Who IS Emily Vesta?
🙁 Growing up as an athlete I was taught to ignore my body and stuff down my feelings. It was reinforced in the Military. While I was really great at this, I also suffered in silence with anxiety and had a ton of anger that frequently boiled over and damaged most of my relationships, leaving me in periods of depression, shame and guilt.
☹️ I frequently checked out and avoided my life all together by misusing alcohol, marijuana, sex, over shopping or staring blindly into my phone screen or television to "cope."
😡 Years later, during ANOTHER heated argument with my spouse..... on my Birthday..... over my actual age..... and finding out that I'd lost almost two years in my current downward spiral; not only was I embarrassed, but I was READY to change.
🙂 So, I went back to traditional therapy and continued my self-development education with trainings around trauma and resilience, shadow work healing, mindfulness, body awareness, non-judgement, self-acceptance and presence.
🚑 It was when I inter-weaved them, I found THIS was the KEY to unlocking my personal triggers -mental and emotional, how my body responded and how EVERYTHING was and IS connected.
🧐 Using this insight as a roadmap, I now navigate from a space of Inner Wisdom.
🌈 I've built self-trust by honoring my body's needs and making confident decisions. I'm rarely triggered (hey, I'm human too!) since creating healthy boundaries, which naturally lowered my stress, soothed my anger and lifted my depression. My marriage feels more connected and passionate, my adult son calls me "Best Friend" and I have loving relationships with the people in my life because I'm able to be fully present.
🌞 Most importantly, I enjoy my sober and clean life full of fun, expressing myself through ART and helping other Women!
❤️ I'm a Licensed Art of Feminine Presence Teacher. I hold Certifications as a Transformational Coach, Trauma-Informed and Addiction Recovery Yoga Teacher, Physical Therapy Technician, Fitness Instructor, Massage Therapist and Conflict Resolution & De-escalation Support Person. I'm also a Reiki Master, Healing Minister and studied with Marianne Williamson as a Miracle-Minded Coach. Most recently I've stepped out of my 'dis'comfort zone and become an Artist. I love learning and evolving!
😍 Looking back over the last 30 years in my life, I can clearly see that all of my jobs, education, self-development and eclectic experiences have led me to bring it all together with a passion to share with other Women.

Gratitude:
I would NOT have achieved so much without the guidance of Mentors and Wise Women, cuddles from my dogs and cats, Moonbathing under the sparkling stars, daydreaming with the clouds, the healing hugs of Trees, feet sunk deep into the warm sand of the cold waters, Mother Nature and all the creepy little creatures, my deepening connection with Our Creator, the loving support and constant encouragement of my beloved spouse.....and my willingness to become comfortable with the uncomfortable for the Soul Purpose of Service to other Women.
