In this video, I chat with David Black of Restore Hyper Wellness about the amazing services they provide, and their HydraFacial & CryoFacial event tomorrow night. I’ll be leading a meditation, so please come! See event details below.

David also talks about other upcoming events at Restore, including their 6-Month Anniversary Celebration and a new meditation series with my fellow lululemon ambassador, Pedro Luna. To learn more about Restore, visit https://restore.com/locations/boca-raton-fl/.

First, I just want to remind you of the importance of breathing. Using your breath is a way to center, to ground, to get really clear with our thoughts, with our emotions, with our energy. If you have not yet downloaded the app Insight Timer, I highly recommend that you do. It is something that was recommended to me on my last teacher training from one of my teachers, James. It’s really a great app with a lot of meditations on there for one minute, two minutes, meditations that you can do in the morning, at lunch time, or in the evening. But the pranayama is everything. Don’t hold your breath. Notice how you’re breathing, and keep it simple.

I also want to let you know about something happening next week. I am super excited that Barb and Michelle of Peaceful Mind Peaceful Life are bringing Rha Goddess to Boca Raton. This woman is so amazing and so inspiring. When I first learned about Rha, it was through my Spirit Junkie Master Class that I took last summer. This woman has so inspired me and elevated me, and she truly is such a gift. I feel like I manifested her to come to Boca because I thought how cool it would be if she came to Boca Raton. Then Michelle told me, I think a few months ago, you’re never going to believe who’s coming to Boca!

Rha is truly amazing, and no matter where you are in your life, I highly, highly recommend you go see Rha because she will help you. Sometimes in life we get stuck. We get stuck with the same patterns, we get stuck with making the same business decisions, and it’s so good to learn from someone or go to something to help us come out of the box. Something that we might have never thought of, looking at ourselves or something in business. She really inspired me so much this summer. She is a coach for Gabby Bernstein, and I am thrilled that she will be here with us. Rha will be here Thursday evening (March 5), at lunchtime on Friday (March 6) and Saturday morning (March 7).

I am so excited to also let you know that I am going to be giving somebody a three-day experience with Rha! All you need to do is send me what you’ve been working on for 2020. What are your dreams, what big goals are you working on, and where are you at? And you may win this three-day with Rha!

I am about helping you elevate on all levels, and that’s why I love yoga and meditation so much. You know, we’re only human and we get stopped, and it’s so important to always take a look at where we are in our lives and how we’re showing up, what thoughts do we have. It’s such a beautiful journey, and it’s work though. It’s a way to help us always expand, always take a look at where we need to grow, or maybe something that we haven’t addressed in our life. I am thrilled and beyond excited, and in so much gratitude for Michelle and Barb for bringing Rha to our community. If you have not signed up, I highly highly highly recommend that you do because tickets will go fast. If you have any questions, let me know. And if you would like to enter to win a three-day experience with Rha, please send me what you’re working on for 2020. I can’t wait to see it!

I love you guys. Stay mindful, stay happy. Let go of things that don’t serve you, and remember you guys are all amazing. And you have an opportunity to elevate everywhere in your life. It’s the choices that we make, it’s what we decide, and it’s the work that we do. I love you guys, have a beautiful Wednesday.

Namaste, peace out.
Mary Ann

Restore Hyper Wellness

21170-1 St Andrews Blvd, Boca Raton, FL 33433
Join Mary Ann and the Restore Hyper Wellness team for an evening of mindfulness, meditation, and hyper wellness. Free event!

Happy Wednesday, and welcome back to Wednesday Wisdom. So I wanted to mention to you about tomorrow evening at Restore Boca Raton which is located on Saint Andrews Boulevard. It’s going to be an evening about mindfulness. We’re going to talk about meditation, hyper wellness, and other things that we can do to help us with stress, to help us with our well-being, our health. This is so important because stress can take over, so we’ll be going through so many different things that you can add to help you with stress, to help you manage stress.

What brought me to yoga was stress. I went to my doctor because I had major major anxiety, major TMJ, and he said “You have two choices: you can either take an antidepressant, or you can start yoga.” So, you guys know what happened when he said that! But really, it’s a beautiful journey. And it’s not about being perfect. Yoga and meditation meets you exactly where you are.

