Produced in partnership with Visit Greater Palm Springs, this short film explores wellness through the lens of Agua Caliente tribal traditions — where healing comes not only from water and earth, but from memory, ritual, and connection.

Narrated by Tribal Elder Moraino Patencio, the story follows the path of ancient bird songs, the wisdom of desert botanicals, and the significance of 12,000-year-old mineral springs as a source of healing and renewal. More than a spa destination, this place is a bridge between past and present — a living tradition that invites visitors to slow down, reconnect, and find balance.

As part of Goodfellow’s work in video production for wellness and cultural organizations, this film reflects our belief in storytelling that honors place, people, and purpose. We aim to create films that invite presence — and helps mission-driven partners share not just what they offer, but what they believe.

Wellness for us is a continuous dialogue with the past, a respect for our heritage, and a commitment to carrying its wisdom into the future.
