| Valerie A. Fitzhugh, MD @DrFNA @womeninmedchat A1: For me, wellness is the ability to do all the things OUTSIDE OF MEDICINE that give me life meaning and balance #ThoseCapsWereIntentional #WomenInMedicine |

| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @womeninmedchat A1: There are different dimensions of wellness - including physical, emotional, occupational, intellectual, financial, environmental, and social. Wellness to me means optimizing the dimensions to the best of our ability. #WomenInMedicine https://t.co/mYEsBZp6fw |

| Briana Christophers, PhD @BriChristophers @womeninmedchat A1. Wellness is being able to keep all of the different parts of yourself full in some way #WomenInMedicine |
| Nikita Gill, MD @NikitaGillMD RT @DrKanikaMonga: @womeninmedchat A1: @womeninmedchat A1: There are different dimensions of wellness - including physical, emotional, occupational, intellectual, financial, environmental, and social.

| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @gjkwon @womeninmedchat I really like how you've nailed what wellness means to you. I realize it is so unique to who we are :) I've realized that step one is figuring out what it means to us.. #WomenInMedicine |
 | Shannon Scott-Vernaglia, MD @ScottVernaglia @womeninmedchat #WomeninMedicine Wellness for me means integration--That I can see the aspects of work and fun and family, etc woven together into a tapestry rather than standing alone with one part drowning out another. |
 | Pooja Lakshmin MD @PoojaLakshmin @womeninmedchat It can mean psychotherapy, excercise, eating well. And sometimes it can mean binging on Netflix! Wellness means being kind to myself. Being gentle. I think of it as an ongoing practice. #WomeninMedicine |
 | Otter Cat, DO (she/her) @Dr_Jaded @womeninmedchat A1: Think there is physical, mental and spiritual wellness sides - supporting all three is the goal #WomenInMedicine |
| Susan Hingle @SusanHingle @womeninmedchat A1: #WomenInMedicine #Wellness https://t.co/B0UUM3A8Es |
| Briana Christophers, PhD @BriChristophers @ClinicalPearl I like that fulfillment is part of your answer 😊 #WomenInMedicine |
 | Lee Engelbreth MD @EngelbrethL @womeninmedchat Taking care of my mind, my body, and my soul. #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @SusanHingle @womeninmedchat Thanks for sharing this! So many great ways to achieve wellness #WomenInMedicine |
| Priyanka V. Chugh, MD, MS @AntiWheatGirl @womeninmedchat A1 Wellness to me is being able to take care of myself and find fulfillment. And that requires time and resources that many of us in medicine feel we have to give up for this career #WomenInMedicine |
| Valerie A. Fitzhugh, MD @DrFNA RT @DrFNA: @womeninmedchat A1: @womeninmedchat A1: For me, wellness is the ability to do all the things OUTSIDE OF MEDICINE that give me life meaning and balance #ThoseCapsWereIntentional #WomenInMedicine |
 | Indu Partha, MD FACP @InduPartha @womeninmedchat @petradMD @DrKanikaMonga @rheum_cat Hello! Late check in..just got back from Endgame! Indu from Tucson! Howdy! #WomenInMedicine |
| Ruth Habte, MD @ruthmhabte @womeninmedchat A1. I see wellness as being directly related to how balanced I feel. I feel the most well when I’m able to balance my time between school/studies, family, friends, and exercise. #WomenInMedicine |
| Priyanka V. Chugh, MD, MS @AntiWheatGirl @DrFNA @womeninmedchat @petradMD @DrKanikaMonga @rheum_cat That sounds like some wellness building to me! #WomenInMedicine |
| meshmd @msmemesha RT @DrKanikaMonga: @womeninmedchat A1: @womeninmedchat A1: There are different dimensions of wellness - including physical, emotional, occupational, intellectual, financial, environmental, and social.

