The work with Larisa is always deep, layered and full of integrity.

I am weaving her practices into my daily life now out of necessity as much as anything else. I have had direct personal experiences of working with my guides to help clear issues out of my auric field/my space before but I didn't really take my own approach seriously. The seriousness with which Larisa takes her work really made me stand up and take notice and commit to this practice more seriously and with an added benefit of slowing my own way of working down. Again, something I have needed to do but not really felt willing or ready up until now.

Larisa is a clear, soothing presence and ally to have on your side teaching and sharing her tools with us. If you have poor boundaries or are aware that you are an empath or a hyper-sensitive person then this work may well be just what you are looking for. Heartily recommended.

"So far, I've journeyed through two Ambling Sessions with Larisa. I found these offerings to be very beneficial during a particular phase of my ancestral lineage repair work, along with additional forgiveness-and-releasing/Shadow Work themes in my personal journey. Larisa's ability to hold embodied, sacred, safe space, along with 'hearing the Earth' in the background of her environment, was an extremely meaningful process for me. I felt heard, held and seen in our ambling containers, through which I was able to witness the ancestralization of one of my family lineages; I was able to finally feel safe enough to cultivate a relationship with my well ancestors, a relationship that I initially felt wasn't possible in this lifetime.

As I was already in a formal structure of learning and ritual, the Ambling Sessions were an ideal choice for auxiliary support--it was as if Larisa were my 'ancestral coach,' cheering me on, inviting me at any moment to honor my intuition to cry, laugh, sit with ... allow. I've also had a recent opportunity to join one of her online, ritual offerings (Spring Equinox), which was a beautiful opportunity to be in a virtual, Earth-and-ancestral honoring community. I am truly grateful for my work with Larisa, thus far!"

As a practitioner who holds space for other people, and as a sensitive and emotional person myself, I feel I can always use more sturdy and dependable boundaries.

As a community song leader, and as a person who has at times been overly intellectual and dissociative as a way to handle old traumas, I am keenly interested in embodiment.

I knew that Larisa would have a unique and tender way of putting these topics together with Ancestral support that I wanted to experience. I was right, and the techniques I learned and support I cultivated in this class have become more or less daily companions for me, as well as go-to processes I use with clients.

What I didn’t know was how powerful Larisa’s ability is in tending a non-local container. I felt an astonishing amount of support while I was in her online class, and my visions and journeys under her guidance were utterly palpable and unforgettable.

You embody what you're teaching so thoroughly that the time spent with you is incredibly potent. You're also extremely compassionate and encouraging. No matter what a participant was experiencing, you created space for that experience and helped the person be more compassionate with themselves. Made the class overall feel like a safe, accepting space with is important when the material puts me in a vulnerable place.

Love working with you and I love your work. Amazing how radical addressing my struggles with compassion, kindness, and witnessing is. How something as simple as witnessing what's going on in my body opens a door to so much healing. Thank you.

I have in the past few years become more aware of ancestral work and discovering my own ancestral issues.

I have been searching for peace for half a lifetime, Larisa's story so resonates with me, and I really get that all of what has gone before is too much for little incarnate me! I was told previously that I could give back to the ancestors what was there's but I didn't know how to do that and how to recognise what was theirs, and had a lot of confusion around this; I am clearer now.

I so appreciated Larisa's clarity and ease of explanation of some difficult stuff, her presence (even over the internet) and apparent calm and holding, her thorough grasp of this subject, and her generosity in sharing her knowledge, experience and resources.

I learned a lot about myself - what I was doing well, what I was not, how I could improve, mostly around being in my body. Boundaries has been an issue for me for years and many of my friends and clients. Working with the ancestors in this way is new for me and so helpful. The class was short enough to not get too behind with interesting, short lessons to make participation easeful.

Larisa has a beautiful calm energy. This energy radiates from her website, her emails, her presence in the class.

I was very impressed with how clear everything was in the course. The communication, the timings, next steps, the tasks. The way Larisa created the space and held it was amazing.

Connecting with the ancestors, especially the first time I experienced the well and not so well ones, was a powerful experience.

