About Mia
"I delight in the simple wonders of life and find joy in motivating others to develop their uniqueness. My mission is to educate and encourage the use of alternative medicine and preventative therapies before unwelcome dis-ease, alcohol, chemical dependency, or social media become a controlling force in one's life." -M. Cara
Mia embarked on her spiritual journey in New York, USA. Due to a childhood illness that could prove fatal, she was confined for seven years and grew separate from the norm. To alleviate sadness, she began writing in a diary. Years of depression due to toxic relationships followed.
The Twelve Step program of Emotions Anonymous was instrumental in overcoming twenty years of prescription medication that weakened her mind and body. Creative writing and painting became a release that transformed her, and Native American Shamanic wisdom teachings uncovered fascinating truths crucial to spiritual development. Her true purpose was finally revealed. Combining Eastern philosophies and ancient healing modalities with the wisdom of her past experiences, Mia developed a heightened sense of awareness that led her to a degree as a Reiki Master Healer and Spiritual Advisor. She refined her skills and knowledge in Germany and became an ordained Interfaith Minister.
More than twenty years of professional experience in various art and healing therapies are well-received by individuals in Lifelong Learning Programs, Hospitals, Health Centers, Continuing Education, and Mental Health Facilities. During the COVID-19 global crisis, Rev. Cara relocated to the West Coast, where she shares her gifts of healing, art, and designs, which have been exhibited in shops and galleries in the US, Canada, and abroad.
The continuous journey to rise above the ongoing complexities of life is broadened by a powerful sense of Self and her foundation. She was honored in a United Nations documentary on Alternative Medicine, where she demonstrated her healing skills. Mia identifies with the Self-Realization Fellowship.
Mia's memoir is an illustrated parable presented at community homes for kids coming of age, bullied, or for anyone who feels depressed or stuck trying to 'fit in' a society that encourages co-dependency ( social media, comparisons, competition, etc.). Request an interactive video presentation here.
Look for Mia's memoir series, "Life Without Reservation," forthcoming. Representing 'the hero's journey from adversity to success'.