| Valerie A. Fitzhugh, MD @DrFNA @AntiWheatGirl @womeninmedchat @petradMD @DrKanikaMonga @rheum_cat Absolutely. It also keeps the mosquitoes away! #WomenInMedicine |
 | Renee Dversdal @DRsonosRD @womeninmedchat Intro: Renee Dversdal, hospitalist, educator & lifter from Oregon. A1: Wellness to me means being in a mental space where I have the emotional energy to care for my family, my work/patients, myself and others w/o feeling like I'm running the "tank" dry. #WomenInMedicine |
| Briana Christophers, PhD @BriChristophers @DrKaylaB @womeninmedchat So real! Doctors are humans too #WomenInMedicine |
 | Grace Oliver, MD @GraceOliverMD @womeninmedchat A1 Hi running late 😅 To me, wellness is having the space to do what meets my values and fuels a passion somehow. Plus room for nurturing relationships. Whether work or my spare time is meeting those needs, it’s gotta happen! #Womeninmedicine |
| Pooja Lakshmin MD @PoojaLakshmin @BriChristophers @womeninmedchat Agree! And I love how you specified all the parts of yourself. Each part of our identity requires different things at different times to stay full... #womeninmedicine |
| Indu Partha, MD FACP @InduPartha @womeninmedchat A1: Wellness means peace of mind and strength of body, contentment of spirit. #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @Doctorkuch @womeninmedchat I have such a hard time finding balance. When one aspect seems well balanced -- sometimes another part is struggling. Any tips? #WomenInMedicine |
| Shannon Scott-Vernaglia, MD @ScottVernaglia Q1 #WomenInMedicine Wellness: Spending a week in my garden, with dirt under my fingernails and sun on my shoulders |
| Valerie A. Fitzhugh, MD @DrFNA @DRsonosRD @womeninmedchat Hi Renee! #WomenInMedicine |
 | ⋆ 🎀 𝒟𝓇𝑒𝒶 🎀 ⋆ is seeing SKZ at lolla @stillastraydrea @womeninmedchat @petradMD @DrKanikaMonga @rheum_cat Hello! Andrea here, rising OMS-I and mom to 3 boys (4,4, and 2 months) I'm hoping will fall asleep soon! #WomenInMedicine |
| Melina Flanagan, MD, MSPH @MBDFlanaganMD @womeninmedchat A1: #wellness is having the time outside of and away from work to do the things that are meaningful to you. Yoga studios at work are nice, but that’s not wellness. #womeninmedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @ShreyaTrivediMD @womeninmedchat Consistent is the key word. I struggle with this. #WomenInMedicine |
 | (Legal)Drug Dealer Barbie @drvnessc #WomenInMedicine Love this |
| Briana Christophers, PhD @BriChristophers @you2nice2me @womeninmedchat Eunice is participating in #WomenInMedicine tonight 😍 |
 | Poorva Bindal, MD @PoorvaBindal @womeninmedchat A1: Wellness is to be able to focus on my own physical and mental wellbeing as I do for my patients. It took me two years to establish primary care after starting residency. Now I know that I can best care for my patients if I first take care of myself! #WomenInMedicine |
 | Kelly @neurokelly @womeninmedchat A1: "If we are to heal medical education, we might start by affirming what wellness is not. Wellness is not a yoga class, or a coffee cart or a meditation practice. To be well is not such low-hanging fruit." #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @msmemesha @womeninmedchat yes, finding the balance is difficult #WomenInMedicine |
| Briana Christophers, PhD @BriChristophers @MGraceOliver @womeninmedchat Who gave you permission to be in my brain 😛 But yes, ditto to this #WomenInMedicine |
 | philippe @philipp57289196 RT @womeninmedchat: Feel free to keep introducing yourselves while we get started with Q1: Feel free to keep introducing yourselves while we get started with Q1: What does wellness mean to you? #WomenInMedicine https://t.co/A6BMWKQi5s |
| ⋆ 🎀 𝒟𝓇𝑒𝒶 🎀 ⋆ is seeing SKZ at lolla @stillastraydrea @womeninmedchat A1: Wellness is making sure I'm caring for myself even in the craziness that is motherhood and school. Reading a book, writing, playing with my sons, spending time with my husband... Doing things I enjoy to keep myself sane! #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @NatsforDocs @womeninmedchat being aware that it's our own choices, and our own capacity is so empowering #WomenInMedicine |
| Indu Partha, MD FACP @InduPartha @DrKanikaMonga @Doctorkuch @womeninmedchat I think that is the way of life! I can’t imagine a solution. #WomenInMedicine |
