Amanda Anderson, BS: Reiki Master Teacher and Wellness Coordinator
Amanda believes that the body has extraordinary self-healing capabilities that simply need to be recognized to tap into. Understanding the body, mind, and spirit connection became her dedication while completing her Bachelors of Science with 3 holistic majors: Psychology, Clinical Counseling, and Biomedical Science. While pursuing additional Naturopathic studies in Arizona, reiki healing touch accompanied by sound and herbalism became her heart’s devotion. She is new to the Starkville area, and treasures her additional roles as a mother, gardener, and goat-loving homesteader.
A reiki and sound session with Amanda encourages direction and restoration within the energy centers, bringing forth an inner sense of emotional harmony, balance to the wake/sleep cycle, and an increase to mental clarity and focus. Her herbal treatments seek to boost the lymphatic system and strengthen the immune system. She specializes in Bon Monk Tibetan Advanced Reiki, Crystal Singing Bowl Baths, Tuning Forks, Medicine Card Readings, Flower Essence Tinctures, and Herbal Cleansing Cocoons. Additionally, she has extensive knowledge of CBD products and will help you feel empowered navigating Soulflower’s apothecary.

Juan Corrigan, LMT #113
Juan states his philosophy in healing is that things are interconnected. While attending college for his bachelors and masters, he worked in the fitness field and physical therapy and learned how healing came from staying fit and rehabbing the injuries that came with life. Physical therapy opened the massage therapy world and that brought more awareness in how healing is performed. The body is designed to heal but it heals faster with mind and emotion working together. He is constantly learning how amazing our body is and when you actually start to know your awareness, things begin to change and miracles begin to happen.

Hunter Smith: Artist in Residence
In an increasingly intangible and impersonal world, the handmade challenges us to think, feel, and connect. It is the subtle variations and human irregularities of such objects that intrigue and attract. In truth, I feel that beauty is sometimes more a product of what is “imperfect” than what is “perfect.” My interest in clay is rooted in my love of tactility and the hope that I might better understand perfect imperfection.
I particularly enjoy making functional work because these pieces are meant to be handled and interacted with - having the potential to become an intimate part of someone’s day to day life. It is my belief that a well made cup or bowl can transform something as seemingly mundane as a simple meal or coffee break into something more ritual and meaningful.
