Summary

<\/strong>The popular anime, Demon Slayer (Kimetsu no Yaiba<\/em>) takes a great deal of inspiration from the Taisho era. This is the time in Japan when some of the disruptive aspects of western culture and customs, which had entered Japan during the Meiji era, started settling down.

Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Born and raised in Japan, Sayuri came to the US at the age of 19 to study English and immerse herself in American culture. Dealing with personal health issues during her twenties in Seattle, she later came to realize the importance of nutrition on her health and happiness, and decided to pursue a degree in nutrition and dietetics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sayuri eventually became a Registered Dietitian by graduating from Bastyr University and completing a dietetic internship program through Iowa State University. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2021, she established her own private practice, Forty Love Nutrition, to empower others, especially women over 40 to be their best self through nutrition and body recomposition programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Japan is considered one of the healthiest countries in the world with a high population of centenarians. Health care costs per person are much lower than other developed countries. People in Japan, especially those living in Okinawa, maintain a happy, healthy, and active lifestyle by engaging in gardening, exercising, and getting involved in their community. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, what is the Japanese secret to longevity and happiness through nutrition?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this lecture, we will explore the traditional Japanese diet, known as Washoku, and the key nutrients and traditional cooking techniques that lead to optimal health. We will also go over how we can incorporate their happiness and health secrets to our own diet and lifestyle.

Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Puyallup Valley is a chapter of the Japanese American Citizens League, a national organization whose mission is to secure and safeguard the civil and human rights of Asian and Pacific Islander Americans and all communities who are affected by injustice and bigotry. Puyallup Valley and its members work to preserve and educate about the wartime incarceration experience.

Members working on the future Remembrance Gallery include: 

Eileen Yamada Lamphere, President of the Puyallup Valley JACL
Sharon Sobie Seymour, Project Manager
Liz Dunbar, Puyallup Valley Secretary and Fundraising Lead<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This brief presentation will highlight the history of the Japanese community in the area.  It will showcase the effects of the bombing of Pearl Harbor on the Japanese American population and the unjust imprisonment that followed with the signing of Executive Order 9066. We will share the personal experiences of the “Puyallup Assembly Center”, the largest concentration camp in the state. We will explain the violations of the civil, human, and constitutional rights of American citizens, and the lessons that must be learned so history does not repeat itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
