Hi all, I’m a newbie myself. I have myself listed as doing free sessions but haven’t received any requests yet. My curious question to @Irina_Nola is did that person see the free session on the forum/website and contact you because of it even though you are not listed in the “Free Session” listings? I’ve looked on there myself to see about having a session done for myself, (since I’ve never had one done on myself) but there are only a few people offering free sessions (and none in my neck of the woods). In other words, did that person just call to see if she could get a free session and not even had seen the forum/website? So having that listing made no difference in receiving that call? Just wondering.
Lastly, I just want to throw out what I had seen on another healer’s website (SalRachele.com) which really resonated with me. Once I am up and running I plan on instilling the same principles on payment that he has.
This is partially what he states. There is more if you want to read the whole payment section.
“My policy regarding compensation for spiritual work is as follows: I believe anyone who is sincere should have access to spiritual information. That is our God-given right, and it is my desire to give of my God-abilities freely and without reservation. However, it has become apparent that I am doing a disservice to many clients by not encouraging a fair and balanced energy exchange. In addition, in order to remain in integrity with the 3D aspects of my incarnation, it is necessary that my work be self-supporting. For these reasons, I am including suggested love offerings for my readings.It is my belief that it is appropriate to tithe 10 percent of my work. This means that for every nine readings in which I receive a financial offering, I will offer one reading completely for free with no thought of return. I used to give away 50 to 60 percent of my readings, and this created what is commonly called “reverse karma”, meaning that I gave more than I received. While this is ultimately an illusion because giving and receiving are the same and God provides for me no matter what, it is nevertheless more desirable to have a fair and balanced energy exchange.
Therefore, I humbly ask that you either make the suggested offerings given or provide some ideas on how you can make an energy exchange. Examples of energy exchanges might be referring three people who make the suggested love offering, or providing me with holistic bodywork if you are in my vicinity, or sending something of value that I can use, such as recording and duplicating equipment, computer and printer supplies, etc. Contact me to discuss possible energy exchanges.
If you absolutely positively cannot afford any financial or energy exchange and you sincerely want a reading, I will still give you a reading for free. However, I may wait until I have had nine paid sessions before I give you your free session. This might mean having to wait a few days or a few weeks, depending on the volume of business.
I apologize if this inconveniences you. I was reluctant to make this change, but the truth is, my readings are highly valuable and I deserve to be prospered for my services. If you receive a reading and do not feel it was worth the suggested offering, I would be happy to accept less or refund your offering. To help me better serve you, I would request that you explain why the reading did not meet your expectations and give suggestions on how I might improve my services. Some people are easier to read than others. Often I encounter clients whose spirit guides are less evolved than the person I’m reading, and they might try to block my attempts to help. You have free will. I cannot guarantee the accuracy of my readings because you are capable of proving me wrong by using your free will to change your mind. The only guarantee I can make is that I will promise to do my very best to serve you. My highest priority is to assist you on your spiritual path. Your safety, happiness, growth and well-being come before everything else during a reading.”
