About

Elizabeth Astor

MSOM, L.Ac, Dipl. OM, CHom

I am a spiritual teacher, licensed acupuncturist and herbalist, certified homeopath, medical  intuitive, Akashic Records consultant, and body-mind-spirit specialist. My work brings  together many years of study and practice across medicine, healing, meditation, intuition,  and spirituality. I am deeply grateful to have spent more than 25 years exploring  meditation practices and traditions from around the world, including more than a year of  my life in meditation retreat. I am trained as a meditation instructor within two different  Dharma traditions and have taught meditation, self-compassion, and awareness for more  than a decade.

In 2023, I was confirmed as a lineage holder in the lineage of Adyashanti by my teacher  Sharon Landrith, and I teach meditation and the path of awakening with their support. I  bring my whole heart to walking the path of a modern-day mystic while also being a  mother of two daughters and working in the world. For me, spirituality is not about leaving  our human lives behind—it is about bringing the depth of our practice into the way we live,  love, heal, and serve.

“My teaching arises from the knowing that inside each one of us there is a clear light and loving awareness.”

I am most passionate about supporting people who are on a path of awakening and who  feel called to bring their full hearts and gifts into the world. My work is rooted in soul  evolution and in discovering the path that is most true for each person. Through healing,  meditation, intuition, and spiritual practice, I support the integration of body, mind, and  spirit so that we can live with greater clarity, wholeness, and alignment with our deepest  potential. 

My teaching arises from the knowing that inside each one of us there is a clear light and  loving awareness. Like a diamond, it is indestructible, ever present, and shining from our  wholeness and love. There is nothing more precious in this life than being in touch with that  truth—to allow the luminosity and love of the Divine and our true nature to permeate  every aspect of our lives.

Picture yourself lying in a soft hole carved out of the middle of a giant redwood tree, being gently held and protected, but also grounded, connected and energized through its roots that go down deep into the earth; that is what working with Elizabeth feels like. As I reflect back on my 9 years of working with Elizabeth Astor, I deeply feel her unique personal approach to healing has been the most beneficial and sustaining of anyone I have ever met. The work we do is always healing and supportive, but also inspirational. I leave a session or workshop not only comforted and revived, but also excited to work with the knowledge and tools I’ve been gifted. I am able to better tune into my body and heart on a more regular basis thanks to my work with her, and I can finally pay close attention to what I am experiencing in a way I never could before.

I am alive and thriving because of my supportive and empowering work with Elizabeth; I might not be either if not for my work with her. She’s a miracle worker who really sees you, and then empowers you to create your own miracles. I have felt safe and held, learned so much, and developed my own practices and support because of my faith in her process. Elizabeth helped me navigate cancer in a holistic (mind-body-spiritual) way that equipped me to make the changes necessary in my life to have healing and health moving forward.”
