· If each Master is unique, so is each student. Someone else's choice may not be the right one for you. How does one choose? How do you know whom you can trust?

· Some teachers are affiliated with "schools" or organizations. The vast majority may be independents. One way is not necessarily better than the other.

· Arrange for a sample treatment if possible. This way, you get to meet your potential teacher before deciding on taking a class. You can experience the energy your teacher channels and get a feel for the system you are considering learning. (Many practitioners have never received a hands-on treatment from their teachers.)

· Cost should not be the overriding factor - unless a teacher's prices are much higher than the norm. Teachers have different philosophies on different pricing systems, but we are not comparing otherwise identical commodities. It is not like buying peas.

· With Reiki, it is not "you get what you pay for". It is more like: "You get back according to what you put in."

· Many practitioners, in referring to a class they completed, speak of it as their "attunement". The initiations (attunements) usually take a few minutes each, whereas a class is typically a few hours long at least. Still, a class can only cover the basics, not every conceivable situation. Questions and issues often arise after the formal class. How accessible will the person who initiated you be after the class?

· After all the questions and answers, remember to also ask your intuition. Does it feel right, do you have a good feeling about this person? If the answer is no, then continue looking.

· It is not about passing judgment. It is about finding someone with whom you resonate.