 | Dr Sarah Nadeem @SarahNadeemMD @womeninmedchat @petradMD @DrKanikaMonga @rheum_cat Hello! Sarah Nadeem, Endocrinologist, assistant professor at Aga Khan University Hospital in Pakistan-preciously at Loyola University Hospital, Chicago. Moved back ‘home’ to Pakistan after 15y in the US to be closer to family, #womeninmedicine |
| Priyanka V. Chugh, MD, MS @AntiWheatGirl @neurokelly @womeninmedchat So so true. As much as I love a free lunch or to play with puppies, that doesn’t change the fact that I don’t have time to go see my doctor or to see my family and rest #WomenInMedicine |
| #WomenInMedicine Chat @womeninmedchat Fantastic ideas everyone! Now it's time for Q2: How do you approach wellness? Do you schedule "wellness time" for yourself? #WomenInMedicine https://t.co/NIYmSS5DBh |
| Shannon Scott-Vernaglia, MD @ScottVernaglia RT @neurokelly: @womeninmedchat A1: @womeninmedchat A1: "If we are to heal medical education, we might start by affirming what wellness is not. Wellness is not a yoga class, or a coffee cart or a meditation practice. To be well is not such low-hanging fruit." #WomenInMedicine |
| Mark Shapiro, MD @ETSshow @DrKanikaMonga @Doctorkuch @womeninmedchat Our lives are a teeter-totter. Difficult to keep balance, can swing one way or other fast & w/o notice. Embrace this kinetic life, pay attention to which way things swing, adjust in small, thoughtful, sustainable steps. It’s hard. I’m not good at it. Yet. #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @DrFNA @womeninmedchat I find that having outside of medicine helps keep me excited to go back to all things medicine -- and vice versa #WomenInMedicine |
 | Tatiane Cantarelli, MD @tatcantarelli @womeninmedchat A1: It’s not a static condition... it’s a dynamic balance that makes you achieve a fulfillment life #WomenInMedicine |
| Grace Oliver, MD @GraceOliverMD @BriChristophers @womeninmedchat #Womeninmedicine https://t.co/7gyl44gOCc |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @DrKaylaB @womeninmedchat That's so true. Practicing what we preach :) #WomenInMedicine |

| Marie Kuchynski MD @Doctorkuch @DrKanikaMonga @womeninmedchat Wish I knew ...I struggle too When work gets overwhelming, I do try to step back, process it and try to find time with someone or something that brings me joy and it re-grounds me to start anew #WomenInMedicine |

 | Anita Afzali MD, MPH, MHCM, FACG, AGAF @IBD_Afzali @womeninmedchat @petradMD @DrKanikaMonga @rheum_cat Hi all, I'm a Gastroenterologist and IBDologist and happy to be here! #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @womeninmedchat A2: I don't prioritize wellness enough. When I'm busy (and perhaps need wellness the most) wellness goes to the bottom of my priority list. How do you all maintain "wellness" despite fluctuations in our schedules? #WomenInMedicine |
| Priyanka V. Chugh, MD, MS @AntiWheatGirl @womeninmedchat A2 I really do my best to “turn off” from medicine/school when I’m at home. I treated med school like a job- work until a certain time & go home. It didn’t always work but the intention helped to build more time to relax and recharge with my partner and family #WomenInMedicine |
| Valerie A. Fitzhugh, MD @DrFNA @DrKanikaMonga @womeninmedchat So true! #WomenInMedicine |
| meshmd @msmemesha @womeninmedchat A2: I realized my open availability was literally killing my wellness - every time slot got filled with a meeting. I now take time to go over my calendar and blocks time slots to spend with my kids, exercise or have a “me” day. We will see if it works! #WomeninMedicine |
 | Carrie Bernard MD she/her @carriedbernard @womeninmedchat A2 I DO schedule wellness time. Unfortunately, I don't always stick to the schedule #WomenInMedicine |
| Roxana Daneshjou MD/PhD @RoxanaDaneshjou @womeninmedchat Q1: To me, wellness means having a well-rounded life - spending time with family, exercise, hobbies outside medicine. #womeninmedicine |
| Valerie A. Fitzhugh, MD @DrFNA @womeninmedchat A2: I make it a point to schedule time for wellness. It is so important to me that I make it happen. No regrets here. #WomenInMedicine |
| Susan Hingle @SusanHingle @womeninmedchat A2: #WomeninMedicine #Wellness https://t.co/ETMF87asht |
