In Feb I opened an event on YP, #mentalhealth & the arts for @KingsCollegeLon. Here's a clip of that viscerally (!) honest opening speech, highlighting my journey as a YP & all those that supported me to discover the arts & leading me to where I am today. https://t.co/DPQgzKydoh

Happy #FlourishingFriday! This collage was created by a Yr1 #MedStudent during a #CreativeEnquiry workshop with @hughg_p . The themes of the piece: freedom of expression, flourishing, wellbeing in medicine...

[Elle Tallgren @ElleTallgren]

Today I truly feel like the core of #flourishingfriday is with me; Seems like spring has come in two days, the sun is shining and this tree on my way to the city welcomed me with a beautiful scent.

Take time to appreciate yourself and life today.
Here is me flourishing:

"Maybe we shouldn't categorise emotions into good and bad ones...when we as humans are feeling anything at all, that itself is already valuable."
The Narratives We Carry- by @ElleTallgren

(The piece can be folded open like a book to create further meaning)

[Elle Tallgren @ElleTallgren]

@danieljayregan absolutely love your creative space!🌿✨

[Elle Tallgren @ElleTallgren]

@LouiseYounie This #CreativeEnquiry session from last year is still on my mind, good to hear the kind conversations are continued... <3

[Elle Tallgren @ElleTallgren]

On this #flourishingfriday I am taking time to look back on the journey that this year has been. This photo reminds me of the Power of Now. :)
Editing my photos allows me to gain a deeper sense of self and continue on the journey of flourishing~

Having a go at sketching to creatively reflect back to my daily interactions...This one was inspired by a little brain storming with @LouiseYounie
There is life in the tree standing bare on the hill: We can flourish, even without leaves...

@LouiseYounie Thank you Louise! Glad to contribute to the conversation here:)

[Louise Younie @LouiseYounie]

Welcome to twitter @ElleTallgren Love your take on #Flourishing '....I don't have to bounce back from every hard experience like I had permanent springs under my shoes- they are not permanent and they get rusty easily....

[Elle Tallgren @ElleTallgren]

Finding ways to flourish this week by reading The Power of Now by @EckhartTolle and photographing little moments...

[Louise Younie @LouiseYounie]

A rose in my February garden trying to flower captured my wonder. has anything caught your wonder this week? this paper suggests positive emotions e.g. joy, love expand thought-action repertoire https://t.co/f1goCpxWxy @CreativeEnquiry @Flourish_Med @ElleTallgren @hand_el_ee_why

@JohnMcArts @RSPH_artshealth and the image created for me by Camille Aubry is here...the biomedical strand of this helix is thick & strong, but the human dimension strand is yet to be well articulated, developed & enabled in #MedEd A good starting point may be with vulnerable leadership and creative enquiry.
