Wise Path
The School of Subtle Energy & Sacred Practice
The Story
Wise Path is a school for seekers and a home for practitioners. It exists for the ones who have always sensed there is more, and are finally ready to learn the language for it.
I offer intimate, in-person training in energy medicine, intuition development, and the sacred arts, rooted in ancient wisdom and the living intelligence of your own energy body.
This is not every education. This is the one that cannot be found in a classroom. You were drawn here for a reason. Trust that.

2026 Upcoming In-Person Classes
You have felt it before. A knowing that arrived before the logic did. A pull toward something you couldn't explain. A voice, quiet but certain, that you talked yourself out of listening to.
That was your intuition. And it has never stopped trying to reach you.
Most people treat intuition like a gift you either have or you don't. The truth is that intuition is a skill, one with identifiable channels, trainable sensitivity, and a daily practice that makes it stronger over time. In this in-person intensive, we treat it exactly that way.
Over the course of a full day together, we work through all seven intuitive channels, the clairs, exploring what each one feels like, how to recognize which ones are most natural to you, and how to begin deliberately developing the ones that aren't. We draw from energy medicine, somatic awareness, and the wisdom of divination tools as training wheels; not as the destination, but as a way of helping your body learn to trust what it already knows.
Then, three to four weeks later, we come back together for a two-hour integration session. Because intuition development doesn't happen in a single day, it happens in the weeks of practice that follow one, and having a place to bring your questions, your breakthroughs, and your doubts makes all the difference.
This is not a psychic reading. This is not about predicting the future. This is about learning to hear yourself; clearly, consistently, and without constantly second-guessing what comes through.
No prior experience required. Just the willingness to pay attention.
In-person | Austin, TX | Full day intensive + 2-hour follow-up session | Limited to 8 students | Investment: $233
NEXT CLASS: 11/14/26 10:00 am - 4:30 pm (follow up will be scheduled 3 - 4 weeks later)
Tarot, Oracle & Sacred History; An Introduction
Every card has a story. Every symbol carries centuries of meaning. And somewhere beneath all of it, your own intuition is already awake and waiting to be heard.
Roots of the Reading is where your journey with the cards begins, not with memorization, not with rigid rules, but with history, context, and the lived experience of actually sitting with a deck in your hands and letting it speak.
In this in-person half-day workshop, we start at the beginning. We trace the origins of tarot and oracle cards; where they came from, how they evolved, and why they have endured as tools of self-inquiry and inner wisdom across centuries and cultures. From there we move into practice; exploring both the technical language of the cards and the intuitive reading style, so you understand not just what the cards mean, but how to develop your own authentic relationship with them. We also explore the meaningful differences between tarot and oracle decks, and how each serves a different kind of question.
You will leave with your own tarot deck, a binder of reference materials and handouts to build on over time, and a genuine foundation, not just information.
This is the first class in the Roots of the Reading series at Wise Path. Each class in the series stands beautifully on its own, and flows even more richly when taken in sequence.
Everything is provided. Just show up ready to learn.
In-person | Austin, TX | 3β4 hours | Limited to 8 students | Investment: $125
NEXT CLASS: 11/21/26 1:30 - 5:00 pm (central)
You feel everything. Other people's moods, the energy of a room, the emotional weight of a conversation that happened hours ago. You leave crowded places exhausted. You absorb what isn't yours and don't always know how to put it down.
This workshop was made for you.
In this live online workshop, you will learn exactly what is happening in your energy body when you feel overwhelmed, scattered, or depleted, and more importantly, you will leave with a practical, body-based toolkit to change it. Drawing from my years of study and practice in Eden Energy Medicine and the meridian system, we go beneath the surface of generic grounding advice and into the how and why of what actually works. Grounding is a living area of study for me, and every time I teach this material I bring the most current and refined understanding of it directly into the room with you. You are not getting a recorded version of what I once knew. You are getting what I know right now.
You will learn to work directly with the meridians most responsible for your sense of safety, containment, and earth connection, and you will practice each technique live so you leave knowing it in your body, not just your notes.
This is not a lecture. This is an experience.
You will leave with:
A clear understanding of why sensitives feel what they feel energetically
Step-by-step meridian-based grounding techniques you can use anywhere, anytime
Tools for setting energetic boundaries without shutting down
A digital reference guide to keep and return to
This workshop is for you if:
You identify as an empath, a highly sensitive person, an energy worker, or simply someone who has always felt things deeply and wants to understand why, and what to do about it.
No prior experience required. All you need is a device, some floor space, and the willingness to show up.
Something is calling you toward this work; and that call is worth listening to.
Reiki Level I is your entry point into one of the most accessible and profound healing modalities available. In this in-person, one-day intensive through Wise Path, you will receive your Reiki attunement, learn the history and principles of the tradition, and leave with the hands-on skills to offer healing to yourself and others from day one. We go deep into the why of grounding your body before and after energy work, using a meridian-based framework that sets this training apart, so that you walk away not just attuned, but truly prepared to practice with confidence and clarity. You will receive a full student manual, a certificate of completion, and a foundation that will serve your healing practice for the rest of your life.
This is for the beginner who feels ready. No prior experience required, only an open heart and a willingness to show up.
Trained as an educator (2003), certified practitioner in Eden Energy Medicine (2026), and initiated as a Reiki Master Teacher (2020), Nicole doesn't just teach Reiki; she lives it.
NEXT CLASS: 9/26 FULL 10/24 FULL 11/28 open 10:00 am - 5:00 pm (central)

