Happy Dragon's Boat Festival from Taiwan! Today on The Taiwan Take podcast, my conversation with Mimi Yu 尤虹文 on classical music, mental health, and healing from depression: ghostisland.media/zh/shows/taiwa…

Mimi Yu Mimi Yu 尤虹文 (尤虹文) is the author of three memoirs, including the 2019 title “The Unforgetting Body” in which she details her recovery from depression. Thank you for your sharing, Mimi. Everyone on the team really loved the episode!

Yu is a cellist who's worked with Itzhak Perlman, Yo-Yo Ma, Paul Katz, and Robert Levin. She played cello while at The Juilliard School and has a B.A. in economics from Harvard University. Born in Kaohsiung, Mimi Yu went to the U.S. at age 15 to study at the Cleveland Cleveland Institute of Music.

In her mid-twenties, Yu was impacted by depression and had to stop performing. We discuss her path to healing; finding Buddhism, Taosim, the importance of eating well and listening to your body, trailing spouses. She’s now a public speaker and coach on mental wellness.

“There’s a beauty in every person we meet, and when they come to me, there must be a reason, and I am just here to support and to love, and sometimes that love awakens the deep love they have for themselves inside. And when that happens, then healing happens.” - Mimi Yu 尤虹文
