Mary Louder, DO is a double-boarded Osteopathic Physician (Integrative Medicine and Family Medicine) who practices medicine by supporting people who join their own quest and journey of health and wellness. “Any physician can find disease, healers find health and support the body’s innate capacity for healing. Pursuing wellness restores health and vitality at all stages of life.”

Mary was trained at Michigan State University and has been a practicing physician since 1993. Her focus now is on teaching, educating and writing about healing and how the journey inward is the way forward. She believes that being first connected with ourselves and then with others brings the best joy and fulfillment in life. Additionally, she believes that we are emotional beings having a physical experience. Emotions are us, we are emotions, the physical body houses the emotions and then mirrors our feelings back to us by what we have come to know as symptoms and signs. She feels by identifying and understanding our emotions, our biology and our backstory we can learn how to connect and reconnect with ourselves and with others. We can be well and live well.

“When we are connected to ourselves, we can go anywhere”

Mary lives in Holland, Michigan with her husband, Andy and their labradoodle, Lucy. She enjoys bike riding, fly fishing, being in nature ~woods ~ water ~ wonder, cooking, reading and deep resting.
