From Pain to Purpose

I’m McKenna Roice, founder of Homegrown Healing—a sacred space devoted to reconnecting with the body’s innate healing intelligence through breathwork, somatic practices, and Kundalini activations.

This path found me through profound grief. In 2021, my world was forever altered when my brother Dylan died by suicide after years of battling severe depression. His passing cracked me open. I spiraled into numbness and exhaustion, stuck in a body holding unprocessed trauma and emotions I didn’t yet know how to feel.

Mainstream healthcare offered little more than numbing and suppression—and I knew there had to be more. In my search for meaning and healing, I discovered energy work, nervous system regulation, and the deep intelligence of the breath. Kundalini activation, in particular, became a turning point. It woke something ancient within me—a life force I didn’t know I’d buried. Through this work, I began to unravel the layers of trauma, regulate my system, and access the deep peace, clarity, and vitality I had forgotten were possible.

There isn’t a day I don’t wish I could’ve shared these practices with my brother. That longing fuels my mission: to guide others home to themselves, to remind them they are not broken—and that healing is possible, no matter how disconnected or lost they may feel.

At Homegrown Healing, I offer a grounded yet spiritual space for individuals ready to feel, release, and awaken. This isn’t a quick fix—it’s a reclamation. A journey of peeling back layers, restoring coherence between mind, body, and spirit, and remembering the soul’s wholeness.

If you’re feeling the call to return to yourself, to move through the pain and into purpose—this work is for you. And I’m honored to walk beside you.
