Description

Specialties

Liz Eisman, LMT, RYT believes yoga and bodywork can offer people the physical and emotional space to ease pain, to cultivate curiosity and to discover personal clarity.

The way we treat ourselves is reflected in our treatment of others. When we are able

to connect and honor ourselves, we pass that along.

We all long for connection with others but sadly are confused about connecting

with ourselves. When we are unclear about our boundaries and personal

needs, we muddle interactions and consequently end up decreasing our chances

for satisfying interactions.

Lasting change begins from the inside out however we need support and guidance along the way. A loving supportive space held by an experienced practitioner can transform how you live with yourself and others.

Clients report feeling deeply cared for, clearer about what is important and inspired

to take the steps to care more fully for themselves.
