: I am a Reiki practitioner, Level II, studying for my Master Level, newly moved to northwestern NJ. I would appreciate hearing from other Reiki practitioners or other holistic practitioners about how they attract new clients. I have received a lot of "build it and they will come" stories, which is wonderful advice, but it's not enough for me. Do you work with other health care professionals? Newspaper ads? Radio? Cable? As a start up business, I don't have a great deal of capital for advertising, but I would like to hear how other practitioners are getting clients. Thank you all in advance for any help you could give me.
Hi Larraine!
I don't know whether I could give you too much advice as far a "start up" business may go. By far, the advice you have probably be given and I myself have been given as well, is the "If you build it, they will come." However, with Reiki and any other very spiritual healing modality, I have found personally that with this particular healing process being spirit driven, they will be or may be guided to you or vice versa (you to them) by way of spirit. :-) And ones individual need perhaps of healing on some level. If it is meant for them :-)
I think also to, that as we practitioners are guided by spirit to "aid" or be that vessel in anothers healing, we (ourselves) are also healed on different levels. Just trust in your inner guidance, it will show you the way and will never steer you wrong. :-)
Namaste
