Publisher's Summary

A guide for connecting with the earth, your ancestors, and your communities as you come home to your whole self.

Despite our best efforts, our modern world leaves so many of us feeling isolated, unworthy, and alone. We’re unrooted from the land, untethered from our lineages, disconnected from our communities, and separated from our deepest sense of self.

In Root and Ritual, Becca Piastrelli offers a pathway back to connection and wholeness through rituals, recipes, and ancestral wisdom. “Though we live in a radically different-looking world, the needs of our bodies and spirits are the same as the ancestors we came from.”

Divided into four parts - Land, Lineage, Community, and Self - this guide takes you on a journey for engaging more deeply with your life:

  • Part one introduces practices for reconnecting with the land, including seasonal recipes, crafting with plants, and tending your home
  • In part two, you’ll learn to reclaim the gifts of your lineage as you understand past harms and explore the traditional folklore, foods, and arts of those who came before
  • Part three centers around community, helping you cultivate sisterhood and celebrate meaningful rites of passage
  • In part four, you’ll return to yourself as you open your intuition, tune in to your body, and awaken the wild woman within

A rich and dynamic treasure chest of timeless teachings, Root and Ritual is a beautiful guide for knowing who you are - and that you belong here.

Critic Reviews

Root and Ritual is a brilliantly written book exploring the ancestral traditions that help women reconnect to their power, the land, and the important role they have held in cultures as spiritual leaders and healers. Becca Piastrelli helps women to reconnect to their birthright of rituals, healing knowledge, and instructions on how to survive challenging times. This is an important book for the times we live in.” (Sandra Ingerman, MA, author of Walking in Light and The Book of Ceremony)

“This book will find you grabbing a soft blanket and warm cup of tea and curling up on the couch as you follow Becca’s wise, loving voice into the deepest parts of yourself. Through land, lineage, community, and self, you might suddenly find yourself in an enchanted, lush land, the rhythmic call of her words unavoidably breathing life into the dreams of your heart. Beware! Only read this book if you are ready for your longing to take deeper root in your life. You just might find dirt under your fingernails; sticky concoctions brewing in Mason jars; smoke thickly matted into your hair; and eyes, ears, and whole body opening to something that you can feel but perhaps not see. In short, this book could make you deeply joyful to be alive.” (Elle Luna, artist, designer, and author of The Crossroads of Should and Must

“It’s so easy nowadays to feel disconnected from ourselves and each other. In Root and Ritual, Becca Piastrelli offers us a way to find connection in every area of our lives, from our natural environment to our relationships. The delightful illustrations and detailed instruction for every ritual and recipe make this treasure of a text accessible to all. And I am particularly moved by Ms. Piastrelli’s guidance in honoring different cultures while celebrating their traditions.” (Rebekah Borucki, mother, author, and publisher)

Absolutely loved this book

This book touched my heart and made it sing! Lots of ideas and inspiration are offered for those of us seeking guidance and faith to move forward on a journey to find our path in life. When it is time for change and you're unsure which way to go, listen to this wonderful little book which will guide you. I have listened to this book twice and I am still finding something new. It is both thought provoking and rings true to my soul. I also love listening to the author narrate the book as it comes from her heart and soul. Love, love this dear little book. It will be a keeper and I will listen to it over and over again..
