Mover Monday: Mara Mehdy
This Monday, our mover is on a path to help others through her holistic approach to healing. She helps people to lean into their individuality while deepening their connections with spirit. After switching careers from the fashion industry to holistic health, she took a year of self-discovery and went on her own personal healing journey. Now, she wants to share those gifts with her community. She offers people ways to incorporate actionable practices to help and inspire others to move forward in life. It is our pleasure to encourage you to read on about this radiant light, Mara Mehdy!
Moved LA: How would you describe yourself?
Mara: Hi I'm Mara! I am a certified Human Design Reader and Usui Reiki Master (RMT). I offer Human Design readings that help people align with their most authentic selves, lean into their individuality, and deepen their connection with spirit.
Moved LA: What’s your story? How did you get started? What do you do?
Mara: After working in the fashion industry for 10 yrs, I took the leap and quit my corporate job in 2015. I traveled to Bali to practice yoga and meditation and became a Reiki Master. Shortly after I was introduced to Human Design. Once I learned about and started implementing these practices into my everyday life things began to change. My healing truly journey took off. Throughout this self-discovery process, I felt deeply called to share this wisdom with others in the community.
Moved LA: Who is your role model, and why?
Mara: I have so many amazing and accomplished women that I look up to! My grandma is probably one of my biggest role models. She just had her 90th birthday and is a true angel in my life. She is the most supportive, thoughtful person, and every day I strive to be more like her.
Moved LA: If you could give everyone one piece of advice about living with more intention, what would it be?
Mara: Be your most authentic yourself. Let go of the "shoulds". We are all such unique and special beings and we should embrace our individuality as the strength it is!
Moved LA: If you could have a superpower, what would it be? Why?
Mara: For sure Astral Projection!!! To be able to exist outside of the body would be so rad!
Moved LA: What are your top three favorite things to do when you need to relax and have fun?
Mara: Baking vegan treats in my kitchen, taking care of my many plants and my morning meditation is a must!
Moved LA: Who are the top three people/companies you're following online to stay informed?
Mara: @jessicayellin @girlgaze @natgeo
Moved LA: What is up next for you and your company?
Mara: Recently, I began integrating meditation and intuitive guidance into my Human Design practice, and it has been a wonderful addition that I hope to expand upon. I include a small meditation at the beginning of a session, and at the end of our time together, I offer actionable practices at the that you are encouraged to experiment with moving forward.
