SIFCare Brings Acu Detox and Meditation to DSWD-CAR’s National SFP Strategic Planning in Baguio City

SIFCare was honored to be invited by the Department of Social Welfare and Development – Cordillera Administrative Region (DSWD-CAR) through Ma’am Eleanor B. Ayan, to participate in the National Supplementary Feeding Program (SFP) Strategic Planning for 2025 held in Baguio City. In support of the participants—who came from across different regions of the Philippines—SIFCare volunteers provided Acu Detox and Meditation sessions as part of the event’s wellness offerings.

SIFCare recognizes the vital role that community service providers play in shaping and supporting the welfare of the nation. With this, the organization emphasizes the importance of holistic well-being for those on the frontlines. By offering these wellness services, SIFCare hopes to help maintain the mental clarity, emotional balance, and physical health of the individuals who tirelessly serve their communities.

What is Acu Detox and Meditation?

Acu Detox, short for Auricular Acupuncture Detoxification, is a therapy that involves the application of small, sterilized needles to specific points in the ear. It is a widely used technique to help reduce stress, anxiety, and fatigue, and promote relaxation and emotional healing.

Meditation, on the other hand, is a practice of focused attention and mindfulness that helps bring the mind to a calm and centered state. When combined with Acu Detox, meditation enhances the body’s natural healing processes, encourages mental clarity, and supports inner peace.

The participants welcomed the experience with open arms, expressing appreciation for the calming and grounding effects of the sessions. SIFCare volunteers were grateful to be able to share these holistic practices and contribute to the overall wellness of those who dedicate their lives to service.

Through small yet impactful interventions such as this, SIFCare continues its mission to uplift lives—one breath, one moment of stillness at a time.