And then I think it was the last day we met, when we asked for some guidance about boundaries, the guidance was very clear and unexpected!

I understood that my main issue with boundaries is that I never was modeled them as I should've been and I grieved that a lot. Also, I allowed myself to feel at ease with a male ancestral presence, something that at the beginning of the course sounded ultra scary. I also had the experience of calling my power back to me; it felt really.... real (haha).

I loved the course. The delivery was amazing, I loved the accountability of the live calls, it really made a difference in the effort I put into actually going through the exercises (vs just signing up and trying to find a time "later" aka never).

I don't know what I'd change about the course. I really think it was one of the best I've taken. It was simple, to the point, and useful.

I'm really thankful I got to participate in this, thank you so much for everything! You are one of the best facilitators out there, you really are!

The healing has begun. I see the common thread to my experiences as a clear connection with my well ancestors and embodiment work. I started out a questionnaire with “I didn’t know I had no boundaries. Now I do and I am feeling more relaxed. I know how to soothe and comfort the tears the begin to grow in my throat. I feel safer. When I don’t feel safe,I can imagine a protective membrane around my body. This gives me time to turn away from the ‘overwhelm’ before I got sucked in and sit in a sense of introspection and next moves. Very practical."

Thank you, this class was monumental. I felt nurtured. The meditations and audio lessons in between class time were genius. They helped me feel connected to the class and offered me a way to move into the next step.

I am so grateful to have found such a wise, nurturing and intuitive guide in Larisa to help me move to a different level with my emotional issues. She gives such a richness and depth so that in addition to understanding what I want to change, I feel like I now have tools to actually embody those changes and to put me on a path towards wholeness.

Thank you so much for today.  Wow!  It was very powerful for me.

The whole situation was amazing!! When I signed up for this virtual ritual I did not know how I’d do it as I am living with my friends. Everyone was out that day and even the flower petals were provided from their garden. So beautiful!

Water Spirit is SO special for me and that really came through during this ritual.  Balance and buoyant support.  I felt drawn to salt rather than honey, and I knew not why.  In ritual I understood that Salt Water supported my life when there were no adults there to see me through as a child.  Such beauty!  And salt provided my sweetness.

My dear friend in Japan died a few days ago.  There were prayers on flower petals for her journey too.  So much richness.

I could go on and on, instead I will say thank you.

Great love.

Thanks for witnessing Larisa,

For folks who may not have access to an in-person ritual this (virtual ritual) is a very good option. I appreciate Larisa's positive regard for all and her ability to have language at her finger tips to keep a wider perspective open. The timber of her voice is calming, soothing, and encouraging.

Additionally, thanks to my ongoing work with Larisa I now know there is hope. My ancestors are real and very important in my life. Further, I understand that it is a process to break down the barriers in my body from so many generations of ignoring them. Larisa always has a next step and I so appreciate her diligence, loveliness, and ingenuity.

You offer an incredible safe space. I actually know no other person who does this in this deep way. I feel welcomed with all I am without any pressure from your side. This means a lot. You are fantastic. Much love to you x

From D A R K N E S S T O L I G H T -- this past year was rough and tumble filled with terrifying and challenging situations. At the time I couldn’t imagine there was anything good about this difficult time. But now I see...

The beauty in this was that it sent me running into the arms of angelic ancestral healing guide, Larisa Noonan. I had begun ancestral healing work with Daniel Foor, but I was gripped by fear of other dimensions in light of the above and needed serious help going back “in”.

And so with my hand interlaced tightly in Larisa’s, my journey continued. She ushered me through fear and guided me straight to my own power to establish a clear protective energetic ring. And then Larisa and I returned to finding my ancestral guides, who arrived with softness, support and reassurance of my path along with the healing of my blood lines.

I’ve come to intuit flower and herb medicines and light healing treatments. And I’ve come to know ancient guides, one of which is kindly showing me ocean and land healing modalities. I feel an expansiveness that has me full of joyful purpose amidst the sheer abundance of light bestowed me.

