About Mia
Mia embarked on her creative, spiritual journey in New York, USA. Due to a childhood illness that could prove fatal, she grew separate from the norm. Creative Writing helped alleviate sadness. Years of depression due to toxic relationships and a near-death experience followed. Prescription medication altered her mind and weakened her body. Working the 12 Step program of Emotions Anonymous was instrumental in conquering twenty years of prescription medication. Creative writing and painting became a healthy release that transformed her. She immersed herself in Native American Shamanic wisdom teachings, which uncovered fascinating truths crucial to spiritual development, and her true purpose was 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 knowledge and skills in Germany as an ordained Interfaith Minister.
More than twenty years of professional experience in various art and healing therapies are well-received by individuals, in hospitals, Continuing Education, Mental health facilities, and Lifelong Learning Programs.
During the COVID-19 global crisis, Rev. Cara relocated to the West Coast, where she shares her gifts. Her art and designs 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 connects with Buddhism and the Self-Realization Fellowship.
"I delight in the simple wonders of life and find joy in motivating others develop their uniqueness. See Workshops. 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'd memoir from childhood to maturity is an illustrated parable about the adventures of a growing girl who leaves home early in life in search of her destiny, and what she sacrificed in order to find it. It's presented at community homes for kids coming of age, or for anyone who feels depressed trying to 'fit in' in a society that encourages co-dependence, i.e. social media, comparisons, competition, etc.
