Maggie White she.her

 

Maggie moves wholeheartedly towards Well-being. As a wild-at-heart human, she holds high regard for curiosity, self-discipline with self-compassion, and radical honesty. Her truest love and deepest personal practice: immersing in nature. 

Fueled by her formal yoga and meditation studies beginning in 2002, Maggie appreciates cultivating practices that span the timelines of age, growth, and transformation. As an E-RYT 500 with Yoga Alliance and LMSW, she offers creative and therapeutic personal practices, rituals for integration, and ceremonies for grief, unions of love, and rites of passage. Sharing from her “mileage on the mat”, Maggie provides mentorship and continued education for yoga practitioners from novice to professional.

Life has taught her reverence for the threshold moments of transformation and change. She strives to collaboratively engage others in personal exploration and pursuit of community well-being. Conversation Council, mindful mediation and conflict resolution sessions anchor her offerings for shaping our world as we meet life as it is, together. As a practitioner and mentor, Maggie is committed to deep listening and cultivation of the skills necessary to nourish ourselves from inner and outer natural resources. This takes a daily, relational, living practice. Think inclusivity, hopeful conversation, and a warm cup of tea.

Maggie’s passion, education, and years of experience in non-profit management, coalesce in her dearest endeavor :  projects linking our daily practice with reciprocal, ecologically-oriented community organizing for our planet. Practice in Action generates a ripple of loving service, one exhale at a time.

Raised in a contemplative Catholic household where family therapy started at the young age of 7, she has a potent familiarity with integrating all aspects of ourselves to grow and thrive as a Whole Being. She embodies the unique synthesis of Applied Psychology for Yogis, for which she is an Affiliated Teacher. Individual self-discovery takes place within an ecosystem of social and cultural systems. Maggie’s sense is that taking care of one is taking care of all. Together, we can cultivate harmony and each day is our time to practice towards that end.

 

I desire to create a space that promotes safety, diversity, and expansive love while acknowledging the efforts required for rupture and repair when facing harm and healing. Individually and Collectively.

I am committed to providing an inclusive space for individuals from all backgrounds, identities, and experiences, including race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, socioeconomic status, religion, ability, age, and immigration status. Expansive Love means Big Enough For All.

I believe what nature embodies : diversity is a strength. I actively strive to understand and respect the unique perspectives of each person I meet and extend that towards our ecological natural neighbors. Unconditional Positive Regard.

I will not tolerate any form of discrimination, prejudice, hate speech, or harmful stereotypes within any context and will actively address any concerns raised regarding these issues. “Set Boundaries, Find Peace” -Nedra Tawwab

I am dedicated to ongoing learning and self-reflection to ensure my practice is culturally competent and promotes equity and engagement, unabashedly. This is My Living Practice.
