Hey friend, I’m Teresa!

I’m a lifelong homebody, recovering overthinker, and someone who knows what it feels like to crave rest but not know how to actually live it.

For years, I ran on overwhelm, high-functioning burnout, and the belief that I just needed to “try harder.” But eventually, my brain and body asked me to slow down—really slow down. What began as healing turned into a way of life.

 A gentle space for slowing down, tuning in, and tending to your whole self.

This space is for you if:

  • You feel scattered, overstimulated, or stuck in survival mode

  • You long for cozy routines and simple ways to feel better

  • You want to support your mind, body, and spirit without hustle or guilt
