The Three Stigmata of Mariela Cruz

It is with great pleasure that we introduce you to our great friend Mariela Cruz. Mariela is one of those phenomenal human that you might find in an Alexandre Dumas classic like ‘The Count of Monte Christo’ or ‘The Man in the Iron Mask.’ Someone who’s heart-centered and gifted with supreme powers of intelligence, wit, and physical prowess! With 7 children, a lawyer, a gifted solo pianist, she also happened to finished Advanced A Series with Sharath Jois in Mysore, India. She was an ambassador to India on behalf of Costa Rica…. and the list of accomplishments goes on and on, reading like an epic novel. All this, and she still has half a lifetime more to live. Mariela recounts her life growing up in beatific peace loving Costa Rica, where as a young child she was immersed into a yoga practice with her mother and developed a lifelong passion for music. Richard Freeman once said, “Obstacles are the bread and butter of Ashtanga Yoga” and Mariela has faced her fair share. In the face of life’s challenges, Mariela’s accomplishments are extraordinary. Her patience, love, humour, self effacement, devotion, and discipline color every aspect of her life. The most recent chapter of her story is deeply tragic and harrowing. Yet, she fights on like Durga, with the energy of her yoga practice fueling her current legal battle. We are sure that dharma will lift her and she’ll rise victorious, chasing away the darkness with her light. “Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself” ― Khalil Gibran, The Prophet FIND OUT MORE ABOUT MARIELA: YOGA PROFILE I INSTAGRAM The Finding Harmony Podcast is hosted, edited and produced by Harmony Slater and co-hosted by Russell Case.
