what is The Roots about?
Repairing the deepest roots of our dis-ease: disconnect from body, self, and your innate healing nature
Coming home to your body to reclaim your instinctual, intuitive, self-healing medicine and create greater calm, connection, and energy within your embodied experience
Learning to communicate with your powerful felt sense to transform stress and trauma into aliveness and expansion
Practicing the power of intention, heartfulness, and the realm of possibility as powerful healing allies.
You want to feel more connected to the wisdom of your body
Instead of living in low-level stress mode all the time, a bit on edge and overwhelm,
you want the experience of a full exhale—
Knowing how to shift yourself into calm. Knowing how to reenergize and awaken your body.
You’re a committed seeker of self-discover but sometimes you find yourself confused, questioning yourself and your abilities, not feeling fully grounded in the direction of your self-healing path.
You’re aware of some patterns that may be causing distress—
holding your breath, clenching your muscles,
even sabotaging your desires by doing the exact opposite of what you wanted to do!
You’re hoping for greater understanding of your habits,
to feel more free; to no longer be held back by anxiety, criticism, or confusion
You want to live less in your head, more in your BODY and your HEART.
You know these are probably deeply-rooted patterns -
in your nervous system and in a culture prioritizing productivity, competition, and profits at the expense of being, becoming, and connecting. You know that going against the grain will require some grit and commitment.
You’ve definitely had glimpses of a lighter, freer, more embodied self, so you KNOW it’s possible for you.
You’re ready to shift. To reclaim a feeling of “home” in your body and reside there more often. To reconnect to your own embodied wisdom through sensation, breath, nourishment, movement, and community.
You’re curious to explore the learned patterns of dis-ease woven into your body. And how to begin unraveling them
(you understand it’s counter-cultural to embark into this exploration, and you’re ready to be so bold)
You feel it’s time to embody a new paradigm of BEING in your body—more expression, more power, more connection, more rest, more YES.

What Students are saying…
“Are you a recovering perfectionist? Me too. I’ve spent several years trying to rewire my Type-A tendencies. Although I had come a long way, I was still having too many moments where I felt stuck in my old stress patterns. I knew I needed more support around the “how” of this unlearning. When I heard Dr. Savannah was starting The Roots, I immediately knew this was the next step. In this program, I truly realized that the key to the “how” is understanding ourselves better, getting clear on what sends us spinning out as well as what can bring us back in.
Dr. Savannah is gifted at helping people through this exploration, no matter where they are in their journey. Her heartfelt teachings as well as her ability to create a safe space allowed us all to awaken to new parts of ourselves (and learn from each other). I believe that tending to our mental/emotional health is one of the most powerful things we can do for our physical health.
As a nutritionist specializing in gut health, I consistently find that a major contributor to ongoing symptoms is stress. The gut-brain axis is extremely real! I am so pleased to now recommend Dr. Savannah and The Roots to my clients (and friends!) as a way to go deeper into the mind-body aspect of their healing. You’ll walk away with a greater sense of self and PRACTICAL tools that you can use on a daily basis. Everyone needs this!

“I am so glad that I joined The Roots! I have struggled with anxiety for years and I can genuinely say I am in a much better place after these 10 weeks. It was incredibly helpful to learn about the nervous system, how it works, and techniques for returning to the parasympathetic state. Not only do I now have the tools to deal with anxiety and panic, but my baseline is now more grounded and calm. I also loved connecting with the other participants and it was a very open and nonjudgmental space.”

“The ROOTS has honestly changed my life. This course has helped me SEE. See myself with self-compassion after understanding my evolutionary mismatch. See the world as good, beautiful, and ready for my bare feet to touch the vibrations of the earth. Vibrations, coherence, self-compassion, mediation, breath work, and understanding our nervous system are priceless. Dr. Savannah is giving people access to the life they've always wanted. Yes, it takes time, consistency, and practice to re-wiring our brains towards joy, but this class offers tools, education, practice, friendship, and a safe place to explore The ROOTS of our DIS-EASE. This class, experience, went above and beyond my expectations. I'm a better me, friend, son, husband, father, and human because of this experience. Forever grateful to my fellow ROOTS/new besties and for Dr. Savannah whose approach is inclusive, compassionate, knowledgeable, and accessible to all who want to live a freer life! Feeling all the feels after such a wonderful 10-weeks! Thank you!”
