BODY LAND: Guided Meditations to Relax, Recharge, and Self-Regulate
Body Land is a collection of guided meditations designed to be accessible, experiential, and imaginative. The visualizations draw on Eastern medicine, ecofeminism, surrealist art, and somatic therapies for trauma. They aim to help listeners feel grounded, relaxed, and restored, and to shift toward a more positive frame of mind. Creator and host Liz Asch Greenhill is an acupuncturist, writer, artist, and Oregon-licensed psilocybin facilitator who has used these techniques in her clinic for over fifteen years. The podcast is offered as a free resource for experiencing the effects of an acupuncture treatment without needles.