“This idea of consciously creating boundaries has been one of the most useful things I’ve worked on. It’s been profoundly helpful in being a parent to three really crazy boys. Sometimes recognizing that trying to tease out what’s what in a dynamic with multiple kids is confusing as in ‘what just happened? What is the boundary here?’ I'm recognizing that I have to step in as the dad and create the boundary and stick to it and draw a really firm set of boundaries. It’s been honestly remarkable for me to step into that foreign skillset. It’s been awesome. So I’m really grateful for that and I’m starting to see how it translates more into the ancestral work that we are doing as well.”

Larisa created a safe space for me to dive into the relationship with my ancestors. She laid the foundation by offering a solid understanding to engage in this relationship and she embodied the simpleness and the truth of this natural communion so wonderfully.

I'm very grateful that our paths have crossed. What for me personally was very important is that we did not just work in the spiritual realm we started and even in between the exercises we anchored in the body. That's what makes it a real human experience.

If you look for a safe, real and tangible approach to transform your past into a brighter future I absolutely recommend working with Larisa!

You're a very powerful healer Larisa. Thank you for creating such a strong, loving container for me to work in. It's amazing how much better I feel being able to explore these issues with you. I didn't expect to receive so many good things so quickly. I feel much safer AND I feel more courage.

Previously I saw spiritual practice as time spent away from what I wanted to do. Now I understand I get better results when I'm coming from a place that is connected to Spirit and to my Ancestors.

I move through the world with an open heart, with a lot more love. I find it really easy to talk to people now because that's the place I'm coming from. I just seem to be in a place of appreciation all the time. Even when others are doing things that aren't right for me - I can still appreciate that it is right for them and this feels really good.

Larisa's gifts, I feel, are precisely the salve needed in this culture at this time. She holds a great deal of power with such gentleness. She is very grounded, rooted, present. She works with a great deal of compassion and empathy. A sweetness comes through her work, which is so soothing.

Larisa is very connected spiritually and also is able to translate that through in very practical ways. She is able to hold space in sessions, making way for a person's gifts to flourish. She's an extraordinary listener. I highly recommend Larisa. Working with Larisa brings about growth, healing, an increase of self love. Her medicine, I believe, is made of love.

Your healing sessions are unique.

Primarily, I appreciate your truly holistic approach. The word “holistic” is thrown around a lot in the healing profession, but your work truly embodies it in the sense that you look at the whole picture, on each level: physical, emotional, mental, spiritual.

When you check in with me at the beginning of each session, I feel that you are deeply listening to what is up for me on each of those levels, and that you apply what you have heard directly to the work you do with me during the session.

I also appreciate your kind, compassionate nature. And, you have a breadth of knowledge in spiritual matters as well as physical that I admire.

After a session I feel calm, centered, and reconnected to my body.

The suggestions you offer for “homework” or things to do between sessions are always helpful and practical.

Since we have been working together — a year and a half now — I have come to some pivotal insights about my connection to my body and Spirit that have helped me to move through significant blocks in my own healing and issues with chronic pain.

When I first worked with Larisa I was clouded with confusion. I was not sure what to expect, as I had never worked with a method like this before, and the results were incredibly useful. The process was fun, powerful, and unique.

I received important guidance and experienced immediate shifts in my life and work and highly recommend Larisa’s powerful work to women looking for clarity in any area of life.

What makes her different than others is that she has a deep presence that is very comforting. I can feel that she is listening deeply. When I am around her, I don't feel the need to create small talk, I know I can simply speak my truth in that moment and it will be met. Plus, I really trust that she is tuned into nature and Spirit in a deep way and that is comforting as well.

I was blown away at the depth of healing that I experienced in the water ritual.

There is a fullness and naturalness to the experience that felt like how we are meant to heal–in nature, in a group, in connection with Spirit.

The biggest part for me understanding and experiencing myself as deeply, fully, inseparably, obviously connected and part of a larger whole. This brought a lot of relief from the isolated experience of my own pain.

That ritual launched me on a 6-month journey to reclaiming many lost pieces of myself. It was truly powerful.

Larisa has a special skill and talent for teaching. She leads in a way that allows her students to contemplate their own process without feeling rushed or caught in someone else’s agenda.

She holds space for her students to explore all that is there for them, offering permission with her presence, having the wisdom to know that nothing more is needed.

