Felicía Desrosiers found acupuncture in Quito, Ecuador in the year 2000. She went on to attend POCA Tech in Portland, teach there, and found North Portland Community Acupuncture, a pop-up clinic in a bar that she made feel sacred every single day she opened it. She is now in Madrid, Spain, doing it all over again.
In this episode: why she thinks acupuncture is an adaptogen for the medicine and for the people who practice it, what it actually takes to make a space feel holy, why a practitioner who knows ten points and shows up with intention can change someone's life.
Also: a temescal in Mexico, a Scrabble word on a train, and why she thinks we should have acupuncture clinics everywhere the same way we have restaurants.
