Celebrate Mother’s Day and 6 year of publishing


Mother’s Day Celebrations – pick a gift from CFS’ Pop-up Stall or give mum a creative experience. Get her a ticket to CFS’s Mindfulness Tote Bag Painting Workshop

Anna R. (Year 10) writes:

“Mother’s Day, celebrated in many countries around the world, has roots tracing back to ancient civilisations, where festivals honoured maternal figures and goddesses. In its modern form, the holiday emerged in the early 20th century in the United States, largely through the efforts of Anna Jarvis (1864–1948), who wanted to recognise and appreciate the tireless love and work of mothers.

Jarvis was inspired by her own mother’s wish for such a day, and in 1908, after her passing, she led the movement to establish it. Over time, Mother’s Day became a global observance, marked by cards, flowers, and acts of gratitude.

However, Jarvis later opposed the growing commercialisation of the day, feeling it had lost its original meaning. Despite this, we can still take time to reflect on why we celebrate—honouring the care, strength, and influence of mothers and women in our lives.

On 25 April, Australia and New Zealand commemorated ANZAC Day. While it is a day of remembrance and national pride, it also brings into focus ongoing issues of racial inequality. At some dawn services this year, a group of white supremacists booed during the Welcome to Country.

Indigenous Australians and Māori faced restrictive enlistment policies and discrimination, yet many served with distinction. Reflecting on these histories challenges us to recognise the broader social context in which these soldiers fought, and the continuing impact of racism today.”


Thank you, Anna, for sharing your thoughtful reflections—both on Mother’s Day and on the incidents at this year’s ANZAC Day dawn services. It takes courage to name what sits beneath such behaviours. ANZAC Day is, at its heart, about respect—honouring those who sacrificed for the common good. Holding space for these conversations, even when they feel uncomfortable, is part of that respect.

As Anna reflects on the meaning of Mother’s Day, let’s also turn to the language of flowers—so often used to express what words cannot.

In the United States, pink carnations—symbols of gratitude and appreciation—are considered the unofficial flower of Mother’s Day. Beyond the occasion, a simple bunch of pink carnations can be a heartfelt way to say “thank you” to someone who has shown care and support. Sometimes, a surprise bouquet says it best.

In Australia, the story takes on a local chapter. The tradition of gift-giving on Mother’s Day gained momentum in 1924, when Sydney resident Janet Heyden visited Newington State Hospital. There, she met elderly women—many widowed by the First World War—who had no family left to visit them. Moved by their loneliness, she began a campaign encouraging people to bring gifts and flowers to these mothers, sparking a tradition that continues today.

Chrysanthemums, or “mums,” became the flower of choice—both for their name and their seasonal abundance. Blooming in autumn, they are fresh, accessible, and perfectly timed for May. The phrase “a mum for your mum” has since become a familiar and affectionate expression.

Across Asia, chrysanthemums carry a broader symbolism of birth and rebirth, and are used in both celebrations and farewells. Their meaning shifts with colour: pink and red for love, white for devotion, and yellow for sorrow.

A New landmark report finds overseas-born Australians more likely to delay mental health support (published on 3 May 2026)

The research shows overseas-born Australians are more likely than those born in Australia to delay treatment for more than 10 years for both anxiety (57.6 per cent compared with 49.3 per cent) and mood disorders like depression (45.7 per cent compared with 37.3 per cent). Commonly reported barriers to help seeking include language barriers, low mental health literacy, negative stigma around mental health, difficulties navigating service systems and limited availability of culturally safe and responsive services. 

Reflecting on past events

CFS’s monthly e-Newsletter has now entered its seventh year:

What began as a way to stay connected with members in the early days of the first COVID lockdown has grown into a consistent online publication, with 73 issues released to date and readers reaching across the globe. I remain deeply grateful to our founding Newsletter Team—Kim, for her book reviews; Anthony, for sharing the Recipe of the Month; and Carol, for her contributions to the Subscriber’s Corner. Their early efforts helped shape what the e-Newsletter has become today.

While I have no formal training in journalism, storytelling runs in my family. My second granduncle—whom I mentioned in my article How to Connect with a Teen that Doesn’t Want to Talk—spent his many years working at a renowned Chinese newspaper in Hong Kong, and both my parents studied journalism in college. In many ways, the seed for publishing was planted early.

I’m also delighted to share some exciting news. Cambridge Scholars Publishing (UK) has offered to publish a curated collection of articles from my column “From the Desk of Bibi.” The forthcoming book, Listening at the Margins: Youth, Culture, and Mental Health in Contemporary Australia, reflects my work through the Community Flower Studio since 2019.

