Wen Wei Dances
Ying Yun (英云)
A return to live performance at ArtSpring is exciting enough, but to have Vancouver’s Wen Wei Dance back on our stage after more than six years makes it even more thrilling. Sold out performances for their previous visits will tell you something about the artistic standard of the company. You won’t want to miss your chance to see the production that opens our new season - the sublime, the hypnotic Ying Yun (英云). Premiering in February 2019, the work is dedicated to artistic director Wen Wei Wang’s late mother, Ying Yun, who died of cancer in 2015. Wang found early support for his artistic yearning from his mother. She was a huge influence on a dance career that started at a young age amid the Chinese Cultural Revolution in his home city of Xi’an. Wanting to honour his mother, her life, and her spirit, Wang brought together five female dancers
to express the power, energy, and emotional control he knew in her, and finds in his experience with women. Stéphanie Cyr, Sarah Formosa, Eden Solomon, Eowynn Enquist, and Daria Mikhaylyuk are the dancers tasked with interpreting his mother’s story. The artistic process involved sharing stories about Ying Yun with the five performers, while also encouraging a connection through their own experiences. Athletic and balletic, the piece asks a lot of this striking quintet. Strength, precision, and unbelievable flexibility, this is a physically demanding piece for the women, beautifully realized. The visual elements of the production are supported by a minimalist sound design and electroacoustic score by Sammy Chien. The sounds of whispers, breathing, and ticking clocks serve as a layer which allows us to concentrate on the physical interpretation. Wang is a celebrated dancer and choreographer, first moving to Canada in 1991 to join the Judith Marcuse Dance Company, followed by Ballet BC. He has choreographed for
numerous dance companies across North America, and received many awards for both his dance and choreography, including the Isadora Award for Excellence in Choreography, and the Chrystal Dance Prize. He founded Wen Wei Dance in 2003, and is currently Associate Dance Artist of the National Arts Centre and the Artistic Director of Ballet Edmonton. Join us to celebrate the strength of women through the eyes of this visionary creative team. Thursday October 7 and Friday October 8, 7:30pm | $30 adult | $5 youth The performance is 65 minutes, with no intermission. There will be a post-show talkback with the five dancers, facilitated by our dance outreach coordinator Aina Yasué. Thank you to the sponsors of these performances, Joan Farlinger and Salt Spring Coffee. Special thanks to Made in BC Dance on Tour for supporting this presentation.

The Plot by Jean Hanff Korelitz
Mishka’s
Book
Reviews with Mishka Campbell
It takes a lot of courage to write a book that’s about a book which contains a plot so jaw-droppingly amazing that everyone is going to read it and think it’s the best book ever. As the author you now must create this “fictional” plot and have your audience believe that said plot is going to be the foundation of a bestseller…one that gets all the best reviews and is a part of Oprah’s book club and that Spielberg wants to make a movie out of…a plot that cannot lose. So, does “The Plot” succeed in its mission to not only tell us one tale but two, that of the plot itself and also of how that plot came to be, of who told its story and whose story it was to tell? And is that dang plot as good as was promised? No plot is perfect, however this was a grand, imaginative design and navigating the complex story within a story must have been a formidable challenge. Overall, I’d call it a win or “Insanely Readable” as Stephen King exclaims on the cover. Jacob Finch Bonner was once a promising young novelist but as his second novel failed to meet the bar set by his first and his third was completely turned down by his publisher, Jacob’s star isn’t just falling, it’s plummeting. Now teaching at an obscure MFA program, Jacob encounters an obnoxious student, one who is so sure of his story that he doesn’t even think he needs Jacob’s guidance as a mentor, he just wants to be put in touch with a literary agent. This student feels his plot is so perfect that he’s got a bestseller on his hands. Of course, Jacob hears this sort of thing from his admittedly mediocre students all the time…but then he hears the plot and realizes this time it’s actually true. Cut to a few years later and Jacob gets curious, wondering whatever happened to the plot that couldn’t fail, and discovers that his former student passed away shortly after their encounter. Can you imagine what comes next? Jacob is now wildly successful but lives in constant terror that the truth will be uncovered. Spoiler alert, it is. But it won’t be what you think, because a plot as good as this one is always going to come with a few big twists.
When I share that I coordinate a Sexual Assault Response Program on Salt Spring, I usually get two reactions, one being that people are shocked that sexual assault happens here, or two, they are relieved that we have this program on the island. We know that sexual assault happens here because of the quarterly report that the RCMP release on the Salt Spring Exchange. Fewer than 10% of all sexual assaults in Canada are reported, so Salt Spring’s numbers are likely greater than those just reported. So how can we, as a strong community, support our members who may be suffering from the lasting emotional, physical, psychological, economic, and spiritual impacts of sexual assault? 1. Let them lead in decision-making about their own care and support. Sexual assault is a power-based crime, so we must ensure that a sense of autonomy, power, and control are put back into the survivors’ hands. 2. Listen empathetically — without judgment. Honour their account and respect their need for confidentiality. Sexual assault can be complex; in up to 80% of cases, survivors know their assailant. Survivors should never be pressured to report or seek support. 3. Direct the survivor to resources, only if they’re ready. For some, support can look like accompaniment to appointments or to the police station to file a report. Learn what local resources are available, including IWAV’s Sexual Assault Response Program (SARP). 4. If a sexual assault occurred recently, encourage the survivor to seek medical support at Lady Minto Hospital. A forensic nurse specially trained to support sexual assault survivors is available. She’ll check for injuries and provide medical support. She may collect evidence that can be stored up to a year, if the survivor chooses. Police will become involved only if the survivor asks to make a police report. 5. Research. There are many misconceptions about sexual assault, which is why many people choose not to report to police or seek support. 6. Don’t victim blame. Sexual assault is never the survivor’s fault. 7. Be patient. People who experience a sexual assault are not forever broken or damaged, with time and support, it’s possible to recover. As community members, IWAV’s Sexual Assault Response Team are here to support, answer questions, offer resources, and perhaps, most importantly, to listen. SARP includes emergency response, accompaniments, emotional and practical support, and free counselling.

