About creactive
Creative action for wellness, healing, and meaningful change
creACTive Yoga & Wellness is a trauma-informed, body-centered wellness space in Alabaster, Alabama offering yoga, yoga therapy, Reiki, sound and vibration relaxation, private sessions, workshops, local retreats, and custom group experiences.
creACTive was created from the belief that healing is not passive. It happens through small, meaningful actions — a breath, a movement, a moment of awareness, a choice to listen inward, and a willingness to begin again.
This is a space to move gently, breathe fully, listen deeply, and reconnect with the wisdom of your body.
Move. Breathe. Listen. Heal.
MEET EILEEN
Grounded experience. Compassionate presence. Body-based support
creACTive Yoga & Wellness was founded by Eileen Leslie, a trauma-informed yoga therapist, yoga teacher, Reiki Master, sound and vibration practitioner, and Air Force veteran.
Eileen’s work blends mindful movement, breath, embodied awareness, sound, energy work, and compassionate self-inquiry to support people in reconnecting with their bodies, nervous systems, and inner wisdom.
With a background that bridges discipline, investigation, service, and healing, Eileen creates grounded spaces where people can slow down, listen deeply, and take meaningful action toward wellness.
Eileen's path
From investigation to integration
Before founding creACTive, Eileen spent more than 20 years in forensic accounting, investigations, and analytical work as a CPA and Certified Fraud Examiner. Her earlier career taught her to look beneath the surface, follow patterns, ask better questions, and search for what had been hidden.
Today, that same depth of inquiry informs her healing work. Instead of investigating numbers, systems, or evidence, Eileen supports people in gently exploring the body, nervous system, breath, emotions, and lived experience.
The work is different now, but the intention remains the same: to uncover truth, restore connection, and support meaningful change.
Training & experience
Professional training rooted in embodied care
Eileen’s work is supported by formal training in yoga therapy, trauma-informed yoga, Reiki, sound and vibration therapy, embodied awareness, and years of professional experience in service, investigation, and deep listening.

THE APPROACH
Healing through safety, awareness, choice, and embodiment
The creACTive approach is trauma-informed, body-centered, and choice-based. Sessions may include movement, breath, stillness, sound, Reiki, dialogue, guided reflection, or quiet self-inquiry.
The goal is not to force release or fix the body. The goal is to create enough safety, support, and awareness for the body to reveal what is ready to be seen, softened, moved, or integrated.
Safety
Creating space where the nervous system can soften without force, pressure, or performance.
Awareness
Learning to notice what is happening in the body, breath, thoughts, emotions, and direct experience.
Choice
Honoring personal agency, pacing, consent, and the wisdom of the body.
Embodiment
Practicing presence, integration, and a deeper connection with yourself in everyday life.
