“Living in a constant state of distraction and noise diminishes your intuitive intelligence. Practice being in silence. Soul-care is the path towards building the sanctuary of love, presence, and leadership within.”
Join me for an episode with Mara Branscombe, a woman who embodies the benefits of ritual as remedy and soul care, she shares her wisdom for bringing the sacred into our every day lives.
Mara Branscombe is a mother, writer, yogi, artist, teacher, mindfulness leader, ceremonialist and spiritual coach. She is the author of “Ritual As Remedy: Embodied Practices For Soul Care” and “Sage, Huntress, Lover, Queen: Access Your Power and Creativity Through Sacred Female Archetypes." Mara is passionate about weaving the art of mindfulness, self-care, creativity, mind–body practices, and earth-based rituals into her life and work, and she has been leading community ceremony since 2000.
An adventurous spirit, Mara has sailed across the Atlantic Ocean, trekked across the Himalayas, studied yoga in India, planted trees in Canada’s north, lived off the grid in a remote cabin in the woods, worked as a Waldorf (Steiner School) teacher, and then found her passion for dance and choreography. All the while yoga, meditation, mysticism and ritual have been at the heart of Mara’s journey. Her trainings in the Incan Shaman lineage and the Pagan tradition have greatly inspired her life’s work of earth-based, ceremonial, intentional, and heart-centered living and loving.
Mara currently lives in Vancouver, Canada with her husband and two daughters.
