About us
Who We Are
Healing is at the heart of everything we do
At Ancient Roots, our mission and purpose are to provide the highest level of quality services that support others on their journey of healing and self-discovery. Driving this mission is our desire to cultivate a more inclusive and integrated community with vulnerability and transparency as our guiding principles.
We view this life as a sacred ritual of learning and healing, one in which every single person is a unique flowering of spirit as it dances with the material world. We recognize our interconnectedness with all living beings and strive to represent that in all of our work.
Ancient Roots is a culmination of years of inner work, healing, integration, and embodied practice. This is just the beginning of this project, and we are led by a vision to create communal spaces of healing and connection, offering a healthier culture and way of being to the next generations. We are excited to share with you and look forward to meeting you soon!
Why Choose Us?
Embodied Wisdom for Healing
The very fundamental aspect of our work is embodiment. We will not share any practice or teaching unless we have integrated and embodied the wisdom and understanding from it ourselves. All our offerings are teachings and practices that we have applied and used in our own journey to restore harmony and vitality in the body and unlock the various layers of trauma that hold us in rigid ways of being.
In every session or experience offered, our aim is to create a safe container for you to explore deeper aspects of yourself in order to heal and restore your body’s natural vitality. Whether through massage, constellations, or any other offering, our guiding value is to honour your unique process however it unfolds.
We respect the trust you put in us by continually developing our practice and understanding of the offerings we share. Each of us is committed to a path of healing ourselves, and we share this work with a deep reverence for life and all who come through our doors.
Our Story
William and Ana Colwill are the founders of Ancient Roots. They met while both were traveling in Mexico, deeply immersed on a spiritual and healing path, they came together sharing a deep love and reverence for life. From the beginning of their relationship, the foundation has always been transparency and trust.
Through many challenging experiences they faced together, they were brought into a deeper union and commitment to healing and sharing their lives with one another. Each with their own unique set of skills and wisdom, and knowing that they wanted to support others on similar paths, Ancient Roots was born.
The intention is and will always be to serve others so that they may discover the many gifts waiting for them as they learn to heal and trust in life once again.
This project was created from the fires of each of their unique transformation. Steeped in deep shadow work, William and Ana have a depth of understanding and wisdom which is rare in these times. Their work is a gift to humanity and and Ancient Roots is the bridge from which they share their gifts out to the world.
