What is Consciousness Coaching??

Image of white lotus with white floating hearts for Consciousness Coaching at Buddhi Institute.

Self Empowerment and Ultimate Wellness are attained through Higher Awareness.

 The key word to understand is Awareness. Engaged awareness liberates you from mental habits, reactive emotional patterns, outdated belief systems, and recurring life cycles such as:  new relationship-same issues. 


Consciousness Coaching cultivates:


  • Mental clarity—free from confusion and limiting thought loops
  • Emotional calm—freedom from reactive triggers
  • Physical self-care—a renewed connection with your body
  • Spiritual harmony—a gentle, authentic relationship with your Soul Self


It’s a holistic approach to coaching—guiding your Whole Self, mind, body, and spirit, toward your goals, dreams, and ambitions. 

FREE Discovery Call

Expanded Awareness for Absolute Wellness

Absolute Wellness is integrated health of mind, body and spirit. 


Most illnesses, emotional imbalances, whirlpools of the mind, and addictive patterns stem from sub-conscious disturbances.  


The Inner Journey meets past habits and patterns head-on, embraces lessons learned, and releases the past. 

Guidance for your Inner Journey of Self-Discovery

About Buddhi Institute

Buddhi means "in the highest Awareness."


It is a passive and latent principle, yet when this consciousness is awakened, it becomes the reasoning of Higher Self.  


Self-Discovery is the process.  


Buddhi Institute programs are designed to support you every step of the way, providing the tools and guidance you need to live a more conscious, connected, and fulfilling life.

Absolute Awareness

 Higher Consciousness provides Clarity

When we feel in "two minds" about potential direction, or... once we realize that we have been struggling with the patterns of "same issues-a different day," we know that deep within there is a sub-conscious CAUSE, and we seek to find That, make peace with it, and 

rise into a level of consciousness that is above the pattern.
