The Bodhi Bridge
~ A Foundation for Awakening ~
Bodhi Philosophy
“What the world needs more than anything are Bodhisattvas … active servants of peace & possibility.
We need bodhisattva lawyers, artists, politicians, doctors, economists, teachers and engineers,
all working tirelessly (better yet, joyfully!) for the enlightenment of themselves and others.”
— Sogyal Rinpoche

Our Who
We serve Bright Lights and the Ones who lead & serve The Many…
We serve & train Bright Light leaders, facilitators, service providers, healers, coaches, business owners, teams & staff, awesome young adults, their communities & followings…
Read More...
Because, Bright Lights are dedicated to serving the wholeness, thriving, happiness, and success of humanity & the planet.
Our Why
Because… It Is Time.
In our rapidly changing world, people are “waking up” more quickly than ever.
And that sets a series of changes in motion.
Read More...
As people Awaken, a unique series of inner shifts, life transitions, and livelihood changes take place.
Where do I live?
Where do I work?
Who is my Tribe/Community?
How do I use my gifts & talents to create a thriving livelihood?
How can I/We best navigate the shift?
Having conscious, creative, well-trained service-leaders, facilitators, and resources is essential to creating a more harmonious & successful shift… and world…
from the inside out & the outside in.
Because conscious people want conscious & creative alternatives…
to pretty much Everything.

(11 Things that Tend to Happen When One “Awakens”)
It is a time of Great Change for the world, the economy, the planet, communities, and for individual lives. For some, these changes (both internal & external) have set in motion a process of “Awakening”… a process of recognizing there is much more to life, to fulfilling one’s purpose & potential, to actualizing one’s capacity to relate, live, serve, lead, give, love, and create at Whole New Levels.
So, what happens when one “Awakens”? ✨🦋✨
Read More...
Things begin to Change. ✨🐛✨
A series of Opportunities, Needs & Situations arise.
And 11 Very Specific Things Tend to Happen….
Whether one is working in a corporate or professional setting, attending University, growing coffee in Costa Rica, searching for meaning, parenting Little Ones, building a business or a relationship, or a family or a community … you name it … A series of specific changes happen.
1. People tend to Leave something. They leave a habit, a way of life, an addiction or a state of mind. They leave a “job”, a relationship, a home base, a country.
2. Next is… “Now, what do I do”? 🤷♀️
3. Where do I go? Where do I live?
4. Where is my like-minded/like-spirited community (aka “Tribe”)?
5. What are the teachings, tools, practices & resources that help me to Awaken & lead a better (happier, more fulfilling, successful, Good) life… from the inside out?
6. What do I do financially? (Hint: Old/familiar financial means tend to fall away, and new/more aligned/but maybe unfamiliar means of prosperity take their place.)
7. How do I used my gifts, talents, and skills to be of service (and make a thriving livelihood)?
8. How do I engage with people (especially family members) who may not be on a path of Awakening?
9. How do I create a Better World ~ a world I believe in ~ and with whom?
10. How do I find my soulmate, life partner, creation team?
11. And what about the kiddos? What do we do/create for the Littles? And How?
(Any or ALL of these sound familiar? Then Welcome Bright Light! You are well on your way!)
Addressing these Opportunities, Needs & Situations… especially for “Bright Lights” … is WHY we started The Bodhi Bridge.
So, Take a look at our Programs, Events, Trainings, Services and other Offerings.

4. Provide service-learning & work-trade Opportunities for gifted and talented students from diverse communities and age groups.
5. Help create thriving livelihoods (aka “meaningful employment”) at a time when purpose & meaning helps to change lives for the better.
6. Support the Ones who lead and serve the Many… to help reduce “burn out” & keep those who are serving many others in great shape.
7. Serve more people remotely (via online platforms like FaceTime, Whats App, phone, Zoom, or other virtual platforms.). Sooner rather than later… So we can get ahead of the wave.
8. Support other amazing Programs & Community Partners. So we can create a better future… Together.
How to Help:
Support the Ones Who Serve the Many
One of the best ways we can serve is to keep people in great shape, so they can actualize the greater possibilities of their lives and serve others… consciously, creatively, and in flow. This is especially important for those service-providers and service-leaders who are in contact with the wider public or who have large followings… The Ones who lead & serve the Many.
There are many reasons for this… especially given the level of responsibility, connectivity, change and need for innovative solutions called for now.
Read More...
Because our work can be done remotely (and the work is incredibly effective) … One of the best ways we can serve is to train more community members, service-oriented leaders, Shamanic/Integrative Healing Practitioners, Flow Coaches, Conscious Business Consultants and other professionals, so we can serve more people… easily & affordably.
With more trained Practitioners, working in person or remotely, we are in a position to safely serve and support service-providers, service-leaders, their teams, organizations, clients and communities.
The added Benefit: When a Practitioner receives a sponsorship for Mentorship, they are not only getting training, they are creating a thriving livelihood doing what they love. This creates meaningful employment that makes a positive difference in the lives of others at a time when it’s needed most.
Together, We can create Opportunities that uplift lives.