We hope to see you tomorrow night. If you have any questions please send me a message. Everyone is welcome. Sending you so much love wherever you are. Namaste, Peace Out!
Mary Ann

Hey guys, happy Wednesday and welcome back to Wednesday Wisdom. I am so excited to be in this amazing space, Restore Boca Raton, which you are going to hear about in just a few minutes. I just wanted to answer some questions that everybody had about mindful practices. You know, mindful practices is something that you do in the morning, something that you do at night, and one of the things that I wanted to mention is about meditation beads. This is for men and women, it’s a beautiful way to sit and meditate. I am honored to collaborate with Kema Earth. Her intention and the energy that she creates in the beads is so healing and so amazing. So I just wanted to mention, as a reminder about our mindful practices, and using the meditation beads is a great way to help you with meditation. And it’s a great way to just unplug and tune in, and just breathe guys and keep it really simple.


Now I want you to hear about Restore Boca and how amazing it is. It is a Hyper Wellness and it’s a great place to come and just take that time to unplug. I love the space because there’s so many things that you can do, and depending on your time, you can stay here all afternoon. It’s one of my favorite places in Boca Raton.

Mary Ann: “So (speaking to David Black) tell us about but you have and what people can expect.”

David Black: “Absolutely. So here at Hyper Wellness, we have whole bunch of different recovery and regenerative services for the body. Two of my personal favorites are our IV Therapy and our Stretch Therapy. With our IV Therapy we can do micronutrient testing to find out what you might be deficient in and supply you with that. With our Stretch Therapy, we can actually help you improve your mobility… things we know that are very important to prevent injury and to help us recover from injuries as well. We have a whole bunch of different With our stretch therapy we can actually help improve your mobility, your stability things we know that are very important with helping to prevent injury and to help us recover from injury as well. a whole bunch of different other services, from cryotherapy, compression therapy, and infrared sauna.”

Mary Ann: “The infrared sauna, I can’t wait to try! I know my friend Candice always raves about doing it and there’s so many great benefits to it. It’s so amazing, this space, if you haven’t,  come by. It’s right next to the Watch, First Watch restaurant. I love it because they really cater to what you’re looking for and how much time you have. I love the stretching part, I love the Cryo Freeze. And I think that if you have not been, you should definitely check it out. This is another way to take care of yourself, for your health, for your wellness, and there’s so many options. If you have any questions, you can find them (Restore Hyper Wellness) on Instagram and also Facebook. It’s a really beautiful space I love it and we are there any business

David Black: “We are a very new business, and this is a new business model, so we are very interested in getting everybody to come in and touch/see/feel exactly what we do, because it’s so much more powerful when you can come in and see for yourself all the things we have to offer. Don’t just take my word for it, please come, in please come see what we have and learn all about our modalities because there’s so much behind it that you might not know about already.

Mary Ann: “Awesome. I know the lululemon girls were here yesterday, and they loved it. So I would highly recommend for you to check it out.”


This Sunday I will be teaching with many beautiful teachers at Parkland Yoga For Life. I will be posting about it. It will be at Coral Springs Gymnasium and that’s going to be from 4 to 7 o’clock. And also this Saturday, I’m excited and honored to be with all the lululemon ambassadors. They will be placing our new photos up in the store at 10:30 this Saturday, so I’m super excited.

Remember to take that time to close your eyes, connect to your breath, tune in and listen, and trust. Three things I highly recommend. It’s something that will help us to live more mindful, more healthy, and really connecting to our intuition and trusting. Those two things, and, don’t be so hard on yourself because you guys are amazing and I’m always inspired by your work on the mat, your work in your life, so many new things that you’re creating to be happy and to live from inspirations, staying inspired. I love you guys, have the most amazing day. Peace out, namaste. 

Hi guys, happy Wednesday and welcome back to Wednesday Wisdom. So today I just wanted to remind you of the importance of stillness and taking time to write out your mindful practices. Everyone is different, everyone has a different ritual, a different practice. And no matter if you practice yoga, that you’re an entrepreneur, it’s really important to carve out that time that is going to help you in what you’re doing.

You know life gets so busy and we have so many tabs open, we have so many things that we are thinking about that we want to create. It’s a new year, it’s an opportunity to create a new vision for your business, for yourself, and making sure that you take that time to write out what you working towards, and what your mindful practice looks like. Everyone is different and having a yoga and meditation practice is a way to help balance our energy, it helps us to get clear about what we really want. It’s hard to get clear and it’s hard to tap into your intuition when we have so many tabs open so I highly recommend, today, write out what is your mindful practice? How are you getting still? How are you incorporating that in your day? How do you unplug at the end of the day? Do you stay on social media, or go through your emails until you pass out at night?

