Dharma In The Dirt
Living Beyond Addiction
I help addiction rebels turn their mess into medicine and their pain into purpose.
Welcome
I’m Mika Rae—a former nurse and molecular biologist turned recovery coach, spiritual rebel, and neuroscience guide. After 22 years in the grip of addiction and breaking free from a broken system, I built Dharma in the Dirt: a space for radical healing. No sugarcoating. No quick fixes. Just real work that rewires you from the inside out.
Why the Dirt?
True growth often emerges from our most challenging experiences. The name itself symbolizes the journey of finding one’s purpose (Dharma) amidst the chaos and struggles (the Dirt) of life.
Dharma in the Dirt is a sanctuary for those seeking to reconnect with themselves. A guided journey of healing rooted in neuroscience, nutrition, movement, and spiritual exploration forms the foundation of radical transformation.
My Offer



MIND:
Rewire the Chaos
We’ll retrain your brain using neuroscience-based strategies that regulate your neurotransmitters, heal addiction pathways, and give you your clarity—and power—back. Especially helpful if you’re breaking free from the grip of Adderall, Suboxone, or the biochemical fallout of modern medicine.
Mission
To guide individuals who feel disconnected—whether due to addiction, toxic relationships, or ingrained habits—toward a path of healing and self-empowerment. With lived experience walking a powerless path through despair Dharma in the Dirt emerges with tools, insights, and a burning desire to assist others in their healing journeys. This isn’t about quick fixes; it’s about cultivating resilience, embracing vulnerability, and stepping into a life of purpose and joy.