the
Sweet Spot
with Seth Shugar
Adversity as a Doorway to Awakening A lot of attention has been drawn to the pandemic as a “collective trauma.” A lot less attention has been given to what researchers call “post-traumatic growth,” the positive long-term changes people often experience in the aftermath of adversity. Richard Tedeschi and Lawrence Calhoun, two of the pioneering researchers in this area, have identified seven common areas of growth after trauma: Deeper appreciation of life; Closer relationships; Greater compassion and altruism; A new sense of meaning or life-purpose; Increased confidence and inner strength; Accelerated spiritual development; Creative growth. But what exactly does the research suggest we need to do to grow in these ways? 1) Discharge Thwarted Survival Reponses: Based on the work of Stephen Porges, Peter Levine, Bessel van der Kolk and others we know that if our fight-or-flight responses to real or perceived threats get thwarted, our “immobility” or freeze response kicks in and all the powerful fight-or-flight energies produced by our nervous systems – e.g. stress hormones like cortisol and norepinephrine – get trapped inside our bodies, leaving us in state of hyperarousal. To heal, we need to discharge these pent-up energies, first by getting grounded and centered (e.g. with breathing, movement and visualization exercises) and then by completing our blocked survival responses (e.g. by shaking, expressing healthy aggression, running) so that our nervous systems can return to a calm resting state. 2) Engage in Positive Rumination. What researchers call “deliberate” or “positive” rumination involves actively reflecting on how a traumatic event has impacted one, what it means, and how one intends to live going forward. In her study of patients with acute leukemia, Suzanne Danhauer found deliberate rumination to be the single greatest predictor of growth. Another study by Todd Kashdan revealed that trauma-survivors who experienced the greatest distress also experienced the greatest growth, but only if they were willing to experience the unpleasant feelings, sensations and thoughts that inevitably arise while deliberately ruminating. 3) Seek Out Social Support. Trevor Powell’s 2012 study of survivors of traumatic brain injuries 11 and 13 years after their accidents showed that those who had the strongest social support reported the most growth (sometimes 50% more than others). It also revealed that the most effective type of support comes from individuals who have

