Root & Rise
A Sacred Spiral of Healing
Root & Rise is a meditation sanctuary for people who are tired of pushing, fixing, and holding it all together.
This is a space to slow your nervous system, come back into your body, and remember what it feels like to be steady, clear, and supported — without striving.
Stillness is not the absence of movement. It’s the medicine your soul remembers.
Why Root & Rise?
Root & Rise was created for moments when life feels loud, demanding, or unrelenting — and you need somewhere to exhale.
The practices here are not about productivity, performance, or becoming a “better” version of yourself. They are about returning to what is already here — your breath, your body, your inner rhythm.
Founded by Melissa Larsen, Reiki Master, meditation teacher, and energy alchemist, this space was born from her own journey through a season of unraveling and deep healing.
Root & Rise is for you if…
You feel overstimulated, anxious, or quietly exhausted
You carry stress in your body and don’t know how to let it go
You’ve tried meditation but felt unsure if you were “doing it right”
You are sensitive, intuitive, or deeply feeling and need a gentler approach
You’re drawn to healing that actually lands — not just insight, but integration
You’re not looking for something to consume — you’re looking for something to land.
A note on Integration
This work is not passive — it invites participation and integration.
Depending on the meditation, you may notice effects for a few days afterward — feeling more tired or more energized than usual, changes in appetite, emotional or physical release, or simply feeling really good.
This is part of integration. Hydration, gentle movement, rest, and supportive practices like Epsom salt baths are encouraged.
What it Feels like
Root & Rise is designed to feel like being gently guided back into yourself.
The meditations are slow, embodied, and grounding. Some are short and stabilizing — meant to support daily regulation. Others, particularly the Lunar Journey meditations, work more like energy healing sessions, creating space for release, integration, and deep rest.
People often describe feeling calmer, clearer, more present, or simply more themselves afterward.

The Path
There are three ways to walk with Root & Rise.
The Spiral Path offers gentle daily grounding, the Lunar Journey invites slower, cyclical healing, and Sacred Alchemy opens space for deeper inner transformation. Choose the path that matches where you are right now.
Daily grounding and nervous system support. Short, accessible meditations designed to meet you in real life — steady, supportive, and regulating.
Monthly healing aligned with the moon Deeper meditations that work with emotional release, energetic clearing, and cyclical renewal. These are longer, more immersive experiences designed to support reflection, release, and intentional reset over time.
For those ready to work with deeper layers of healing — including belief patterns, emotional transmutation, and embodied integration. This path is for members who feel called to go beyond regulation and reflection, into conscious transformation. It includes access to all Root & Rise meditations, along with opportunities for deeper, personalized alchemical work.
