Current Presentations

Catch the Dream Express Presentation Series

• This presentation series offers practical lessons from the Sacred Feminine School of Shamanic Wisdom to help people go from “here” (where they are) to “there” (where they want to be).

  By now everybody knows about the Law of Attraction! It went from discovery to trend and slowly receded into the consciousness. But it did something wonderful. It allowed individuals to assume their agency as co-creators and influencers of life.

  Maria employs shamanic tools of transformation to lead the audience through a fun and effective experiential exploration on how to develop their agency and creativity to master the Laws of Creation, Manifestation, Alignment and Resonance in order to achieve their dreams, purpose and goals in their life.

  The emphasis here is in applying the shaman’s awareness that perception creates the world to translate your intent into reality and in the Sacred Feminine way of perceiving, learning and changing.

  This is an introductory level to the shift needed in our consciousness from Newtonian cause-and-effect thinking to Quantum Thinking. This shift has occurred in the scientific community, but we need to bring it into our “life curriculum” and popular thinking if it is going to serve our people and truly change humanity and the planet.

“Shamans have been quantum thinking for centuries and now ~rather ironically~ the tools that were once seen by the Western mind as superstitious can be finally understood and employed by all.” Maria Mar

Catch the Dream Express!

The Law of Attraction has become part of the collective consciousness, opening space for the concept that we can create our own life, manifest our dreams and have an influence in the world.

In Catch the Dream Express Maria employs the awareness of individual agency awakened by the Law of Attraction movement to help the audience explore experientially how they create and co-create their lives as active agents.

The Catch the Dream Express Lecture Series is based on Maria Mar’s new novel:

Angelina & the Law of Attraction:

A Woman’s Ride from her

Pressing Problems to her Brightest Potential

Each chapter in the novel is a “station” in the Dream Express route. Each station addresses essential aspects of the role of creator, leader and agent of one’s life to reveal how one is influencing situations, creating obstacles or blocking possibilities and what to do about it.

Depending on the station/topic, the duration of the presentation and your needs, the presentations vary and may include at least two of these elements:

• Performance: 15-30 minute performance to “walk” the audience into the experience of the chapter (instead of reading it).

• Chapter Reading – Reading of a chapter from the novel Angelina & the Law of Attraction.

• Teachings from the Sacred Feminine School of Wisdom that reveal shamanic tools for real life (Placing the chapter/topic within the reference of shamanic teaching and presenting the topics (usually includes interaction and visual presentation) This is the closest to a traditional speaking gig as Maria gets.)

• Laboratory: Experiential hands-on exploration where the spectators become SpectActors to get up and do it. (20 minutes-2 hours)

• Ceremony: Ceremonial experience where the audience comes together as community to do a symbolic action to activate their transformation. (20 minute-2 hours)

• Deep Meditation and envisioning: Maria takes the audience into a deep relaxation and alpha-tetha brain frequency to explore psychic layers or access core visions. (20 minutes-1 hour)

• Playshop: More in-depth and lengthy exploration in which people do a creative project as a path to implement the knowledge or activate the transformation.The difference between a “Playshop” and a workshop is that you have lots of fun and explore the knowledge creatively. I take play very seriously. It liberates the mind to quicken implementation, deepens absorption and empowers agency. (1-8 sessions of 90-120 minutes each.)
