An Evening with Clarissa Wei - author of Sitting the Month

Join us for an evening with author, and co-owner of HEYDOH, Clarissa Wei, as she discusses her inspiration for writing Sitting the Month. The talk will be moderated by friend of the shop, and fellow cookbook author, Erin Alderson. When Clarissa Wei gave birth to her first child in Taiwan, she found herself immersed in a centuries-old tradition: zuò yuèzi, or sitting the month. Four weeks of rest, healing, and deeply intentional eating rooted in traditional Chinese medicine. There isn't much written about this practice in the English-speaking world, so she set out to change that. Event is September 17th from 6:30pm - 8:00pm. Ticket price includes a copy of Sitting the Month.
