Meet Liza!

What is your favorite yoga pose?

Camel or Pigeon

How does your yoga practice build strength beyond the studio?

For me, having a practice is much more about the 'beyond the studio' than it is in the studio. Each day is an opportunity where I get to choose how to be, how to live, how to navigate. It doesn't always seem like it, but I get to choose patience or distraction, love or criticism, etc., etc.. for myself, for others, and the earth. The practice teaches me that I always hold the power to pause and take a different path if one isn't working, so that the world isn't happening to me, but rather, we're coexisting and coevolving synergistically. 

What is something about you that your Mighty community may not know? 

I run Wellspring Forest Farm, a sheep, mushroom, maple syrup, chicken, and fruit farm with my family, Steve, Maiya, and Aydin in Trumansburg.
