About A.J. Mahari

Let me introduce myself to those of you who may not know me from my other Websites and the numerous (free) articles, blogs, podcasts, and videos I have made available online for over 14 years now.

My name is A.J. Mahari. I am a 52 year old woman, professional writer, Life Coach, BPD/Mental Health Coach. I have written primarily and specifically about Borderline Personality Disorder (from which I have recovered 14 years ago), Asperger's Syndrome (from the adult perspective), as well as Mental Health Issues among other things. I will have Ebooks and Audio Programs, along with video, on a wider-range of topics of interest to those who are in various stages of identifying and coming to terms with much-needed change very soon.

So much of the journey of life, as does the life coaching process, involves getting to know yourself better. More specifically, getting to know much more about who you really are - who your authentic self is. It is the authentic self in each and every one of us that I believe is a phoenix rising.

I am a Phoenix Rising, an ever-unfolding work in progress, a wayfarer on the road less traveled. I am a student of life. I am a seeker of all that can bring forward a continued and deeper awareness that can enhance the over-all quality of my experience of every evolving and maturing here-and-now moment in the full mindfulness of radical acceptance of all that is.

Learning to mindfully and radically accept what is provides the Phoenix Rising in each of us with the repeated and universally-timed opportunity of evolution that challenges each of us to throw his/her known self into the fire of examination. A fire that allows us to learn, make progress in any recovery we need, and to grow. We then rise out of the ashes of one fire of self at a time to come to understand aspects of our lives that were previously unavailable to our conscious minds because we were too restricted by our protective false selves to acquire this much sought after and longed for insightful awareness. This profoundly important awareness gifts us with new appreciation and understanding. In turn, then, from the ashes of these fires of self, each Phoenix Rising unearths the space to implement new ways of thinking, feeling, and acting in the world.

Please join me on this most sacred journey won't you? Read one of my ebooks, listen to one of my audio programs, partake of a self help course, watch a video, or avail yourself of my life coaching services - all of which are designed to aid you on your un-folding journey. This is a journey that is simultaneously universally shared and very individual and personal. It is from this central premise that my ebooks speak to the many layers and intricate nature of self-revelation, self-actualization, and recovery.

No matter what your life circumstance. No matter what your diagnosis or life challenge I hope you will find something I've made available here that will augment your journey with a renewed sense of promise, purpose, passion, and peace.
