11 am to 12:30-1:00 PM

Roots & Resonance Summer Series

Roots & Resonance workshops are a guided, immersive, co-created experience — drawing from Indigenous wisdom traditions to help you move out of the intellectual thinking mind into an expanded sense of connection: to self, to community, to body, and to the living world around you.
Each 90-minute session is semi-structured and ceremonial in nature. Facilitators hold a trauma-informed space with nervous system tending woven throughout, so that you can arrive exactly as you are. No prior experience needed. All are welcome here—regardless of age, gender, culture, background, disability, or identity. 

We open by grounding ourselves in Indigenous wisdom traditions — stories, teachings, and ways of knowing that have held communities across time and across cultures.

❋ 1. Storytelling & Cultural Teachings 

Movement, voice, breath, and the senses invite you out of your thinking mind and into your body. Incense offerings accompany us throughout.

❋ 2. Multi-Sensory Embodiment Practices
❋ 3. Reflective Journaling & Sharing

Space to turn inward, then come together in small or full group sharing — held with care and compassion.

We close with meaningful rituals you can carry into daily life — movement, song, altar or earth tending, gratitude practice — and group sharing to harvest and anchor what we've made together.

❋ 4. Closing Ritual & Integration

Facilitators

danielle Gonzales

Danielle Gonzales, LMFT is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and multicultural woman on her own journey of reconnecting with her indigenous Mesoamerican and Swedish roots. Her approach weaves trauma-informed care, attachment-based lens with somatic practice, deep ecology, earth-based indigenous wisdom, and ancestral reconnection. She creates space for women to tend their inner child, grieve in community, tend the wound of cultural separation in the western world, and reconnect to themselves and their inherent medicine for healing - through community connection, song, movement, rooting into nature/unseen world, culture reclamation, and trusting intuition and other ways of knowing.

Land acknowledgment

I would like to acknowledge that these workshops are taking place on the traditional land of the First People of Seattle, past and present. We honor with gratitude the land itself and the Coast Salish peoples, specifically the Duwamish, Suquamish, Stillaguamish, Muckleshoot, and Snoqualmie tribes, who have stewarded this region since time immemorial.

Action: We can stand in solidarity with First Peoples of this land by paying Real Rent. All funds go directly to Duwamish Tribal Services (DTS) to support the revival of Duwamish culture and the vitality of the Duwamish Tribe.

“We sacrificed our land to make the City of Seattle a beautiful reality. We are still waiting for our justice.”

​- Cecile Hansen, Chairwoman of Duwamish Tribe
