Q: Where do I go for training?
A:Observing a Caring Center that's operational
is a tremendous help. Coming to Memphis (where Caring Center began)
would be a wonderful way to learn, but if that isn't possible there
are other ways we can help. The training is provided free, although
our travel may be limited by the cost of airfare. Much of the information
that you'll need is printed in our training materials and our goal
is to make the entire process a joyous and easy one.
Q: How do I recruit practitioners
for my Caring Center? I'm concerned that I won't have enough practitioners
to meet the demand.
A: One of the joys of this work is watching
how beautifully the process unfolds once it has begun. We have a
Power Point presentation that should be a big help when you make
presentations to various groups. You can also talk to folks who
operate the massage schools and the people in your area that teach
energy work. The Caring Center is a great place for their students
to develop skills as they practice side by side with people who've
had some experience. Anyone who's had formal training and can provide
you with a copy of his or her certificate/license is welcome to
participate. People without formal training are not permitted to
practice at a Caring Center, even though they may be very gifted.
Don't worry; you won't be a "group of one" for long!

Q: How can I find a location for our
Caring Center? The town I live in is small and very conservative.
Any suggestions?
A: More conservative than Memphis? There are
Caring Centers in many different types of settings: churches, a
hospital, a holistic health center, a warehouse and a senior center.
We'll be glad to assist you with ideas. Our Caring Center coordinators
are also great sources for ideas and have wonderful stories about
the unfolding of divine order during the creation of their sites.
Q: We've had a Caring Center open for
a little over a year and there's been a drop in client participation
over the last few months. Last night we had four practitioners and
two clients show up. Our practitioners take advantage of the situation
by enjoying treatments that they don't usually get. Do other centers
experience extremely slow times and in your knowledge how do they
handle it?
A: You are experiencing what every center has,
the natural pulsation of expansion and contraction. This is not just
normal but vital as well. This is an ideal time to focus on the core
of the Caring Center, the Practitioners. I'm sure you will smile to
know you are at such a wonderful and important stage of growth.
