Emotional Support Services for Highly Aware

Founder's Story and Services
Aila Arya Anam (formerly Paula Green) received her B.S. in Biochemistry at Loyola Marymount University. After working in the Biomedical Field at UCLA for 8 years, she became ill from the chemicals she was working with. This initiated a journey of self-discovery which redirected her work towards human potential and community development. After several years assisting non-profits and community organizations, Aila decided to focus her attention on supporting youth and became trained in Expressive Arts Counseling.

For 23 years, Aila has been providing emotional support and coaching to Highly Aware youth and those who love and care for them. Her work developed as her own daughter demonstrated an unusual depth of purpose, curiosity and insight that seemed to shed new light on the World around her. Highly Aware people have a heightened sense of Self, Soul, and Surroundings which can often present challenges to them and their families while they are trying to thrive in environments that often don't recognize their gifts. Aila uses the term Highly Aware to transcend the current labels that are typically used to define these young people. Labels that don't acknowledge the entirety of their being. Labels such as
ADD Asperger's Autistic Dyslexic Twice Exceptional Indigo Star Seed Gifted Psychic.
Aila has worked both in private and school settings and applies an approach called the R * E * A * L * I * T * Y practice.

Ally * Counselor * Mentor

Aila combines a variety of trainings and over 25 years of experience to create a highly customized approach that affirms Highly Aware young people. As one parent highlighted, I am essentially an ally to those who seek me out. I offer a safe space for Highly Aware to be recognized and guided in expressing and exploring their expanded sensitivities, knowings and abilities according to their unique learning styles & rhythms.

Conscious Parenting Coach

Aila provides support for those who are raising or guiding Highly Aware Youth. Parenting Highly Aware young ones may prove somewhat trying if you are running old programs learned from your own family and culture. Adults often repeat or rebel against their upbringing; never Conscious of the background programs that drive their parenting and perpetuate limiting expectations. Conscious Parenting is not about perfection .
It is about learning to let go. Let Go... ✓of conditioned roles ✓of old messages ✓of pressure to have answers

Holistic Education Consultant

The educational journey can also be quite unique for Highly Aware. Aila provides insight into the different learning styles and which ones are active in your child and. Aila would like to remind us that EDUCATION comes from the Latin word educare which means "To Draw Out".
A booklet is available for sale that covers everything you want to know about a holistic educational journey . Included are perspectives and lists on current options, learning styles and community resources.

The Highly Aware Generations Express Through a Kaleidoscope of Realities.
They Shine Their Light So We May Also Know .

We can Support Them on their Mission.

R - Recognition & Reminding

The most potent support for the Highly Aware is non-judgemental observation and recognition of their propensities, rhythms and natural genius. Being seen as your authentic self, boosts a sense of value and belonging. This is especially true for Highly Aware because their ways of perceiving and relating are often outside the acceptable norms. Assume that they already have all the pieces they need to thrive. All you need to do is remind them of this and that they are so much more than just what is seen by others on the outside.

E - Encouragement & Enthusiasm

If being seen is the first step toward self-actualization, the second is being encouraged. When an adult encourages expression and exploration of the Highly Aware's nature, the young person learns to interact with their surroundings from a confident place. This encouragement is not about approval or pressure. It is about having calm, quality time with them in which you can mirror and stretch what is already being demonstrated. The level of authentic enthusiasm you feel when you interact, also offers precious moments of communication that will ripple through out their lives. It shows them they are fun to be with and that life is worth joyful engagement.

A - Affirmation & Ascending

Helpful affirmation is a neutral reflection of what you have quietly observed. If we witness accomplishment of a task or a creation, we can verbalize that we noticed their project or skill. This is not complimenting them but giving them a sense that they have a presence and impact on their environment. If we observe that they are expressing emotions, we can ask them about it. This is affirming their emotional bodies and that it is an important way of communicating who we are. We can ask things like "are you feeling proud, or frustrated or disappointed?" We should be mindful not to project onto them what we think they are feeling. When we affirm what they are expressing, it is also extremely valuable for Highly Aware to know the Higher View of their experiences. They are ushering in an unprecedented Era for Humankind and no other generation has been at this edge of our progression. We are moving from Homo Sapien (thinking Human) to Homo Luminous (enlightened Human). Every generation had their purpose with its unique set of challenges and gifts. The Highly Aware are not only going to challenge the status quo but Transform and Transcend it by helping us bring our shadow and light into harmony for an unlimited creative power.
This is not about idolizing or burdening them with a purpose. It is about knowing this in our hearts and allowing them to work their magic.

