Moving Up to Root Level

My WP site is currently running in a folder within my main root directory. I would like to move the entire WP site up to my root directory, thus having it take over my website and no longer just being a component of the website.

My current site: https://www.desertsaintsmagazine.com
My WP site: https://desertsaintsmagazine.com/dsmarticles/

If I just move it up one level, will everything crash.

I am basically turning everything over to WP and am going to run my entire website through WP, if possible.

Any thoughts? Am I crazy? Wanna join my madness by leaving advice? Thanks for any help…