Poetry of Harvest and Thanksgiving Online on Zoom 7pm to 8:30pm
Autumn heralds a time to gather in the bounty of the harvest from farms and gardens. It is a time of grateful thanksgiving, which
endured similar experiences. A 2008 review of studies about people using online support groups also found that participants reported greater well-being, self-confidence and control, partly because they had encountered growth role models. 4) Express Yourself: A 2003 study of breast cancer survivors found a strong correlation between increased emotional expression and growth. It also revealed that those who did not express their emotions experienced less or no growth. Another researcher found that victims of violent sexual assault who keep the event secret are significantly more likely to have adverse health problems, while a different study found that concealing a traumatic event from a strong social network leads to more dysfunction than having no social network at all. 5) Look for the Positive: Jane Shakespeare-Finch’s research on the survivors of the 2009 bush fires in Australia that killed 173 people found that the more survivors focused on what they had maintained or gained – e.g. that their children had survived or their sense of community had grown – the better they fared. Similarly, Sharon Manne research on cancer patients at Rutgers has found the inclination to find some positive meaning in adversity to be the single-most reliable predictor of growth. James Penny Baker’s research on expressive writing has shown that those individuals whose writing combines a realistic acceptance of struggle with a hope for something better experience the greatest health benefits. Perhaps most heartening of all, more and more of the world’s leading trauma-researchers have begun to acknowledge what virtually every wisdom tradition in the world has long recognized – that healing from adversity can not only be a spur for growth but, as Peter Levine puts it, “a catalyst for profound awakening.” Seth is a Registered Clinical Counsellor, Marital and Family Therapist and Board Certified Life Coach.

is celebrated in all cultures and religious traditions. “Thanksgiving” falls under a category of festivals that spans cultures, continents and millennia. In ancient times, the Egyptians, Greeks and Romans feasted and paid tribute to their gods after the fall harvest. North American “Thanksgiving” also bears a resemblance to the ancient Jewish harvest festival of Sukkot, and the Christian festival of “Harvest Thanksgiving”. Importantly historians have noted that Native Americans had a rich tradition of commemorating the fall harvest with feasting and merrymaking long before Europeans set foot on their shores. May the expressive beauty and amazing variety of fruits and vegetables, stir your heart and fill you with awe, as you find ways to celebrate and give thanks. We will also do this together for our poetry evening on October 12th. You are welcome to bring a poem (or two) to read that expresses something of this theme or just to listen to poems brought by others and share your response.

Jen’ll Tell Ya Featuring Jen Redpath & Jessica Terezakis
What’s Happening
on the Rock
October Live Entertainment Sensitive Content Article. This article openly discusses topics of a sexual nature and may contain more explicit content than some are comfortable with. May not be suitable for readers under 18. Hey Salty, you asked, so we’ll tell! Here are some questions that we got in! *Names have been changed to respect confidentiality. Dear Jen and Jess, My partner really wants to try anal sex but I am feeling a bit nervous because I have never tried it before. I heard it can get messy and also really hurt? - S. Hi S, It is really normal to feel nervous before trying something new, especially if it’s sexual! For some folks, anal is a wonderful and fulfilling part of their sex life. With anal sex, and any sex for that matter, communication is key! We encourage you to share your concerns with your partner, take it slow, and if you don’t end up liking it, that is okay too! Sex should always be mutually beneficial and pleasurable. If a certain kind of sex doesn’t work for you, there are lots of other fun things to try and explore! To answer your question, first off, when done properly with lots of lube (we recommend a waterbase one like KY jelly), communication, and going slowly, anal sex shouldn’t be really painful. For some people, there might be some initial pressure with anal sex, but If anything ever hurts during sex, stop! It’s your body’s way of telling you that maybe it doesn’t like it. Remember, your body needs time to adjust and relax, so before going straight to it, try starting with a finger or a sex toy designed for anal sex and see how you feel! You might also need to adjust speed, angle, or depth. Anal tissue is very delicate, it doesn’t self lubricate like other parts of the body like the mouth or vagina, that is why it is especially important to use lots of lube. It is also why it’s also really important, to use a condom when having anal sex - it can be more risky for STI’s and bacterial infections because of the nature of the area. Secondly, having some fecal matter show up during or after anal sex is really normal. Some people choose to douche a couple of hours before they know they are going to have anal sex. Like we said, use a condom! Not only for safe sex practices but also if you are squeemish about bodily fluids. If you have any burning questions, please email us at opt. ssi@gmail.com! If it’s more than questions that are burning please come visit us every Tuesday from 4:30-6:30 That's all folks -
