How do you explain Reiki to someone who never heard of it. I would love to hear your ideas or things that have worked for you.
I volunteer at hospice and walking into a room and explaining what you are there for out of the blue. I scarred a patient today. She apparently thought I was casting a spell on her. I expalined there might be heat and sometime cold or tingling. I explained that it was a old japanese relaxation technique that sometimes helps with the pain. I explained that I have been trained. She asked if anyone can learn this and I said yes with some training.
Apparently one of the social workers isn't into alternative therapies. She was on us (the therapy director and me)before we reached the end of the hall. Saying the lady didn't like it and didn't want it again. Apparently she went in just to ask that question because she wouldn't of had time to talk to the lady about anything else. Couldn't have been 3 minutes before she caught up with us after we left the room.
We are trying to figure out how to maybe make a little intoduction type flyer to hang on the walls. Services that are available. We can't use words like healing or energy. They figure it might freak them out. This way they would at least have a chance to ask for it, Instead of just barging in and introducing ourselves.
any help and suggestions would be appreciated.
thank- you
