A Reiki Master Certificate Allows You To Treat People Professionally
Some people do not charge for Reiki sessions and attunements. Offering your services for free is a very generous gesture, but if you want Reiki to be your life's work, obviously you will need to be able to support yourself and possibly your family. You must start by realizing evaluating your overall situation first.
Naturally, as with everything you do professionally, you will need knowledge, experience and confidence, before you start making a living doing something that you enjoy to do.
my personal suggestion to start Reiki is giving away free trial sessions to friends and family to gain confidence. Clearly, you are not charging for the energy; it's free for everybody. It's your time and commitment to what you've studied that you are charging for. I started out giving Reiki by treating my family, coworkers and pets and also doing Reiki attunements. It was very fulfilling to share these free attunements, and it made a big difference in a lot of my friends lives - people who were not able to raise the funds for attunements but were eager to learn how to heal themselves and others.
Even now, many years and experience later, I would never turn someone away from a healing or attunement because they dont have the financial means. Remember the law of karma: what goes around comes around and the golden rule: do unto others as you'd have them do unto you. Thats just the Law and it is wise to follow it.

You are qualified to teach others!
In my opinion, you should have plenty of practice and experience before attempting to teach someone else. Mainly, because your students will have questions and you should be able to help them. Another reason is, if you attempt to teach others before you have experienced Reiki and the energy which attached to it, you may be missing out on part of the big picture. Reiki is beautiful and one reason is in its simplicity. The concept of Reiki is one that can be easily grasped, but you have to learn through your own experience and awareness.
I have to mention that attunements can be transmitted, even you don't have collected experience already. However doing attunements will help you gain knowledge into the processes involved in Reiki, both through your own feelings during the attunement procedure and through the attunees' experiences.
I became a Reiki Master to grow spiritually and to expand my awareness. In this process you gain so much knowledge, so that teaching others become natural. Teaching and expanding Reiki to as many people as possible has not always been my goal and desire, as I'm sure it is not for many of you. Even after reading many books on Reiki, receiving the attunements, doing hands-on healing sessions, and sending many attunements to others, I still didn't have the knowledge and intention to be a teacher. Only when I asked my Higher Self in what I can do to help others, I discovered my ability to teach Reiki to others. What a new experience!

Become a Reiki Master Associate!
At that time you have completed all necessary the lessons and assignments to receive your Reiki Master Certificate, and if you develop the desire to teach others but not necessarily create your own learning material, there are always options of becoming an Professional Reiki Mastery Associate, which is beneficial because you can purchase a professionally accredited course handbook as an affiliate for your own students. You can charge your students as you see your value in supporting their studies.
You will be your students' guide through the course, sending their attunements and answering any questions they may have. Once they have completed the assignments they will receive a customized, internationally accredited Reiki Master Certificate through any Professional Reiki Mastery Association.
If you have the intention to teach Reiki, but don't want to create your own material, and wish to handle to your students an accredited Reiki Master certificate, becoming an associate or affiliate may be the right choice for you.
