about the author

Mark Lawrence Pichichero, BA, BA, MPA, ABT MA, JD, AKA YogiMark.com, grew up in Europe, Panama and the United States. He also spent years in 

                  Asia serving in a peacekeeping force: and calls these his          “Forest Gump” years.”

He credits God, Reading the Dictionary, good teachers, friends, family – everyone and everything – for lessons learned and grace unearned.

He says he is an over-achiever who finally found his greatest loves and peace on Vancouver Island, Canada, where he lives on a Tidal Bird Sanctuary. 

In retrospective, Mark says his low was living out of his car looking to choose a university, and his highs were working as a Rehabilitation Counselor, teacher at Stanford, Berkeley, and other Bay Area Law Schools, plus as a Silicon Valley Lawyer helping build the internet and wireless telecom networks, we consider common today.

Mark’s focus on solving issues in the human condition, and enabling others led him to pursue advanced studies in healing arts, human empowerment, Yoga, and various spiritual, energetic, and mindfulness techniques in behavioural Psychology, Post-doc studies at Haven Institute for Executive Development re-ignited his passion for poetry, which he has been writing since he was a child. This collection is from ten years work.

His long-term goal, to co-create more clear, fluid, and loving world through actions of service, has remained constant through his life.
