Be, Build, and Go Beyond is what we call the 3 phases within our programs to provide the steps to awaken within, therefore without. Our intention within these 3 phases is to provide resources and education to meet the needs of those who are seeking assistance to grow into their intended being, to become a sustainable people, as well as for those who are seeking to assist within our programs to raise the awareness and awakening that transforms suffering into self empowerment.
Explore each phase to find the path in which you are presently seeking.
Phase 1
As we seek to further our understanding of how the world operates, as our hearts search for solutions to end unnecessary suffering, and as we carry the weight of our own extreme circumstances wondering if we might ever find the answers or assistance we need, the first important step is to begin looking within. We must met ourselves to find the answers we are searching for, seeing into our own suffering, as well as our own potential. For the work we do for ourselves is what creates the solid foundation of knowing who we are, hence our purpose. Thus, allowing us to see a clearer picture into the world without, giving us insight into why there is vast suffering in the first place.

Knowledge is Wealth
True education is knowledge of the interconnectedness of all things, the operation of life itself, gracefully, yet powerfully, cycling within a ratio of perfection allowing this operation to exist in cooperation within all of its components without complication, therefore true education is not complicated.
We can find knowledge everywhere. We can learn from the trees, animals, insects, elements, and Sacred Geometry. We can learn from our bodies, our experiences in life, our relationships within the interconnectedness to earth and to each other, as well as our presence within meditation and movement.
Ground School is a true educational program that incorporates these truths as our teacher. It is the learning of the operation, cooperation, and the components which uphold the sustainability of life and provides the awareness of the role we play in this intricate design, directly teacheing us how we exist in the workings of life as inhabitants of earth in relation to each other. Therefore true education is key to continue, as well as restore the true performance of earths infrastructure and within our society.
As we explore these relationships we learn this role we play as humans is simply upholding this design in the reverence for it as ourselves. We must learn what the trees know, as they hold space for each other in relation to the earth and the sun.
We believe there is a significant loss of the awareness of true education, impacting the connection to ourselves and contributing to a cycle of suffering. Ground School dives deep within the consonant roots of what composes life and how learning from it constitutes emotional, mental, and physical wellness. It provides an abundance of knowledge aiding in the success of one’s well being, producing a profound, yet uncomplicated understanding into one’s existence, therefore promoting a higher learning that is critical for optimal functioning as a people, hence our environment.
Ground School contains the fundamental essence of true learning, as it is interwoven within all of our programs, giving us a sturdy ground to understand life itself and our important roles, as well as Wakeup Steps to Wellness to self evaluate and examine where we are at presently and what direction we can grow towards for full potential within our existence.

A program formulated to guide our hearts full expression through any medium.
We understand that life can prevent us from pursuing what the heart wants to express. Sometimes our circumstances can be so dire that we lose hope and live in a state of confusion and disbelief, further blocking us from our truth.
We believe in the power of the heart. Our heart’s expression unlocks our truths, as it holds the wisdom we need to see clearly.
Heart Guiding Arts Canvas of Love connects those in need to explore and nurture their natural born inner artist in their own unique way, using their heart’s expression for healing and self guidance, trusting that there is absolutely no wrong way of the expression of it, as the heart is the true you and your true story.
Our heart based program allows this story to be told in a free flow creative form, giving hope through the heart’s true voice by painting, writing, sculptures, and any facet to facilitate inspiration, including visual guided prompts, self guided practices, and free movement/dance as a living canvas.
Our goal with the Heart Guiding Arts Canvas of Love program is to promote healing within, through the expression without; to inspire direction, passion and confidence, as well as mend the mind and emotional body using the power of art as an avenue to alleviate anxiety, mental stressors, advance self realization, and empower those with special needs and circumstances.
Heart Guiding Arts is a Canvas of Love, drawing up our own artist essence through the power of expressing our story.

