In out-of-the-way places of the heart,

Where your thoughts never think to wander,

This beginning has been quietly forming,

Waiting until you were ready to emerge.

—JOHN O’DONOHUE

Hi Everyone,

My heart is open wide as I share a new beginning from The Mindful Light. This September I am offering a program that could change your life or the life of someone you love. I am so honored to be teaching it.

Created by experts in the field of addiction and mindfulness, this innovative program helps people recovering from addiction or looking for support to change their addictive behaviors.

Who hasn’t been touched addiction these days, either your own or someone you love?? My beautiful niece Anna Elizabeth Carter passed from a drug overdose in 2021 after completing a year of recovery then relapsing. Drug addiction is a crisis in our country. Add to that, many of us find ourselves addicted to social media, overspending, food, smoking or having yet one too many glasses of wine at night.

On the heels of this heartbreak, I discovered teacher training for a program offering a fresh approach to recovery from addiction and relapse prevention called Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention for Addictive Behaviors (MBRP). Because I know firsthand how much mindfulness and meditation have changed my life and that of my clients (mentally, emotionally and physically), I felt compelled to complete the training and offer it to the ‘world.’

With the help of a gifted website designer, I now have an awesome place for you learn more about the program and register. There are many traditional approaches to recovery and yet there is still a great need for innovation and growth in this field given the rising rates of addiction and the challenges faced in recovery. We have outgrown a one size fits all approach.

MBRP is part of this innovation and growth and

backed by evidence-based research.

MBRP may be the best fit for you or someone you love right now. Please click the link below to take the next step and light up your life with recovery.

One more very important thing. I need YOUR help to spread the world about this amazing program. Here are two simple things you can do:

1. Forward this email to family, friends and coworkers.

The program starts on September 19th and with your efforts in spreading the word, many more people will have access to this program. Thank you for your support and your generous spirit.

Much Love, Mary
