I’m Emma Freeman, a heart-led Artist, Writer, Intuitive Energy Healer, Reiki Master, Massage Therapist and Healing Arts Teacher.

I love creating warm, loving, sacred spaces for myself and others for deep exploration, self-discovery, soul connection, contemplation and play. It’s what truly lights me up. I’m endlessly curious, deeply sensitive and love connecting with people, animals and trees through love and presence.

My own difficult healing journey through addiction, trauma, an eating disorder, physical pain, anxiety, depression, grief and loss led me into the world of healing and spiritual exploration.

What I continue to learn is that healing is not quick fixing, even though so often I have wanted that fast cure for various things I have struggled through in my life. Healing is a very challenging and rich journey inward to connect and feel, to listen to parts of myself that are desperate for my love and attention that I have only been able to hear by slowing down and learning how to be in silence and stillness after years of running, numbing and avoiding. When I have been brave enough to do that tender and vulnerable inner work, again and again, parts of me begin to speak and feel heard that were silenced or buried and I feel a sense of relief and spaciousness, I feel a depth of being and wisdom express itself, I feel free from what had been hurting me and I feel more present, more fully alive, more joy, more fulfillment, more peace. That is what healing means to me. I continue to learn and grow through this ongoing journey and it all helps me feel more deeply connected to myself and to this world, to this life. What a profound gift that is.

But it is not easy or fast work. It is slow, mindful work. It takes commitment, determination, courage, strength and curiosity and can feel incredibly lonely, confusing and isolating at times.

It has been through this healing journey that I have felt deeply called to share my experiences and dive into learning various healing modalities to support myself and others on healing journeys as we work collectively to recover our light, our true and powerful nature, which is love. That’s how Deep Rooted Healing was born.