L - Love & Leveling

Of course we know that love is a medium for growth and worthiness. But it is in offering our own emotional vulnerabilities as we interact with Highly Aware that help them gain trust and assurance. Someone who is appropriately open and honest with their own feelings, offers a Love that embraces ALL aspects of Self and Other. Love is also demonstrated when we level our emotions with Groundedness and healthy Boundaries. Being grounded means we are fully present in our bodies in the NOW moment. If we are always multitasking or thinking of the future or past, we are usually not available to ourselves nor our children. Knowing healthy Boundaries actually provides a sense of quality relationship and respect to ourselves and to others. Being in an environment where healthy boundaries are practiced, assists a developing child to know what feels safe and loving to her and to others.

I - Insight & Imagination

As an adult, we have learned some ropes about the culture and world we live in. Yet, radical change is upon us. How do we provide guidance during times of uncertainty? Walking side by side with the new generations while navigating with open hearts, resilient minds, healthy bodies and a positive connection to Life, is the best way to demonstrate confidence in times of chaos . You don't have to have the answers, just the courage to show up. Our insights into the natural cycles of life and the purpose of change, provides stability. As a child knows best, using imagination as a means to playfully discover new ways of seeing and being will go a long way in today's world, now more than at any other time in our human history. Remember that there are always more than two opposing choices or perspectives in any given scenario. Our answers will always only reflect the level of our consciousness. And our answers can only match the level of awareness within the question. Highly Aware will often ask questions that seem simple but beg us to reflect on what we truly think and believe beyond how we have been trained to think.
SO....Be Curious and let the Creative Juices flow with possibilities. WHAT IF ? Highly Aware are in our lives to fully explore this question.

T - Truth & Tell

The current and upcoming generations are astute at reading energies. They can quickly detect behaviors that are not congruent. "Do as I say and not as I do" is no longer an option for interaction with them. In fact, they will most likely act out any incongruity in their surroundings. As adults in their lives, we must commit to becoming conscious of our own shadows, motivations and passions. This builds trust and opens channels for exchange that will inspire growth and genius for everyone. Talking about some things that we may be going through as adults helps a child see the adult as a non-idealized human going through human challenges and celebrations. This in turn gives the child permission to talk about their own human feelings. We DO need to be aware in our open conversations with them, that we are not looking to the child for our source of emotional support or unconditional love which Highly Aware children will likely be inclined to offer in all their wisdom and open heartedness.

Y - Young At Heart

Our ability to play is a great doorway to these young people. It's a letting go of perfection and production and opening to our INNOCENSE. Adults are not here to fill these beings up with knowledge from the past but to engage in an imaginative learning relationship. Be Child-like.

Letter to a Highly Aware 12 year old

This young girl, like many who I work with, sent a telepathic message to me several weeks before her mother found me and requested an appointment. The communications from Highly Aware youth will often come quite some time before I meet them in the form of an image, song or synchronicity. I will share these communications with parents who I think would appreciate the information and I always receive confirmation that the communication was highly relevant to the child, household or family.
Depending on the development of each child, I find it important to reach out to them before they actually come to see me. This will either be in a recorded or texted message through the parent's cell number or directly to older youth.
Highly Aware have a myriad of ways in which they like to receive information:
Visual, Verbal, or in Writing.... among many other modes.
Reading can be difficult for some .

Dear Marlo,

Your mom contacted me because she thought it would be great for me to get to know you. I think maybe you have
some ideas and experiences that could help me with the other youth I also meet.
I work professionally with young people ranging from babies, to teens, to 20 year olds who have a Brilliance about them.
They also will have things in common like feeling they don’t belong, or they don’t look like they should, or they have
thoughts, visions or abilities they feel shy or unsure about or afraid of.
My own daughter taught me so much about life and myself. Things were not always easy for her but when she started to
accept and learn about her true self, she began finding she was connecting with others who shared similar things.
Before you and I spend time together, I would like to first send you a list of traits and questions for you to reflect on to see
which ones you think describe you right now or in your past. This is just a little snap shot. I know that these ideas may change
in the future or might be in the process of changing right now.
Seeing all your answers is meant to help me get a sense of how we can have the best time as we connect. If you like, I will
share my own answers when we get together in person.
I will also be sending the same lists to your mom and dad so I can get to know them too. In addition, they will be separately
answering a list that shows me what they think your traits are. It is always helpful to know how those close to us think.
I will NOT be sharing ANYTHING with them that you don’t want me to, unless, I feel that it has to do with your or other’s safety
and even then you and I will discuss it first.
I hope you have fun with your answers and I look forward to coming together to see how we can discover your true heart’s desires.
Aila
