Meet Emily, Founder of Essential Ray
I hold space for the moment when something inside you is ready to change. When life is reorganizing. When a doorway has opened. When your system is asking for truth and tenderness in the same breath.
Through breathwork, coaching, somatic practices, and psychedelic informed support, I guide people into expanded states of consciousness and into the steady work of integration, where insight becomes embodied capacity.
Essential Ray is a sanctuary for those who want growth that feels inspiring and practical, rooted in the nervous system, and expressed in the way you live.
I have been guiding transformational work since 2008, with nearly two decades of experience in coaching, somatic practice, retreat based facilitation, and expanded state work. Over the past seven years, my focus has specialized in breathwork based nervous system regulation and integration.
Senior Trainer, Alchemy of Breath • Certified Psychedelic Practitioner • 500 HR E-RYT • Wellness Counselor
Support threshold moments with warmth, clarity, and deep listening
Guide expanded states of consciousness into integration that becomes lived capacity
Weave mind, body, and spirit without bypassing what is human
Mentor practitioners and facilitators to lead with authenticity, skill, and heart
Build community rooted in connection, joy, and shared growth
My journey of growth has crossed paths with Emily Ray Henderson multiple times now, my last experience was the Alchemy Journey. A truly beautiful and all encompassing experience. Body, Mind and Soul.
Emily has the gift of bringing together a meaningful circle of people, with powerful conversations and love. Through her receptive and reflective approach to facilitation (and ‘life coaching’), she guided me to shed light on the core beliefs I know (now) that haven’t been serving my higher self and I learned how to create new ones that serve me on my path.
Emily's retreat in Peru was without a doubt the most powerful experience of my life. I learned to follow my heart and instincts as opposed to over-thinking everything. It led me to change my career and increased my happiness to this day.
