Shared Healing
A lot of people ask me why I do not charge for my services.
Well, my reason is Shared Healing.
There was a time in my life when I found that I could not have what many take for granted. At that time I yearned for compassion from those that knew me, and it comforted me to have a few true friends who gave in love and understanding. But what I found most touching of all was when I found compassion in those that did not know me.
That experience brought home to me the importance of just giving. Without prejudice; without preconceptions; without requiring or expecting something in return.
I made the decision then that I would create something that would allow me to reach out to people and just give.
I give, because I want to. Because it allows me to reach out to people, and to help them — no matter if it is in some small way. Because doing that gives me a sense of well–being and of happiness. And I like that.
I give to charity — the Save the Children charity is my choice
For the same reasons, I give to charity what I can, when I can. This is why I choose to donate a portion of all proceeds from my services to charity. It is my way of giving to those that I could not otherwise reach.
Reiki should be for Everyone
I thought long and hard, searching for a way that would allow me to provide my services to as many as possible, without charging for them. I finally realized that an age–old practice had been in place all along; one that was as familiar as the common practice of tipping: voluntary donations.
Like the act of tipping, voluntary donations are by their very nature voluntary. They can reward good service, and in this case, good causes too. Accepting voluntary donations allows me to reach people irrespective of their means: those that can give more, may do; those that can give less, are able to.
Whatever you choose to give, there is no expectation. I have already made the decision to share my Reiki healing with anyone who wishes to benefit from it. Whatever you choose to share, remains your choice.
This is Shared Healing.