Be you is a program to allow yourself to recognize who it is you are and know it is all you need to be.
Often our identity gets lost in life’s circumstances, misguided or influenced in a way that creates an absence of authenticity or loss of distinction within our state of being. We then begin comparing ourselves to others, wondering who it is we are or who we need to be.
The good news is you were born inherently equipped to be all that you are. You are already enough and have what it takes to be you. Sometimes we just need the opportunity to rediscover ourselves and to know you are worth the time and effort it takes to meet the real you in self devoted practice.
Within this program we practice the 3 R’s:
•Recognizing
•Reconnecting
•Reconciliation
Be You implements various practices to find what works for you in guiding yourself to be in harmony with your intrinsic nature. This program offers you You. Be You empowers you by being yourself in the learning to harness your own knowing and to embody the richness of your being. This embodiment is your power practice and constitutes a continuous healthy relationship with yourself, giving you the freedom to break self limiting boundaries that prevent you from being you.
Be the you, you are already! We are here to help.

The Creator of The WakeUp Project developed The Ripley Effect program and documentary with her son, Ripley, when he was 13 years old. Together they formulated this program while Ripley had undergone severe bullying in school. The Ripley Effect serves as the Anti-bullying practice for the nonprofit organization, as Ripley’s passion to turn our personal experiences of bullying into empowerment has lead the way.
The Ripley Effect is essential to give youth the understanding of what is projected out from another person is not theirs to keep. It provides learning steps that set and continue empowerment in motion, by realizing what we do or react to in a cause and effect understanding is not only for thier well being, but creates the ripples for another to do the same.
The Ripley Effect is based on movement and reflective meditation, as well as other expressive techniques for youth to gain awareness and understanding into themselves emotionally, mentally, and physically, giving them permission to speak, feel, and know what doesn’t serve them and how it can be moved out of the heart, mind, and body.
This practice is for both sides of bullying, as we believe everyone is learning from a cycled learned behavior.
Our goal is to allow youth the freedom needed for awakening the tools within, discovering worth within themselves and in others, and to empower their true voice, true expression, therefore their true essence. We aim to advance youth in the knowing of what inherently belongs within their being, they just need the oppurnitity to realize it.
Our vision is to reduce bullying, youth suicide, school shootings, and promote adolescent behavioral support by implementing The Ripley Effect practice in schools and other community facilities, ultimately eliminating these tragedies altogether.
We believe NO child should feel alone in their pain. We are passionate to educate the tools within to break these fear subjected cycles and the severe consequences they produce.
Our youth needs us.

Waking the world one note at a time
Music is everywhere. It is everything. It is the sound of nature. The sound of life. The power of music helps us remember our true essence. It is the vibration of all things, including ourselves.
An instrument connects us further in the harmony that is felt in the oneness of all through sound. It is our expression of emotion, our physical state, our being, our story. It is a language, a voice that transcends beyond a spoken word throughout layers, lifetimes, and lineages.
In this musical translation, we call to those with hearts to hear, as well as listen to our own heart and allow it to be heard within its song.
Music Matters brings the healing and support for anyone that is in need to connect to themselves, to others, as well as to the interconnectedness of all.
Music Matters program offers various ways we incorporate music together, such as drum circles, free play (jam), water gatherings, nursing homes, child developmnt/behavior institutes, shelters, community meditation, concerts, sharing cultural music, as well as providing music mentors for those who are in need of nurturing their musical abilities, giving them motivational support, furthering their freedom to express through music. We also connect Music Matters program with our Be You Meditative Movement Workshop when needed, as it is a way we explore our bodies as an instrumental extension of sound and within movement and dance.
Make Music Matter and help sustain the importance of it. Connect with us here and support the freedom of our expression through music.
Empower yourself, empower the world
Your dreams are not a mistake, it is your calling. After all, it is your dream and one day you’ll wake up to it.
What ignites the flame in your heart? What is calling you to leap with joy?
Your Passion IS Your Purpose is a program to support those in need of a guiding light into their life purpose by implementing a practice to facilitate a deeper knowing to enlighten one into self discovery and self empowerment. This practice can open the inner dimensional self to explore what we are intended to do in our lives by embracing our passions.
We believe we all have a purpose and our unique passions align us to what that purpose is. When we don’t realize this connection of our passions as purpose, we can become confused and lost within our life direction, causing great suffering. That is why we know discovering our purpose is a transformative life line that carries us in self propelling motion to what we are meant to be and do.
Your Passion IS Your Purpose is for all in search of their life purpose, to assist in the realization and support of that unique purpose, and for those who may be suffering with self worth and direction. This program uses guided visualization meditation, writing, and other expressive techniques to enlighten one into a deeper understanding of their purpose, as this can also be woven within our other programs for a broader range of connection and realization of your heart’s true passion.
Connect with us to empower your purpose.
Phase 2
As we learn of the operation of our role within the world and implement it through our unique purpose, we become what we are truly intended to be, fulfilling our part that is imperative to the coexistence of life. When we understand this web of coexistence, we then realize our loving duty to be and build with conscious regard to sustain the balance of the earth and it’s inhabitants in it’s true intended purpose. We know that tipping that balance contributes to a larger web of suffering if not heeded. It is the awareness that if earth is not functioning as intended, we are not functioning as intended.

