Work with Maíra Irigaray
ROOTED RETURN™
Systemic, Somatic & Ancestral Mentorship and Sacred Work
Guided presence for women navigating transition, responsibility, and inner reorientation.
This Is Not About Fixing Yourself
Working with Maíra is not about becoming someone else, performing healing, or pushing toward transformation. It is about returning — to your body, to your inner timing, and to the deeper order that supports your life.
This work creates the conditions for clarity, grounding, and truthful movement to emerge without force or urgency. It is for women who sense that more effort is not the answer — and that listening differently is required.
This is slow, attentive, relational work. It honors the intelligence of the nervous system, the body, and the ancestral field.
The Method: ROOTED RETURN™
ROOTED RETURN™ is a systemic, somatic, and ancestral approach developed through years of lived practice, fieldwork, and relational experience.
It draws from:
-
Nervous system awareness
-
Embodiment and presence
-
Systemic and ancestral listening
-
Long-term, ethical relationship with land and people
This work does not collapse into therapy, coaching, or spiritual performance.
This work is not:
-
Therapy or clinical treatment
-
Coaching aimed at productivity or optimization
-
Self-help frameworks or motivational systems
-
Spiritual bypass or altered-state chasing
This work is:
-
Grounded in the body and nervous system
-
Oriented toward repair, integration, and discernment
-
Paced, ethical, and relational
-
Rooted in respect for personal history, lineage, and context
ROOTED RETURN™ does not promise transformation. It supports return — to steadiness, discernment, and inner authority.
Maíra’s Role in this work
I have spent over sixteen years walking alongside people and Indigenous communities through moments of change — not as an expert above them, but as someone trained to listen, stay, and pace what unfolds.
Alongside my academic background and long-term fieldwork in the Amazon, I have accompanied women through:
-
Identity and leadership transitions
-
Relational ruptures
-
Spiritual integration
-
Periods where certainty falls away
What shaped my work most was not technique, but responsibility: learning when to slow down, when not to intervene, and when presence itself is the work.
I do not manufacture intensity or impose insight.
I respond to what the body, the moment, and the relational field are asking for — sometimes through challenge, sometimes through steady holding.
That is what ROOTED RETURN™ is built on.
How the Work Unfolds
While each collaboration is unique, Maíra’s work within ROOTED RETURN™ often moves through three intertwined dimensions:
Nothing is forced. Depth emerges when the system is ready.
1:1 Mentorship within ROOTED RETURN™
Ongoing, Attentive Support for Women in Positions of Responsibility
This offering is for women who hold leadership, caregiving, or creative roles — and who need steady, grounded accompaniment rather than advice or performance-based coaching.
The work unfolds through ongoing sessions shaped by your life context, inner rhythm, and capacity. It is especially supportive if you are:
-
Navigating a significant life or identity transition
-
Integrating intense experiences or realizations
-
Outwardly competent but inwardly disconnected
-
Seeking clarity without pressure to “figure it out”
Rather than outcomes, the work supports orientation — helping you listen more clearly, respond more honestly, and move from a place of internal steadiness.
Commissioned Ceremonies & Gatherings
Private, Context-Sensitive Ritual Work
Within ROOTED RETURN™, Maíra also facilitates commissioned ceremonies and sacred gatherings for individuals, families, or organizations seeking a private, carefully held experience. These are not performances or mass rituals. They are shaped slowly, in conversation, with attention to context, intention, and ethical limits. Examples include:
All ceremonies are paced. Safety and consent come before depth.
Speaking & Facilitation
I am available for speaking and facilitation where depth, ethics, and embodiment are valued, including:
-
Retreats and private gatherings
-
Cultural and educational spaces
-
Organizations and institutions
My work weaves ecology, ancestral awareness, embodiment, and lived experience — without spectacle or simplification.
How to Begin
An Invitation, Not an Enrollment
I do not offer instant booking or standardized packages. All collaborations begin with a conversation to sense alignment, timing, and appropriateness. If it feels aligned to inquire further, practical details — including investment ranges — are shared during the application process, so clarity and consent are held on both sides. Participation is relational, not transactional.
You don’t need more answers.
You need the right conditions to listen.
