Medical Acupuncture and Global Wellness

ABSTRACT

Physical and mental health challenges seem to be part of our daily living. To understand the latest consensus, I attended a symposium, June 30, 2021, advocating global health by using acupuncture and integrative medicine at the Lansdowne Resort for a Global Wellness Event, in Leesburg, Virginia. Group sound bathing and meditation were offered to the participants in a therapeutic session. This was to prepare our minds and bodies for the experience of this symposium. Do we wish to lead a revolution in the science of health—especially now—to maintain and thrive in the era of COVID-19? This was the main theme of this event. To understand COVID-19 better, experts were present who explained its biology and perhaps what might be expected in the future as this virus winds down or rebounds as variants.
