Mayra & Mark Clay - Episode 56
from Harmony in a Hurry · host Ana M Martin & Caroline Jones
Today we are talking to Mayra Clay and we are joined by her husband, Mark.Mayra is a meditation teacher and former primary school teaching assistant whose work sits right at the intersection of emotional wellbeing, practical family support, and raising resilient kids.Mayra’s approach flips the script on the old idea that children’s emotions need quick fixes. Instead, through her book The Boy and the Pink Light and her background in both education and meditation, she helps families create space for sadness, anger, and confusion, not as problems to solve, but as signals to understand. Her “pink light” concept has opened up real, practical conversations for parents and children who want emotional literacy to feel human and accessible.With her story rooted in firsthand experience of emotional suppression and family trauma, Mayra brings a gentle, grounded voice that your listeners will find both comforting and genuinely useful. She’s especially excited to share how simple shifts in daily interactions can help kids feel heard and understood, even in moments that feel overwhelming.You can connect with Mayra and find out more through the links below.mayraclay.com TheBrightpath.com link the children to do the simplified pink light exercise https://www.mayraclay.com/#mindful-exercises For more information on the Pink Light technique for grown ups please see this link - it’s the last exercise at the bottom of the page: https://www.thebrightpath.com/en/exercises/#pink-light Find out more about Caroline:I am Caroline Jones, a wholistic healer and qualified Aromatherapist. I combine my skills of energy healing, Reiki, Shamanism, Crystal Healing, Akashic Record retrieval, Channelling and balancing subtle anatomy together with mindset coaching, to provide people with the support, that allows them to work through their own experiences with ease and understanding.

I help you understand your patterns, so they can be dismantled and released, without focussing on the past.I feel that teaching you these tools, goes a long way towards you taking charge of yourself with integrity and honesty, which in turn empowers you to be more present in your own life.
