Root + Rise
Root + Rise is a space for embodied exploration, where rooting down and rising up happen together. Hosted by writer, mentor and consultant, Rohini Walker, this podcast invites you into the nuanced terrain of inner truth, interdependence, and the sacred relationship between land, body, and Self.
Consider this an antidote to a world that wants you in a state of perpetual, unsustainable and disembodied urgency. Through depth, slowness and embodiment, we compost constricting homogeneity, embrace difference, and reclaim alignment with soul through rooting down and rising up.
