UIHS CommunicationsAll News, Tribal Public Health

In honor of this time of year when we self-reflect and naturally focus on wellness goals, I would like to share the UIHS Weaving Culture into Wellness video series on the United Indian Health Services YouTube page. 

“This series showcases the wellness of mind, body & spirit by utilizing our sources of strength, which is culture. These videos will share stories of experiences, instructions, and tips with an infusion of contemporary & traditional practices around food, movement, sports, wellness, & culture.” says Jude Marshall. 

Weaving Culture Into Wellness is a new video series by the UIHS Community Nutrition Program was filmed, edited, and produced by Native Hawaiian, Daniel Aipa @thekuproject and produced by Jude Marshall (Hupa, Karuk, Yurok). The films feature local wellness & cultural practitioners of Northern California. 

Be sure to keep an eye out on the Potawot Community Food Garden Facebook or Instagram for the latest release. Video and editing credit to Daniel Aipa, the founder and creative director of The KŪ Project.” 

This series was made possible by the California Rural Indian Health Board (CRIHB) Advancing California Opportunities to Renew Native Health Systems (ACORNS) program which is funded by the Center of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). #foodisgoodmedicine #weavingcultureintowellness
