AIMEE'S PERSONAL ADVENTURE
A client asked me the impact of this work on my own life. At the most basic level, I revealed that it has made me more aware and alive-less defended. It asks me to see where I am in distortion about myself and others, and the places where I am not taking responsibility for my life—where I stay in the stagnant place of guilt and blame. The work teaches me to stay in the face of conflict and to even embrace it.
The work has reintroduced me to my body and taught me to be more conscious about how I use my energy. The physical work has helped me learn to tolerate my own feelings-- to tolerate my own life force energy. I credit the work with giving me the confidence to move on from my work as a corporate lobbyist and become a therapist—to build my own business.
I credit this work with supporting me in living with anxiety.
The work gave me the road map to navigate the profound experience of grief by asking me “Am I willing to show up in life in the face of death and loss, and if so how do I want to show up?”
The work gives me permission to make contact with my aggression, my passion, my demands, my gifts, my fears, my pride, my unwillingness, my cruelty and selfishness, my pleasure and mostly my heart. It says “bring all you got.” It reminds me to slow down and to take care of myself. It shows me how to be more responsible and present in relationship—how to navigate the dance between intimacy and isolation. It helps me see the total uselessness of labels and status and the awesomeness of experience, truth seeking and self-acceptance. Most importantly it has taught me the power of connection and community.
"Aimee is a mentor that invites you to take in and include the dark corners of internal space. There is an invitation and responSIVENESS to allowing what is present to emerge, and a personal understanding of how to work with what emerges. One rare gift that I do not see often is she speaks to you like a person, and without an authoritarian role- she invites you to learn to be with life as it comes and gain confidence and capacity to be your own authority figure."