Reflection on Event of the Month for April – MCA Exhibition, Data Dreaming: Art and AI

With support from a small donation, CFS sponsored this special outing (including lunch at the MCA Café with one of the best views of Sydney Harbour). Even CFS members and friends attended and engaged in some thoughtful discussions—exploring questions like: Which jobs might not be replaced by AI in the next decade?

One conversation even took an unexpected and deeper turn: What is an ethnic group? This came up after I proudly shared that participants from over 25 ethnic backgrounds have joined CFS activities. It was a beautiful reminder that curiosity doesn’t just drive learning—it builds understanding. We were also delighted to welcome those joining us for the first time Phearry B (from a Thai background) and Miko (a music teacher in training whose job may not be easily replaced by AI yet).
Creativity + Curiosity + Community — this is the spirit of CFS.

Phearry shared her thoughts in the Subscriber’s Corner.

Reflection on CFS’ New “Dried Flowers in Shadow Box” Workshop

“The freedom of creation.
A calm, peaceful environment.
Understanding myself and others through sharing.”

These were the reflections from young participants (aged 14–17) after attending Dried Flowers in Shadow Box workshop.

At CFS, we often say there is no right or wrong in creating art: participants not only explored different forms of creativity, but also began to articulate their preferences, personality, and emotions through their designs. The “show and tell” segment turned out to be one of the most meaningful parts of the session. Hearing youth explain their choice of colours, textures, and layout revealed a deeper layer of self-awareness and connection with others.
Interestingly, I started the workshop with nervousness: even after running a pilot, the “fear of the unknown” still existed. Were materials feel overwhelming, or limiting? Would folding the shadow box as a mindfulness exercise resonate with participants?

What I observed was encouraging – the process of creating became a form of gentle focus and self-regulation. The space felt calm and safe.
A participant asked for feedback, unsure if her work met a certain standard of “beauty.” In a typical art setting, it might be tempting to step in and fix the design. Instead, I introduced the Elements of Design—talking about dominance (what draws the eye first), texture (how it enriches the feel), and space (allowing the eyes to move comfortably across the piece). I didn’t tell her what to do, I offered a framework. She immediately applied it, repositioning her focal flower with confidence.

This experience reminded me that while art is subjective, gentle guidance can be empowering rather than restrictive. At CFS, we aim to balance creative freedom with supportive structure. We equip participants with tools to make their own decisions.
Another participant shared that she created two shadow boxes filled with pink flowers, even though she believed she wasn’t good at art. That moment opened up a meaningful conversation. I shared a quote that resonates with me:
“You don’t have to be good at art for art to be good for you.”
Her smile said it all.

Tracy, who initiated this workshop idea, reflected on how inspiring it was to see every design turn out so differently—each one carrying its own meaning and story.
Looking back, this workshop reinforced something vital. Creative spaces like this are more than just “art activities.” They are gentle, non-clinical entry points for young people to explore identity, build confidence, and experience a sense of belonging—without pressure or judgment.

For me, I feel both relieved and grateful. Relieved that the workshop resonated. Grateful that CFS can continue to offer a space where young people can create, reflect, and connect.
This is the kind of preventative, community-based mental wellbeing support we believe in.
If you’re curious, come and experience it for yourself at our next workshop.

Flower of the Month

Hakea Laurina

By Bibi

Hakea Laurina, commonly known as the Pincushion Hakea, is a striking Australian native admired for its round, globe-like flower heads in shades of deep red with creamy white or pale pink styles. Blooming mainly from late autumn to winter, these flowers provide a valuable splash of colour when many other plants are dormant.

Care Instructions
Hakea Laurina thrives in well-drained soil and prefers a sunny position. Like many Australian natives, it is drought-tolerant once established, making it a great low-maintenance choice for gardens. Water regularly during the first growing season to help develop a strong root system, but avoid waterlogging, as it is sensitive to poor drainage.

Pruning after flowering can help maintain a compact shape and encourage more blooms in the following season. Use low-phosphorus fertilisers formulated for native plants, as high phosphorus levels can harm the roots. Hakeas are generally hardy but may benefit from protection against severe frost when young.

Fun Facts

Its woody seed pods can remain on the plant for years, opening in response to environmental triggers such as fire.

The name “pincushion” comes from the flower’s resemblance to a sewing pincushion, with long protruding styles.