A program to support your passion as purpose
Once we realize what we are intended to do as our purpose, sometimes we could use a little help making that step in making it a reality. The WakeUp Project is eager to help support that purpose by providing the resources to do so through our Passion in Action program.
We believe some individuals need assistance to nurture their passions and receive help to connect them in the direction needed. Whether it be assistance with providing funds or searching further in the interconnected web of open doors, we are here to be that support.
Connect with us to support you in your Passion in Action.
“We are what we eat”. We have all heard this phrase, but eating goes beyond what it does to us physically. What we do and don’t eat effects us mentally and emotionally, and how we mass produce food environmentally, effects us in all of these categories as well.
We understand the masses are not aware of what takes place in our bodies when we eat certain foods. We may not realize the critical foods we are missing in our diets. We might think we are eating healthy, but do not realize what damage it is causing on a large scale. We also understand that some individuals and communities are not able to have access to a healthy diet and endure much privation. Therefore disease is at an all time high, creating an imbalance or what we call, a cycle of suffering.
There is a flip side to Eating For A Change, as becoming aware and educated on the power of conscious eating and conscious gardening can reverse damage physically, mentally, emotionally, and environmentally. This produces a cycle of healing for ourselves and the planet, simultaneously, creating a balance within and without.
Eating For A Change provides a ‘health’ of knowledge through awareness and education to connect and assist with those who suffer from health complications, mental and emotional disorders, lack of community support, and the undernourished. Ultimately, helping to feed and flourish the mind, body, and emotional well being into optimal quality of life, creating a platform for a thriving community as a whole. We aim to protect biodiversity, support organic/bio agriculture and permaculture, as well educate the public on self sustainable gardening, community gardening, and the truth of conventional and animal agriculture in how it impacts our planet and health. All in all, Eating for a Change positively impacts over all well being.
The WakeUp Project understands education is power and knowing the power of what we consume and how we grow our food can have a massive effect for wellness for all. We also are currently connecting with other conscious food and health teachers who we feel have a lot to offer in this education, as well as integrating Eating for a Change as an option within our Habitat Awake Bio Building Program and Environment Awake.
Please contact us to learn further how we can help provide an educational platform to begin the power of conscious eating for you, your community, and environment.
We are the environment. What effects the environment, effects us.
Where do we begin when it comes to environmental crisis? What are the first steps to create a shift in environmental injustice? We may feel helpless to think we could ever really restore the earth and heal those that are effected by the damage that has taken place, however, to create the shift we need, asking these questions is the first step. It may be wise to ask further, how did the environment come to it’s current condition and what is contributing to global disaster? We may not know where to begin when it comes to becoming the change we need, but quite literally, educating ourselves on what is causing these environmental consequences is a powerful beginning.
Education is the keystone. Learning the bigger picture in the rooted causes of environmental suffering is a powerful step in the right direction. By educating ourselves in what is taking place, we then learn the ways we impact and contribute to environmental suffering as a consumer, we then realize that what we do to the environment effects us as a whole, we then see the importance of our role as inhabitants of earth, furthering our understanding in the power and duty we hold as a humanity, which leads us to the next step that will direct the earth, therefore it’s people, back to sustainability—Applying this knowledge into action.
Applying education as the power of change, changes the outcome of what is negatively effecting our well being within our environmental surroundings, sustains, restores, and prevents further damage to a hurting world, as well as awakens and supports conscious consumerism. Action within this knowledge produces the shift we need by empowering self sustainability, holds the space for community outreach and restoration, and advocates for environmental injustices.
We have to ask ourselves, what are we leaving behind for our future generations? How can we individually and collectively allow this suffering to continue when the cause and the answer is in the hands of humanity itself?
We must Awake to what is happening, what has happened, and what will happen if we keep going in an unconscious direction environmentally. We must Awake Within to know our own power to be the change. We must Awake to truth within the education of sustainability in every way—healing humanity as a whole.
Environment Awake seeks to assist the learning in how animal agriculture, conventional agriculture, deforestation, fossil fuel, disrupting land lines, and biodiversity abolishment is destroying and polluting our planet’s ecosystem, therefore poisoning it’s inhabitants. We seek to Protect our waters, resources, land lines, the air we breathe, indigenous rights and the rights of all who are subjected to environmental injustices. We seek to support biodiversity, bio agriculture/organic agriculture, permaculture, sustain our natural ecosystems, and support the conscious corporations and organizations big and small who are sustainably driven, all in which sustains ourselves and our future.
In addition, we have implemented our programs: Ground School True Educational Learning Program, Eating for a change, Habitat Awake Bio Building Program, WakeUp Stories, as well as our Awareness
Walks, which vary on the specific needs at the present time, to provide the awareness and education needed to achieve our goal for the well being for all.