It’s important that we take that time at the end of the day to close out our day, and to really breathe, to center yourself even before going to bed. Something I learned from Dr. Wayne Dyer so long ago, was whatever thoughts you’re thinking about before you go to sleep, that energy, that vibration, is with you as you’re sleeping. So it’s important to clear away the day, to clear away your thoughts, and maybe there’s something that was upsetting during the day, and take time to work through that energy because it’s only going to help you energetically. It’s only going to help you tap into your intuition more. So really take time today and write out what your mindful practices look like.


Mary Ann: “I love you guys and I just wanted to let you know I’m so honored to be in the space today of this new concept that Salvatore Principe has created and actually is coming here!”

Salvatore: “Look who’s here! My Mary Ann!”

Mary Ann: “Here we are, live in person, and do you want to tell them about what you’re going to be doing here with live artists?”

Salvatore: “Yeah, we built a gallery in Boca Town Center, first of its kind, and it’s going to be a live gallery where we have musical artists coming in, several artists painting or sculpting during the day and evenings. It’s a chance to actually meet the artists and find out what’s really behind a work of art. And the experience is inviting, and we have outside Prosperity Brewers and wine, and it’s definitely something to come and see.”

Mary Ann: Yes, I love it! I mean, the artwork is so beautiful. I don’t know if you can see behind me, the big beautiful heart. It’s really amazing…”

Salvatore: “Here’s the big, beautiful heart, it’s right here!” (pointing to Mary Ann).


Anyway, guys, check it out. It’s such a beautiful space and remember to write out your mindful practices. It can be two minutes, it can be three minutes. Tell me what it is that you’re creating, what practices are going to be important to you. Because sometimes we share with our friends, or we just send a message like “This is what I’m going to be doing to help me stay centered. These are my practices, these are my rituals.” It can be really simple. It can be reading something spiritual, something that is important to you so that way you can incorporate it in your life everyday. I so believe in yamas and niyamas, which are the first two principles of yoga. But it’s our thoughts, how we show up every day for ourselves, how we show up in our community and in our world. Those are really important because it begins with our mind, it begins with our thoughts and how we are processing those thoughts. So I highly, highly recommend taking the Yoga Sutras. That is the core to yoga. It’s not so much about the poses, but how me move through those poses. And that’s when the shift happens, that’s when the healing happens. So if you haven’t read about the Yoga Sutras, I highly recommend it.

Have the most amazing day, I love you guys!

Peace out,
Mary Ann

Hi guys, welcome back to Wednesday Wisdom and happy, happy New Year! Wow, I can’t believe we’re in 2020!

So, my question to you is, what are your dreams? What are your goals? What are you working towards? What are you letting go of? What fears have blocked you energetically? This is really important, and keep it simple. Write it out tonight. I would love to hear what your dreams and visions are, and what actions are you taking to help you propel that intention to help you grow what you want so much.

I love you guys, and I thank you so much for always sharing and for always inspiring me as a teacher as a student.

I am getting ready to go do Pilates with Luis but I wanted to come on and wish you a happy New Year and to remind you to give yourself that space to write, so that way you can start to put a plan in place to help you.

I’m going to be doing a workshop at the end of this month at Kindness Matters headquarters, below are the details and link to enroll. Hope to see you there!

Nourish Kindness Series at Kindness Matters 365

Event Info & Registration

Hey guys, happy Wednesday and welcome back to #WednesdayWisdom. So, I first want to thank you so much for your feedback regarding the website! I was so overwhelmed by all the comments, all the emails. And I wanted to let you know that we did add the Spotify account, so if you go on the home page can you scroll all the way down and it will direct you right into the Spotify account.

Enjoy this time of the year and make sure that you practice, that you take care of yourself, and don’t try to do everything in the next few weeks… or I think it’s about a week and a half before 2020. Have some compassion, be gentle, notice what energy you take in, notice how you set your intention, and notice your thoughts throughout the day.

A book I highly recommend is “Super Attractor.” And it doesn’t mean, “Oh my gosh, I don’t have time to read right now!” But if you can, just take one chapter and just practice that throughout the day. Or you can get the audio. But take care of yourself.

Our thoughts are everything, and it can be very overwhelming because we have so much to do, and we have our family. The first thing is to take care of what is happening for you, so that way you can show up authentic. You can show up where you feel really good instead of feeling depleted. Stay mindful, and breathe.

I love you guys. Enjoy this beautiful magical time of the year!

Namaste, peace out.

