About Lisa Muchnik

As a nurse anesthetist, yoga instructor, and mother of 2 young children, I am blessed to draw wisdom and inspiration from each area of my life and bring a unique voice to my storytelling. I always had a dream of having a children’s book published, and serendipitously my first book Rainbow Panda was accepted by a traditional publisher. It encompasses all the different aspects of my life where I have drawn wisdom and experience from - as a nurse anesthetist I’m a healer, as an aerial yoga instructor I get to focus on playfulness and lightness of spirit, and as a mom I get to see the world through my kids’ eyes everyday. I am blessed to have this dream come true.

My book provides a fresh perspective on finding identity and inner beauty by focusing on the rainbow colored energies within us and the important qualities they each embody. I have always been fascinated by the chakra energy system that is rooted in yoga tradition and from very early ages I taught my children the significance of these colored energies. Seeing how much it genuinely resonated with them gave me the idea to incorporate this ancient lesser known aspect of yogic wisdom and transform it into a modern, relatable, and exciting approach.