Owl Eyes recently came to my rescue. I may have mentioned that changes in management have made my job increasingly stressful and unrewarding. I was stuck with the notion that I had to stick it out till the end. Somehow it occurred to me to expand my vision (one of the problems with stress is that it constricts the vision). A whole landscape of options opened up.

Thank you! It makes perfect sense. I love that I need to find the decision from ________. That's awesome.

Thank you so much for such wonderful work. I really am going to work with the information that surfaced.

Over the past year my issues with depression and anxiety have gone from floods to an occasional sprinkle every now and then, thanks in large part to the work I’ve done with Larisa.

I can tell you firsthand that my commitment to my emotional well-being (despite costing time and money I thought I didn’t have) has been an investment that has paid off tenfold for my business.

Plus, I now feel so much more stable and grounded (rather than like a light breeze could knock me down).

I just wanted you to know that I so appreciate that I got the opportunity to receive work from you for the time I did, because it helped me so much. You have been the most satisfying healing connection I've found in Portland. So I just wanted to say thank you and... just know that I am so grateful for you.

Whatever needed to shift, did. Everything is moving and I keep getting things from my ancestors... My mom just gave me a blanket my great grandmother made and one my grandmother made...

Thank you so much for taking all that time to talk to me about my ancestors and how to relate with them! It was all so powerful!

I’ve been feeling like I’d hit a plateau lately and was wanting something to move me forward. I got it yesterday with you.

It took me awhile to get to sleep. I ‘felt’ my ancestors all around…  ones I know and most that I don’t. I do feel tired today but feel much more peaceful inside knowing what direction to take. Thank you.

So many of the issues I have are around boundaries and feeling like I have the right to be me. That I can be all of me, that me as I am is enough, that my choices and preferences and needs are valid.

It was really helpful to put some space between myself and the ancestral energies so I can exist as a separate entity. It's the difference between having a conscious relationship with each of them on my terms vs being pulled apart by all their various dysfunctions.

Also, it relieves me of the task of trying to find the roots of these things in my own psyche, a search that was getting to be less and less fruitful. Finally, it was interesting to focus on the energetic feeling of them rather than just the stories I know of them, because the stories could only give me a kind of intellectual understanding but not the visceral feeling I had through this work.

I really appreciate the space that you hold for others to explore their questions and find their own answers. I've found that in ritual space, you consistently offer a mature, grounded, and nurturing presence. I am impressed with your comfort level for whatever may come and I look to that as strength and knowing in rituals that are new to me. Which, now that I write that, sounds funny because every ritual is new, right?! :-)

I really want to thank you for helping me through a really hard time in my life.

I don't know if I realized how much guidance and support I was looking for, but I feel like you gave me so much.

You really helped me find this person inside that I am not sure I had ever met before.

I so appreciate your extremely grounded way of discussing spiritual matters. And your wonderful listening skills.

Plus, I am absolutely enchanted with the talisman you made for me. So much so that I’m going to wear it instead of putting it on my bag. It feels like it wants to be close to my heart.

Thank you SO much.

Hi Larisa! Just wanted to let you know I am enjoying these lessons! I started using wide angle vision many years ago while hiking so I could see the trail and the scenery at the same time -- no tripping, no walking for miles looking only at the dirt. Your lessons have reminded me to use that technique in more situations and to be more aware of the corresponding relaxation in my body and spirit. Thanks! :)

This course might just be the key to world peace.

It's not just a relaxation technique, it actually re-wires your thinking. After engaging Owl Eyes for even a few minutes, I feel differently about myself and the world. Thinking about ongoing issues in my life stops overwhelming me, and I intuitively know that all will be okay. It's having a big-picture perspective present while addressing the details of life.

From personal experience I recommend these lessons as a way to let go of trauma and literally change your perspective on life.

While I’ve used this technique in the past, I never saw it as a way to view the world until you called it Owl Eyes.

Softer. Muted. A little fuzzy. It leaves you with a hint of a smile. Gives you a bit of a mask to hide behind. Opens you up to possibilities at the edges of awareness.

It’s simple and brilliant.
