clients not care?
