Lizzie Ackerman - Registered Yoga Teacher 200
Lizzie recently received
her certification
from her teacher, Marni Task. The
Jivasara Teacher Training is inspired by two different styles of
yoga; Anusara and Jivamukti yoga. She has been cultivating a regular
yoga practice for about 5 years and is excited to continue learn and
to offer her knowledge and experience to others!
Why you love doing what you do?
I love yoga because it’s a way to become more connected to and in tune with oneself, and ultimately to connect with others. As the Jivamukti tradition states, “Yoga is the natural state. The origin of truth, beauty, eternal happiness and bliss”.
Why did you bring what you love to do to the
Clinic?
I love the environment at
the clinic and am eager to share what I have learned with those who are
seeking to improve their health and well-being.
What do you think the benefits are to providing an integrated wellness clinic to this community?
I think that an integrated wellness clinic can offer something for everyone and provides options to fit people’s specific needs. The different services provided can work independently or in conjunction with one another for total wellness!
Share with us the name of a few books that inspire you:
Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert – This is one of my favorite books and is very inspiring as it offers a very relatable and inspiring view on life, love and spirituality.
Midnights with the Mystic by Cheryl Simone – This book offers the knowledge of Sadhguru Vasudev via the spiritual journey of the author Cheryl. Sadhguru has a lot of interesting responses to many of the questions in life that are asked over and over again!
