- Jamie Anesi
I have always been a dreamer, a dancer, a poet. My journey has been about remembering the symbolic language of old, the language of the psyche, the spirit, the soul. I have noticed that no matter what our circumstances are in the present, we have a chance to encounter the rich, luscious mystery of life.
By allowing and accepting the mystery, we have a chance to claim our path, our symbols. I have heard the voice of many of my teachers say, “claim your life, own all aspects of yourself.” These words are the stepping stones to freedom because in order to become whole, the shadow and the light must be recognized, all must be explored.
It is one of the most profound honors of my life to have people trust me with their deepest wounds and to share their journeys of courage. I have learned the importance of being lost, the language of rain and storms, and the deep echoing of the mourning howl. I believe that by allowing and accepting the mystery of loss with its own timing, we have a chance to claim our path, our symbols. In order to become whole, the shadow and the light must be recognized, all must be explored.
