When she’s not working or teaching, you’ll find Mary practicing yoga, working out, hanging with her family, or doing anything outdoors in nature.
My favorite deity or god/goddess
is: Quan Yin because she is the epitome of compassion.
You must try this healthy snack: Used to be cottage cheese and avocados with salt and pepper – now I can’t eat much cheese, so sad haha.
My favorite Sanskrit word or
phrase is: Om mani padme hum – this mantra played a large part in one of my first spiritual awakenings.
My advice for beginning yogis is: Make sure the teacher knows you are new to yoga and get the foundations down first.
I’m most grateful for: My support networks. I have a lot of circles of support and I don’t know where I’d be without all of them.
The most exotic place I’ve
practiced yoga is: I haven’t really traveled for yoga, but I’ve practiced on the beaches of Hawaii and Florida while on vacation.
If I could practice yoga with
anyone it would be: My mom because I love her and I love to see her do healthy things for her mind and body.
I’m always ready to take my yoga to the next level because: The journey is forever changing and I find that exciting.
My heroes are: Moms. Working moms, stay at home moms, MOMS ARE AMAZING. Nurturers. Filled with compassion. And often need much healing and self care.
My one wish for the world is: That we can be more loving and less fearful.