While Reiki can be explored in many ways, there is something that happens in a room together that no screen can replicate; and this training is built around that.
When you arrive, you are a person who is curious about energy healing. When you leave, you are an attuned Reiki practitioner with the knowledge, the tools, and the lived experience to begin working on yourself and others immediately.
The attunement is permanent, it does not wear off, does not need to be renewed, and cannot be taken away.
The day is structured to move you from understanding into experience. We build the foundation first; history, principles, the science behind why this works, and the meridian-based grounding practice that sets this training apart.
Grounding is not an afterthought here. It is the foundation we build everything else on, and you will practice it in the room until it lives in your body, not just your notes.
By the time you receive your attunement in the afternoon, your channel will already be opening.
You will leave with your manual, your certificate, your grounding toolkit, and a practice that is yours to keep and grow.
Reiki I is the beginning of a path. For those who feel called to continue, Wise Path offers the complete Reiki training pathway; each level building on the last, each one deepening your capacity to heal, serve, and teach (offered monthly).

Closing and next steps -
You can learn a lot online. But learning to hear yourself clearly, to trust what arises before your mind has a chance to talk you out of it, that is the kind of practice that needs a real room, real people, and someone who can help you recognize what is already happening in your body.
And that is exactly what this training is built to give you.
Intuition is not a personality trait. It is not something you were either born with or without. It is a set of perceptual channels that every human being has access to, and like any skill, the more you practice it with intention and structure, the clearer and more reliable it becomes.
The morning is devoted to the foundation. We establish a shared language for the seven clairs, work together to identify which channels are already most active in you, and begin practicing with them directly through guided exercises. You are not sitting and listening. You are in it from the first hour.
The afternoon goes deeper. We move through the subtler channels, work with divination tools as training aids rather than fortune-telling devices, and explore the somatic and meridian practices that help your body become a more sensitive and trustworthy receiver of your own inner knowing.
By the end of the day you will have worked with all seven clairs, in real time, with real support. You will know which ones light up most naturally for you and you will have a daily practice framework that is built around your specific intuitive type, not a generic template.
Then, three to four weeks later, we come back together for the follow-up session. This is where the real development happens. You bring what arose when you practiced on your own: what felt clear, what felt murky, what surprised you. We troubleshoot together, deepen what is already opening, and refine your practice for the long term.
Most workshops end when the day does. This one does not.
Offered twice a year, in March and September. Limited to 8 students per intensive.
Tarot, Oracle & Sacred History; An Introduction
Every card has a story. Every symbol carries centuries of meaning. And somewhere beneath all of it, your own intuition is already awake and waiting to be heard.
Roots of the Reading is where your journey with the cards begins, not with memorization, not with rigid rules, but with history, context, and the lived experience of actually sitting with a deck in your hands and letting it speak.

You do not need to know anything about tarot to walk through this door. You need only curiosity.
Roots of the Reading is designed to give you two things at once, the historical and structural foundation that makes the cards make sense, and the direct experience of actually using them so that foundation lives in your hands, not just your head.
We spend the first part of the morning in the history, because understanding where these tools came from changes the way you hold them. Tarot has a rich, layered, often surprising past, and knowing that history gives you a relationship with the cards that goes far deeper than memorizing definitions.
From there we move into practice. We work through both technical and intuitive approaches because both matter, the technical gives you a reliable framework, and the intuitive gives you the freedom to trust yourself within it. By the end of the morning you will have used both, with real cards, in real time, and you will know the difference in your body.
You leave with your own deck, your binder, and a beginning that is genuinely yours.
Roots of the Reading is the first class in a four-part series at Wise Path. The series continues with:
Branches, Expanding Into Sacred Tools, deepening your practice with a wider range of divination tools
The Ancestorsβ Thread, Reading for Lineage Connection, using the cards as a bridge to ancestral wisdom
Wild Practice, Tarot, Ritual & Witchcraft, weaving the cards into sacred ritual and craft
Each class stands alone and welcomes new students. The full series is designed to take you from curious beginner to confident, grounded, deeply rooted reader.
Offered twice a year. Next date: July 19, 2026.

You can learn a lot from a recording. But practicing grounding techniques for the first time alone, with no one to guide you through what you are feeling or adjust what you are doing, is a very different experience from doing it live with someone who has spent years working with this material and can meet you exactly where you are.
And that is exactly what this workshop is built to give you.
This is a live, interactive online workshop, which means you are not watching someone teach from a distance. You are in the room. You are practicing in real time. You are asking questions and getting answers that are specific to you, not a pre-scripted response recorded months ago.
The workshop moves through the meridian framework I use in all of my energy medicine teaching, covering the four meridians most closely tied to grounding, safety, and earth connection. We do not just talk about them. We work with them together, on screen, so that by the time the session closes the techniques live in your body rather than sitting as information in your notes.
This material is also living and growing for me. Grounding through the meridian system is an area I continue to study, refine, and deepen in my own practice. Every time I teach this workshop I bring the most current version of my understanding into the room. You are not getting a fixed recording of what I once knew. You are getting what I know right now, which is always more than it was the last time.A recording of the session will be available for a limited time after the live date so you can revisit the practices as you integrate them. But the live experience is the heart of it, and that is where the real shift happens.
This workshop is offered online QUARTERLY and open to participants anywhere in the world.
Investment: $97 | No prior experience required
