From Gangster to Guru with The Mindful Wizard, Steven Rivera

from Reclaiming Consciousness · host Alyse Bacine

In this episode I talk with Steven Rivera, “The Mindful Wizard”, who I immediately connected with after he interviewed me on his podcast, and of course I had to invite him back so that everyone could hear his story. During his teenage years he lost an eye after an attack, which led to depression and a dark period of time in his life. Looking back on it now, he says “ it was perfect” because he wouldn’t be the person he is today if this hadn’t happened and, as he says, “I became everything that I needed”.He managed to change his life around, decided on making better choices and developed his meditation and mindfulness skills.  Now, he wants to teach everybody that “people have the power to live the life that they want”. HIGHLIGHTSSteven’s storyShedding all beliefsTalking about emotionsThe law of attractionTeaching in prisonListening and observingThe most profound secondSetting boundariesThe broken school systemTrusting your timeThe hot takeThe collectiveNo is noABOUT STEVENSteven Rivera is a 32-year-old Dean of Students at a New York City Special Education High School, a Social Emotional Coach, and CEO and Founder of MindfulWizard LLC. a company devoted to teaching people the power of mindfulness.  He's earned two Masters of Science, one in Kinesiology and one in School Based Leadership.Connect with him on IG or TikTok: @mindfulwizard or listen to his podcast: “Search for consciousness”on AnchorCONTACT ALYSEJoin my Facebook group: Breathe to SucceedFollow me on Instagram @alyse_breathes https://www.alysebreathes.com/Or contact me at [email protected]
