Kintsugi Workshop

Kintsugi is the ancient Japanese practice of repairing broken pottery with gold, celebrating cracks as part of the story - not something to be hidden. In this gentle, grounding workshop, we’ll bring this philosophy into our lives through mindful creativity and guided discussion. All materials included. No experience is needed. These classes are led by Dr. Anna Yu Lee at the Pasadena Village, a community of older adults from the greater Pasadena area who have joined together to help each other navigate the challenges and opportunities of aging. Hosts can be found on socials at @PasadenaVillage @AnnaYuLeePhD @PostConventionalPsychology.

Dr. Anna Yu Lee’s education and training are in multicultural psychology, public health, and biostatistics, and her professional experience spans the fields of journalism, counseling, residential care management, health promotion, and undergraduate/graduate instruction, with contributions including the planning, delivering, and evaluation of international mental health workshops. While her academic scholarship has primarily focused on multicultural perceptions and treatment of stigmatized health behaviors, she has also produced research on human emotions, eating behaviors, obesity, substance use, cognitive health, memory, and statistical science. Dr. Yu Lee’s publications have appeared in journals of public health, social and behavioral health, and statistical education, as well as a reference text on substance and behavioral addictions published by the Cambridge University Press.
