Acceptance with Jella Bertell

Recipe for success? Rather than list the ingredients, Vaimomatskuu blogger Jella Bertell ruminates on the demands for achievement – as well as the hunger for it – seasoned with the theme of Acceptance. Grub’s up at 8.15 am on Friday, June 2nd, CreativeMornings/Helsinki folks!

Is “making it big” the only goal worth pursuing? What about simply doing what you love, even if it’s a side dish to your main occupation? How can creativity thrive when efforts are measured in numbers – or when your inner critic seeks to stir the pot?

While known as a food blogger and photographer, teaching art students is what brings home the bread for Jella. Ambitious on each professional front and driven by all things visual, she will let you savour both the sweet and sour sides of the perfection-seeking food blogging scene.

Acceptance is a dish best served… well, I guess you’ll just have to join us at the Design Museum to find out!

Prior to breakfast and Jella’s talk, you have the option to take part in a mindfulness session led by Ling Choi, starting at 8 am, do sign up for that aswell.

Mindfullness Workshop 

2023 is nearly half way through, how has your year been? If you have wondered where time has flown by and have felt that your dreams and desires are not quite here yet–do not be discouraged–you can still create 2023 the version you want.

All these mean it is time to tune in, readjust, and focus on what really matters, including yourself. No matter which stage you are in, you are warmly welcome to join this all-rounded curation of breathing practice and reflection prompts to rejuvenate and energize your body and mind. You will bring home motivation and clarity for your next steps.

Look back to look forward.

Embark on this discovery journey and create a year that makes you smile.

What to bring: Bring along your favourite pen and notebook to dive in plus your yoga mat. A beach towel or a picnic blanket will also do. No yoga clothes are needed. Clothes you are comfortable to move and breathe in are good.
