Emily Peasley
Spiritual Director, Dream Worker, Boundless Compassion Facilitator
My History
Since I was a child I have felt drawn to the inner life, listening to the wisdom within and following the Divine. Mystery has always caught my attention and caused me to wonder at all of creation. After 25 years pastoring United Methodist Churches, listening deeply to people of all ages, the Divine has called me to spiritual direction and dream work. I am trained in spiritual direction through the PrairieFire program at the Mind and Spirit Counseling Center in Des Moines, Iowa, dream work at the Haden Institute and compassion work through Boundless Compassion.
My Call
To walk with others on their spiritual journey, listening deeply and asking questions, as they grow in their relationship with the Divine and become more of who they are called to be on their journey of healing and wholeness.
Soul Listening
...is a journey of healing and wholeness.
How many times have you just wanted to be listened to? Not judged, not given advise, not fixed but simply provided a safe, confidential space by someone you can trust and will willingly walk with you on your journey wherever you are in life? My guess is that we have all been there multiple times. We haven’t always had someone to share with nor the safe place to be in that allows us to just be who we are, stay silent if we need silence or speak and do what we need to speak and do. There don’t seem to be a lot of people whom we would feel comfortable sharing our feelings and maybe they seem too busy.
Soul listening is deep listening. My belief from studying texts, listening to wise people past and present is we were not put us on earth in isolation booths but to live with and among each other, to walk with each other on our journeys so we can be as healed and whole as possible in service to one another and the world. We need each other!
Spiritual direction is a listening ministry providing safe space to accompany you wherever you are on your journey. I would be happy to listen deeply to you.
