About This Event

In this day and age, being able to cultivate resilience, especially during times of duress, is an important skill to hone with regards to taking good care of our health.  Many of us have felt overwhelmed, worried, and anxious with regards to our current public health situation.  Join Dr. Villanueva to learn simple, yet effective practices, grounded in acupressure, medical qigong, and mindfulness, that can support your well-being, mental health, and resiliency.

She also works part-time at her alma mater, Acupuncture & Integrative Medicine College as a Project Manager.
