DIALOGUES
DIALOGUES is a monthly practice group on self-awareness, exploration, and integration.
OFFERING
A monthly offering that will serve as a container for us to explore more deeply our internal landscape.
This will be an expanded version of the monthly gatherings I have hosted for years.
What’s Included:
One Recorded Lecture/Class on the Monthly Topic – A video recording that you can access at your own time and pace, where I will discuss in detail ideas and concepts around the monthly theme (e.g., guilt, shame, anxiety, contentment). As always, I will bring in the lens of contemplative practice and psychotherapy, addressing practices, tools, and resources.
One Online Gathering for Meditation Practice – A live monthly gathering where we come together to meditate on the topic, experiencing an embodied exploration through guided meditation and breathing exercises. You will also receive an audio recording of the meditation.
Materials & Resources – A PDF with additional insights, exercises, and supporting materials.
Who is DIALOGUES for?
The truth is, we are all tired, exhausted, and overwhelmed by the world’s suffering and chaos of the past few years. DIALOGUES will serve as a container for us to pause, slow down and recharge.
Those craving places of connection and togetherness
Anyone seeking time and space to process and be with themselves
Those in moments of transition, growth, or transformation
Those who feel stuck, unclear, or overwhelmed
Those who are looking for themselves
Those in search of practices that support inner exploration
You don’t need prior meditation experience or to be a regular practitioner to participate. This is a space of openness, reflection, and becoming—just as you are.
How & Where?
The recording will be sent in the beginning of the month and we’ll gather over Zoom at the end of the month to practice together and explore further. I’m designing this offering in a way that leaves room for people to engage or/not if they wish to receive more. (so all the introverts out there, don’t worry, this won’t be a “share your feelings” group).

RECORDINGS WILL BE SENT EVERY 5TH OF THE MONTH
ONLINE GATHERINGS : EVERY FRIDAY OF THE MONTH AT 9AM/PST (ALSO RECORDED IN CASE YOU HAVE TO MISS IT)
START DATE: MARCH 5TH / MARCH 28

MORE ABOUT ME
Hi! I'm Mari. I'm a Contemplative Educator, Mindfulness/Compassion Teacher and Writer. My work lives in the space where Contemplative Practices, Buddhist Psychology and Western Psychotherapy/Pyschoanalysis intersect. I'm deeply interested in the complexity of human beings, and therefore an approach that is rooted in self-exploration, self-awareness, self-compassion and the process of welcoming all parts of ourselves, creating more space and stillness within.
In my practice, I support people, teams and companies in better understanding where they are and how to get closer to the root of their suffering. A deeper awareness of our struggles, negative patterns and blocks, cultivates clarity of one’s full experience and starts opening space for more acceptance, self-compassion and integration.
I’m trained in Contemplative Psychotherapy and have taught Buddhist Meditation for over 5 years around the world. I’m currently undergoing my masters degree on Counseling Psychology and I've incorporated in my practice, tools and teachings that support our capacity to re-establish a connection with our body, breath and mind. As a native Brazilian immigrant with Hungarian roots, living in Los Angeles by way of Spain and Mexico, my multicultural perspectives and backgrounds are continuously informing my work. As are the complexities of everyday modern life being also a wife and a working mother.
WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT DIALOGUES:
“Dialogues served as marker for me. It was a way to come back to myself like nothing I’ve ever experienced, thanks to Mari’s deep compassion, knowledge and acceptance. She creates a safe envoironment for us to be able to figure out our own answers, guidance. I walked away with tools, practices and wisdom that has changed me forever” - Julia T., London
“Dialogues was such an introspective and fulfilling experience. I learned a lot more than I thought about myself and my behavior patterns. Mari gave us a lot of information and with all her knowledge about these teachings I was able to understand what Mindfulness really is. I feel empowered to start my daily practice and to be able to deal with my thoughts and emotions in a much healthier way.” - Paula S., Oregon
“I am very grateful to Mari and her consideration. Her presence is so healing and welcoming that I felt seen and heard. Dialogues is such a well-crafted course in that the curriculum really integrates Mindfulness and Psychology in a way that feels easy to understand. I felt like I finally had access to information that I didn't already know and this made my practice that much deeper. The Dialogues were a very transformative experience” - Daniele M., Lo Angeles
“I had never meditated before, I had no experience, but I wanted to learn more about these practices. What happened during Dialogues was a profound experience of learning about myself and learning that I can meditate, that I can be with myself. Mari's teaching and tools are very generous and insightful. I feel like I've just started an inner journey! " - Eva L., México
