SUMMARY:Confucius Institute Talk: Wellbeing - The Chinese Approach

DESCRIPTION:What really is wellbeing and do we need to look at the wellbe
 ing of the Chinese nationals in our communities differently? This talk w
 ill explore these questions by arguing that Chinese wellbeing remains to
  be misinterpreted\, misunderstood and overlooked.\nOver the last few de
 cades\, the UK has attracted different groups of Chinese migrants and im
 migrants\, but only recently more professional and academic attention ha
 s been paid to  understanding and supporting this so called ‘one big cul
 tural group’. \nMisunderstanding and ignorance of the complexity of the 
 Chinese cultures/identities (which closely link with one’s wellness and 
 mental health) seems to be a key contributing factor to the existing ‘we
 stern’ led support and services’ mismatch with the actual needs of the C
 hinese. \nTiffany Leung\, a counselling psychologist with a research foc
 us in ‘Chinese Mental Health in an Intercultural Context’\, advocates th
 at more space and resources can constructively facilitate the Chinese’s 
 articulation of their own voices on their deeper meanings of wellness.
