Warning ... this woman heals broken souls! It was a gift of an experience to meet Aimee. She shone a light in to the fog for me in a way I just wasn't expecting. If you can be a little brave, peace and happiness is yours for the taking under the guidance of this beautiful, strong, insightful and intelligent woman - H, UK
I worked with many therapists, doctors and wellness professionals over many years as well as participating heavily in multiple 12 step programs. I experienced progress, but I was still struggling in some areas of my life - with food, relationships, low self esteem & with occasional bouts of anxiety and mild depression. Working with Aimee was completely transformative. Never had anyone given me such a clear sense of why I was the way I was and why I struggled in the ways that I did. This in and of itself was profoundly healing, like an enormous relief. In her words, she helped me ´"put the puzzle pieces in to place". The subsequent process and various practices that she took me through changed my life. Some of it was challenging but not for one moment did I feel alone in the process. I cannot thank her enough or recommend her more highly. Elizabeth - UK

. EMDR (Francine Shapiro)

´´Most of what we suffer with is trauma - old stress and emotional pain stuck in the system. Trauma can be an acutely distressing one time event such as a rape or mugging, or even seemingly simple things like a minor car crash or routine surgery. Trauma can also be caused by exposure to various forms of emotional stress over a prolonged period of time. Many of us had stressful and emotionally wounding childhood experiences because we are growing up in a society that is suffering collectively.
If we are in any way symptomatic - suffering with anxiety, depression, addictions, codependency, low self esteem, chronic pain or fatigue, immunity issues, chronic health problems etc ... we likely are suffering with some form of trauma (PTSD or Complex PTSD) - whether or not we understand why. Trauma is a fact of life and experiences that leave a trauma imprint take many forms, some virtually invisible to the untrained eye. Very often until we resolve the underlying trauma (original wound), we will continue to experience dis-ease or imbalance or struggle in one way or another. There is nothing wrong with us, something happened to us" - Aimee Rai
Aimee dedicates not just her career, but in many ways her life, to understanding and effectively treating the trauma that underlies most of our so called ´´issues´´.
We cannot simply talk our way out of trauma. In fact, in some cases talking will activate the trauma and make an individual worse not better. Trauma healing must be somatic, based in the body, as well as psychological and emotional. As such Aimee works with every client carefully to address not just the emotional wound but the physiological imbalance created by the trauma so that healing can unfold in a way that is both gentle and effective.

Aimee has been working with me for the past 10 months... I have been completely transformed from a lost and broken person, with no self worth, and with no confidence. I couldn’t stop drinking and couldn’t understand why. I didn’t want to be this person. I was in constant emotional pain. After 8+ years working a 12 step program & constantly relapsing, I felt like I was never going to find a way out of from the pain I felt within me. Aimee explained to me that it’s not my fault - that something happened to me. She showed me lots of tools to help me work through my trauma. Working with Aimee has shown me who I am. I have never felt better in all my years and it amazes me what my life has become. I am now nearly a year sober for the first time. I thank you Aimee from the bottom of my heart - Charlotte, Spain

Somatic Spirituality & The Embodied Path
Whether new to the path or decades down the line, at various stages along the spiritual way we often hit a block. We feel that there is more to unfold but that we no longer know how to access it. At this stage a teacher can be helpful.
Aimee is extremely skilled at guiding others to evolve their personal practice and self enquiry, helping to identify, unpack, and cut through whatever may be standing in the way of a deeper experience.
Aimee is non-dual teacher and advocate of the real raw spiritual journey, the kind that forms deep roots in our day to day lives. She believes that the spiritual path is the journey in to our humanity, not away from it, often citing the mantra ´´down and in, not up and out´´. She believes that the spiritual path is never meant to become another method of self escapism, but instead a practice of surrender in to all that is. She is not one for spiritual pleasantries or bypass, but one to help her students journey in to the grit and grace of their unique human experience. She believes that deep peace and radical freedom are available to us all.
