Episode Description

I knew I liked Mari immediately when I met her. We met in Fariha Roisin's Writing with Vulnerability in Mind and as soon as Mari started talking I thought that woman knows some things. Turns out she really really does. Mari Orkenyi is a Contemplative Educator, Psychoanalyst Candidate and Writer. Her work lives in the space where Contemplative Practices, Buddhist Psychology and Psychoanalysis intersect. Mari holds a Masters in Arts, is Certified in Contemplative Psychotherapy and is Certified Meditation Teacher. She supports individuals, corporate teams and groups with Contemplative Practices guiding them on a journey of self awareness, exploration and integration. Mari has collaborated with Moca, The Marciano Foundation, Loom, Apple, DoorDash, LA Dance Project and more. 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.

She's not just accomplished, and accredited she's an incredibly warm accessible person which feels like a tricky balance she pulls off effortlessly. Please enjoy our conversation on what mindfulness is and isn't, why Mari's approach feels radically permissive and why to meditate at all.

On This Human Thing, Kat (that's me writing this description right now) and friends share ideas and stories regarding our human experiences. Just some laid back convos about spirituality, psychology, science, health, relationships, and how to make the most out of our time on this planet. Nothing is off-topic because everything is a part of the human experience. We question reality, dive into our personal journeys, and what we've learned from teachers and friends. I've found that good conversations are one of the things that make me feel the most alive and connected. I wanted to share these conversations to normalize the fact that no one really knows anything and we're all just trying to figure it out. We go deep, but keep it lighthearted. And above all, the one thing we really want from life is deep and authentic connection to ourselves and others. So let's go there.. We're all in this human thing together.
