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 we are out-of-network with your health insurance, you can pay up front and we will give you a superbill to send in to your insurance company so that they reimburse you directly. 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.

Recharge the Heart

This visualization goes out to the leaders working for positive change. Thank you for your efforts, your passion, and your sacrifices. We use metaphor as medicine to land in our bodies. We send ripples through the body with our breath, ignite the heart, and entrust the pelvis and the mind to support our nervous system so we can rest and recharge.

#boundaries

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.

The Down Dial

Turn the dial down on your nervous system to catch some solid sleep and bring your body into repose. When we invite the deep yin into our being, we can surrender our nervous energy and find a sense of peace.

Love Nest for Kids

Our 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!

An Explanation of Guided Self Work

This episode is not a guided visualization, but rather it’s a talk about doing this work on one’s own. I walk you through the way I use guided visualization as a practice in my self care. If you listen and give it a try for yourself, I’d love to hear how it works out for you.

Play that Song

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.

Viral Combat

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.

SEASON TWO - INTRO - WELCOME BACK

It’s March 17th and we are starting Season Two together. We are in a topsy-turvy time of great uncertainty and we have — each other. We have our bodies, minds, hearts, and spirits. We have our connection uniting us and the commonality of care among us. We have that between us and inside each of us. That’s our spark. We are going to work with that on all levels. I got a big lesson in viruses last week when I was sick and I will pass along what I learned from my body’s various responses. This season I’ll give you visualizations on: the Immune System, the Throat, the Lungs, Viral Load, Anxiety, Depression, Insomnia, and the Nervous System. Along with the guided visualizations, I’ll also include talks on kitchen remedies and accessible plant medicine you can hopefully find in the park or the median or in your neck of the woods. I’ll share links with you to tai chi and qi gong exercises and folk medicine techniques and all kinds of self-care tools you can practice at home. I’m here for you. Send me your requests.

With my clinic temporarily closed, I am switching, like many providers, to online care. You can schedule a Telehealth session with me where I can advise you on health concerns, teach you acupressure and home herbal remedies, and do customized interactive guided visualizations with you.
