Description
Body Wisdom Rising explores what it means to awaken through the body - to reclaim our power, heal inherited wounds, and remember the ancestral wisdom that lives within us.
We’re living through a time of profound change — a collective awakening that’s asking us to slow down, feel deeply, and remember who we are beneath the noise.
I’m Alyssa Stefanson, Somatic and Ancestral Healing Guide, and host of Body Wisdom Rising.
This is a space where spirituality, somatic healing, and ancestral remembrance meet. Each episode explores how we can return to the body as teacher, the earth as guide, and our lineage as medicine. Through conversations with experts and storytellers, we bridge science, ceremony, and soul to support collective healing and embodied awakening.
We don’t shy away from the conversations most avoid — trauma, addiction, disconnection, and the systems that keep us unwell. But we also explore what’s possible when we root back into our bodies, honour the land, and live from a place of integrity and aliveness.
You’ll hear deep, meaningful dialogue about somatic healing, nervous system regulation, ancestral reconnection, and holistic wellness — alongside earth-honouring practices, rituals, and autonomous ways of being that support personal and collective liberation.
If you’re here for real conversations, practical tools, and embodied wisdom that bridges science and spirit — you’re in the right place.
This is Body Wisdom Rising — where remembering becomes medicine.

We explore how somatic practices teach your body new safety, how lineage work dissolves invisible contracts to stay small, and how community provides the co‑regulation that turns...
The ground just shifted beneath our feet, and for many of us 2025 made sure we felt it. We break down why the Snake Year felt like a ruthless audit—identity shedding, relationship endings, and long-buried lineage patterns rising—and how that clearing sets the stage for a rare ignition in 2026. With the Fire Horse energy arriving alongside an eclipse and the Saturn–Neptune conjunction at zero Aries, we explore what “make the vision real” looks like in practice: less spiritual theory, more embo...
The year didn’t just test our limits—it stripped what no longer fit. Alyssa unpacks why 2025 felt like a relentless shedding and how those contractions signal a larger collective turn toward embodied, heart-led living. Through a raw story of collapse and awakening—from addiction’s edge to a great-horned owl that wouldn’t look away—we explore how synchronicities speak, why the body must lead, and what it takes to turn a spiritual opening into a grounded life.
