Grief Support Circle: Honoring Love + Loss
Sunday, November 30th
4–6 PM
From the Roots Up Healing Studio, Los Osos
💛 Donation-based — all types of grief are welcome

As we move into the quiet of winter, we’re coming together to hold space for something that touches us all — grief.

Join me, Krista Rooney, and my dear friend Jessica French, a fellow death doula and founder of Metamorphosis – Death Care and Celebration of Life Services, for a gentle evening of sharing, reflection, and healing.

This isn’t about fixing or rushing our grief — it’s about honoring it, softening into it, and remembering that grief is love that has nowhere else to go.

Come as you are. You’re not alone in this — we’ll walk through it together, one breath, one story, one heart at a time. 🕯️

Please DM or to reserve your spot

Honoring Our Ancestors on Día de los Mu***os

Yesterday we gathered in Sister Circle to honor Día de los Mu***os, creating a beautiful community ofrenda together. It was filled with flowers, candles, and photos of the ones who came before us. The space felt alive with their presence. It was like they were right there celebrating with us.

I brought my buffalo hide — one my grandma hunted and my grandpa tanned — and laid it beneath the altar. It felt like the perfect way to bring my ancestors into our sacred space and offering. Their strength, skill, and spirit carried through that hide, grounding us in the lineage of all who came before.

Later that night, I built a smaller family ofrenda at home. We added pieces of our lineage: writings, a seashell, a crystal, a photo. Each item carrying a memory, a heartbeat, a reminder that they are never truly gone. 🕯️

An ofrenda is more than just an altar. It’s a living bridge between worlds. It’s how we welcome our ancestors back home for a visit, how we honor their stories and keep their spirit alive through love and remembrance.

We don’t just inherit their trauma… we inherit their healing, resilience, and strength too.

May we keep telling their stories.
May we live in a way that makes them proud.
May their light continue to guide us forward.
May we not only do this on Dia de Los Mu***os but everyday. 🙏

🎃✨ Halloween vs. Samhain - what’s the difference?! 👻🔥

So here’s the thing…Halloween and Samhain happen at the same time, but they’re not quite the same.

Halloween (Oct 31st) is the modern day, candy filled, costume wearing, pumpkin carving version of something way more ancient. It’s fun, playful, and totally okay to go as anything you have ever wanted to be. It’s the one night the veil gets thin and we get to dance with mystery.

Samhain (pronounced Sow-in or Sah-win) is the ancient Celtic festival that Halloween actually grew from. It marks the end of the harvest season and the beginning of the dark half of the year. It’s a sacred turning point when the veil between worlds is thinnest.

Spiritually, it’s a time for:
🍂 Honoring our ancestors and loved ones who’ve passed
🔥 Releasing what no longer serves us as the seasons shift
🌕 Deep reflection, gratitude, and stillness before the winter
🌿 Lighting candles or fires to guide spirits home and keep our inner flame alive

So while Halloween might be for ghost stories and costumes…
Samhain is for ceremony, remembrance, and magic.

Both are powerful in their own way — one brings joy + play, the other brings depth + connection. Together, they remind us that life and death are part of the same sacred spiral. 🌀

How are you celebrating tonight? Are you dancing with the spirits, or communing with them? 😉🖤

You know me…I’ll be doing a little of both! 🙌

Don’t forget to join us on Sunday for Dia de Los Mu***os where we will be honoring our ancestors. Sister Circle is 9-11am at my studio 2055 9th St Los Osos

“A healer is born in the shadows to show others the path to the light.”

This quote carries so much truth for those of us on the medicine path.

It means:
You don’t become a healer by bypassing the hard stuff.
You become a healer because you’ve faced it.
You’ve walked through your own grief, fear, trauma, or darkness… and you found light again.
Not perfectly. Not always easily.
But enough to know the way back.

There’s no training, class, workshop, or book that can take you around the mud and muck to the place of healing. You MUST walk *through* it. You have to look at it, be with it, sit in it, immersed in the truth of what brought you there and what is needed to get you out.

Healers aren’t born in the spotlight.
We’re shaped in these shadows and murky places.
In the moments no one saw, when we kept choosing to rise.

In the tears, the ego deaths, the initiations.

And when you’ve walked that deep and winding path, you carry a map in your bones.

So when someone else is lost, you don’t flinch.
You sit beside them and you say: “I know this place. I’ve been here too. You’re not alone.”

That’s the medicine.
That’s the return.
That’s the path of the wounded healer. 🙏

🏷️ Tag someone who has helped you in your path to healing.

💌 DM if you would like support on your walk through the muck and into the Light. ✨

NOVEMBER Sister Circle: Honoring Our Ancestors

Sunday, November 2nd | 9:00–11:00 AM | 2055 9TH ST LOS OSOS

Join us for a sacred Sister Circle on Día de los Mu***os, a day devoted to remembering and honoring those who came before us. Together, we’ll create space to connect with our ancestral roots and our lineage of love, wisdom, and resilience that lives within us.

We’ll begin with a guided ancestral journey, inviting you to open your heart and listen to the messages and blessings your ancestors wish to share. Following this, we’ll gather around to create personal mini ofrendas which are small altars to honor your loved ones and lineage. These can be taken home to continue your remembrance practice.

Please bring meaningful items from home to include in your ofrenda — photos, flowers, candles, fabric, heirlooms, or anything that carries the spirit of those you wish to honor.

Día de los Mu***os reminds us that death is not an ending, but a continuation of connection. By remembering and celebrating our ancestors, we keep their stories alive and strengthen the roots that sustain us. This circle is a space for reflection, gratitude, and renewal. It’s where we honor the past as a way of nourishing the present.

All women and non-binary folks are welcome in this shared sacred space.

There’s a moment when you stop surviving and start remembering who you are.

Healing isn’t about fixing what’s broken. It’s about rising from the roots, reclaiming your power, and returning to wholeness.

Every scar, every tear, every fall… it’s all sacred medicine.

Keep rising. You’re becoming the version of you that your soul has always known was waiting.

My heart is so full after today! 💓

I got to spend time with a couple whose wedding I’m officiating in just a couple of weeks and it was honestly so special. I feel so honored and blessed to hold them and their love in this sacred way. Thank you and Ben for trusting me with leading you both in the most sacred of ceremonies. 🙏

Part of what I offer for every couple who books me to officiate their wedding is a pre-wedding healing session. It’s a beautiful, intimate experience that includes a guided journey, crystal healing, and vibroacoustic meditation to help you reset, relax, and reconnect before your big day. It’s one of my favorite things I get to do because it helps couples drop into love in such a deep and peaceful way.

This sweet couple shared these words after their session today:

“Exactly what I needed, exactly what WE needed. Thank you Krista Whitney Rooney with From the Roots Up Healing, our friend and spiritual healer / wedding officiant, for designing the perfect guided meditation for us this morning along with a vibroacoustic healing. 🦋 It was a stress reliever, reset and tune in…..an ultimate connector. Ben and I feel so aligned, in tune and at peace…..plus even more in love than before. You are incredible and we are so grateful for you.”

Moments like this remind me why I love this work so much. I am an ordained minister and can legally marry couples, but for me it’s so much more than that. It’s about helping people enter their sacred union feeling grounded, calm, and deeply connected.

If you’re getting married and want to infuse your ceremony with intention, love, and a little magic, I’d be honored to hold that space for you.
