Write to Dreamä
Maria Mar created the
Write to Dreamä
System as a creative writing system that helps women write
effortlessly and quickly while developing the discipline for writing or
self-transformation.
Write to Dreamä offers several coaching
programs that helps a woman write her expert book to position herself as an
expert in her field. Maria Mar also offers private coaching for
self-development to women who want to use writing in order to create the
life of their dreams, but need to develop self-discipline or release
self-sabotage.

The Bewomaning Experienceä
At the core of all the female-wisdom systems,
Bewomaning stands as an Act of Power: the Act of becoming
a woman on your own terms.
Through the
Bewomaning Experienceä, Maria Mar
helps women free their Female Powers and become the
protagonists of their own life. Intense self-knowledge is offered through
the Female Power Archetypes and alchemical formulas to transmute pain
into power. Bewomaning helps women take time and space for themselves in their own
lives and to bring their Female and Male aspects into balance to be
effective in the world.

Hunt Down
the Inner Enemies of your Successä
Train as a Shadow Huntress. Track down the Inner
Enemies of your Success and re-cast them as allies to your dream. This
system helps people understand how their defensive strategies and
sub-personalities are created, how they are governed by False Beliefs
unknown to them consciously, and how to free themselves from all those
patterns to assume their Personal Power. (This system is included in many
offers at Maria's different websites and programs.)
As a shaman, Maria Mar is a Woman of Power. This means
that she has transformed her pain into power, her emotional wounds into her
Personal Medicine. She has trained for 14 intensive years in a full-time
path to reclaim Female Wisdom. She has reclaimed the power of art as a
ritual for individual and community transformation. Maria Mar walks
her talk. Each book, digital product, performance or program she creates
comes out of her own journey to freedom. She has worked, healed and
addressed thousands of women in the USA, South Africa, Mexico and other
countries.
