Emily Carson has dedicated over 25 years to the in-depth study and practice of contemplative, esoteric, mystical, and meditative spiritual traditions and systems from diverse cultural traditions, including:

• Zen, Tibetan, and insight Buddhist meditation and doctrine

• Contemplative prayer, solitude and silence practices, and Christian mysticism

• Advaita Vedanta, original Yoga, self-realization sutras, and non-dual teachings

• A Course in Miracles, The Voice of the Silence, Tantra, and esoteric systems

• Taoism, Ramana Maharshi’s jnana yoga, and self-surrender practices

A graduate of Reed College, she worked early in her career with domestic violence survivors, refugee children orphaned by war, the homeless, victims of violent crimes, veterans, and people suffering from mental illness and addiction. She has provided spiritual counseling to individuals and groups for over two decades. She guides people of all faiths and backgrounds in how to use the experiences that most frighten us to transcend our personal limitations and finally fulfill our spiritual potential. She works extensively with the core issues that hold us back as human beings, including:

• Severe trauma and abuse

• Serious illness and the dying process

• Death and loss of love

• Crises of identity and purpose

• Self-doubt and self-loathing

• Anxiety, depression, and despair

• Spiritual crossroads, plateaus, and dead-ends

Emily applies the techniques and principles of the ancient wisdom traditions to return you to that state of grace that is possible not in spite of, but because of, all that haunts you. Approaching this process with courage and surrender, deep transformation is possible. Expect:

• Renewal of your relationship with God/divinity and your own soul

• Fearlessness and sovereignty in the face of those things that terrorize you

• Clarity and strength in your speech and actions

• Power over your most toxic thinking

• Full embrace of every experience

• Loving cooperation with and acceptance of the human community
