I have returned to China once again. This time I am in Beijing (a city of 17 million people and everyone seems to like running around). It is 4 degrees below zero Fahrenheit and no snow. What a bummer. Chinese New Years or “the Spring Festival” as they call it is on Jan 25th. There will be huge celebrations here and I can’t wait to see them. I hope to send some amazing photos afterward.
I spent the entire day yesterday getting briefings on the very developed counseling program called “psychcn.com” Their outreach is far more advanced than I initially realized. Through their on-line training program they have taught over 30,000 students the basics of counseling. They have an elaborate training program that utilizes up to date on-line schooling methods. They run internet seminars, psychology courses, teachers training and a lot more.
The pictures I am sending come from a new magazine that was published by “Psychcn”. It highlights the work this organization has done in the past year to provide trauma and stress management services to the Chinese people affected by the earthquakes. Since it is in Chinese, I am only sending the pages that have pictures of the work I was involved in last year.
Peace,
David

David!
I’m glad to see you’re doing well! Things just haven’t been the same without your smiling face. I hope all is well, and drop a line next time you’re back in the valley.
