“The Bridge Builder moves with grace—listening, feeling, and gently guiding what longs to come together. Rooted in truth, carried by spirit, and open to the beauty of connection.”
As bridge builders, we are a collective force dedicated to connecting worlds—linking the ancient wisdom of indigenous cultures with the needs and challenges of the modern world. We recognize the profound knowledge and insight embedded in the traditions, rituals, and languages of indigenous peoples, which have sustained them for millennia.
Our mission is to honor and preserve these sacred traditions, ensuring they are not lost in the face of rapid change. But we don’t just aim to preserve; we seek to foster mutual learning and understanding. By building bridges, we invite the wisdom of the past to guide the present and future, helping to heal our collective disconnection from the Earth and one another.
We believe that true progress comes from integrating the deep respect for nature and all life that indigenous cultures embody, with the innovations of today. As bridge builders, we are not merely connecting people and ideas, but also restoring balance, encouraging growth, and fostering a future where harmony and respect prevail.
In unity, guided by compassion and shared purpose, we strive to ensure that the light of indigenous wisdom continues to shine brightly, lighting the way forward for all of humanity.
Elisa moves through life with quiet devotion, listening to the unseen, guided by a force older than words. In 2017, she answered a call that had always been there—one that led her into the heart of indigenous traditions. In Mexico, she sat with wisdom keepers whose songs carried the weight of generations, whose presence awakened something ancient within her. From that moment, the path was clear.
But her journey did not begin there. Long before stepping into these traditions, Elisa was already attuned to the subtle realms—the spaces between, where body, mind, and spirit weave their quiet dance. Healing, for her, is not a method but a remembering. A way of holding space for what is sacred, for what longs to return home.
Seeking to deepen this devotion, she moved to a retreat center in Germany, where she immersed herself in spiritual practice, becoming a Yoga Teacher and Theta Healing Practitioner. Yet titles mean little—what truly shaped her was the unseen work, the silent initiations, the way Spirit moved through every encounter. She found herself not only learning but serving, tending to ceremonies that were far older than her own understanding.
A profound bond with the Yawanawá elders took her deeper still, leading her into the rainforest, where the jungle itself became her teacher. Through sacred diets and long periods of solitude, she entered a conversation beyond words—one of listening, surrendering, and being transformed. The Earth spoke, and she learned to hear.
Elisa walks this path not to seek, but to share. Through Naraya, the non-profit organisation she co-founded, she bridges worlds, honoring and uplifting the voices of those who have carried this wisdom for centuries. She does not claim to hold answers—only space. A space for remembering, for reconnecting, for returning to what has always been there.
Born in Iran, the journey of leaving home began early. At the age of four, Anusche and her family fled their homeland, seeking refuge and a new beginning. A childhood of constant movement shaped her, teaching her to adapt, to listen, and to find home not in one place, but within herself. Germany became the land of her longest stay, yet the search for deeper belonging and meaning remained at the heart of her path.
Drawn to the mysteries of human development and the unseen layers of existence, she dedicated over 15 years to studying Waldorf pedagogy, Anthroposophy, and intuitive ways of learning. Working closely with children, she cultivated a deep understanding of the soul’s unfolding, sensing early on that her path would lead beyond conventional education into the realms of inner transformation and healing.
This calling led her to explore ways of guiding others through inner processes of remembrance and reconnection. In time, her path brought her deep into the Brazilian rainforest, where she immersed herself in the ancestral wisdom of the Yawanawá people. Through profound study and deep initiations, she formed a bond with the sacred traditions of the forest, receiving prayers and teachings that continue to shape her work and being.
Upon returning, she felt a clear calling—to bridge the gap between indigenous traditions and the Western world, creating spaces for exchange that honor these ancient lineages while fostering sustainable, respectful collaboration. As a co-founder of Naraya, a non-profit organization, she is dedicated to nurturing projects that safeguard this sacred wisdom, while actively supporting the well-being and preservation of indigenous communities. Rooted in respect and reciprocity, Naraya’s mission is to ensure that these powerful traditions continue to thrive, weaving a global network of shared healing, knowledge, and mutual respect.
More than anything, she walks this path as a mother, a bridge between worlds, and a guardian of the future. Her journey is a prayer—for her children, and for all children—to inherit a world where the wisdom of the old and the hope of the new walk hand in hand. A world where the sacred is remembered, where the Earth is honored, and where every soul is free to blossom into its truest light.
