Campbell, California, United States - November 28, 2023 —

Hiding emotional and mental anguish originating from sexual abuse, trauma, work, relationships, or any psychological issues can impact everyday life and relationships if they remain untreated. They find it challenging to discuss these symptoms with anyone and keep things to themselves. However, suppressing these emotions can have an adverse effect on their physical and mental health without proper support and therapy. A much better approach is talking to a trained psychiatrist to process and overcome traumatic memories.

There has been new discoveries and advancement in mental health treatments, which can help restore balance and build resilience and recovery for people going through psychological issues. Therefore, instead of putting aside one's mental and emotional well-being, consulting a trained therapist can be a good idea. For instance, Bay Area Mental Health has trained practitioners specializing in the latest therapeutic modules, such as EMDR and integrative psychiatry, which help them to provide result-oriented treatments for a wide range of mental health symptoms. Linnea Butler, LMFT, the organization's founder and CEO, has assembled a team of skilled and passionate therapists to assist individuals who have endured traumatic experiences as children, resulting in PTSD and Complex PTSD, debilitating depression, or anxiety, in regulating their intense emotions and constructing a life worth living.

One commonly used therapy for sexual abuse and trauma is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), which is designed to help individuals process and overcome traumatic memories. This therapy uses bilateral stimulation, typically through guided eye movements, which helps reduce emotional upheavals associated with these memories. In addition, medication management can be a part of the treatment for relieving symptoms like anxiety or sadness that are linked to trauma in some situations. What differentiates Bay Area Mental Health from others is customizing the treatment program and using integrative psychiatry, addressing not only the symptoms but also the overall well-being of the individual. Its qualified psychiatrists, like Natasha Kruger, Ph.D., can customize treatment regimens by including other therapeutic techniques like talk therapy, mindfulness, and art therapy. This results in a more individualized and efficient approach.

In sum, Bay Area Mental Health provides a safe and non-judgmental space to discuss and find recovery through evidence-based therapies for people dealing with trauma, relationship issues, bipolar disorder, and other psychological issues.

How Hong Kong’s post-war tattoo scene fused sailor art with Chinese imagery

When Taiwan-based tattoo artist Jimmy Shy and street-film photographer Yu Chang decided to travel to Hong Kong to document the city’s fading post-war tattoo history, they agreed on one criterion: they would find their subjects only on the street. “We relied entirely on instinct,” Shy says of the project, which started in 2023 but began life as casual phone photos years earlier. “A lot of tattoos were hidden under clothing, so whenever we had a feeling that someone might have the kind of tattoo...

Musikwela brings Filipino values to life through music, puppetry

Musikwela, a Filipino children's educational entertainment program that uses music, storytelling, puppetry and animation to teach values, will release five new episodes in November covering respect for elders, indigenous culture, autism awareness, disaster preparedness and environmental care. The five 30-minute episodes, co-produced by Ideasquest Inc. and the National Council for Children's Television (NCCT), an attached agency of the Department of Education, aim to make learning more engaging while helping children understand social issues and appreciate Filipino traditions. During a media launch, Musikwela founder and executive director Ellen Estrada said the program draws from personal experiences and real-life encounters to create stories that children can relate to and learn from. “Most of the things you see are made by us. We made all the puppets and all the songs. Even the costumes were sewn in a small community in Las Piñas,” Estrada said, explaining how her team handled much of the creative work behind the production despite limited resources. The new episodes feature the Musikscouts, composed of Estrada's daughter, Yumi Sansano, and three furry puppet characters, Potpot, Lala and Biboy. Through their adventures, the characters demonstrate how children can respond to problems by helping others and practicing values such as empathy, respect and responsibility. Estrada said she hopes the stories will encourage children to look beyond their immediate surroundings and appreciate the diversity of Filipino communities. “I realized how rich our cultures are and how much there is to learn about them. We are so rich. We just don't know it, and we just don't teach it,” she said. “We may be scattered across thousands of islands, but that does not mean we can never be one,” she said. Musikwela received support through an NCCT grant, while Ideasquest also contributed resources to complete the production. “Filipinos can create a funny, child-friendly show, but we cannot do it alone. We want to bring it to schools. We want to do road shows. We want to partner with brands that believe we can do more to help our children.,” she said. Beyond the five episodes, Estrada said she hopes to explore other subjects, including financial literacy. She believes children should learn early about empathy, respect, responsibility and the value of money. She also encouraged students and aspiring creators to develop stories that reflect experiences and issues they genuinely care about. “For a story to be meaningful to others, it must be meaningful to you first. It must affect you in some way,” she said. The new episodes will be available in November through Musikwela's website and social media platforms, including Facebook and YouTube.

Homeware line designed for dormers, young couples, small families

College students in dorms and young couples starting out often need a few items to make their spaces more comfortable. These often include basics like flatware, plates, beddings and maybe a lamp or two. While there are department stores and home store chains that offer pretty much the same kind of mix, one of the newer entrants is the Metro Retail Stores Group. Last month, it launched its own brand of home basics, Metro Living in its four Metro Department Stores located in Alabang, Market Market, Ayala Center Cebu, and Super Metro Colon. Arranged on open shelves and in compact displays, the merchandise is basic and designed to work together. “For Metro Living, we’ve shifted our entire retail philosophy from selling individual products to delivering fully integrated lifestyle solutions. Previously, customers had to navigate different aisles to assemble a look,” Joel Orense, Metro Retail President and COO told The Manila Times in an email interview. “Through our dedicated shop-in-shop concept, we bring fully curated, pre-styled living spaces directly to the retail floor. It eliminates decision fatigue, offers immediate aesthetic inspiration, and maximizes customer convenience. We are elevating the overall shopping experience, and based on initial performance, we plan to scale this format to additional key stores next year,” he added. Placing these household staples in a dedicated location inside their stores was only logical as it takes out the guesswork for shoppers. Orense said that historically, people bought items for their homes from different stores. While this can actually be a fun exercise on a weekend or during sale season, it can also be a chore for people who might prefer to do something else with their time. “By engineering a cross-category, cohesive product matrix, Metro Living bridges that gap — transforming single-item transactions into complete room solutions,” he said. The current merchandise mix at the Metro stores includes beddings, pillow cases and cushion covers, kitchen linens, and window treatments. There also plates, cutlery and compact storage systems. “Metro Living is tailored for the modern Filipino demographic — specifically first-time condo owners, growing families, young homeowners, and value-conscious style seekers,” Orense said. “These consumers want practical, elevated, and contemporary home aesthetics without compromising on affordability or functionality.”

Opera Hong Kong’s Cavalleria Rusticana and Pagliacci double bill lights up the stage

Opera Hong Kong’s first fully staged production of Pietro Mascagni’s 1890 Cavalleria Rusticana and Ruggero Leoncavallo’s 1892 Pagliacci does justice to the classic double bill.

Since 1893, the two operas have often been performed together for obvious reasons. Both are set in the rural Italian south and both explore themes of jealousy,...
