Dr. Maritza Ruiz, DNP, Master NLP & Hypnosis Practitioner & Intuitive
Dr. Maritza Ruiz walked away from a full-time world of white coats and clinical checklists when she realized that true healing doesn’t come from treating symptoms or putting bandaids on things through medications, it comes from reconnecting to the soul. As a high-achieving woman who once felt burned out, emotionally blocked, and disconnected from her own inner truth, Maritza’s journey became her greatest teacher. Through the powerful integration of NLP, Hypnosis, Energy Work, and deep intuitive guidance, she found her way back to herself; and now she holds space for others to do the same. Her work is rooted in the belief that the mind and body must work in harmony with the spirit to create lasting change. Today, Maritza helps spiritually curious professionals release what no longer serves them, so they can step fully into who they were always meant to be. Her mission is more than just a transformation, it’s coming home!
Where Conscious Clarity Meets Subconscious Power
Mantra Botanicals & Wellness + The MB Wellness Mind
One Mind. One Purpose. Our mission is to empower individuals on their journey of self-discovery, healing, and lasting transformation. We help clients break through emotional, mental, and energetic barriers by integrating intuitive guidance, mindset coaching, and powerful energy healing practices. Rooted in both ancient wisdom and modern modalities like NLP and Hypnosis, our work creates a sacred space for releasing limiting beliefs and realigning with the true self. We believe that real change begins within. It begins through mindset mastery, energetic alignment, and deep emotional clarity. Our vision is to make holistic transformation accessible to all who seek to live with purpose, confidence, and inner peace. As more people awaken to their power, we imagine a world where conscious living becomes the standard — where healing is not just possible, but inevitable. Mantra Botanicals & Wellness + The MB Wellness Mind are more than just brands —they are sacred spaces for healing, transformation, and a return to wholeness.
Authentic + Integrity
We believe true healing begins when we show up as our whole, honest selves — no masks, no pretending. At The MB Wellness Mind and Mantra Botanicals & Wellness, we lead with integrity, honoring our truth and holding space for others to do the same. Every session, product, and offering is rooted in alignment with our values and the highest good of those we serve.
Empathy
We meet every soul with an open heart and deep understanding. Through active listening, emotional presence, and intuitive guidance, we create a safe space where clients feel seen, heard, and supported without judgment. Healing is personal — and empathy is the bridge that connects us through it.
Empower
Our mission is to guide individuals back to their inner power — not by fixing them, but by reminding them of what’s already within. Whether it’s through NLP mindset coaching, hypnosis, energy alignment, or intuitive insight, we help clients reclaim their voice, their truth, and their light. Empowerment here isn’t just a concept — it’s a lived experience.
Working with Maritza helped me break through years of emotional blocks and finally feel like myself again. I feel grounded, clear, and in control of my life.”

The Founder's Personal Journey
2019
One of my most life changing moments!
My husband and I have the same birthday! We were planning our 34th birthday celebration in Las Vegas when the perfect idea came to me! I wanted to landscape my yard instead. He agreed to my crazy idea and off I went to our local plant and landscaping nursery. I had NO IDEA what this life changing decision would do to us - from legal woes, entrepreneurship, anxiety & panic attacks, spiritual awakening to resilience, love, & purpose!
2020
What a YEAR!
At the end of 2019, I found out I was pregnant and was filled with excitement as we finalized the purchase of our first plant and landscaping nursery. But at 24 weeks pregnant, everything shifted. I was diagnosed with Guillain-Barré Syndrome, faced a high-risk pregnancy during COVID, postpartum depression, and a legal battle tied to our new business. The weight of it all led to anxiety, panic attacks, and a deep sense of disconnection, fear, anger, guilt, and shame — I had lost my sense of purpose.
2021
Worst Freeze in 100 Years
Shortly after acquiring our new business, we entered into unexpected legal challenges that we’re still fighting to this day. In February 2021, a historic freeze destroyed 75% of our inventory, caused major damage, and left my husband and our 6-month-old without power while I was stuck at the hospital on shift for four days. Despite it all, we pushed forward and prepared for our very first spring season with everything we had. Although enduring my own mental health challenges, I learned to cope with unhealthy coping mechanisms and pushed forward - isn't it what your supposed to do?
2022
Hot Mess & A New Chapter is Born!
While I walked around acting "perfect", I was a hot mess inside! I began questioning my life, career, and my true purpose in life. I begged God to take me away to experience this beautiful realm that everyone talked about in their near-death-experiences. I thought about going on medications, however, deep down inside - it would be a bandaid. It was something bigger and deeper. I startted searching and doing my own homework in alternative therapy / modalities looking for answers. It wasn't till I was in the middle of a Reiki student practice session that I would receive my answers! My intuition and intuitive skills blew wide open. Mantra Botanicals & Wellness was born!
2023
Self Healing
I had a vision to help others, but first I had to do the deep, transformative work myself. Over the next three years, I committed fully to my own self-discovery — investing in my healing, showing up even on the hardest days, and becoming a dedicated student of growth. I knew that to truly hold space for others, I needed to embody the same tools I hoped to one day offer them.
2024
Can I do this?
As I scaled back my hospital shifts and deepened my studies, I quietly launched Mantra Botanicals & Wellness at our small business storefront — sharing energy work and intuitive guidance with curious clients. I still questioned myself over and over. Can I really do this? Can I bring this brand to life? Behind the scenes, I continued building with intention, rooted in purpose, balance, and holistic well-being.
2025
Yes, I can!
As you read this,The MB Wellness Mind has officially come to life — a coaching extension grounded in mindset, energy work, NLP, and subconscious healing. This space was created for growth, transformation, and real connection. I’ve personally experienced every tool we offer and more! I’m beyond excited to launch our very first client cohort in 2026 — let’s go!
