Mari Orkenyi and I became friends the moment we met. Our conversation flowed and I didn’t want to leave anything out so I decided to break it into two parts. Mari is a Contemplative Educator, Mindfulness and Compassion Teacher and Writer. Her work lives in the space where Contemplative Practices, Buddhist Psychology and Western Psychotherapy intersect. As a native Brazilian immigrant with Hungarian roots, living in Los Angeles by way of Spain and Mexico, her multicultural perspectives and backgrounds are continuously informing her work. In this episode we talk about the connection between mindfulness and creativity, allowing yourself to take up space as you are today, motherhood, boundaries, identifying as an artist, growing up in Brazil, catching ideas, and much more.
