About Mario Mijares, the Sleeping Shaman

My Path of Resilience and Awakening

Hey, I'm Mario Mijares—certified hypnotherapist, astrologer, and the one they call The Sleeping Shaman. My work is about blending the wisdom of the stars with the power of the subconscious, guiding you through hypnotherapy and astrology to real healing and alignment. It's raw, it's deep, and it's all about stepping into your true power.

Rising from the Depths

Life hit me hard. Back in 2013, I was struck by cars three separate times—fast-moving ones that left me with spinal injuries, a stroke, and later, in 2018, the discovery of brain tumors. Treatments were brutal: constant nausea, no appetite, the whole grind. But in that fire, I found ways to nourish myself—simple, clean recipes that kept me going through the worst.

The real battle was inside. Depression pulled me under, crisis after crisis. Yet walking through that shadow changed everything. It cracked me open to a spiritual awakening, one that's fueled my purpose ever since: holding space for others to face their own darkness and come out transformed.

The Stars as My Guide

Astrology grabbed me at 17, and I've been immersed for over 15 years—studying the planets, the signs, the cycles that shape us. My readings aren't fluff; they're intuitive dives into your chart, giving you the tools to navigate challenges, seize opportunities, and live in flow with the cosmos.

Hypnotherapy: Accessing the Core

I just graduated from the Hypnosis Motivational Institute, the only accredited college worldwide for hypnotherapy and psychology. I'm licensed, certified, and always pushing deeper into Mind-Body Psychology. In sessions, we enter that trance state together—releasing old patterns, deepening sleep, quieting anxiety, and unlocking insights that shift everything.

From Protecting the Earth to Healing Souls

Before this chapter, I was a community organizer, working with nonprofits across the country to defend our planet. I poured my heart into Columbia Riverkeeper, fighting for clean water and leading global efforts. That work taught me resilience and the power of collective change.

The Road and the Revelations

In 2020, with the world on pause, I hit the road in a van—nomadic, soul-searching, free. Those miles deepened my connections and honed my gift for creating sacred spaces, supporting people through their breakthroughs.

Join Me in the Dream Realm

As The Sleeping Shaman, I'm here to walk with you into the subconscious and the stars. Let's make your sleep restorative, your dreams vivid, and your life aligned.