It is native to Western Australia and well adapted to dry conditions. The flowers are rich in nectar, attracting birds such as honeyeaters, as well as bees and other pollinators.

With its unique form and resilience, Hakea Laurina is both a beautiful and meaningful addition to native gardens, supporting local biodiversity while showcasing the charm of Australian flora.

Plant of the Month

Ixora

By Bibi

Ixora, often called Jungle Geranium or Flame of the Woods, is a vibrant tropical shrub known for its dense clusters of small, star-shaped flowers. I was attracted by its bold colour while walking in the Willoughby neighbourhood. I captured this natural beauty with my smart phone. Blooming in shades of red, orange, pink, and yellow, Ixora creates eye-catching rounded flower heads that, at first glance, resemble miniature versions of Hydrangea. While hydrangeas have softer, pastel-toned blooms, Ixora offers a more vivid, sun-loving tropical flair.

Care Instructions
Ixora thrives in warm, humid environments and prefers a sunny to partially shaded position. It grows best in well-drained, slightly acidic soil—similar to hydrangeas, which also respond to soil conditions, though Ixora is more particular about acidity. Regular watering is important, especially during dry periods, but avoid soggy soil as this can lead to root issues.

Feeding with a balanced fertiliser designed for flowering plants will encourage continuous blooms. In cooler climates, Ixora can be grown in pots and brought indoors or protected during colder months, as it is sensitive to frost. Light pruning helps maintain its shape and promotes bushier growth.

Fun Facts

Ixora blooms almost year-round in ideal conditions, making it a favourite for adding consistent colour to gardens.

Ixora flowers grow in tight clusters, giving them their hydrangea-like “pom-pom” appearance.

It is native to tropical regions of Asia and is widely used in gardens and hedges in warm climates.

The plant has cultural significance in countries like India, where the flowers are used in religious offerings.

With its radiant colours and clustered blooms reminiscent of hydrangeas, Ixora brings a cheerful, tropical energy to any space—perfect for brightening gardens, patios, or even indoor settings in the right conditions.

For a limited time only, ‘Pregnant Onion’ is available for sale at the CFS Flower Shop.

Book Review by Bibi C.

Gut Mood Solution by Prof Gordon Parker

I first heard about faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) as a treatment for Jane Dudley while watching her story on Australian Story on ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) in July 2025. It represented a profound paradigm shift—from prescribing mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medications to restoring gut health through FMT.

Jane had lived with Bipolar I disorder for over a decade, with repeated hospital admissions to keep her safe during suicidal episodes. In her teens, Jane experienced recurrent tonsillitis and was treated with multiple courses of antibiotics. In hindsight, this may have disrupted her gut microbiome—raising important questions about the long-term impact of such treatments on mental health. At its worst, the illness was so debilitating that she spent weeks confined to a hospital bed, unable to function. She could not sustain employment or concentrate enough to pursue university studies.

After meeting her boyfriend—now husband—Alex, she experienced the unwavering support of someone determined to relieve her suffering. With his background in zoology and careful research into FMT, Alex encouraged Jane to try the procedure. The outcome was rapid and, in many ways, remarkable—Jane described feeling joy again for the first time in years.

In ‘A Gut Mood Solution’, Prof Gordon Parker’s latest book presents a thoughtful and comprehensive review of FMT as a potential treatment for bipolar disorder. He discusses six case studies—two published in medical journals, including Jane’s—and refers to these individuals as “pioneers,” each demonstrating varying degrees of remission and duration of benefit.

Importantly, Parker situates these cases within a broader and growing body of research on the gut microbiome. FMT is already an established treatment for recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection, with high success rates in restoring gut health when antibiotics fail. Beyond this, emerging evidence suggests potential applications in conditions such as Ulcerative colitis, Type 2 diabetes, and even neurological and psychiatric disorders including Depression and bipolar disorder. However, as Parker carefully emphasises, these findings remain preliminary and require validation through rigorous randomised controlled trials (RCTs).

One of the most important insights from the book is that FMT is not a “stand alone cure.” Sustaining its benefits appears to depend heavily on post-treatment lifestyle—particularly diet. In cases like Jane’s, maintaining a gut-friendly diet based on home-grown, minimally processed foods played a crucial role in prolonging the positive effects. This reinforces the idea that we are not simply treating a condition, but nurturing an ecosystem.

Eight years after her first FMT treatment, Jane returned to university and has become a passionate advocate for a paradigm shift in the treatment of bipolar disorder, sharing her lived experience across forums to raise awareness.

