SUMMARY:Gratitude in the Workplace: How Appreciation Drives Performance (FREE Lunch and Learn Virtual Event!)
DESCRIPTION:In this virtual one-hour talk\, we will explore the powerful effects of gratitude in the workplace and how fostering a culture of appreciation can lead to better performance and well-being. Learn how expressing gratitude enhances relationships\, increases motivation\, and creates a more positive work environment. We’ll cover practical strategies for showing appreciation to colleagues\, and how you can incorporate gratitude into your daily routine to foster connection and enhance team dynamics. \nI’m offering these lunchtime talks for free because I’ve seen the struggles of individuals\, especially clients who have difficulty attending evening events due to family\, work\, and other commitments. I believe in making personal and professional growth accessible to everyone\, regardless of their busy schedules. These lunchtime sessions are my way of giving back to the community. I’m also seeking sponsors who share these values and are committed to positively impacting people’s lives. \nThis is a free virtual talk lasting one hour. The recording will be available for 30 days to those who pre-register. Afterward\, the recording will be available for purchase\, and the slides will not be downloadable or for sale.

SUMMARY:Uncovering Eros: An Adult Sex Ed Weekend
DESCRIPTION:Feel Lost When Sex Comes Up – As a Counselor\, Parent or Partner?\nYou Are Not Alone.\nAs a professional or curious individual in Singapore\, you’ve likely noticed: \n\nClients bringing up sexual concerns you don’t feel equipped to address\nConversations about intimacy that leave you feeling awkward or uncertain\nA growing need for accurate\, culturally-relevant information about sexuality\nQuestions about consent\, trauma\, or non-traditional relationships that you can’t answer confidently\n\nYou’re not alone – and it’s not your fault. Most of us never received the education we needed. \nWhy this matters now more than ever\nIn today’s rapidly evolving landscape\, sexual literacy isn’t optional – it’s essential: \n\nDigital transformation: Singapore’s youth are exposed to unprecedented sexual content online\, often without context or accuracy\nRising mental health concerns: Sexual issues are increasingly linked to anxiety\, depression\, and relationship breakdown\nChanging family structures: More diverse relationship models require new frameworks for understanding intimacy\nPost-pandemic reconnection: Many are struggling to rebuild physical and emotional intimacy after years of isolation\nLegal and cultural shifts: Recent changes in Singapore’s legal landscape have opened new conversations around sexuality\n\nWithout proper education\, professionals and parents alike are left unprepared to navigate these complex waters. \nIntroducing Uncovering Eros\nThis is Singapore’s first-ever full-weekend\, in-person training designed specifically for counselors\, educators\, healthcare providers\, and thoughtful adults seeking deeper understanding. \nThis isn’t theoretical academics or awkward “birds and bees” talk. It’s real-world\, applicable knowledge delivered by respected experts who understand Singapore’s unique cultural context. \nAt Uncovering Eros\, you’ll learn how to: \n\n\nRespond confidently to questions about sexual health and consent \n\n\nUnderstand the emotional and physiological aspects of trauma and desire \n\n\nDiscuss kink\, fantasy\, and taboo topics without shame \n\n\nCommunicate clearly with children\, partners\, and clients \n\n\n🔑 What makes this different\n\nPractical Focus: Take away tools and frameworks you can implement immediately\nCultural Relevance: Content specifically designed for Singapore’s multicultural environment\nExpert-Led: Learn from specialists with years of clinical and educational experience\nSafe Space: Professional\, respectful environment where questions are welcomed\nComprehensive Approach: From biological aspects to emotional\, relational\, and cultural dimensions\n\n💪 For Professionals\nEnhance your practice\, expand your expertise\, and provide better support for clients navigating sexuality\, trauma\, and relationships. Earn CPE credits while building competence in an often-overlooked area of wellbeing. \nWhy professionals can’t afford to miss this: \n\nGain confidence addressing topics many colleagues avoid\nDevelop referral networks with other sexuality-informed professionals\nEnhance your ability to support diverse clients with complex needs\nDistinguish your practice with specialized knowledge\n\n🧠 For Individuals\nGain clarity about your own values and boundaries\, understand the science behind desire and connection\, and learn to communicate more effectively about intimate needs. \nWhy this weekend is valuable for personal growth: \n\nMove beyond shame and misconception to evidence-based understanding\nDevelop language to discuss intimate topics with partners and family\nConnect with a community that values sexual wellbeing and education\nBuild confidence navigating your own relationships and boundaries\n\nEssential Topics You Won’t Find Elsewhere\nDay 1 Highlights:\n\nAwesome Boundaries with Brightly Abby – In an age of constant digital connection and blurred personal spaces\, understanding boundaries has never been more crucial. Learn practical skills for setting\, communicating\, and maintaining healthy boundaries in all relationships.\nBody\, Sex\, and Religion: Faith Narratives\, Sexual Identity\, and the Role of Counselling by Tonia Goh – As Singapore balances traditional values with modern realities\, many struggle to reconcile faith and sexuality.

