Conversations with Mother Mary: Loving Wisdom from Her Life to Yours
When a contemporary shamanic healer encounters the biblical Mother Mary in meditation, she begins a years-long channeling practice filled with grace and wonder. At the Mother's direction, those channeled messages have been transcribed here for everyone. Recounting stories from Mary's human life as well as her guidance for these modern times, this book also reflects on the transformative power of this relationship in the author's personal life. So much more than the plaster statues of organized religion, this Mary is the ancient Mother of at once earthy and ethereal---and eager to share compelling messages of deep and abiding love.
A beautiful compendium of personal experiences with one of the most widely known emissaries of maternal love the world has ever known. Offering us exactly what pre-Christian shamans of the world sought– guidance and healing– it invites us to reconsider the limitations of spiritual experience. This is a healing book… Brought to us with courageous vulnerability, it’s an opportunity to look beyond the rigid depictions of to see her as a woman, a mother, a wife, a teacher, a warrior, and above all, a benevolent source of love and inspiration.– Oscar C. Pérez PhD, Shamanic Practitioner, Ritual Leader, founder of Tending the Fires
"Mikki Baloy’s book begins with an evocative portrayal of Biblical times that deepens our connection with this ancient world. Then, through intimate dialogues with Mary, Baloy transports her into our contemporary world; distilling lessons on shame, pleasure and motherhood; healing through music, mindful communication, and the radical act of love. Conversations with Mother Mary is a prayer that opens hearts to loving ourselves and nurturing our connections with others."
– Lisa Levart, award-winning author and photographer of Goddess on Portraits of the Divine Feminine
Mikki Baloy is a terrific writer and a wonderful shaman. She carries on a sacred tradition that allows her to access information from people no longer on the planet. It’s fantastic that she’s written this wonderful book. Mary’s message of compassion and unconditional love is powerful, and resonates throughout. Highly recommended.

Mikki's writing sings, and it her reflections on Mother Mary are melodic and contemplative. Although I began reading knowing that I was in unfamiliar territory with this spiritual practice, her down-to-earth approach made me feel welcome as a reader. The book lingered in my mind long after I finished it, and I can think of no greater compliment for an author. Bravo!

This is a book I will go back to again and again. Compelling and in a very conversational, easy to read style, one feels present with Mary and Mikki during these conversations.
Although I was raised in the Christian tradition, I do not identify as Christian or religious. Though I do have a deep and abiding belief in the Divine Feminine that flows through all humans and all of creation. If someone were to ask, are these conversations “real”? My response after reading the book is that it does not matter. There is so much here that is so deeply resonant for me. This is a book I will revisit, and I already have a long list of people I plan to share it with.
Thanks Mikki for these conversations, and for being a bridge between us and the Divine Feminine in the form of Mary. Thanks for your courage in sharing, in connecting us to this wisdom, and in encouraging us to REMEMBER what we already know somewhere deep down: that we are beings of Love and we are loved. Strong, delicate, beautiful and rooted like a rose bush, we have our thorns to keep us safe.
If you are in need of comfort, courage or support read this book. If you are struggling on your journey, read this book. If you would like to smile and feel joy, read this book. Ok basically, read this book if you are at all curious!
