Winter Wellness Wakeup: Just Announced – Guest speaker Dr. Katie Hu

UCLA Lake Arrowhead Lodge is pleased to announce a talk by Dr. Katie Hu, a leading voice in integrative medicine whose work bridges traditional healing practices with modern clinical science, has been added to its upcoming Winter Wellness Wakeup agenda.

Dr. Hu, a board-certified family and integrative medicine physician, will discuss longevity and the intersection of East-West medicine in relation to nutrition and aging.

Following training at UCLA, Dr Hu completed both her residency and fellowship in East–West Integrative Medicine and now serves as associate director of the UCLA Center for East–West Medicine and program director of the UCLA East–West Integrative Medicine Fellowship. She also co-directs the UCLA East–West Pediatrics Program, advancing integrative approaches to youth mental health and resilience.

As an associate clinical professor at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, Dr. Hu is known for her dynamic teaching and whole‑person philosophy. Her clinical and research work spans preventive care, women’s health, traditional Chinese medicine and integrative therapies, offering audiences a compelling look at the future of holistic, evidence-based care.

Winter Wellness Wakeup is a three-day mountain retreat running Friday, Feb. 20, through Sunday, Feb. 22. Throughout the weekend, guests will explore how intentional living supports whole-life health and longevity through engaging workshops and other activities led by accredited instructor Jeanne Marie Mudd.

“This is a profoundly holistic retreat; it’s body, mind, heart and spirit,” said Mudd, who has more than 30 years of professional experience in the field of wellness. “So often, retreat experiences are limited to one or two things, but here we’re blending them all together. Participants will experience a retreat that refreshes them and come away with a plan.”

Registration is limited to 40 participants to support a small-group setting and enhance learning and interpersonal connections.
