Five years ago, Emilie Rawlings had a breakdown. She was overworking herself, the culmination of years of struggling with boundaries, specifically of time and obligation. She pushed herself constantly to be better, informed by an undiagnosed anxiety and drive for perfectionism.
Her breakdown was not just mental and emotional but physical, as well. Emilie found herself unable at one point to get out of bed, unable even to think. She was literally shutting down in every dimension of life.
As she lay unable to move, Emilie reached a decision. She determined to put herself first. At age 45, this marked the first time in her life she had done this.
It proved to be the turning point. Unable to do anything besides lay down and breathe, Emilie began breath work and meditation, even if not calling them by name. She focused on this, and in so doing turned her considerable drive and determination toward self-care.
Emile was unmade, and remade.
During this time, Emilie developed, quite organically, a process she calls "Seven Layers." She now teaches this process, which begins--as her journey did--with simple body awareness. Through this process, people can enter into timelessness.
Join us for this inspiring and very healing episode of Decide to Transform.
