About Elise Bowerman

Hi – I’m Elise!

I help people live a more natural, vibrant life through the practice of yoga, MUTU System^®, and natural products for the whole family and home.

As founder of Sweet Momma Yoga^TM, I've helped over a thousand women move with intentional awareness through major life transitions.

I've been doing this my whole life. 

Every. Single. Day. This. 

Cultivating the balance of living in our demanding, modern, technology-based, competitive, insecure, fast-paced society with holistic tools to thrive. Let me help you do the same.

Growing Up

As a pre-teen my mom became very granola. At the grocery store she read food labels and nutrition facts. (Very few were doing this back in the late 80's and early 90's.... As if!) She even used canvas bags before it was socially acceptable --- so embarrassing! As a family we regularly visited a Classical Homeopath to stay well and heal. By taking the time to ask questions, in addition to researching, my mom instilled a strong foundation within me to do the same.

For over 20 years I’ve carried on my mom’s curiosity and diligence in finding the truth to thriving in this life; instead of just surviving. The key is having a collaborative approach to staying well. There is no “one” way to do something... and what might work for a while may need to change into another method as we continue to heal, grow and gather more information.

By no means am I offering medical advice or saying I know it all. I am constantly learning new things every day; just like you. I’m devoted to living well and existing consciously with our environment. 

8 things you might not know about me

1. I am really good at painting my own nails.
   Ambidexterity is apparent in my nail work. The right-hand nails look just as good as the left-hand nails.
2. I am curious about everything!
   On more than one occasion I’ve been guilty of asking “too personal” of questions. If this happens to you, I apologize. Tell me it’s personal. I truly am curious about the way people think, and why we do the things we do!
3. I'm an introvert.
   It's kinda funny how I enjoy being on stage and teaching large groups, yet, in daily life I love to observe others and require plenty of time to myself.
4. My son was named 10 years before he was born.
   When I was in high school (and I’m sure I knew it before that) I told my mom my son’s name would be Luc. I also have an affinity for anything French, so his name was perfect!
5. I can de-clutter and organize in a snap!
   At least twice a year I go through my belongings and willingly donate whatever I haven't used within the last year or two. I find it cathartic and it gives me a high.
6. I almost pursued a business degree instead of dance.
   Just one of many experiences of trusting my gut, instead of intellect, to guide me to the next phase of my life.
7. Fine wine is my weakness.
   Celani, Caymus, and Beaux Frères are at the top of my list.
8. I met my husband at a bar.
   True love will find you – wherever you’re at – when you’re ready. 

You'll find me in my native land, Southeast Michigan, with my husband, Jon, two children, and dog, Maya.
