Welcome! I’m Courtney and I’m so excited that you have landed here.

It was through the pursuit of my own spiritual journey that this website was created. It took me a long while  and a bit of courage to follow through.  I had to dig deep within my soul. But, when I asked myself: “would you leave this planet without doing this work?” The answer was a resolute and resounding NO, and tapping into my soul has been honestly, difficult,  but the  most rewarding journeys of my life. 

Our souls are directly affected  by the experiences in our lives; the traumas, the joys and everything in between..

I’ve been caring for people most of my life.  It wasnt necessarily intentional it was just how I interacted with prople, my friends, my family; a spiritual and traditional caregiver.  As a Virgo that shouldn’t be a surprise. I cared and I wanted to help heal in anyway I could, their souls included; It was more in my nature than it was intentional.   Caregiving is serious soul work. It shows up frequently in the challenges and the missteps, in the fatigue and the frustration and gratefully in the joys and rewards. The soul is in attendence throughout every moment. It’s not  suprising that I became a professional caregiver and have been for 6 years.   But, the real deal is I have been a caregiver most of my life. I cared for my mother, father and brother until they made their transitions,  I 

with the indirect intention to to spitritually tap into focusing on their  intentional focus on caring for souls. .  I  cared for my mother, brother and father before they made their transition. And I tend to care for everyone else as well.  I don’t believe it’s intentional. I believe its just a part of my being; in my nature to care. 

It only made sense that what my intentions are here are from my  

  Do we know our souls? Do we know that our soul’s require attention and care? At some point its important to explore our souls and make attempts to understand what our souls need. First we must get to the point where we acknowledge that souls exist. I believe most of us do. And in acknowledging our soul we must nurture and tend to them. After all our soul is our essence. It’s how we show up in the world. 

I am a caregiver, and the most important part of my caring for any loved ones or clients is the health of my soul. I maintain its health through a number of check-ins. I must be kind even when i am not being treated kindly. I must be aware of issues that I am carrying on my soul assuring that I don’t push them off in my caregiving responsibilities

The choice is ours either to care care for our soul, or do we ignore it?  Do we know how to nurture it? It’s possible that many of us don’t even know, understand, or feel our souls which would beg the question,   i and thus care for our souls.   

The soul is our essence, and how we show up in the world is dictated by the health of our soul. The need to nurture and care for my soul was most prevalent in my role as a caregiver. I began my soul-health journey when I became a caregiver for my husband. I began to understand how the quality of care was directly related to my soul. I was tested through all of my em otions good and bad. my patience, my resilience for complicated or difficult situations, some resentment and a considerable amount of fatigue as the years came and went.  I am moved to share what I have learned; to guide if there is a need or interest in exploring your own soul’s purpose. My purpose and mission is to nurture and support you in your soul exploration as I have also learned to do for myself and my husband, whose compromised health and struggle has solicited me to examine my soul heath on the regular. 

This website and the practices herein represent a lengthy pursuit of my own spiritual discovery. I came to realize that as a Massage Therapist, a Reiki Master, a Life Coach, a Spiritual Healer and a caregiver I have been engaging my soul in every aspect of these professions. But not surprisingly it was the caregiving that pushed me to explore my soul more  deeply; to discover that  my caregiving  is more  profoundly affected by the heath of my soul than any other enterprise
