When I joined the TerraLuna, I felt that I was in a life crisis, looking for support. I didn’t know whether I was on the right path in my private life and professionally. Despite initial doubts about the online format, the support from the sisters quickly made me feel truly connected. Feeling seen and heard from the sisters empowered me to make important decisions for myself. Elena was the heart of our group and perfectly filled her role as our guide and mentor. I recommend the course to all the women in the world.
Rising Rooted
We’re upgrading our website and offers. Rising Rooted is coming back soon!
Welcome to a community of women that radically commit to reclaim their own wellbeing, power and bodies. Together we expand and grow.
Here you are welcome as you are.
In this community your differences, imperfections and story are what makes you beautiful and unique. We whole heartedly embrace all the nuances of your full expression, by creating safe spaces and experiences based on authentic vulnerability, non judgment and radical acceptance.
Does this sound familiar?
- You’re tired to always be the Good Girl, full of smiles and kind words, even when inside of you you’re raging with a burning fire.
- You can’t stand others telling you what to do and how to live your life anymore, but at the same time you’ve lost touch with your power and inner guidance and don’t know what to do to change your life.
- You often feel alone with your struggles, emotions, pain and wish to have a supportive community that is always there for you.
- You feel deeply disconnected from your body and your intuition. You’ve lost meaning in your life and struggle to trust yourself. You don’t identify anymore with the belief system you grew up with and are looking to explore a new way of living your life that is more aligned to your own needs and dreams.
If this is you, it means you’re ready to step into your essence as a liberated, empowered woman to completely transform your life.
It can be daunting to take the first step to change for the good, this is why Rising Rooted was created: as a safe and supportive space for women to expand and grow together.
When women gather, we change our lives and rewrite the collective story.
From online mentorship journeys to gatherings and retreats, at Rising Rooted we gather with the intention to remember our essence as women, while supporting each other in our paths.
CYCLICAL LIVING
The biggest power that women and menstruating people have is our menstrual cycle. By reclaiming the knowledge and wisdom of our cycles, we step into the fullest embodiment of our power in this world. Together we transform our lives by releasing the shame around menstruality, our bodies and the full range of our being. Tuning into our cyclical body means radically changing our lives.
EMBODIMENT & EARTH-BASED WISDOM
We are one with Nature. Therefore, our body is the Earth-body. All natural elements influence our lives in a harmonious dance of interconnections and exchange between the outside and the inside worlds. We go back to the essential parts of our beings; this will feel like a coming home to yourself. Reconnecting to the wisdom of our cyclical bodies, the Moon cycle and the Earth energies. Bridging modern mindfulness with ancient traditions.
SISTERHOOD
Sitting in a circle with women will change your life forever. Gathering with women is an ancient ceremonial practice that allows us to connect to the cycles of life, of our bodies, of the Moon, and our hearts. Through intimate gatherings, from women’s circles to workshops and retreats, both online and in person (in English and Italian), we create a community for individual and collective healing.
TerraLuna Sisterhood
Become part of an intimate community of up to 13 women for a transformational 2-months deep mentorship journey into womanhood.
This is not another course on how to fix yourself—because you’re not broken. Rather it’s a journey of remembering your essence and reconnecting to your innate wisdom and power, to deeply transform your life.
This group mentorship is for the women who are ready to step out of the victim role, keeping themselves small. For those ready to take ownership of their lives and their bodies.
Even though most of us were foreign to each other I felt so much support and love just for who I am. The space holding and the energy of each gathering was very nourishing for myself and I could connect with my core and body in a loving way.
I love the essence of it. I love your energy. I love the intention, love and details Elena put into her work. I like the women who are attracting to come to circles. I felt very comfortable and supported.
I love the feeling of belonging, listening to other women, sharing, learning, the vulnerability, the energy created, connecting to amazing women, and Elena was always an amazing host.
A community that changes people’s lives and our story is deeply grounded in core values.
Women’s empowerment rooted in self-care, self-knowledge, embodiment and connection.
INDIVIDUAL & COLLECTIVE SUPPORT
We deeply believe that individual wellbeing is inherently connected to the collective one. We care for ourselves as we care for the Other—people and all living beings—with respect and reciprocal support. The biggest transformation comes when we embrace the interconnectedness that is at the core of our ecosystem.
GROUNDED & ESSENTIAL
By reconnecting to Earth- and body-based practices we are guided to go back to the essential parts of life, that are the most healing in a society that is disconnecting us to our innate power and wisdom. We speak the language of the body, the heart and Nature: the universal language of experiencing life at its fullest.
HONEST & OPEN
We’re not a performative community. We welcome your whole self. We’re not preaching ‘light and love’, and don’t care about how aesthetically pleasing the gatherings look, but rather how they feel. We create spaces where raw vulnerability and radical honesty are the pillars. Meeting each other with open arms and hearts, standing far away from judgmental and disrespectful attitudes.
The community weaver and woman behind Rising Rooted.
Hello sister, my name is Elena Pirondini and I’m the heart behind this community. I founded Rising Rooted with the vision to create a safe container for women to remember our essence, exploring life together, redefining womanhood while connecting to our bodies and Mother Earth. Helping women to reclaim their power through the unconditional support that a sisterhood brings.
My work as mentor and space holder is rooted in my experience through Rising Rooted and my work as brand strategist for female entrepreneurs. I’m an intuitive, grounded facilitator, weaver of worlds, with a big vision: helping women to step into their full power so they can change our world for the better.
The TerraLuna Sisterhood was holding my hand while I was riding the rollercoaster of life. Whatever I asked for, I always got an answer and felt heard, held and seen by the sisters. Elena’s approach is uniquely dual-sided, which perfectly catered to my needs. On one hand, her loving and supportive presence offered a sense of calm and safety, allowing me to openly explore areas of my life where I felt disconnected and unsupported. On the other hand, she didn’t just listen; she challenged me to look beyond the surface, empowering me to reclaim my inner strength.
Every circle showed me that we are all going through a lot of same stories or feelings. We are all sisters and it’s so beautiful to support each other with a smile, with a homemade meal, if someone is stressed, or with a walk and some silence together. I wish the world more places like this, to grow a new type of community and respect for each other, not only women. Thank you Elena, from the deepest of my heart for creating such a treasure!
I love the essence, offerings and community of women Elena has created with rising rooted. She is such an inspiring, kind and talented woman, space holder and community weaver. Her big heart and compassion for all beings shines through in everything she does. She makes you feel comfortable, seen and heard which feels very nurturing and empowering to open up and share. These intimate women’s gatherings around the new moon have become my monthly anchor to ground, connect and grow. If you haven’t joined one yet, I highly recommend it.
