Expand Every Part of Your Mind
If you're ready to expand every part of your mind and prepared to pull up your sleeves and earn some real insight, Soken and Bodhi Heart is your best bet in NYC - likely on the eastern seaboard.
—Thomas, Entrepreneur, NYC
The Clarity I Needed
After struggling for weeks trying to figure out the right thing to do, a 1-hour call with him gave me the clarity I needed. By answering a series of thoughtful questions and hearing my answers reflected back to me, I was able to untangle the signal from the noise.
By the end of the call, the answer revealed itself. It's been a few weeks since our call and I still feel great about the decision. I'm so grateful to Soken for helping me with this and won't hesitate to reach out again for more life coaching.

I embarked on a series of spiritual coaching sessions during the pandemic, whereI began exploring a career transition and possible relocation. Soken’s wisdom, compassion, and light make this an amazing experience that meets you where you are, giving you invaluable and sound tools for growth and self-care. I can't recommend Soken highly enough.

Compassionate Support to Expand my Horizons
I have been working with Soken for the past couple of years and he has supported me greatly in starting a life-changing journey. I have guidance without judgement, I have compassionate support to expand my horizons, I am continuously learning, and I have been able to connect more with my true nature. I am very thankful to have found meditative guidance at Bodhi Heart and I highly recommend it.

On a Path With a Plan
I was feeling confused. I was not sure where to begin. My biggest struggle was discovering the source of my frustration – my growing discontent with the sensation of feeling “stuck” – and how to act upon it by examining my values and what I want in life.
I immediately noticed [in working with Soken] that I was able to be more aware. I was paying more attention to life and how I live it as opposed to feeling like a bystander.
I feel like I am now on a path, with a plan. I have direction and can move forward, and enjoy the journey.

Building a More Harmonious World
The professionality is extreme and the attention and care to the client and the support are thoughtful and full of meaning. I recommend this service to anyone seeking physical work and/or for those seeking a more fulfilling life that mirrors in which their deep inner desires and dreams are brought to light—especially with the motivation of building a more harmonious world where we can all live and thrive rather than merely survive.

Strategies to Move Forward
I had seen a lot of doctors, therapists, and nutritionists. I left many of those sessions in tears and confused.
With coaching, I always felt the opposite - energized and clear on what I needed to do. Our [coaching] sessions inspired me to take action. And even more than that, it empowered me to look for different actions I could take within certain situations. Instead of going round and round with a situation, I found strategies to move forward, and as a result I feel much better.
My health has improved in a way that sometimes brings me to tears. And at work, I have been approved for a promotion. These sessions helped me heal, and I’m looking forward to the future.
—Destiny, HR Wellness Manager, Austin, TX
Established a Pattern of Success
I was struggling with turning my vision into concrete steps and clarifying my goals.
Soken has a firm grasp of how to elicit intentions and how to move from there towards goals. For me these are long term goals, but along the way we found short-term, achievable objectives that made the journey incredibly productive and satisfying.
I highly recommend Soken Graf for coaching. He helped me build my confidence, clarify my goals, and establish a pattern of success that led to me knowing I can build my dreams, no matter how big!
—Andy, Writer, Albany, NY
Changed My Uncreative Thought Patterns
My biggest struggle that transformed as a result of coaching was changing my uncreative thought patterns.
Prior to coaching, I felt like I was stuck in a negative story.
I now feel what was depressing uncertainty around me is rather a cloud with boundaries and a source of inspiration—and it can be experienced differently and made so much better and more beautiful.
I’m in a happier place with my work and can’t even begin to express my thankfulness for this.
Soken is a well of incredible knowledge. He gives an example of non-judgmental and creative hopefulness. It's been really fun as well. I laughed as much as thought deeply and better. I am very grateful I had the chance.
—Lydia, PhD Candidate, NYC
Soken Graf at BodhiHeart Coaching was amazing, helping me to clarify dreams, establish goals, and set up achievable steps to bring goals to reality. He listened carefully, held space for my needs, and was incredibly enthusiastic and focused. Highly recommend!
—Andrea, NY
The sessions are so calming and reassuring. I am glad to have found and been coached by Soken. These sessions have really gotten to the core of my issues and now I have practical solutions for them. Soken is the coach you need.

Helped Me Overcome the Fear of Taking the Next Step
I highly recommend Soken as he's a fantastic coach! Soken really helped me set clear goals and measures, helped me to get to insight, and ensures that I have a strong action plan with accountability in every session. Soken's coaching helped me overcome the fear of taking the next step. Soken is sensitive and provides compassionate support through the process.

Rolfing
Soken is one of the most amazing people you will ever meet in life. He is a true healer in all facets and simply the BEST advanced rolfer you will ever find out there. PERIOD. Your search for finding the best should end with him. He is extremely intuitive & understands your body's energy and how it correlates to the pain or injury that you feel. I have seen him regularly for the last few years and my body has never felt better. He has fixed many issues I have encountered and he always provides insight that no one has told me before. The man is a natural and I am so grateful to have him in my life.
—Rhanda, San Francisco, CA
The First to Give Me Relief in 2 Years
I came to Soken after having seen at least 3 acupuncturists, 2 physical therapists and a handful of specialists for a back-pain that has been with me for almost 2 years now. His sessions are the first to give me some relief and I'm glad to have found him. The sessions are intense but absolutely worth it. His ability to hone in or problems is incredible..
—Ben, Website Developer, Queens, NY
Soken Has Made Me Feel As Good As New
Soken is an incredibly gifted Rolfer and a wonderful human being. I'm a semi-competitive runner trying to get my body to feel as young as my mind! Despite being over 40 I still have faith that I'll be able to match the times of my youth. But with age comes little problems, which compound into larger ones. I initially came to Soken to treat a nagging achilles injury. After a couple sessions it was clear that the achilles pain was just a symptom of a greater structural imbalance which had effects all over my body. Soken carefully and effectively treated a host of issues that I didn't even know I had. In between treatments, I was able to train with greater fluidity but after just 3 sessions, Soken has made me feel as good as new. I feel a sense of stability, power and balance that I haven't felt for quite some time. I would recommend him for anyone seeking to increase their performance or address injury (he treated underlying issues from a should dislocation too which had bearing on my achilles injury). In short, he truly understands the connectedness of the body and is a master at helping people achieve their health goals.
