Broccoli Boiled or Steamed?

STEAMED.

For me.

Plain.

With garlic. Garlique? Gar-leek. Garlicleeky? Leaky garlic.

Ew.

This week our discussion is on mental health. It will be a more serious but just as insightful discussion as before. Learn stress-relieving techniques, especially potent against the distress of midterms and papers. Sit comfortably while we massage your brain with a nice stimulating activity. Coordinates:

What: Cal Queer and Asian (Q&A) Discussion: Mental Health
Where: 305 Eshleman (QARC)
When: Wednesday, 7 October 2009
Time: 7:30-9:00PM

====================

Cal Queer and Asian is proud to present an excellent educational workshop led by Shin Yi Tsai, a queer Taiwanese American therapist with a private practice in Berkeley.

With over 12 years of experience working with diverse communities at agencies like The Pacific Center in Berkeley and the Asian & Pacific Islander Wellness Center in San Francisco, Shin Yi specializes in helping queer, transgender and intersex people feel less isolated and more confident in who they are. Visit her website at www.510therapy.com.

Shin Yi's workshop will teach us how to pay closer attention to what your Inner Critic is saying and learn to effectively talk back to it. Being both Asian/Pacific Islander and LGBTQQI, we oftentimes develop painfully loud Inner Critics, who recite negative messages from the mainstream media, social institutions, our families of origin and many other sources. This workshop will help you to identify what your Inner Critic is saying, understand where it comes from and learn how to manage it in healthy ways. Individually and collectively, we don't have to give the Inner Critic so much power over telling us who we are and who we want to be.