SUMMARY:Battle Scores – Where Wuxia Meets Music
DESCRIPTION:This October\, Ding Yi Music Company\, in collaboration with the Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre (SCCC)\, unveils Battle Scores — an action-packed concert that transforms the stage into a world where Chinese chamber music and wuxia collide. \nAudiences will be transported into a fantastical jianghu universe where five iconic Chinese instruments — the huqin (Chin Yen Choong)\, dizi\, guzheng (Yvonne Tay)\, percussion (Low Yik Hang)\, and suona (Jacky Ng) — embody the five great martial arts sects: Shaolin\, Wudang\, Emei\, Kunlun\, and Huashan. Through electrifying clashes of timbre and dramatic musical duels\, the instruments become avatars in a sweeping saga of ambition\, rivalry\, and reflection. \nFor the first time\, Ding Yi weaves shadow puppetry into its performance\, brought to life by actors Gordon Choy and Vanessa Toh\, who animate the rivalries and alliances of the martial arts world. Paired with wushu-inspired stage movements and the vitality of live Chinese chamber music\, Battle Scores boldly unites traditional art forms and cultures rarely experienced together\, creating a groundbreaking production that is both visually and musically arresting. \nHelmed by acclaimed theatremaker Chong Tze Chien\, Festival Director of the Singapore International Festival of Arts and known for his visually striking and emotionally-charged works\, the concert extends his creative partnership with Ding Yi following earlier collaborations such as The Zodiac Race (part of Esplanade’s Feed Your Imagination series). A full-length original composition by Taiwanese composer Hannah Hsieh anchors the work\, written specially to capture the energy\, tension\, and lyricism of this martial-arts-inspired musical realm. \n \n“By merging Chinese chamber music with wuxia\, we’re drawing from the very essence of Chinese culture — celebrating and reimagining it for today’s audiences\,” said Wong De Li\, Dedric\, Resident Conductor of Ding Yi Music Company. “Each instrument becomes a martial art\, each musical phrase a clash or alliance\, reminding us that in any battle\, victory or defeat matters less than the human cost of conflict. Working with director Chong Tze Chien and composer Hannah Hsieh\, we’ve created something both theatrical and deeply musical — a vivid celebration of the enduring spirit of Chinese culture.” \nBattle Scores will be held on 18 October 2025 (Saturday)\, 3.30pm and 7.30pm at SCCC Auditorium\, Level 9. Tickets are available for public sales at $35 (excluding booking fees) on SISTIC here and is eligible for purchase using SG Culture Pass credits. SAFRA\, HomeTeamNS and merewards members enjoy a 20% discount. Terms and conditions apply. \n\nImages: Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre

SUMMARY:Brainstorm
DESCRIPTION:Localised from the findings of leading neuroscientist Professor Sarah‑Jayne Blakemore who describes the adolescent brain as being “still under construction\,” particularly in regions responsible for decision‑making and social understanding\, Brainstorm is a unique theatrical investigation into how teenagers’ brains work\, and why they behave the way they do. From 16 to 26 October\, Gateway Arts will present Brainstorm at Gateway Theatre’s Black Box. This groundbreaking new production inspired by real-life experiences of Singaporean teenagers\, offers audiences a raw\, relatable look at the chaos\, humour\, and heartaches of growing up in today’s world — and it’s not just for youth\, it is also suitable for parents\, educators\, and adults who just want to enjoy and reminisce about our past fun times and angst. \nEach performance will be followed by a post-show discussion led by TOUCH Community Services\, to strengthen parent-teen communication through open conversation and shared reflections. \n \nThe Storyline: Inside the Storm of Teenage Minds\nInside every adolescent brain\, 86 billion neurons collide\, producing the intense changes that shape identity\, emotion\, and behaviour. From academic pressure