Spiritual Events in Asheville, NC
What Is Root & Rise?
Join us in Asheville, NC for a monthly in person gathering that invites ancient wisdom and intuition to find a home inside modern evolving humans.
We live in bodies that are still wired for tribe, ritual, and rhythm. But let’s be real, most people don’t have a place to experience that on a regular basis.
Root + Rise is remembering that older way of being human, made relevant and accessible for your busy modern reality.
This container is designed to help you remember…
That your body already holds the intelligence to heal.
That your emotions are an energetic wave meant to move.
And that the wisdom traditions humans have leaned on for thousands of years still work (and can work for you where you are now.)
Every Month Is a New Experience
We don’t repeat the same format twice. Each gathering is fresh, shaped by the season, the astrology, what’s alive in the collective field, and what wants to come through both of us as facilitators.
You’ll experience a unique session exploring your inner world guided by our tools of presence:
- Shamanic journeywork — an ancient practice led by drum and rattle, opening non-ordinary states of consciousness
- Somatic movement practice — instead of talking or thinking about what you feel, you let your body express and release it directly
- Ceremonial cacao — our heart-opening plant ally that softens the body and opens the emotional field so that we can go deeper
- Transformational Group Coaching — receive personalized guidance, while being seen and held by the community. You’ll come away with clarity and confidence to take the next step.
- Yoga Nidra — a guided descent into deep rest where the nervous system finally gets to stop performing and simply be
- Gene Keys Contemplation — dive into teachings from humanity’s most important living wisdom system, all contained in your own DNA
- Sound, Song, Story, & Connection — we’re leaving space for magic from the Universe to surprise us and you with innovative ways to heal and grow in community
The container and commitment is consistent: Two hours every month where we help you come home to your body, your emotions, and your own inner wisdom. What changes is the medicine we use to get you there.
Who This Is For…
Root + Rise is for you if:
- You’re craving embodiment, not just more information. You’ve read the books, done the therapy, and you’re ready for practices that work through direct experience
- You feel most yourself in ritual, ceremony, and circle and you miss having a regular place to return to that feeling of belonging and being known
- You’re already familiar with expanded states (through psychedelics, breathwork, meditation, or other spiritual growth practices) and want an ongoing container to keep integrating and deepening
- You want a monthly rhythm of grounding and release, rather than a single big experience you have to plan your whole life around
- You’re drawn to ancient wisdom traditions and want to experience them held responsibly, with care, and in community