Community-Based Social Prescribing Approach for Youth Mental Wellbeing

By Dr Bibiana Chan

WHY IT WORKS (FOUNDATION)

Creativity | Curiosity | Community

  • Builds belonging and social identity
  • Encourages self-expression without judgment
  • Creates a safe space for connection and growth

“You don’t have to be good at art for art to be good for you.”

HOW IT WORKS (APPROACH)

Co-Creation / Co-Production

  • Young people are contributors, not consumers
  • Facilitators guide, not instruct

Emphasis on:

Ownership (leading and mentoring)

Autonomy (choice and freedom)

Voice (sharing meaning)

The CFS 3Cs Model (Creativity, Curiosity, Community)

Over the past eight years—including an 18-month “think tank” phase—the Community Flower Studio (CFS) has evolved organically. What began as a simple initiative of selling flowers to raise funds for youth creative programs has gradually developed into a three-tiered, community-based model of social prescribing. A presentation of this model was shared at the 2025 International Conference of Social Prescribing.

At its core, the CFS model can be understood through three interconnected layers—the “what” and “how” of our work:


1. Community Engagement & Mental Health Advocacy

Through pop-up stalls in public spaces and participation in cultural and health promotion events, CFS brings conversations about mental health into everyday community settings, helping to normalise and de-stigmatise these discussions.

2. Creative Workshops – By Young People, For Young People

Our workshops provide a safe and inclusive space where young people can explore creativity without judgment. Guided by the principle that “there is no right or wrong in creative arts”—while drawing on foundational concepts such as the Elements of Design—participants are encouraged to express themselves freely.

At a recent DIY Flower Bar workshop, participants were offered a rich selection of dried flowers in a full spectrum of colours—roses, hydrangeas, paper daisies, and native varieties—alongside greenery in different shapes and tones (light green, deep green, and silvery hues), as well as an assortment of nuts to add texture and interest. There were no fixed templates or expected outcomes—only an open invitation to create.

Do Machines Dream?

by Phearry B.(originally published in Medium on April 21, 2026, shared with author’s permission).

A Songkran reflection from the Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney.  Photo by author.

April 13 is Songkran — the Thai New Year. The day water is poured gently over the hands of elders as a blessing. The day we wash away what the old year carried and enter the new one clean. This Songkran, I spent the morning inside a museum asking whether machines can dream.

I was invited by Dr Bibiana Chan CF to join a gathering of young people at the Museum of Contemporary Art for Youth Week — an exhibition called Data Dreams: Art and AI. I arrived with my personal five reflection questions on paper and more curiosity than answers. What struck me most was not the technology. It was the conversation around the table. Sitting with teenagers curious about the future — thoughtful, curious, tender with each other.

Sharing ideas. Asking questions. And in between the big thoughts, moments of quiet where you could feel something softer — the need to be heard, to belong, to have a safe place to land. That is what good intergenerational connection feels like. Not teaching. Not performing. Just sitting together and letting something real happen. I found myself thinking — this is exactly what Songkran means. The old and the new, sitting together. Blessing each other forward.

What the walls said,

The exhibition asked: Do machines dream?

One wall described AI as creating a new kind of dream state — statistical rather than psychological or embodied. Artist Hito Steyerl calls these dreams without sleep. Not revealing unconscious desires or felt experience. An algorithmic reflection of the economic, cultural and technological forces shaping our present.

I stood with that for a long time.

AI reaches toward what has already been recorded. It reaches toward a rainbow because millions of rainbows exist in its data. It reaches toward an angel because humans painted angels for centuries.

But what about the wisdom that was never written down?

The knowing that passed quietly between generations in kitchens, not clinics.

The healing that has no clinical name. 

The belonging that was never entered into any system.

I kept returning to one question the exhibition didn’t answer: Whose wisdom is missing?

And what happens to the dream if it was never fed in?

The blur is not failure. 

Trevor Paglen’s paintings stopped me. A rainbow that is almost a rainbow. An angel that is almost an angel. Generated by AI — and blurred at the edges. The blur is the edge of what AI can reach. On the other side of it — lived human experience. The thing that was felt but never labelled.

The thing that stayed human because no system ever got to name it. And here is what I notice about labels. The moment you force a category onto something still becoming — you stop seeing it clearly.

That happens in AI. It happens in mental health.

The label arrives and the person disappears behind it.

The blur, in a strange way, was the most honest thing in the room.
