"I had an incredible experience! Aimee created a sacred week that nurtured, challenged, held and stretched me. I left knowing and loving myself more deeply. The writing circle was beautifully held - I always trusted the rhythm and sacredness of the circle. I liked the variety of prompts, and valued how Aimee held space for all that unfolded. There was something so powerful about (mostly) only sharing our written words in the circle - it brought out a rawness and realness that I don't often experience in groups. Aimee is a skilled facilitator. I admire how she brings strength, solidity, and softness while making room to follow the needs and energy of the group. She modeled for me what it means to lead on one's own terms. The setting was gorgeous, comfortable, and food delicious. I loved starting my days with Robin’s yoga. I appreciated her invitational approach, and I liked how she wove stories, scents and sounds into the practice. I loved Kanika’s kindness, warmth, creativity, and power in embodied expression. She created such an encouraging, exploratory space that honored presence. My favorite thing about being part of this retreat was having a whole week to allow myself to receive. Everything was so thoughtfully designed and led with such grace. I will take away many things: the wonder of strangers forming community with ease, the beauty of expressing myself freely, the honor of witnessing others, the gift of being uncomfortable and shedding layers and the joy of allowing myself to be guided and receive."
