Jason Wise
Founder of Rize Reiki. Honoring the light within every soul, integrating breathwork, mindfulness, and meditation, into the healing practice of Reiki. Within this space, I share with you the healing touch of Reiki. This technique developed in Japan, light touch, or near touch therapy, is used for stress-reduction, reduced anxiety, and improved sleep.
To live is to change.
These words I fought my entire life. I feel many of us fight change, feeling the external pressures to βbeβ, or βliveβ in a certain way. These expectations can bring forth doubt, fear, anxiety, and rarely align with our true self. We have the potential for great possibilities, yet through the stress of life, disease, and trauma, our mind and body begin to shut down, closing off to our highest self. These stressors set forth a cascade of events, if left unattended can erode, and destroy the most important person in your universe, You. Reiki helped me find my way back, may you find the same.
As a developing practitioner in the metaphysical space, I carry with me 21 years of dedicated clinical work, in diagnostic, and theragnostic nuclear medicine. I value my time, and experience connecting with patients at all points of care, in a hospital setting. My primary purpose in the hospital setting is to leave each person in a better state than when they arrived, this still rings true. Now, I bring this intention to the space of healing in Nectar, and the community beyond. I practice the honoring of the soul of every individual, in all walks of life. The position of Nectar is inclusiveness, and I stand by this fully. Advocating for those in need. Meeting you where you are at, respectfully embracing, listening fully.
Certified in Reiki, through Duke Integrative Medicine, and Subtle Wellness. I have breathwork, and meditation training to help the client connect with feelings of peace, and mental well-being. I am currently in training as an Aromatherapist, for more advanced use in future sessions.
You have the power to live by the drumbeat of your heart, instead of the drumbeat of the world.
Love yourself, love others, forgive yourself. We Rize Together!
Gratitude, Jason
