Mariah LAINE MOYLE
Mariah Laine Moyle is an author, yoga teacher, and student of herbalism, languages, and traditional healing practices. She has spent more than fifteen years living in The Bahamas, an experience that inspired both her travel writing and her exploration of what it truly means to find paradise.
Her books range from practical travel and relocation guides to personal growth and fiction, all connected by themes of adventure and self-discovery. She is the author of Moon Bahamas, Escape to the Bahamas, A Survivor's Guide to Paradise, and A Trip to the Bahamas.
Mariah's path has taken her from studying traditional Hatha Yoga to learning energy medicine with the Q'ero shamans of Peru. She continues her studies in Vitalist Herbalism, Astro Herbalism, Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and German New Medicine.
When she's not writing, Mariah enjoys hiking, learning languages, tending to plants, and dreaming up new worlds for her upcoming fantasy series, Venusian Dream.
CREATIVITY
Mariah stems from a long line of creatives. Her grandfather was a career artist: a cartoonist, muralist, and wood carver. Her grandmother, an avid birder, wrote numerous books on birds of the Pacific Northwest. Her father paints beautiful acrylic paintings and is a woodworker. These creative genes were passed along the line, and Mariah has been gifted with a passion for graphic design and writing.
adventure + LANGUAGE
Mariah spent 2023 and early 2024 living part-time in Mexico. She fell in love with the culture, the language, the people, and the food. Mexico shifted her in profound ways, but she is now back in The Bahamas with a new appreciation for her island home. She now spends several months per year in Italy and France. She continues to study Spanish, and is learning Italian and French.
