Christian Stone | Standing Stones Healing Co. Can you explain how do you deal with taxes if you create an online store on your website? I offer Reiki sessions, but want to sell crystals, too. What would I do at tax time? I thought about Etsy, but a lot of YouTubers and marketing gurus encourage selling from your own websites, which is a great idea, but no one ever explains how we would deal with taxes. Thank you for your help!
Christian Stone | Standing Stones Healing Co. Some providers of other services like hypnosis offer a free 15 minute consultation. They usually do this because they're trying to sell a high cost package, but you can usually select your own appointment time and there are limitless slots, literally anytime of day it seems. How does this work? Does this mean these people don't have anything else to do? I have a full schedule with other work and life commitments and could not do that, so I'm just wondering what the strategy is. I'm thinking of doing a free 15 minute phone consult and offering an amount off a package for doing that so I'll just offer around my availability but was wondering what the secret is if you can fill me in.
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 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...
Can it help get rid of ghosts and entities? Christian Stone | Standing Stones Healing Co. Is distance Reiki still in demand? I’ve been wanting to start my Reiki business for awhile now, but I don’t have a studio space or an extra room in my apartment to offer sessions to clients. I was hoping to be able to offer it to clients virtually, but does anyone want it. Is it still in demand?
Christian Stone | Standing Stones Healing Co. I’m looking for some assistance with my website. I’ve created a great deal of content but I need some fine tuning help with the platform. Every option I’ve explored, including businesses and freelancers, is so costly. Do you recommend using a website building service or person?
Christian Stone | Standing Stones Healing Co. What do you think about "setting intentions" at the beginning of a Reiki session for a client? The intention being set by Reiki practitioners is not "standardized," and practitioners can be very elaborate by calling in symbols, guides, power animals, angels. 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. I don’t want to price my services out of their range, but I don’t want to undercut other Reiki practitioners. Someone else told me I should offer the sessions for free, since it's an underserved population. What do you think?
Christian Stone | Standing Stones Healing Co. New Reiki practitioners often wonder how to start a session, and it's important to consider because how we start a session can have a greater impact than we think.

Christian Stone | Standing Stones Healing Co. I just quit my job to start my Reiki business, but am getting a little concerned because I learned that what I want to offer, Usui Reiki, no one wants. 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?
Christian Stone | Standing Stones Healing Co. Do you have any tips to get more people to attend a Reiki share? When I stop offering them in my studio, so many people ask me to host them or are interested in attending, but when I offer them and it's time to sign up, very few do. When I offer these it's just because I’d like to see the community come together.
Christian Stone | Standing Stones Healing Co. My Reiki clients are asking me to start taking insurance for the wellness portion of their policies. Is that possible? Will health insurance cover Reiki? Can I bill my clients' health insurance? How does that work?
Christian Stone | Standing Stones Healing Co. I just started accepting money for my Reiki sessions. I have a PayPal account and am getting paid for my Reiki sessions through that, but I don't know how it works for taxes. I heard something about a 1099 form. Do I need to have an LLC for that? I just signed up for a spiritual business program and am hoping they address it, but it hasn't yet come up in the program. Can you help?
Christian Stone | Standing Stones Healing Co. I recently did Reiki at a wellness fair and had a drawing to win a free Reiki session after which I would tell them my pricing and packages. I selected numerous winners, and so far I've had two appointments, but they both no called/no showed. I'm bummed and this is discouraging. I've heard that giving away Reiki for free isn't a good idea. Was I wrong?
Christian Stone | Standing Stones Healing I am offering tarot readings, oracle readings, and Reiki healings and offering my services for donations while I develop my business and get my name out there. I’m also working full-time and am a mom, so I’m limited on availability for clients, which also pushes me to feel donation-based is the best route until I have more time or experience. But when should I start charging?
