HOW TO CREATE A SUCCESSFUL HOLISTIC BUSINESS

~A Primer (Short Version) Paperback

* RAPPORT

            Rapport is learning to get along, bond and create a sacred space for your clients to heal themselves.

           When listening to your client, upon their arrival, mentally log and observe their needs each time.  This is the only way to really start getting a handle on how to best serve them.  It takes a lot of these experiences to develop your craft.  Being able to “sense” what people are about is a craft.

          This ability must be earned.  One can’t win it in a lottery.  It takes client after client to learn how to size them up in the first five minutes of connection with them.  Developing this intuition helps in your ability to give them the best care needed for the time they are there with you in session.

          As a professional, part of your job is to “know” the best route to take for that particular session.  After about 500 clients, only then, you will start getting in tune with such things as body language, voice intonation, their energetic coloring, attitude and where they want to go in that session.  This class is called:  Rapport 101, it is earned through time.

         Trust:  Firm reliance on the integrity, ability, or character of a person or thing.    Dictionary.com. 

         The first contact with a new client is especially critical when it comes to establishing trust.  They are fragile at first.  Baby steps are required at first.  Take your time with their intake medical evaluation.  This interview will give you plenty of time to “sense” what they need and how to act toward them when in session.

         There is a difference between sympathy and empathy.  Sympathy is jumping into the disease with the client experiencing all of their drama and pain; empathy is feeling compassion at a distance.  You must detach with Love and observe the client, or you will be of no value to them because you will have joined them in the tempest.  You are no good to the client if you are caught up in experiencing the disease.  Someone has to steer the boat to the other side, and that captain is supposed to be you.  Most clients come to you with a “disease,” they are trusting your ability to help them towards a holistic result.  

Compassion for their ailment is appropriate.  Compassion is a heart emotion.  Compassion is accepting that person just as they are and if they choose to move forward in your business, toward a healthier life, they belong there.  Your job, as a professional, is to show them where center is and for them to learn to trust you and themselves.  It is not letting them distract you and getting caught up in useless eternal dramas. 

           During an interview does a new client require constant eye contact?  That usually means they are sizing you up to see if you are a safe person.  Do they not want to have much eye contact?  This usually means they want you to be extra careful about their boundaries.  Talking soft or firm and clear, a bouncy personality or subdued, these characteristics are developed to help bond with them.  This client has chosen to have a healthy relationship with you, and, has chosen to trust you with a capital “T.”  Sometimes developing this bond can require a long time and you should commit to be in the trenches for at least as long as it takes provided they are moving forward. 

           However, if you have worked on your stuff and you are approachable, the trust between you and your client will happen quickly without fail.

Learning to meet the client halfway has been very successful in creating long and loving relationships.  Being a holistic professional is one of the most trusted jobs on the planet. After all, you are asking them to shed their skin.  No pun intended.  This type of business deals with the vulnerability of the heart and they must develop a trust in you.  People come to you because they want to be whole.  They learn to come from the heart and open up.  They are awaking to what changes need to take place in their lives to make them healthy, happy, viable people.

Your “presence” is crucial to their development.  That is why you are in this holistic business, the business of the heart.  Your job is to love them, with compassion and detachment, until they can love themselves.

      Unique Characteristics of the Educational Content:

 

“How To Create A Successful Holistic Practice,” -The Primer (short and sweet)-was created to help inform and support the individual who might be thinking about starting a holistic practice; the newly established therapist; or the seasoned therapist who needs to broaden his/her spectrum about becoming more prosperous in their business. 

       The workbook, “Intentional Success,” is an in-depth workbook.   The student/reader has an opportunity to explore, research, and participate in their chosen craft, by answering questions designed to stretch them.   Most people attracted to the field of holistic therapy are right brainers, creative types.

        Right brainers are usually audio/visual. Instead of reading a word and seeing the image, they tend to just want to see the image.   So the content is as short and sweet, with as much wisdom in a small space, as possible.  If you are both right and left brain then that is a bonus!

         The books length is just enough for the reader to process the questions without feeling like it’s a Masters thesis.   The text is a very user friendly and the reader will find their own way of processing their own personal journey as they step into the field of holistic health.  This is your life; hopefully it will become your lifestyle.

 

         This information is designed to point the reader in the right direction, that of serving others in a wonderful, beneficial way and learning self worth reliance while building a successful practice.
