Nancy Mramor Ph.D. REAL CONSCIOUS LIVING www.realconsciousliving.com drnancy@realconsciousliving.com 412-445-5352 MISSION STATEMENT: I have been looking for a board position that opens a path of service in a way that calls to my heart for some time now.Thank you for inviting me to share my experience with you. For over three decades, I have been on a journey to work with humanity on 4 Key Goals for Real Conscious Living for the self and the world: 1. Self-love, 2. Self awareness and acceptance of self and others, 3. Health and especially 4. Service and opportunity for humanity. My work as a psychologist, professor, international speaker, on-air media expert, award winning author and board member provided the perfect platform for activating this growth and expansion internationally. MEDIA EXPERT, Media and Health Psychologist With the purpose of disseminating Real Conscious Living to enhance human connection and spiritual living, the largest venue possible was needed and the media provided this perfectly. My first appearance on television, kicked off ways to help children manage the stress of the world, felt like a perfect fit. The result was the opportunity to offer over 400 additional media placements in the U.S., Canada and Australia. TV, including CBS, NBC,ABC, Fox and PBS, work as a producer for PBS, as a radio host and guest, script-writer, and an article and book author. AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR Publications Books Following the greatest challenge of my life, a recovery from devastating end of life stage Leukemia, the outcome was a book called Spiritual Fitness, a guide to combining the mind, body and spirit for health and wellness. The book won a COVR award in the category of bridging spirituality and science, the same award won that year by the Dalai Lama in the category of Consciousness. The methods described in Spiritual Fitness, along with a medical regimen, resulted in a 23 day remission that would have normally taken 4 years. Then, Get Reel: Produce Your Own Life won first place in the self-help category at the Author's Zone Awards in 2016. It explains, with humor, research and interactive participation, how to view media without the negative side effects, one of the biggest challenges of the millenium! Another book on the Top Ten Tips for Lasting Happiness, completed in 2010, is a compilation of research-based chapters by me and local authors and celebrities who share an expertise in each of the ten areas. Human connection was the #1 Tip! Multimedia programs Mastering Relaxation is a multimedia curriculum that evolved from my research on how media can start at the ground level with children creating Real Conscious Living. The research results proved convincingly that with structured support, television viewing can create observable reduction in stress symptoms in children. It was endorsed by the Pennsylvania School Counselors Association. Through my work as a psychologist at the UPMC Shadyside Hospital, a grant from the University of Pittsburgh Shadyside Hospital Foundation, resulted in a Hypnosis for Healing DVD. It is currently used with cancer patients within the UPMC and Allegheny Health Systems. Articles Full articles were published in TABLE magazine, Pittsburgh Professional Magazine, Inspiring Lives and various local and national publications.