and family dynamics to social media and screen-time addiction\, Brainstorm explores the modern adolescent experience\, giving audiences a chance to step into the minds of multi-racial youth in Singapore\, with varying context to their challenges. \nAn extension workshop with local teenagers helped shape Brainstorm\, creating a script rooted in real experiences in Singapore. As its reason for being\, Brainstorm aims to encourage its teenage viewers to realise that it is alright to feel all the complex feelings that they’re feeling. \nTo bring these experiences to life on stage\, the production will incorporate animated multimedia and live-streamed actor performances designed by Multimedia Designer\, Genevieve Peck. Brainstorm also injects a touch of humour\, with the characters even stepping into the roles of their nagging parents in a funny\, self-reflective scene. \nWhy watch Brainstorm?\n\nOpening Conversations that Matter – each performance is followed by a guided discussion by TOUCH Community Services\, for audiences to share reflections and access vital resources.\nTheatre as a Bridge to Understanding  – a tool for empathy\, closing the gap between young people and adults in their lives.\nReflecting Youth\, Inspiring Change – the play challenges assumptions about adolescence and reflects the realities of today’s youth\, while inspiring action\, sparking personal reflections\, prompting meaningful dialogue and encouraging communities to stand with young people.\n\nFor the latest updates\, visit https://gatewayarts.sg/portofolio/brainstorm \nDetails on the Performances\nDates & Time:\n17 Oct\, 8pm\n18 Oct\, 3pm and 8pm\n24 Oct\, 8pm\n25 Oct\, 3pm (SOLD OUT) and 8pm \nTicket Price: S$45 (excluding SISTIC booking fee)* \nVenue: Black Box\, Gateway Theatre \n*Do note that you can use your SG Culture Credits for this performance. \nTo purchase\, please go to http://www.sistic.com.sg/events/brain1025 \n\nImages: Gateway Arts

SUMMARY:Healing Heritage: A Journey Through the Evolution of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Singapore
DESCRIPTION:Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre (SCCC) presents Healing Heritage\, an exhibition that traces the story of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in Singapore from its roots in the 19th century to its role in daily life today.  \nHeld from 1 October 2025 to 22 February 2026 at SCCC’s Creative Box (Level 6)\, the exhibition invites visitors to explore how TCM has evolved over the years in Singapore\, blending tradition with innovation and staying relevant in today’s modern lifestyles. \nSupported by Singapore Chinese Physicians’ Association and Singapore Chung Hwa Medical Institution\, Healing Heritage highlights milestones in TCM’s development in Singapore\, its community impact\, and adaptations to modern society. Through interpretive displays\, historical artefacts\, interactive experiences\, and stories of medical organisations and brands\, visitors can discover how TCM has evolved while remaining true in its cultural heritage as a living tradition in Singapore. \nThe exhibition is organised into five zones\, each designed for visitors to uncover different aspects of TCM and its rich history: \nTracing the Healing Journey – Follow TCM’s development in Singapore\, from early 19th century medical halls to its recognition in today’s healthcare system. Milestones include the founding of Thong Chai Medical Institution in 1867 and the recent inclusion of acupuncture under MediSave. \nEncountering the Neighbourhood Healer – Step into a recreated medical hall with classic wooden cabinets and drawers of herbs. Learn how family-run businesses adapted to changing times\, and try an interactive herb-matching game to learn about remedies hands-on. \nBuilding Benevolence through Community – Discover the role of charitable institutions and professional organisations in supporting healthcare during epidemics and raising standards through education and research. Exhibits include traditional acupuncture needles and early journals like Medical