The Four Agreements Approach to Mindful Self-Care
This course aims to guide you in understanding mindfulness, boundaries, and self-care.
We will embark on a journey to uncover our agreements and self-limiting beliefs, examining why we often prioritize others' needs over our own personal care.
- Identifying Boundaries: Learn to implement boundaries in your daily routine, allowing time for rest, recovery, and restoration.
- Setting New Agreements: Establish agreements that embrace mindfulness, self-care, self-compassion, and self-love.
- Mindful Practices: Engage in various mindful practices, including breathing exercises and yoga stretches, designed to calm and realign the body.
- Self-Reflection Questions: Reflect on questions such as:
- Am I a people pleaser?
- Do I often say yes when I really want to say no?
- What thoughts arise when I consider taking time for self-care?
Throughout the course, we will focus on creating boundaries that nurture our well-being and foster a healthier relationship with ourselves.

NCBTMB Continuing Education Provider Reiki Master • Trauma-Sensitive Yoga Teacher • Warrior Goddess
In 2016, I opened Creekside Wellness, a sweet little wellness studio in downtown Athens, Tennessee. What began as a small-town massage and yoga studio paired with a wellness and metaphysical shop and continued to evolve right alongside me.
Today, my work lives at the intersection of bodywork, lymphatic health, nervous system education, movement, and personal transformation.
I am honored to be a National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork (NCBTMB) Approved Continuing Education Provider, allowing me to share the knowledge, experience, and practices I have gathered throughout my years as a massage therapist, educator, yoga teacher, energy worker, and lifelong student.
Teaching has become an increasingly meaningful part of my path. I offer continuing education for massage therapists and wellness professionals, along with workshops, retreats, circles, and experiential learning opportunities designed to bring greater awareness to the body, the nervous system, and the way we care for ourselves and others.
Working With the Body
I continue to see clients for select sessions, including therapeutic massage, oncology massage, Thai massage, and Manual Lymphatic Drainage, as well as Reiki (energy work).
My work with the lymphatic system has become a particularly important part of my practice. Through years of study and hands-on experience, I have developed a deep appreciation for the relationship between lymphatic flow, the nervous system, movement, breath, and the body’s ability to regulate and restore.
I believe the body carries our stories—and that, when given safety, support, and space, it also has an incredible capacity to release, adapt, and restore balance.
My client work is not about “fixing” someone.
It is about creating a space where the body can be listened to, supported, and understood.
Nervous System Education & Coaching
Alongside hands-on work, I offer guidance and coaching centered around nervous system awareness, self-care, embodiment, and the wisdom of the Warrior Goddess path.
Since 2017, I have studied with HeatherAsh Amara, author of Warrior Goddess Training, exploring Leading with Love leadership, Warrior Heart coaching, and the Toltec path through awareness, integrity, and the practice of living The Four Agreements.
These teachings have deeply influenced the way I approach leadership, healing, relationships, boundaries, self-awareness, and the ongoing process of becoming more fully ourselves.
My coaching is not about telling you who to be.
It is about helping you listen more deeply to the wisdom that is already within you.
Yoga, Energy Work & Sacred Space
My own yoga journey began in the early 2000s. Since then, I have completed hundreds of hours of training through White Crow Yoga of Nashville, Sacred Awakening / Asmi Yoga of Oregon, Chattanooga Yoga Center, the davidji Meditation Academy, and Pranamaya, where I studied Functional and Yin Yoga under Paul Grilley.
Over the years, I have had the honor of teaching yoga teachers, attuning students to Reiki energy, facilitating healing retreats and women’s circles, and serving as a guest teacher and speaker for yoga teacher trainings, festivals, conferences, and special events.
Creating spaces where people can slow down, reconnect with themselves, and feel safe enough to explore their own healing has become one of the greatest privileges of my work.
The Mystical & Intuitive
There is also a wonderfully mystical side to my work.
I offer intuitive sessions including natal birth chart readings, tarot and oracle readings, and palm readings—not as a way of predicting a predetermined future, but as tools for reflection, curiosity, insight, and deeper connection with your own path.
I have always loved the places where the practical and the mystical meet.
The science of the body.
The wisdom of the nervous system.
The language of movement.
The intuition of the heart.
The stories we carry.
And the possibility that there is always more to discover.
My Own Healing Journey
When I first began my own healing journey, I carried many of the same thoughts I hear from others:
This isn’t for me.
I’m not flexible enough.
I’m too stressed.
I’ve been through too much.
I’m not fit enough.
What I discovered changed everything:
You don’t adjust your body to fit yoga.
You adjust your yoga to fit your body.
And perhaps even more importantly—
You don’t have to force your life to fit your expectations.
You can learn to move with the rhythm of life.
That philosophy has followed me through every chapter of my work.
The business has expanded and contracted.
My own practices have changed.
My understanding of healing has deepened.
And I continue to learn.
Because I believe being a healer means being a student, too.
