Creating Vibrant Health
The art of healing is a constant balance between attending to the physical body, the mental body and subtle influences or energetics. I believe that natural therapies assist the individual who is ready to create change within themselves. Ayurveda encompasses all aspects of life.
Ayurveda is the science where what is useful and detrimental to health and life, the happy and unhappy states of life; what is good and bad for life, and its measurement of life itself, are described. ~CS Sūt. 41, ch/vol.1
Focusing on inherent qualities of her clients, Elizabeth's goal is to serve their highest potential while working through health complaints - collaboratively and patiently. With 15 years immersed in complimentary health, she is knowledgable about full body wellness and various integrative modalities. Her knowledge about nutraceuticals, when necessary, is comprehensive. As an herbal apprentice in the Pacific Northwest (2010), she foraged field and mountain and worked with the unique actions of plants as food medicine, using them continuously therafter.
A proponent of slow food, Elizabeth was a pastry & dessert baker by profession before her journey into complimentary health. She enjoys cooking from scratch for healing as well as vitality, using wisdom from traditional dietary principles. She is a continual student in health related topics (allopathic, integrative, traditional) and studies east/west spirituality. Originally from the riverlands of Missouri, her travels included years of artistic exploration and ways to infuse health with creative practice.
