Welcome to Root and Rise!

My name is Lorain and I love:

🌿 working together with the wisdom of nature,

🌿 (re)connecting to our true (natural) self,

🌿 living our most fulfilling and joyful life,

🌿 adding to a more sustainable and beautiful world for all.

“Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself” – Rumi

🌿 How?

Coaching

Engage in transformative coaching that encompasses nature-based, systemic & (family) constellations, and art/creative modalities.

Yoga

Experience the tranquility of yin, nidra, and restorative yoga as pathways to release tension, quiet the mind, and restore balance within.

Campfire Circles

Join our bi-monthly campfire sharing circles,where you are invited to share and listen to what truly lives in you.

 

Each offering is based on timeless teachings that nature generously provides such as from the natural elements, the seasons, the wheel of the year, nature symbology, etc. and thereby aims to help bridge the gap between indigenous nature wisdom and modern life. You’ll learn to shush the chatter of your mind, and start to reconnect with your body and emotions, start to hear the subtle whispers within, listen to your inner voice, desires, and boundaries. You will start to discern what truly matters to you, and rediscover the flow that brings vitality to your life and relationships.

 

🌿 Why and For Who?

We all understand that the demands and opportunities of our modern lifestyles can lead us astray at times, causing us to become disconnected from our own inner selves, nature and/or others. If this continues for too long it can also lead to complaints such as experiencing stress, anxiety, burn-out, bore-out, feeling insecure, having difficulty in decision making or adapting to a change, feeling a lack of meaning in your life or relationships, etc. At a most basic level, maybe you recognise yourself in the description above and/or one or all of the following:

Feel trapped in repetitive thoughts or patterns, hindering your personal growth

Feel disconnected from your body and emotions, impacting your overall well-being

Seek a holistic approach to self development and growth, rooted in the wisdom of nature

🌿 Inspiration

 

Nature is the inspiration and also for the name: Root & Rise. Personal growth is similar to the growth of a tree; just as a tree must first root itself firmly in the darkness of the earth before it can grow and rise towards the lightness of the sky, so a person must root into who they are, in order to rise into who they are. Each time rooting a bit deeper and rising a bit higher. Root & Rise is inspired by and with respect for nature and indigenous wisdom, with a focus on Celtic and Native American; working from the profound understanding that our true essence is intertwined with the natural world.