| Mark Shapiro, MD @ETSshow @womeninmedchat @MGraceOliver is here. I refer to a resource she created frequently. I also invite her to share it on a prn basis #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @AntiWheatGirl @womeninmedchat I need to get better at that because building your home as a place to relax and recharge would (be a fairly low maintenance way) to do wonders #WomenInMedicine |
| Shreya P. Trivedi MD, MHPE @ShreyaTrivediMD @womeninmedchat A2. Its a constant self-check with myself. Medicine can easily infiltrate all corners of our lives (esp with the fact we often have to work harder) I find things go array when I dont have a good sense on that thermometer of needs #WomeninMedicine |
| Briana Christophers, PhD @BriChristophers @womeninmedchat A2. I schedule time to go to talks & events that I will enjoy. As far as wellness on the day to day, I try to listen to my body: take a break, drink tea, take a nap, talk to a friend, or go to bed if I need it. Not sure what I will do during clerkships though... #WomenInMedicine |
| Emily Shaffer, DO @DrMissWV A1: I conceptualize “wellness” as the state of being a whole, functional, aware, & multidimensional person who keeps each of those parts of her soul well fed & attended to. Physically, mentally, emotionally, creatively, intellectually, spiritually. #WomenInMedicine |
| Priyanka V. Chugh, MD, MS @AntiWheatGirl @DrKanikaMonga @womeninmedchat It’s really worked well so far. We’ll see how it goes as I transition to residency! #WomenInMedicine |
| Marie Kuchynski MD @Doctorkuch @womeninmedchat A2. I try to make sure my weekends when I am not on call are spent with family and friends. Day to day, I start my day in prayer and end my day with 5 minute meditation. I love the Calm app for this #WomeninMedicine |
| Susan Hingle @SusanHingle @womeninmedchat A2: I include wellness goals on my annual goal setting #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @Doctorkuch @womeninmedchat @petradMD @rheum_cat Welcome :) #WomenInMedicine |
| Dr. Kayla @DrKaylaB @womeninmedchat A2: I try to, but I'm nearing the end of a rigorous year and suspect I may have more time to do this next year. Definitely taking steps in that direction, such as shortening my commute to work considerably. #WomenInMedicine |
| Grace Oliver, MD @GraceOliverMD @womeninmedchat A2 My #1 wellness move is to always be checking in with myself about what aligns with my values. I made this graphic for @sheMDTweets, but I know @ETSshow is a big fan 👀 This helps me avoid disasters, but I also listen to my body for when I need a break #womeninmedicine https://t.co/eZtkpqlZxa |
| Renee Dversdal @DRsonosRD @womeninmedchat A2: Used to think I was terrible at this & let everything creep, working, gym, etc. But learning something new, getting body moving, those things all promote wellness too. So now I try to make sure I have SOME form of wellness-promoting activity & recognize it QD #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @nikitagill_ @womeninmedchat @petradMD @rheum_cat So glad to have you here :) :) #WomenInMedicine |

| Priyanka V. Chugh, MD, MS @AntiWheatGirl @you2nice2me @womeninmedchat YES. I’m a boxer (have yet to try kickboxing) but that helps me quite a bit 😊 #WomenInMedicine |
| (Legal)Drug Dealer Barbie @drvnessc @womeninmedchat A2. Scheduling barre classes & putting them on my calendar in pink so it’s an appointment to take care of myself that I can look forward too.I’ve also started getting manicures every few weeks-there’s something nice about feeling a little put together every day. #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @IreneTienMD @womeninmedchat @petradMD @rheum_cat Welcome :) #WomenInMedicine |
| Shreya P. Trivedi MD, MHPE @ShreyaTrivediMD @womeninmedchat A2. I had a good things going for a few months when every morning, I had a non-negotiable deal with myself to go to the gym 1st thing in the AM. It was like sending a msg to me for the rest of the day that 'i choose my health/wellness' #WomeninMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @InduPartha @womeninmedchat @petradMD @rheum_cat Thank you for joining :) #WomenInMedicine |
| Otter Cat, DO (she/her) @Dr_Jaded @womeninmedchat A2 I clock out of work, literally and try to remember if I take a mental health day its helping to ensure my patients have me for years - not just this day #womeninmedicine Schedule team/group activities for the physical side and spiritual |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @empathsupreme @womeninmedchat @petradMD @rheum_cat Happy birthday to the twins!!! Woo. Thank you for joining #WomenInMedicine |
