> Is there an easy way to convert from Postgres to MySQL?

There can't be, because a great deal of the functionality would require
that you add substantial code to your application since MySQL does
minimal if any validation of input, and does not support vital features
such as triggers, stored procedures, and VIEWs.

The only way you are likely to be able to convert a relational database
application to use MySQL is if you are using your database in the most
impoverished way.
