Season of Love in Singapore

How wonderful to celebrate Chinese New Year and the Western Valentine’s Day in Singapore! For a couple of decades, I know this country of wonder. It is impressive: it keeps growing, keeps changing, like a child who never stops to learn and change. I’m so lucky to be here in this season and share my love. The streets are pretty. Food variety is plentiful. Air is happy. I’ll blend myself into this colorful world and center of Asia. I love to keep coming back to Singapore -- enjoy the bright lights and be charmed by the energy. Good morning Singapore, I admire you! Good afternoon Singapore, may this be the best year ever! Good bye Singapore, for now. I surely will come back to visit you.   Love, Hellen...

National Smiles Week: Smile – even if it is hard to do so!

Posted by on Aug 9, 2013 in Articles, In the Press | 0 comments

National Smiles Week: Smile – even if it is hard to do so!

  The 2nd week of August is National Smile Week. The benefits of smiling have long been talked about as covering all facets of a person’s life from personal success to health. A 2010 Wayne State University research project titled “Smile Intensity in Photographs Predicts Longevity” examined the baseball cards photos of Major League players in 1952. The study found that the span of a player’s smile is directly related to the span of his life. Players who didn’t smile in their pictures lived an average of only 72.9 years, while players with wide smiles lived an average of 79.9 years. A study revealed that children smile as many as 400 times a day whereas adults smile no more than 20 times a day. Marriage guru and unorthodox matchmaker Hellen Chen, recently interviewed in Los Angeles, said, “There are many ways to find reasons to smile. But people who are in love generally smile a lot more than people who are not in any relationship. Keeping up the ‘in-love’ feeling with a life partner is the best way to keep smiling.” Chen has been known as an unorthodox matchmaker for specially approaching people who do not wish to get married in the first place. She started off with friends and employees who were single and resisted marriage. “They were smart and competent in their work. But they were extremely skeptical and would even despise marriage itself due to past experience or having heard negative news of unhappy marriages.” said Chen, who has spent up to 8 years to get a person to eventually say “I do.” After marriage, Chen would coach the couples on how to stay in love forever. Even couples who have been married for over 20 years would attend Chen’s popular Love Seminar to rekindle the love sparks. “Smiling and having a positive state of mind have a large part to do with keeping a marriage happy and lasting. I have learned to smile a lot in my own marriage and with every year, my husband of 25 years and I love each other more.” said Chen, whose book ‘the Matchmaker of the Century’ has become the number one marriage book at Barnes and Noble. Chen’s theory is supported by a study done at DePauw University in Indiana. The researchers looked at people's college yearbook photos, and rated their smile intensity from 1 to 10. None of the people who fell within the top 10 percent of smile strength had divorced, while within the bottom 10 percent of smilers, almost one in four had had a marriage that ended. In the second experiment, the researchers asked people over age 65 to provide photos from their childhood. Their smile was rated once again and the researchers found that only 11 percent of the biggest smilers had been divorced, while 31 percent of the frowners had experienced a broken marriage. Overall, the results indicate that people who frown in photos are five times more likely to get a divorce than people who smile. “In schools, we have been taught there are always right and wrong answers. Exams trained us into a pattern of just follow the rules to pass exams. But in matters of the heart, there are no right or wrong answers. If you are generally more positive in your relationship, you will enjoy it and will have the relationship last longer than someone who are constantly negative.” said Chen. “And your reward for smiling despite of many reasons not to do so? The positive influence that you would have exerted in people around you would give you even more reasons to smile.” Chen smiled herself. Chen’s refreshing approach to tackling the marriage subject has been featured in over 300 media publications, TV and radio interviews, in 18 countries. She will be holding a Love Seminar in Los Angeles on Oct 12th....

Los Angeles Love Seminar a Huge Success!

