The Lissome #5: Rise Up Rooted, Like Trees

A journey through healing practices, regenerative projects, and tools for inner alignment.

Amidst a global climate of unrest and overwhelm, The Lissome’s fifth print edition offers a grounded and hopeful response: an exploration of what it means to cultivate resilience – personally, culturally and ecologically. Inspired by a line from Rainer Maria Rilke, “If we surrendered to earth’s intelligence, we could rise up rooted, like trees,” this issue asks how we can root ourselves in the wisdom of the Earth to face uncertainty with courage and imagination.

Bringing together visionary voices from the fields of fashion, craft, storytelling, somatics and social change, this edition journeys through healing practices, regenerative projects and tools for inner alignment. Through in-depth features, conversations and visual essays, Rise Up Rooted Like Trees offers a guiding light: to reclaim agency, to reconnect, and to imagine a future worth growing into.

Since it’s launch in 2021, The Lissome has become a unique voice for a growing regenerative movement within fashion, placing human and planetary well-being first. The magazine provides a crucial space for climate, fashion and vision. Using poetic long-form writing and fashion editorials, The Lissome is fast becoming renowned for conceptual storytelling and inspirational principles, celebrating craftsmanship and the transformative power of beauty.