| Susan Hingle @SusanHingle @womeninmedchat A2: I color code my calendar and wellness activities have their own color. I make sure to have some each week. #WomenInMedicine #Wellness |
| Indu Partha, MD FACP @InduPartha @womeninmedchat Much better at mental wellness. Working in self-improvement, making sure I remember all I’ve been given, choosing to stay positive & hopeful, making sure to care for my marriage & family. (2/2) #WomenInMedicine |
| Grace Oliver, MD @GraceOliverMD @BriChristophers @womeninmedchat Same things 💕 it’s possible, I promise #womeninmedicine |
 | Paneez Khoury, MD (she/her) @KhouryMD @womeninmedchat A2: Schedule beach time. Nuff said! #WomenInMedicine |
| Roxana Daneshjou MD/PhD @RoxanaDaneshjou @womeninmedchat What’s interesting to me is that most “wellness” initiatives miss the mark - they require “resilience” training or a yoga class when what is needed is broader systemic change and more time for people to recharge. #womeninmedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @FutureDOctorD @womeninmedchat @petradMD @rheum_cat Welcome!! #WomenInMedicine |
 | Priya Kantesaria, MD @pskantesaria @womeninmedchat A1: Wellness to me is not just confined to"non-working" time. You should be empowered and excited in your own space. Wellness should be incorporated in everything from your work community to your free time! #womeninmedicine |
| Renee Dversdal @DRsonosRD @you2nice2me @womeninmedchat So true. I have major ups & downs in performance a/w sleep, travel, diet, working too long, etc. I am really just trying to focus on the journey & better than nothing aspect, rather than the end goal. Has helped a lot! #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @SarahNadeemMD @womeninmedchat @petradMD @rheum_cat Thank you for joining :) #WomenInMedicine |
| Mays Ali MD @MaysAliMD @womeninmedchat A2. I find ways to practice self-care at work - even if I'm at my desk or running around putting out fires. Sometimes it's simply grabbing a latte from my favorite coffee shop in the hospital or stopping by for a quick hello with some of my favorite nurses. #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @MaysAliMD @womeninmedchat @petradMD @rheum_cat hello! #WomenInMedicine |
| Priyanka V. Chugh, MD, MS @AntiWheatGirl @rheum_cat @womeninmedchat I think part of what made it work for me is that I get easily distracted at home. Once I realized I was more efficient elsewhere, it made it easier for me to get things done quickly and go home #WomenInMedicine |
| Melanie Bechard @bechardmel @womeninmedchat Honestly I just need sleep and food and I'm fine. Doesn't matter how much yoga or running or meditation I do while on 36+ hours of wakefulness. Let's just create work environments and schedules that allow for the most basic of human needs. #womeninmedicine |
 | R Logan Jones, MD FACP @rloganjonesmd @womeninmedchat Logan, PGY2 In IM in orgeon. A1: wellness = having time, energy, passion for what I do. Being a doc is my #1 identifier, but I’m also a cook, outdoors enthusiast, partner, friend, and dancer. Wellness means being greater than the sum of these parts. #womeninmedicine |
| Indu Partha, MD FACP @InduPartha @DrKanikaMonga @womeninmedchat My problem as well. I do great, then I’ll be on service or hubby will travel and I’ll be single momming it, or .... I should be better at flexing w the what ifs #WomenInMedicine |
| Dr. Kayla @DrKaylaB @RoxanaDaneshjou @womeninmedchat Right! And don't get me started on more mandatory training to enforce wellness, which has the exact opposite affect. #WomenInMedicine |
| Grace Oliver, MD @GraceOliverMD @KhouryMD @womeninmedchat *cries in Midwestern* #womeninmedicine |
| Mark Shapiro, MD @ETSshow @MGraceOliver @womeninmedchat @sheMDTweets This is a superb tool and highly recommended! #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @MParshleyMD @womeninmedchat Welcome to the chat! I am really enjoying everyone's definitions of wellness. Thank you for sharing #WomenInMedicine |
| Pooja Lakshmin MD @PoojaLakshmin @womeninmedchat A2. My biggest priority here is saying No. When I’m saying no and setting good boundaries, it’s much easier to do the things I need to take care of myself. #WomenInMedicine |
