    Do I Need a Business License for Reiki?

    Christian | Standing Stones Healing Co.
    How do business licenses work for Reiki business owners? I'm in the startup process and planning on offering distance Reiki from home but would also like the possibility of doing in-person sessions by renting or working out of a shared space (hotel spa, beauty salon, vet's office, yoga studio, etc) and also going to client's homes. I live in the county of Los Angeles, so it seems like depending on where you conduct business, you need a business license from the city you're doing business in. Are multiple business licenses needed if your home operation is City A, but you rent a space in city B, and see clients in cities C, D, E?

    How to Clear and Cleanse a Space

    Christian | Standing Stones Healing Co.
    I volunteer with an organization that provides transitional housing for homeless families with children. Can I use Reiki to cleanse the energy in the space when we are preparing for new families to move in? Has anyone done this and, if so, can you share your method(s) and experience(s), please? Also, if I can cleanse/clear with Reiki do I also need to sage separately or should I use them in tandem?

    Reiki Practitioners, Please Don't Do This

    Christian | Standing Stones Healing Co.
    In 2002, I worked at a Renaissance Faire (story for another day!), and one Saturday, one of the regular attendees grabbed my arm and said, "Christian, you have to meet my friend!" He pulled me over to an older woman, and when I said hi and reached out my hand to shake hers, she grabbed both of mine, yanked them toward her and started mumbling something that I strained to hear...

    Do Reiki Practitioners See Dead People?

    Christian | Standing Stones Healing Co.
    Is it common to have people who have passed make their presence known to the practitioner? In my session, the practitioner said deceased family members were there. I will say whatever she did released some chronic pain I’ve had for years. I had previously tried many other things - medication, therapy, acupuncture, massage therapy, etc. I’ve now been pain free for two weeks. I’m open to whatever happened but also don’t want to be taken advantage of since I’d give just about anything to reconnect with my loved ones who have passed on.