Hellen Chen's Love Workshop in Los Angeles completed successfully on July 20. In this seminar, we learned about what men really want to hear from women and what women really like to hear from men. Hellen talked about how to keep the love alive forever in a marriage. Here are some amazing feedback from the participants: "I learn how to be independent in a marriage and now know how to enjoy ‘problems.’ That’s a continuing ongoing energy and creation. Such a wonderful seminar! It helps me so much!" - Ging L "What I liked about today’s seminar is that what Hellen said was the concrete truth. It was not fake. Hellen spoke what she really believed and it works!" - Michael S "I realized that I spent many years trying to solve everyone’s problems around me that I was too busy to be loved or to love." - Nick B "What I like most about today’s seminar is knowing what men and women want in their relationship. I now have an idea about where I can do better in my marriage.First of all, I have to take good care of myself, be healthy, pretty and arrange my life well. Be happy. And also have more ability to handle money, life and family. Thus there will only be good things between myself and my husband, there is only love. I now really understand why don’t date before marriage. Dating could create a lot of things that aren’t real and thus create the wrong image of love and romance and yet after marriage, you don’t do the same things. But marriage is for the whole life, if there is nothing good or if there is no love in it or don’t create love, how could people stand it? I am glad that Consultant Chen helped and taught me how to do – thus I am not broken-hearted and have a happy marriage now. Thank you!" -  Tiffany H...

How to NOT Dislike Your Mother?

How to NOT Dislike Your Mother?

How to Not Dislike Your Mother (Above: Family expert Hellen Chen addressing the topic of how to love your parents/spouse despite of who they are.) As Mother's Day comes closer, some children and mothers may feel the dread of this day – as their experience of it has had been awkward and stressful. Mother's Day is traditionally a day to celebrate the love of mothers but it could very well be a day for some sons and daughters to convey to their mother that though they would still provide her with a gift, a dinner and some flowers, they could not provide the honest love that is expected -- truth be told, they do not actually feel they could honestly like their mother. And if there are special words to express, the given Hallmark cards would 'say it perfectly' for them but if those words really are how they truly feel is a whole different question. The WikiAnswers website even has an entry on Mother's Day. Other than describing how this day was celebrated by millions around the world, the entry ended with "Mother's day is only ignored by some people who do not have good relationship with their mom for one reason or the other." So to keep up with tradition and the spirit of the special day, most daughters and sons would celebrate Mother's Day but is this simply a duty to perform? What if your mother is not all that loving or caring - in your viewpoint - would you still send her a card which tells her how wonderful she is – because it is Mother’s Day? Renowned family expert and bestselling author Hellen Chen, who has been on over 200 interviews and publications sharing relationship and family advices in America, chimed in, "Many of us have had moments where we deeply dislike our parents. Maybe our parents were too negative. Maybe they were downright mean about our accomplishments or maybe they never care." "Parents are not always right and they may not always love the child." Chen said, "Parents may feel obliged to provide for the child and the child will return the obligation when he or she gets older. But this action still does not mean there is love involved from both sides." Chen said trying to force the relationship will turn the relationship into misery for both sides. Indeed. Emilie C was a divorced mother whose only daughter had ended up in the custody of her ex-husband. Feeling that she had lost everything, she desperately wanted her daughter to feel close to her -- to the point that her daughter started hating her. After counseled by Chen, Emilie discovered some hard truths. "I actually did not love my daughter. She was the last fight I had wanted to win over my ex-husband." Emilie confessed. The road back up from the bottom was a hard long road for Emilie. Chen counseled her for about 8 years and not only she later found her confidence in a new marriage but for the first time, she has also learned how to love her child – by ceasing to fight and simply letting her daughter to be herself. From the viewpoint of a child, how does one communicate to an unchanging parent whose behavior is constantly creating rifts in the relationship? Chen smiled, "Honesty plays a big part. Another part is to act yourself and be yourself. If you insist that your parent understand you, you will end up upset and disappointed. That is not necessarily their interest – to understand you.” Many experts have advised ‘open communication’ as the best way to heal a relationship, including that between a parent and a child. However, what about the heated arguments and make-wrongs that could ensue? Chen said, "If people have bottled up their feelings too long, those outbursts are natural and they are temporary. But look, those arguments would be better than a lifetime of detachment, right? The relationship will have a chance to heal because of not keeping silent.” Chen's background has been a business...