| Monia Werlang, MD @MoniaWerlangMD @womeninmedchat A2: I don’t schedule it, and therefore do not prioritize! Probably a reflex of my belief/perception of my very little control over my calendar! #WomeninMedicine |
| Marie Kuchynski MD @Doctorkuch @DrKanikaMonga @womeninmedchat Has to be scheduled into your day. There is great satisfaction to checking off a to-do list item. (Helps the mental state) #WomeninMedicine |
| Mark Shapiro, MD @ETSshow @MGraceOliver @womeninmedchat Ha! Love it! #WomenInMedicine |
| ⋆ 🎀 𝒟𝓇𝑒𝒶 🎀 ⋆ is seeing SKZ at lolla @stillastraydrea @womeninmedchat A2: Yes! If I don't schedule it, I don't do it. Around 8 I tell everyone that it's my time to work out. It's been working well for the past 2 weeks. A small 1st step I hope to continue when school starts. #WomenInMedicine |
| Pooja Lakshmin MD @PoojaLakshmin @womeninmedchat A2. You can’t do wellness without saying No. Its just not possible. If you don’t say no and set boundaries, that’s when the self care list becomes a chore and a burden. #womeninmedicine |
| Mark Shapiro, MD @ETSshow @rheum_cat @MGraceOliver @womeninmedchat @sheMDTweets Hard co-sign! I took it to mean: if I make an appointment with/for myself, I keep that appointment! Getting better at that commitment #WomeninMedicine |
| Poorva Bindal, MD @PoorvaBindal @womeninmedchat A2: I have recently started prioritising and DOING things that I love or need to do for self care. Medicine permeates all aspects of our lives and is hard to turn off but I am now learning to swing the work-life pendulum on demand. #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @meggerber @womeninmedchat omg, painting class -- would love to do something like that. I've always wanted to but never taken the step forward #WomenInMedicine |
| Ruth Habte, MD @ruthmhabte @womeninmedchat A2. I’ve tried setting goals for myself like reach out to one non-med friend a week, take walk/active breaks while studying, do a few things I enjoy outside of school each week, etc. When I get super busy though, I usually fall short 🤷🏾♀️ #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @bechardmel @womeninmedchat I hear you. The basic needs are the first step forward #WomenInMedicine |
| Otter Cat, DO (she/her) @Dr_Jaded @womeninmedchat A2: Anyone else going to therapy? #mentalwellness #womeninmedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @SusanHingle @womeninmedchat Such a great idea!! I'm going to do this. Maybe a different color for the different dimensions of wellness #WomenInMedicine |
| #WomenInMedicine Chat @womeninmedchat Thank you for sharing everybody! Now it's time for Q3: What sorts of wellness activities do you engage in(at work, or outside work)? If you don't, what are you interested in engaging in? #WomenInMedicine https://t.co/HFsvtbjX1B |
| Emily Shaffer, DO @DrMissWV A2: I think #wellness is so hard to consistently “achieve” bc it’s a moving target- and our needs are evolving day2day & hour2hour. My major moves towards ⬆️ wellness this past year has been to freq & deliberately check in & figure out what I need in that moment #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @MoniaWerlangMD @womeninmedchat same -- I only get around to scheduling gym sessions but only because that's usually required for orangetheory fitness #WomenInMedicine |
| Shannon Scott-Vernaglia, MD @ScottVernaglia @Dr_Jaded @womeninmedchat Yes! Most important part of my week. I think the chance to process the week's ups and downs is more important than any other thing I do for well being. #WomenInMedicine |
| Roxana Daneshjou MD/PhD @RoxanaDaneshjou @womeninmedchat Q2: When my baby was first born, I didn’t have any time for myself. But I was quickly burning out. So now I have some exercise time for myself after she goes to sleep. And I try to hike on the weekends. #womeninmedicine |
| Nikita Gill, MD @NikitaGillMD @womeninmedchat A2: I have to schedule it. Because I’ve learned that, for me, If it’s not in my calendar, it won’t happen 🤷🏽♀️ #WomenInMedicine https://t.co/LzQc9YdD2N |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @MGraceOliver @womeninmedchat @sheMDTweets @ETSshow whoa! I need a print out of this by my desktop -- I have such a hard time saying "no" #WomenInMedicine |
