Healing for the Healers 🌿

This past week, the Institute for Integrative Healology had the honor of guiding a wellbeing retreat and educational workshop for the UCLA East-West Fellows in the serene beauty of Palisades Park.

Together, we explored evidence-informed practices for restoring balance and cultivating resilience:

✨ Ritual and Awareness practices

🌀 Progressive muscle relaxation

🌲 Nature therapy

💗 Mindful self-compassion

🌍 Grounding and earthing

Though we forgot to take a group photo (a true sign of deep presence!), nature lovingly documented our time:

🌹 blooming roses

🦅 soaring hawks

🐿️ playful ground squirrels

🐝 gentle bees

🌊 the rhythm of the ocean

☀️☁️ dancing sun and clouds

🌬️ a whispering breeze

👥 curious community members

Grateful to walk alongside the next generation of integrative healers — tending to the inner garden so they may help others flourish. 🌱

With warmth,

Dr. Justin Laube & Dr. Thais Salles Araujo
