Path one

Start With Your Body

Massage and Bodywork for Healing

For when the tension lives in the body first. Somatic release, craniosacral therapy and bodywork that lets your nervous system lead.

How this works

Why bodywork helps you heal

What we carry does not only live in memory. It shows up as held breath, tight shoulders, a jaw that will not let go. Talking about it can only reach so far when the body is still bracing.

Gentle, nervous-system-led touch, blending craniosacral therapy, therapeutic touch, subtle massage and energy work, gives your body a chance to feel safe enough to soften. Nothing is forced. The session follows your pace, so release happens when your system is ready.

Path two

Start With Your Story

Coaching, Education and Mentorship

For when the old stories keep running the show. One-on-one coaching and education to loosen the hold of the past and reconnect with your own authority.

How this works

How your story impacts your reality

The stories we learned in order to survive, about who we are, what we deserve and who is in charge of how we feel, quietly shape what we notice, what we choose and what we expect from life.

Using tools like NLP, shadow work and spiritual principles, we bring those stories into the light so you can question them and choose again. The result is greater self-trust, clearer boundaries and emotional sovereignty.

Testimonials


"Working with Mirilena has been a truly fulfilling experience I would recommend her to anyone who wants to better themselves, both in how they relate to others and to themselves...it's a deeply personal journey, and one that continues to impact me long after the classes were completed. I still use the tools and mindset shifts I gained through coaching with Mirilena in my everyday life."

-Annya, Acceptance Alchemy Student

"Miri does a wonderful job of holding space with the empathy to understand her clients struggles and help them get to the root of the habit or cycle. This helped me look at myself and my struggles from a new and more honest perspective, so that the pattern can be changed rather than repeated. I would highly recommend her coaching to anyone who wants to make big changes in their life but doesn’t know where, how or what to do to start the process."

-Preston, Empowerment Breakthrough Graduate

"Miri is so talented and I highly recommend her coaching services. The coaching I received during her program helped me view myself, others, and situations in a new light. Her program will set you up for success and give you tools that you can use for the rest of your life."

-Rachel, Acceptance Alchemy Student

Frequently asked questions

Rebel Rising Workshops and Events are not meant to replace 12 step recovery. Whether you want to build on what you learned in 12 Step Recovery or r 12 Step Recovery isn't for you, Rebel Rising is a meant to give you tools to help you THRIVE in recovery vs. just surviving. It is my personal mission to provide resources for living a life where we can truly recover, learning to handle conflict, trust ourselves again, and to stand in our values and our power. Rebel Rising workshops and Acceptance Alchemy Programs are all designed for just that!

NO! The work of Acceptance Alchemy is a collection of tools that help you to live an empowered life. It's mostly education that is meant to help you remember who you are at your core and you have the power to choose your story. We use NLP, Shadow Work, Victim Consciousness, Personal Growth tools and Spiritual principles to help you uncover the truth of who you are. Acceptance Alchemy and Rebel Rising programs and coaching are NOT therapy. For people who have been in therapy for a long time, and feel like they have hit a plateau, the work we do together can be an alternative to therapy. However, I love working with people who are in therapy! It's great to have a broad support network. Often I find that my clients benefit from being both in therapy and doing the work of Acceptance Alchemy, as therapy appointments often don't allow for the in depth education we offer in our workshops, coaching and breakthrough sessions. 

Rebel Rising: Defining Your Recovery is for survivors and seekers from every walk of life. Whether you’ve been in long-term recovery through a 12-step program or you’re just beginning your healing journey, this space is designed for you. Our workshops offer empowerment-based recovery tools that go beyond survival—helping you step into a life where you truly thrive. No matter what you’re recovering from—substance use, an abusive relationship, or patterns like people-pleasing—Rebel Rising is here to support you in reclaiming your power, rewriting your story, and rising into your fullest self.

This isn’t therapy. It’s a two-day, life-changing intensive designed for people who are ready to take their growth to the next level. The Empowerment Breakthrough Session is a powerful complement to therapy, or an alternative for those who feel ready to “graduate” from traditional talk work and step fully into creating the life they want. Over two days, we’ll use proven personal growth tools and the power of your own mind to release what’s been holding you back. That might be old emotional weight—like anger, fear, sadness, hurt, or guilt—limiting beliefs you’ve carried for years, or habits and patterns that no longer serve you. Together, we’ll help you clear the slate, rewire the way you think and feel, and reconnect with your true potential. This experience is about liberation—being free to be who you want to be, do what you want to do, and have what you want to have. If you’re tired of sitting on the sidelines of your life, this is your invitation to step into your power and start living the life you’ve always dreamed of.
