We offer transformative acupuncture to reduce pain (physical and emotional) and support the nervous system and whole being. We do not manage care or do primary care. If we are a good fit, we can serve as an auxiliary person in your network. We are both certified herbalists and can bring herbal medicine into your treatment plan, along with bodywork and other Eastern Medicine modalities. Liz is also an educator on creative embodiment and offers virtual sessions to individuals and groups of artists and thinkers.

Liz is the creator and host of Body Land Metaphor Medicine, a free guided visualization resource on the podcast platform. Listen and get a sense of what it’s like to work with me. These are deep listening experiences that require time set aside in a still, quiet place. They can be listened to in bed for insomnia, via headphones on public transportation for self-regulation, in groups as a guided meditation with an integration discussion afterwards, and so on. They are not to be listened to while driving or multi-tasking. Listen on Spotify, Apple podcasts, Amazon Music, or download directly here on my website. Please share widely. These are a public offering.

You can sign up for a session here for one-on-one acupuncture at 811 East Burnside (second floor, no elevator) across from the Jupiter Hotel. Or, reach out to Yumé for her availability for a session at your hotel, home, or hospice place of care. acuyume@gmail.com

We are in-network with Providence, MODA, and Pacific Source.

If the out-of-pocket cost prohibits you from coming in, please email us and let us know. If you are a community organizer for a BIPOC non-profit, you may receive up to four free sessions per year. Sign up under the BLM option for your free healthcare.

COMING SOON… SOUND BITES FOR SELF CARE

July 21, 2019  /  Liz Greenhill

BODY LAND is a podcast style resource for your self care. These sound bites send deep image lyric storytelling through your ears to your body. These guided visualizations are made by me, Liz Greenhill, licensed acupuncturist, artist, and writer, and they are based on the hands-on work I do with patients.

The basis for these visualizations comes from my personal experience with anxiety. When I was in my twenties, I struggled with my mental health. The EMDR therapist who helped me through that difficult time, Bruce Patterson, taught me that anxiety is the imagination gone rogue. In an anxiety state we are telling ourselves stories that aren't true, stories that are filled with hypothetical tragedy, pain, chaos, and scenarios of misfortune and failure. The idea behind Body Land is that we can repurpose our wonderfully creative imaginations for the opposite effect: to use metaphor and lyric imagery to get embodied and build sensations of safety, nurturing our cravings for belonging, awareness, intuition, and inner peace. These small experiences are not meant to be curative solutions for anxiety but rather help managing it. They offer fleeting micro-antidotes to help you remember what the opposite of anxiety feels like and to land in your body and claim it as your home.

Each visualization is designed for you to feel more safe and comfortable in your own skin. Listen to these visualizations with your eyes closed and let the imagery sink in to your bones. Let yourself space out, travel to the in-between, or even sleep. The images that appear in your mind's eye are yours to keep. Imagine them floating around inside you like holograms in outer space. You can call on them whenever you need. Your body will remember. 

BODY LAND is produced by Night Sky Acupuncture + Ideaphoria.
