Starshine Roots

Healing trauma through sound, history & the sacred feminine | vegan | synth lover | sound therapist | exploring ancient wisdom & reconnecting with the womb

[Starshine Roots @StarshineRoots]

A practitioner handed me 'The Power of Now' when I was in agony.

They said my chronic pain was emotional suffering I was keeping alive, and that if I was present enough, it would dissolve.

I know that territory. It is my work. And the irony made me sick.

[Starshine Roots @StarshineRoots]

There was no day.

That is the particular grief of a body with chronic illness. It went in a thousand small surrenders.

You can't see it, but it hurts me. No woman should mark her crossing alone.

Aren't you angry?

Four decades of anger locked somewhere I couldn't reach. Learning to feel it without guilt or shame.

Anger turned out to be information I'd been living without.

You didn't write this spell.

I should be over this. I could have done more.
Those words are rarely ours alone. Mother to daughter. We inherit the spell.

This summer was my winter.

I finished Celtic shamanic practitioner training. I laid down what was never mine. It lifted.

I am making a space for women to do the same, together. Door opens when it is ready.

There's a moment I witness in every drum circle.

A woman arrives braced. Hand meets the drum, rhythm rises into her bones, and something lets go.

Oldest medicine there is: fire, rhythm, women gathered.

That book was written by a man who has never had his body used against him.

Transcendence is an easier sell when presence was never dangerous.

Six years ago I could not wash or dress myself. I was 42.

What got me out was going into it. The body. The grief. The rage. The ancestral work. The wee parts that hadn't caught up.

I did not transcend. I descended. Healing spirals. It is not a victory march.

Well, here's something you don't see every day - me on camera! 😅

Turns out, my first venture into video accidentally channeled my inner TEDX speaker (hello, past life as a senior manager). But beneath that polished exterior? Just me, stepping way out of my comfort zone to share something close to my heart.

In this reel, I open up about my unexpected path from chronic pain to healing, and maybe it'll resonate with some of you.

🎧 How sound healing and somatic practices changed everything

🧜‍♀️ The Celtic Selkie legend that became my unexpected guide

#Drumming on this beach, I feel it in my bones - the deep connection to all that is. The #rhythm pulses through me, blurring the lines between self and the wild world around me. In this space of sonic alchemy, I'm reminded that we're all part of something greater. #soundhealing

Sharing my #endometriosis journey to connect with fellow #endowarriors. Through #soundtherapy, #yonisteaming & trusting my intuition. I'm reclaiming my #sacredfeminine. Let's support each other on our own paths to #healing. More on my blog. https://t.co/ZbXTmKaaHp #womenshealth

[Starshine Roots @StarshineRoots]

This week I had my 1st #yonisteam at 45. As a sound therapist, I know #healing is a lifelong journey. In our society, yonis usually receive only sexual & medical touch. Steaming released shame & brought joy. #healingjourney #wombhealing #womenshealth #vulnerability #gifttoself

[Starshine Roots @StarshineRoots]

Out in the woods, lost in the rhythm, drumming with my heart. The blackbirds, the breeze, the creaking branches - we're all part of this jam. Nature's my greatest inspiration. This is where my healing rhythms are born. #shamanicdrumming #soundhealing #naturetherapy #mydrumsong

[Starshine Roots @StarshineRoots]

Discovered my great-great-aunt died from septicemia with #endometriosis in 1909, a condition I have too. Breaking the cycle of shame in #womenshealth is crucial. As a #soundtherapist, I've seen the power of acknowledging #ancestraltrauma. #chronicpain #pelvicpain #youarenotalone
