Arnie has spent the last fifty years living, studying, and leading. He’s a pioneer of sorts—he co-founded the first acupuncture school in the US, founded the first naturopathic college in California, and founded post-religious spiritual groups too. He also battled cancer, raised a family, and wrote a book (Befriending Your Stranger). He’s a bit of a disruptor, really. He likes to push boundaries and explore possibilities through spiritual teaching and deep work. He has no patience for the status quo. “Life should be playful,” he says.
Are you ready to move forward together?
Arnie offers individual one-on-one consultations and group experiences for those who feel stuck. There’s a whole lotta floating going on. And, as a result, we’re feeling lost in our old ways. Arnie walks with you to dig deeper, find what’s not working in your life—whether it’s financial, spiritual, health, or educational—and offers a path forward.
You can’t just pop in a self-help book and wait until you hear the “ding” of inner contentment. But you can start your journey here.
Sophus means Wisdom, and Arnie is full of Wonder. Sign up for monthly doses of Wisdom & Wonder.

Not just another new age blabberer.
Arnie walks the earth just like you—with regular hills and valleys. Broken heart? Yep, heʼs had a few. Divorce? Been there. Cancer? Slayed that dragon. Arnie is a human being first and admits freely that his own path to self-reclamation has been a bumpy one. He works with people who are struggling to find direction and gives them practical tools to transform inspiration into action. His clients find joy.
Looking for who you are
by Arnie Freiman
Being success and looking
strong
But we know that inside
You are a child
Looking for who you are.
Like the rest of us
Who cry or want to…
For the mother who loved too
much
And the father who couldn’t
speak
You want to know
Why you push so hard
Why you sit with others
Quoting the latest achievers
As they don’t show their pain.
Open to the other
You may find
They bleed like you
And need to cry
The long loud shriek
That hurts at it winds
Its way to your core
Speak from where it’s felt
What can happen
Except hearing your truth
And knowing you belong.
The Discerning Face of Love
Are you hearing footsteps In your core Are they pounding out your fear Do you listen Where does it come And what is it really. Your heart is awakening Possibly from many years Or just a few minutes ago. Do you remember, did it hurt Or was the laughter and joy So...
Take A Breath
When a glass drops… When we cannot open a jar… When we get lost on the same trip a dozen times… You know these feelings. I know them, too. Our inside feels tight and we are upset. And these are just trivial things, really. So what happens when something important...
How Are You?
We greet each other most of the time with a "How are you?". Sometimes we mean it. And sometimes we do not. In fact, have you ever really answered the person honestly? I've been aware and uncomfortable with empty words for years. But, especially today in this surreal...
