MaryBeth Hyland

MaryBeth has gone from corporate to cowgirl, living her retirement dream 25 years ahead of schedule. A recovering work addict turned work-life advocate, she traded bustling Baltimore City for a tiny home on a 100-acre ranch in the Bitterroot Mountains of Idaho, where she rewilded her definition of success and helps others do the same. MaryBeth is a meditation teacher, coach, equine facilitator, speaker, and author of Permission to Be Human. She helps high achievers reduce stress, reconnect with themselves, and rewild their lives in their values and connection to Mother Nature. Her teachings blend practical personal growth with nature, spirituality, and the wisdom of her two rescued horses, Norby and Ollie. MaryBeth shares horse meditation through her live "Healing with Horses" practices, co-facilitated by her horses and Mother Nature. She's also known for her Full Moon Meditations, Values Alignment Meditations, and 2-3 minute Short Morning Meditations. They're designed for grounding, stress relief, self-trust, and reconnecting with your inner wisdom and the wisdom of nature. MaryBeth often co-creates with her husband, James Hyland, a fellow Insight Timer teacher who specializes in energy healing. They offer a "Better Together" live where they share stories and offer guidance for how to have happier, healthier relationships. James produces and mixes all her tracks. Join her on a livestream to experience the wisdom, beauty, and grounding power nature has for you!

What a wonderful way to find peace in my life! The timing of this showing up was a blessing. Being able to find a way to return to a peaceful state and have a vision of what that place looks like is incredibly helpful. Mahalo! 💜
