Awaken Your Roots

A pacha philosopher's guide to recover agency and belonging through the medicine of nature, cultural connection, and ancestral wisdom

Have you felt disconnected from your family story and traditions, lost for a sense of home and belonging? While circumstance may have forced this detachment, a new path is yours to forge, one that leads you back to what is rightfully yours.

Reclaim your agency and purpose-especially from cultural forces that have caused you to feel deficient, inadequate, and invisible. Lorena knows this path, as her personal wounds related to war, financial hardship, and intergenerational trauma have become portals through which she reconnected to her own medicine. Here, she offers the key to personal and collective healing, helping readers move through anxiety and shame, rediscover their own inner wisdom, and access the tools to interweave their dreams with their deep roots.

Reconciling with our ancestors' traditions and weaving ourselves back into our history is a therapeutic endeavor that deserves to be embarked upon with respect and authenticity. "Ancestral knowledge, at its core," says Lorena, "has communal threads linked to Nature. All of us can come back to these basic roots." With a focus on ancestral wisdom and relationship with nature, Lorena provides an integrated experience for facing the jaguar-a powerful symbol of courage and purpose-through mirroring and embodiment practices. By cultivating personal medicine and sharing it with others, we can all live the life we deserve.
