Meet David Bernstein of Life Force Project in Cherry Creek North

Today we’d like to introduce you to David Bernstein.

David, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
I thank the universe every day for giving me the opportunity to transform my life in ways that continue to exceed my wildest expectations. I am not a guru, nutritionist, or yogi, but I am passionate about spirituality, wellness and yoga. What I am – what I have always been – is a communicator, a collaborator, a teacher. I am the guy who connects, who gets people excited, and who inspires.

Time for Change. I did not always have my present sense of gratitude and wellbeing. My life was headed in an unfulfilling direction. As an ambitious, hardworking 20-something, I was seduced by the high-profile image, the dollar signs and the sexy lifestyle that came with my role in the finance profession. I became consumed by my work. The concept of a healthy work/life balance was alien to me, and by my late 20’s, I was overweight, stressed out and absorbed by the empty promises of material success. When the financial market crashed, it felt like I had lost everything. I lost my job, my wife, and my identity. But something inside me knew that there had to be more – something greater – and these circumstances brought me to a moment in which I realized something had to change.

Inner-peace through travel. I began traveling extensively. I found myself effortlessly connecting with the energy of this incredible planet; her forests, rivers, mountains, deserts, cities and seas. I cultivated my love for yoga and surfing along empty stretches of Costa Rican beach, found inner peace and spirituality deep within the Sacred Valley of Peru, and ignited my passion for exploration while trekking from the rainforest to the snow-capped peaks of the Sierra Nevada’s in Colombia. I had nothing left to lose and everything to gain. My insatiable hunger for spirituality, peace and wellness drove me to keep on going – every day growing stronger and sounder in body, mind and spirit.

Central and South America drew me in like magnets. Somehow I knew I would blaze a new trail here; I would connect, expand and evolve. I was right. A new connection to the Life Force. Through travel and experience, I began to feel connected to the Life Force – the universal energy that binds every human, animal, plant, wave, mountain and cloud. I discovered an inner strength and peace that I had never truly known. I opened my heart to the many lessons of the universe. I listened to the Life Force, and the world became a magical place full of possibilities. It became a world that gives us exactly what we need when we need it – a world that is always conspiring to support us.

My experiences transformed my life. Now, with a series of Life Force experiences, I am excited to pass this opportunity onto you!

Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Struggles have made this road the most exciting and fulfilling experience imaginable. Gyrating between the seductiveness of the material business world and following my more profound, true “North,” so to speak, was the first challenge I faced when I stepped on this path years ago.

Today, the same kind of reality persists; maintaining a dedication to my heart, my truth, and defying fears and distractions. But this is what keeps my creative expression, actions and inevitably my work in check. The ability to remain aware, curious and patient!

Please tell us about Life Force Project.
As a global wellness production outfit, we curate exceptional experiences that are conducive to change. Our reach spans from Colorado to Colombia and across the Atlantic to the Mediterranean and parts of Asia. We specialize in holding a genuine space for connection, healing, adventure and even transformation. We work strictly in travel settings; and believe that experiencing new places is one of the most potent ways of rediscovering ourselves. The space we create through wellness travel is filled with opportunities to have an amplified experience of wellbeing and awareness. This is what we do well and what I believe sets us apart from others. Transformational environments are not something you can structure, purchase, or plan for- they are the natural alignment of intentions and a passion our team shares for the experience its self. Nothing more.

Is our city a good place to do what you do?
I grew up in Denver and have seen it evolve over almost 40 yrs. This is by far the most exciting time to be here. There is so much creativity, diversity and conscious business happening on various levels. Not to mention some of the country’s most beautiful nature right in our back yard. Wellness wise, Colorado has always been big on health, fun, adventure and progressive thinking..all the boxes we check at Life Force Project.