Monthly (Yiyao Yuekan). \nTransforming Tradition through Innovation – See how TCM evolves with modern life\, from halal-certified remedies\, digital diagnostic tools and even vending machines. A canine acupuncture model in this zone shows how TCM can be adapted and applied in veterinary care. \nSustaining a Living Heritage – Experience how TCM continues to be part of everyday life\, from medicinal cuisine and herbal products to social media outreach by young TCM physicians such as THE TCM FOLKS. A conversation kiosk further invites visitors to reflect on their own encounters with TCM. \nAccording to Alvin Tan\, CEO of SCCC: “With Healing Heritage\, we hope to focus on traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) as a system of medicine and as a form of intangible cultural heritage\, and to showcase TCM’s contributions to the Chinese community and to society. We also hope to highlight TCM’s impact and use beyond the Chinese community\, and to raise public awareness of how TCM has endured\, evolved and become part of Singaporeans’ everyday life.” \nFor more details on Healing Heritage please click here. \n\nImages: Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre

SUMMARY:Rediscovering Chinese Music:  A Tribute to Singapore’s Chinese Orchestra Music Pioneers
DESCRIPTION:As part of SG60 celebrations\, Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre (SCCC) will present Rediscovering Chinese Music on 24 August 2025. First presented digitally in 2022 during the COVID-19 pandemic\, this meaningful concert will be performed live this time to commemorate the passion\, resilience\, and artistry of our pioneers in the Chinese orchestral music scene in Singapore during the 1950s to the 1970s. \nDuring a period with few resources and limited access to scores\, these early musicians displayed the spirit of perseverance and dedication through transcribing music by ear\, learning from recordings and attempting their own arrangements. The concert seeks to honour this legacy by reviving the spirit and sounds of a generation that laid the foundation of Singapore’s Chinese orchestral music scene. \nThe concert will feature three generations of Chinese orchestra musicians performing on the same stage\, including members from the 1970s iteration of the independent ensemble\, Chang Chun Chinese Orchestra\, such as Tng Kin Seng and Choo Boon Chong\, both of whom have served as principal or associate principal players with Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra; current and former members of Singapore Chinese Orchestra; as well as a new generation of outstanding young musicians. This homecoming concert with a multi-generational line-up not only embodies professional excellence\, but also symbolises the continued passing down of Chinese orchestral music from veterans to the young. \nThe concert’s repertoire will include classic works which were widely performed and beloved in that era\, including ensemble pieces\, instrumental solos and vocal performances. Audiences can look forward to nostalgic favourites such as Joyous Celebration\, Song of Joy\, Spring Water Flowing and Scenery of Guilin. Each work has been meticulously arranged or transcribed by Phoon Yew Tien\, one of Singapore’s foremost Chinese music composers and scholars. \nConcert producer Mr Phoon Yew Tien said\, “We hope that this concert will allow more people to gain a deeper understanding of the Chinese orchestral music scene in this region during the 1950s to 1970s. To recreate the experience of the past more accurately\, this concert not only strives for authenticity in performance but also deliberately emulates the programming style of Chinese orchestral concerts during that era.” \nTickets are available on SISTIC at S$20 (including GST and booking fee) from 21 July 2025 (10.00am) to 24 August 2025 (6.00pm)\, with early bird discount of 30% from 21 July 2025 (10.00am) to 28 July 2025 (11.59pm). \nFrom 29 July 2025 to 24 August 2025 (6.00pm)\, PAssion Card\, SAFRA\, HomeTeamNS\, and merewards members can also enjoy a 20% discount.
