We offer transformative acupuncture to reduce pain (physical and emotional) and support the nervous system and whole being. We do not offer managed care or 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. Seasons 1-4 are in English, and season 5 is en Español.

Settle into a quiet space where you can close your eyes and take time out to reconnect with yourself and your breath. We will ignite the imagination to restore a sense of connectedness with the cosmos and with our own bodies to feel more centered, grounded, and get better sleep.
Read MoreWelcome back to Body Land Metaphor Medicine, an archive of guided visualizations that engage the superpowers of your imagination to help you relax and restore. These salutary stories are informed by Surrealist art, Eastern Medicine, and Somatic methods for self-regulation. I’m your creator and host, Liz Asch Greenhill. I am an author and artist, and the acupuncturist at Night Sky Acupuncture and Ideaphoria.
Together we centrifuge the heart clean and clear with a shimmy-ing hula hoop of UV light. Wut.
Read MoreTurn 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.
Tune in to my first visualization for teens wherein we do several somatic exercises with visualization to move energy in the ribcage and diaphragm, to land in our bodies with a sense of belonging and connection. Adults are welcome to do this too, of course. It’s really for anyone. Let me know how it goes for you! You can find me at Night Sky Acupuncture or on Instagram at Metaphor_Medicine.
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.
Today’s jam is about poetry and jellyfish and feeling them deep in your being to regulate your Central nervous System.
Read MoreThis GV (guided visualization) is 22 minutes. Allow some extra time on the end to rest and continue the visualization in your own mind-body or else just space out. You can listen solo or with your family and then all compare experiences. Your immune system contains a dynamic and rich blueprint of biodiversity which runs without your input largely, but in this visualization, we offer our input, using language to speak directly to our cells, to communicate our intentions and desires for all hands on deck throughout this magnificent system in our bodies and in each others.
Juice up your jing, which, in Chinese Medicine, is your deep essence goo, kinda like how oil is the deep essence goo of the Earth. People with BJE (Big Jing Energy) live long, love hard, and run strong.

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:
You are sandwiched between the earth and sky. This is where you belong. Here, and in your body. Blend into the horizon to pleasantly disappear -- and belong.
