My name is Margarita and I am the person behind Be Aware Choose Practice (BeACP).

I share findings and ideas on how to live a healthier, joyful, and more holistic life. A pendulum is a tool I use to help me achieve that.

Where are you from?

I was born and lived until the age of 19 in the country boasting the smoothest coffee, the tallest palms, and the leading source of emeralds.

And most of my life, I have lived in the country boasting the largest office building, the tallest known living tree, the longest cave systems, and the most generous people in the world.

Who am I?

My life has been one of intense transformation since very young. At the age of 19, I embarked on my first solo journey and came to the USA.

I enjoy learning about spiritual-scientific teachings as well as energy healing. And I am a student of Self Realization Fellowship.

What ideology shapes your life?

I realized that what I feed my mind is more important than what I feed my body. And that I am a soul having a human experience, learning my many lessons through many lives to get back to the Creator.

Any experiences shaped you to have a healthy lifestyle?

Being called fatso and a target of jokes shaped my life early on. I was bullied because of my weight and I was painfully shy through my teens.

In my twenties, I followed a diet for a full year while continuing to exercise. The weight came off and I swore not to let myself gain more than 5 lbs ever again. I have maintained that weight for over 25 years and it is liberating!

What are your credentials?

My heart has always been in the science of the spirit and the mind. I have practiced Reiki for many years and hold certificates in Environmental Medicine and Health and Wellness Coaching. I also hold a BSBA and worked in enterprise software sales for years.

Member of the American Association of Dowsers.

What strong beliefs guide you?

God is the Love that upholds all creation and each of us is made in his image, meaning the soul or Spirit.  Self Realization Fellowship teaches us that by finding God within we can find him without in all people and all conditions.

What’s your favorite quote?

I have lived through positive affirmations and quotes since I was a teenager.  Mother Teresa once said: “Spread love everywhere you go.” And “Cling to What is Good” is another favorite.