Hey guys, happy Wednesday, happy holidays and welcome back to Wednesday Wisdom. I first want to give a shout out to lululemon, I’m so loving the outerwear jacket! This is my second time wearing it, and it has kept me so warm, and it’s so cozy. So thank you so much!

I just wanted to remind you this holiday season to stay with practices that keep you centered, that keep you elevated. And, it can be simple. It can be writing, it can be taking 5 minutes to breathe in and breathe out, it can be creating something new in your life that you’ve been wanting to do. But this is a really busy time of the year and it’s important that you don’t neglect your routine, and neglect things that elevate you. Just like having a coach. You know, if there is something that you’ve been wanting to do, that you wanted to create in your life on a personal or professional level, create that.

There’s so many amazing amazing things that you can do, from coaches, to books. Books I highly recommend are “The Power of Intention” by Dr. Wayne Dyer, and the second one is Gabrielle Bernstein’s “Super Attractor”. Both of those books are amazing and it just helps you to manifest, and it helps you to create whatever it is that you’re looking for in your life. And especially yoga and meditation. It’s a way to look inward, it’s a way for us to see how we respond you know there’s patterns that we don’t realize that we’ve continued through our life. So take this time to make sure you stay with your routines. Let yourself drop in, let yourself take time to write and continue those rituals no matter how busy life gets or during this time of the year. It will help you make conscious choices. And if you haven’t had a yoga practice, it’s okay. Simply taking a child’s pose, simply closing your eyes and breathing in for 5 and exhaling for 5, that will change everything. Just try it and see what happens.

Enjoy the season and continue to be conscious of practices that elevate you, because that way you can stay centered, you can stay calm. I love you guys, and I just want to shout out to all the beautiful souls from this morning that always inspire me every week every day through your practice. And also I just wanted to remind you of how important it is to be aware of your mindset. You can manifest and you can create whatever it is that you want. We have those choices and just being aware there’s choices.

There was something that I wanted to create a few weeks ago, and I am beyond excited because it was presented to me just a few weeks ago and I am so honored to be collaborating with Kema Earth. It’s a line that is a spiritual line for men – and for women – but more for men. Because I find that they have their own journey and just a reminder to wear a bracelet or have a mala to help them stay centered and to help them on their path to elevate whatever it is that they’re working on.

So enjoy the holiday season! I’m always so honored and so grateful for everyone’s feedback. I love you guys. Happy holidays, namaste.

Mary Ann

I just wanted to wish everyone a beautiful Thanksgiving. Whether you’re traveling or you’re here locally, remember that breathing is going to help us always through this time of the year. It’s a busy time with traveling, getting together with family, and really enjoying every moment. Remember that it’s a time of the year to count our blessings, we have so much to be grateful for, and just being in gratitude. Something that I restarted this week is writing in my gratitude journal. Something shifts when we write down every little thing that we are grateful for. So just enjoy, and… breathe. Breathing will help you stay centered and grounded. Keep your rituals that you have every day, even if you’re traveling, sit down and meditate for five minutes.

I love this week. So many of you shared with me, “You know what, I finally am starting to meditate!” And I love it because that’s the journey. You know, we continue to evolve, we continue to make choices to help our mind and body. Don’t stress over the little things, they’re just little things. And remember that everyone deserves so much love and kindness, and everyone has a story that they’re going through. So be kind, spread love, and don’t forget to breathe through this holiday season.

I love you guys! Have the most amazing amazing Thanksgiving! I pray for each of you to have so many blessings at your table, and so much love.

Namaste, peace out.

Mary Ann

 

Today I want to remind you of the importance of self-care and the importance of rituals. Especially with the holidays just around the corner, our minds can have so many “tabs” open. So the more busy you are in your life I highly recommend that you practice having a meditation practice, having a tapping practice, having a pranayama practice, or simply just going to yoga. Yoga is a way to move energy, it’s a way to release any tension that we’re holding onto in the mind and body. Don’t try to do everything this holiday season. Take the time to slow down, always practicing a moment of stillness.

If you are not reading a book right now, I highly recommend The Power of Now, which you can find on my Amazon page (click here). And don’t wait till 2020! Just create a sacred practice for you, so that way you know at the end of the day or in the morning. This is what I do to keep myself centered, because if we can practice ways to stay centered we can make conscious choices throughout the day that is in line with our values and our intentions. So guys, just enjoy the holidays and know that it’s a beautiful time of the year to give, and also to be present in our own life, in our own way of moving, not just on the mat but in life. So, enjoy! I love you guys. Namaste, peace out.

Mary Ann