Educating ourselves on how we can become a sustainable community people using the Habitat Awake Bio Building Program unravels the blocks that are covering our tracks, leading us back to life itself, connecting us into our wholeness and humanity, healing the earth, hence ourselves by shaping a new future of sustainability.
There is a grounding truth when learning of the harmony within the operation of life itself. This learning provides a way for us to restore the connection to ourselves, as we remember it’s worth as our own. We then understand the importance of sustainable living, that using bio materials with conscious regard of the balance and accordance of the earth and the implementation of a well rounded sustainable system designed for one to thrive, not only gives back to the environment, but gives us all we need to prosper.
Earth provides us with all we need, however currently there are vast amounts of individuals and communities who are enduring much privation. We believe sustainable living using Habitat Awake Bio Building program is the answer to this urgent issue, as WakeUp Earth Homes are sustainable dwellings that are economical, durable, and effective.
Education in the freedom of what earth has to offer, not only provides for us physically and contributes environmentally, but also supports us mentally and socially, as within the Habitat Awake Bio Building program we have implemented an integrative course geared towards working together, giving an opportunity to empower one’s self and as a community, delving deep into earth energy as a way to remember ourselves, our true nature, where we came from, and where we are headed. Reminding us that life serves each other, teaching that life knows where to be and grow, as it sustains it’s balance, not disrupting it. And as we grow deeper into this knowledge, we would know that implementing this education and bio resources is the blue print we need to rehabilitate humanity, simultaneously, restoring the earth as we expand into sustainable communities.
Our vision with the Habitat Awake Bio Building Program is to provide resources and education as a not for profit purpose to those in need. We currently are implementing options in building, as it is geared to fit the needs and environmental location of its inhabitants. We are also currently connecting with conscious engineers, hemp farmers and hemp industrialists to support their mission, as well as to continue to cultivate a fully efficient design integrated in the building of WakeUp Earth Homes, supporting each other, the growth of the development of Habitat Awake, and the environment further.
Habitat Awake Bio Building Program serves to assist in the education of self sustainability, while positively supporting the environment. This program serves those who are in need of shelter, food, and water, connects and serves community rehabilitation, and implements adolescent behavioral support and mental/emotional health within the interactive course, as well as educates those looking for a self sustainable lifestyle and those who are choosing to make a environmental difference. It is also paired with our programs Ground School, Eating for a Change, and Environment Awake to receive a wealth of knowledge in this matter, as it connects us in the learning relationship of holding reverence for the earth as ourselves.
Contact us here to support our program, as the contribution you give continues to build, design, and secure the future of our generations and restore and save our planet or to learn more in how Habitat Awake Bio Building Program provides you and your community a foundation of sustainable coexistence for life itself.
