Well i think the universe has been listening I had a call regarding my healing work yesterday which might turn into somewthing and two more patients booked in for next week which is already very busy week. Which is good as this week I have only had 1 client all week. (Monday is my main day at the clinic and of course it was Easter!!!)

The new one that rang, didnt tell me where he got my number from, but I did pop some business cards into the pharmacy we use yesterday so it could be there or word of mouth, or my website. But that is simple a landing page with my phone number. Anyway, its an extra one so thats a bonus!!

Fab news!! I am thinking of starting up a small reiki & past life regression business...as I'm done with my old job and not so keen to go out and do the same again for a pittance ...I'd rather make a pittance doing something I love instead at least I will be having fun along the journey ☺️

To you happen to teach rieki? I did my level one, but would like to re do it and then level 2.

OOh and Id be very interested in the past life stuff too!!

No I am only trained to level 2 reiki. My friend did her masters and I was going to do it at the same time, but I didn't have the funds to do it so never bothered. Past life regression was my last big course splurge, I had great fun doing that and met some great friends too! I do think I need to be more practical, I have lots of courses I have done and lots of skills and yet I search for jobs that pay a stupid min wage and ones that I hate. The idea of business is overwhelming to me though I am the least practical person I know lol

I'd be there for a big yurt / healing 😄 

It's fantastic getting more clients, grab and slot them in. 

Both of you, FP and DFW321, do reiki. There's a lot of interest / call for holistic based treatments; it's on my to do list for next year.

Love the idea of a healing Yurt. Turning my summer house into a Reiki healing space this year, also looking to do my masters later in the summer. Retirement planning to bring in a little bit extra.

ooh thats 3 of us with a bit of Reiki just on this thread. How interesting!!

I dont think the healing yurt will happen to be honest. We do have the space, but we also has a log cabin built in the garden, which is half used for my art and half turned into a mini gym. We plan to move soonish, so although the yurt could be taken with us, im not sure. Plus my healing work that I currently do is all distant so I technically dont need the space (unless I do reflexology/ reiki)

It's just plans and ideas, when you move they get reformulated into what would work and half the process has been figured out.

Thanks MF, i appreciate your thoughts and wisdom x

SO today was clinic day, should have had 9, 1 rang to say they had fallen over (turns out they fell out of bed and couldnt get up!) Her DH came in for his app and he has hurt his back trying to get her up!! So moved the last one into the space and then the last 2 failed to show up. I rang one and shes all apologetic,  and has rebooked, but she will have to pay a no show fee and the other one I cant get hold of, but he has been very poorly lately. This is always an issue when working with these lovely older people, I witness them aging between the 6 week apps and it can be really sad! But the upshot is im 3 down on my really bust week which is a shame. Still got lots of home visits though this week, so it will still be a good week.

I transfered my cash back money today £7.92 ~ nice bit of free money thank you very much and popped it into the car fund and then popped a bit more to round it up!

DH has a day off today and he has just been in the garage having a bit of a sort out. He has just shown me a camera. It used to be my grandads!!!! its a canon and has 2 seperate lens. DH think it could sell for about £50 looking at previous sales, so thats good news, if we can sell it, it will go on the mortgage.

Went to Lydols just now and always wehn I go, i think i shpould go more often, it really is so much cheaper than Mr T and Mr S, mt usual go tos. I picked up a few bags of seeds and nuts as well as salad the fruit, and resisted the choclate and biscuit isle Yey!!

Every time I go to Mr L or A I think the same 🤣 and yet I still go to Mr S every week! I think it's because if I go to either of the former I still have to go to another shop to finish the shopping meaning two shops...and I detest grocery shopping (why I since moved to online home delivery orders)...but went to buy mixed nuts for example the other day and in Mr S they were nearly five pounds and in A1di they were less than £2 last time I went! Crazy price difference so I really should make the effort.

Sorry to hear about the no shows for appointments 👎 I hope they have paid you anyway as you're trying to make an income not doing it purely for fun!

Thats exactly it, I cant get all that we need in either MrL and MrA so go for Mr S where I can, becasue like you I hate shopping! I try to do MrT online, but it has become here and there so end up in MrS which is even more costly than MrT. Ho hum, I need to go to MrL more and stocks up on the nuts/seeds ~ this was also the thing I bought yesterday

One of the no shows will pay a no show fee. Of the others, the first one fell and the last one I had a call this morning from their wife and they are in hospital. So no charges for either of them.

Feeling v low in energy today, done my first clinet this morning and next its taking DD to the dentist and then have another client after that.

Tea will be lamb stir fry (I dont really like lamb, but it was DH birthday on Sunday so we had a roast lamb. Also taking advantage of the Easter lamb prices. Lamb is so expensive!) With rice noodles to keep it gluten free. Will see if I can find all the bits in the cuboard so I can avoid the shops for another day!

DS2 has just paid me his rent for the month. This is just a holding pot, helping him get in good money habits. He is a saver so that is helpful! This fund is nearly at £1000 and it will go back to help him when he is at uni
