HI, I'M MACARA
but please, call me Mac (It’s easier).
I’m a Nationally Board Certified Health Coach (IIN), Board-Certified Holistic Health Practitioner (AADP), Certified Neuro Coach, Yoga instructor, lifelong mover, gratitude advocate, and mom of two adult sons.
After years of navigating chronic symptoms, hormonal changes, and early medically induced menopause, I eventually realized my nervous system had been stuck in fight-or-flight for years — and I didn’t even know it. Learning how stress, hormones, sleep, nutrition, movement, and the nervous system all work together completely changed how I approached my own health.
What eventually became The Bliss Method — Balanced Living in Small Steps — grew from my own journey, blending science-backed strategies, mindset, gratitude, and simple daily practices to help women feel healthier, calmer, and more supported in midlife.
I'm so glad you are here.Â

MY MISSION
At Bliss with Mac, my mission is to help women feel better in midlife by understanding what their bodies need in this season.
I believe real change comes from small, intentional steps — supporting your nervous system, hormones, mindset, movement, nutrition, and daily habits in a way that feels sustainable.
You don’t need to do everything at once. You just need a place to begin.

Why Gratitude works:
Practicing gratitude regularly can help shift attention toward positive experiences, reinforcing neural pathways associated with reward, emotional regulation, and resilience. Research has also linked gratitude practices with lower perceived stress, improved mood, and better sleep quality
Bliss Daily 3 makes that practice simple: three photos, one small daily habit that helps train your brain to notice more of what’s going well.
Three photos. One simple daily practice.
