Emily's Healing Journey

Hi, my name is Emily. I am a dance movement therapist and embodied movement teacher, healer, and mindfulness practitioner. This is my website:  www.lifedancewithemily.com (right click here to open in new tab)
Helping people to come together, release stress, express themselves creatively, and find their power and joy and feel a deep sense of peace within themselves amidst their struggles is my passion. Up until recently I was dancing actively for a living, helping elders in a psychiatric setting,  dancing with elders in a nursing home and providing workshops in the community. 

Today I am in a financial crisis as a result of medical bills for the treatment of injuries sustained from car accidents and Lyme disease that were not covered by my insurance and that greatly reduced my capacity to work from 2014 to present. Due to the unexpected chronic nature of my injuries, I have now had to leave my jobs, and am currently using the time to heal and envision how I can use my skills as a dance movement therapist in a more gentle way as a process therapist integrated with breathing and mindfulness and gentle movement, while giving me an opportunity to expand my teaching, workshops and private practice. 

Your help at this critical moment, would be such a gift to me. As I am creating this bright future out of the ashes of the old, one that will be easier on my body, and one that involves much more actively sharing my gifts with the world as a teacher, I am facing a huge amount of debt and no income at the moment, while I make this shift. The debt I have accrued over the last 2 years from medical bills and reduced ability to work due to Lyme, and car accidents is now $16,000. For the full story of my recent journey, (right click here:  to open link in new tab).  

I want to continue to serve the world in a greater capacity with my teaching and healing work. I know I am here for a purpose to help others, and that the skills I have developed as a dance movement therapist are a big part of that, as I now find new ways to apply and expand them. This purpose hums brightly in my heart while I write this, and hopefully my story will help others on their path of healing as well. With your help, support and generosity, I continue to do so.

With infinite gratitude and many blessings from the bottom of my heart,

Love,

Emily
