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

Comencemos con una visualización basada en una sola imagen: una pluma. Esta visualización puede ayudarnos a enfocarnos y practicar el arte de generar sensaciones internas usando nuestra imaginación como herramienta. Es una interpretación creativa del trabajo de respiración, pero en este caso, la imagen es la fuerza que guía la conciencia de la respiración.

Keeping it real, keeping it surreal, and keeping it brief. Let’s do more with less with a season of extra shorty visualizations for the now. Wishing you good health, good luck, and composure for the continued intensity of 2020.
Feeling a bit drained these days? Working on your hashtag boundaries? We’ve got some six feet of separation self-care for ya. I talk super briefly about how fractal patterns of self:other are part of the body’s defenses from the perspective of Chinese Medicine and then we drop into a super soothing visualization that helps you disentangle your energy from others which ultimately benefits your immune system.
Read MoreOur first visualization for kids! This exercise is designed to help kids feel surrounded by safety and tenderness as an experiential antidote to anxiety, worries, and fear. I recommend that adults do the exercise alongside the kids so that they can share their experiences afterwards. Let me know how it goes!
There’s music coming from the ribcage when we use the superpowers of our imagination to turn the diaphragm into a DJ. Sound weird? Give it a try and let me know if you feel different after.
Using metaphor medicine we clear the lungs with a series of varied images and acts of tenderness, practicing how to move energy in the body.
Together we look to the movies to inspire our immune system to fight with swords. Then we clean up and take a long qi shower. We are using our imaginations to help us feel better.
One River. One Body. Feel them merge. Be the current.
Water is soft and silky, mighty and powerful, and deeply cleansing.
We have a lot of work ahead of us to make our rivers as clean and fresh as they are in our imaginations. If you feel called to make a donation, here are some organizations doing deep work:
If you are like me, a creative thinker who is a touch high strung, then you've probably had anxiety influence your mood and your body. Have you ever invented a catastrophe and felt your stomach flip, sweat break out, or your chest get tight...or worse? All you did was invent a story…and let it play out in your mind, and your body reacted as if it had happened (at least a little bit.) Just the thought made you sick. That's how powerful the imagination is. Stories do affect our bodies. So, let's tell ourselves some stories that help us feel more safe, more creative, more calm, more grounded, and more aligned. Then we can put the imagination to use to help us feel better.
