MY STORY.
Emiscah Rose is a somatic (body-based) healer, writer & highly sensitive heart-led human here to spark your body’s innate wisdom & capacity for healing. She is deeply devoted to the inner tending needed to heal from unresolved trauma/s, or simply put, the wounds, unfelt emotions & imprints we have held inside our bodies, preventing the truest expression of who we were born to be.
Unresolved childhood trauma showed up in her late 20s as chronic high-functioning and eventually debilitating anxiety disorders, frequent panic attacks, a developing autoimmune disease, crippling perfectionism and fear, low self-worth, self doubt and more. Through her explorations, she has come to understand that all of her chronic ‘anxiety’ sensations, limiting beliefs, intrusive thoughts & somatic symptoms were messages from her intelligent body, leading her towards healing, and a returning to her true self.
It wasn’t until she learned how to listen to the wisdom of her body and tend to her wounds, that she was able to heal to the degree that she has. She has journeyed through 15+ years of her own inner work and continues to do ‘the work’. Through a consistent practice of reconnecting to the wisdom of her body, soothing her nervous system and tending to her inner child, along with incredible support from trauma-informed therapists, healers, holistic practitioners, practices and modalities, she has managed to heal a diagnosis of generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, agoraphobia, debilitating heart palpitations, severe health anxiety, borderline autoimmune disease, and other stress-related chronic health conditions.
She is now guiding other heart-centered, sensitive and creative women; teaching them how to re-connect deeply with the wild and innate wisdom of their body, heal their wounded inner child & develop a felt-sense of inner safety so that they can bloom into their true self & dream life.

Beyond my formal training, my most valuable and important training has been my lived experience of various processing and integrative modalities. These include EMDR, Compassionate Inquiry, Somatic Experiencing, TRE, homeopathy, inner child work + reparenting, a consistent yoga practice, intuitive free-dance & movement and mentorship by my own mentors, practitioners & teachers. Born a highly-sensitive woman, I am of a lineage of healers through my mother’s family line. My great grandmother Rosa, who was Native American Indian, was the medicine woman of her small town. I have intentionally cultivated the capacity to hold the energy of my ancestral lineage and honor where I have come from. I have a strong felt-sense & intuitive insight that informs & directs the deeper intangible ways in which I work.