| Valerie A. Fitzhugh, MD @DrFNA @womeninmedchat A3: I am madly in love with my @onepeleton and that keeps me grounded. Honestly, reading and playing with my kids also keeps me happy! #WomenInMedicine |
| Nikita Gill, MD @NikitaGillMD RT @MGraceOliver: @womeninmedchat A2 My #1 wellness move is to always be checking in with myself about what aligns with my values. I made this graphic for @sheMDTweets, but I know @ETSshow is a big fan 👀 This helps me avoid disasters, but I also listen to my body for when I need a break #womeninmedicine https://t.co/eZtkpqlZxa |
| Melina Flanagan, MD, MSPH @MBDFlanaganMD @womeninmedchat I am incredibly busy at work right now. I schedule one work out with a trainer per week on Saturday mornings- it’s all I can do at the moment, but it makes all the difference. #WomenInMedicine #wellness |
| Pooja Lakshmin MD @PoojaLakshmin RT @MGraceOliver: @womeninmedchat A2 My #1 wellness move is to always be checking in with myself about what aligns with my values. I made this graphic for @sheMDTweets, but I know @ETSshow is a big fan 👀 This helps me avoid disasters, but I also listen to my body for when I need a break #womeninmedicine https://t.co/eZtkpqlZxa |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @KhouryMD @womeninmedchat some vitamin sea #WomenInMedicine |
| Indu Partha, MD FACP @InduPartha @womeninmedchat A3: Workout classes, reading, Bookclub, hanging out w hubby and kid(s), silly texts w friends, makeup videos, word games on phone, dinner w friends. #WomeninMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @DRsonosRD @womeninmedchat QD! I need to learn from that. #WomenInMedicine |
| Briana Christophers, PhD @BriChristophers @womeninmedchat Reading is my #1, currently oh book 16 since November 📚 #MedStudentsWhoRead Daily tea & chocolate ritual also help too ☕️🍫 #WomenInMedicine https://t.co/AmLL3cQNiu |
| Mays Ali MD @MaysAliMD @womeninmedchat A3. We are huge fans of the outdoors in my house. Taking the kiddo and puppy out for a stroll with a pit-stop by the ice cream shop is a favorite. Sometimes hubby and I spend an evening on the back deck talking about anything. Those moments sustain me. #WomenInMedicine |
| Pooja Lakshmin MD @PoojaLakshmin This is an amazing tool by @MGraceOliver which breaks down values based living so clearly! |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @SusanHingle @InduPartha @womeninmedchat so true!! #WomenInMedicine |
| ⋆ 🎀 𝒟𝓇𝑒𝒶 🎀 ⋆ is seeing SKZ at lolla @stillastraydrea @womeninmedchat A3: I'm establishing a work out routine, but I'm working on meditating more often. I used to do it before exams to calm myself down and I always felt better, more calm. #WomenInMedicine |
| Indu Partha, MD FACP @InduPartha @womeninmedchat And my Women In Acad Med group at work is the best! #WomenInMedicine |
| Shannon Scott-Vernaglia, MD @ScottVernaglia @womeninmedchat Q3 #WomenInMedicine Reading, gardening, monthly massage with my sister, office pedaling during conference calls, cultivating joy--finding it, reveling in it, engaging fuly in patient care, therapy, good sleep hygeine.... |
| (Legal)Drug Dealer Barbie @drvnessc @womeninmedchat A3. Does reading count as wellness? That’s what brings me the most peace. I have a good book on me wherever I go. #WomenInMedicine |
 | Sarai Ambert-Pompey, MD @SAmbertPompey @womeninmedchat @petradMD @DrKanikaMonga @rheum_cat Hi Sarai Ambert-Pompey Internist in the northwest based in Boise #WomenInMedicine |
| Dr. Kayla @DrKaylaB @womeninmedchat Q3: recently started getting more involved in Twitter. I'm very social so like hanging out with friends at work and outside work. I also write. I used to be a journalist, so writing has to be part of my daily routine, even if it's just me reading it. #WomeninMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @ShreyaTrivediMD @womeninmedchat love this -- consciously choosing my health/wellness #WomenInMedicine |
| Mark Shapiro, MD @ETSshow @womeninmedchat Doing: exercise, podcasting, coffee roasting Miss/restarting: tennis, cocktail creation (dormant x 1 year) Want to start: swimming, meditation #WomeninMedicine |
| Poorva Bindal, MD @PoorvaBindal @womeninmedchat A3: I try to consistently exercise and am now actively trying to read non medical books for leisure before bed! I used to do this before med school but now usually read journals or books authored by other physicians. Unplugging before sleeping is crucial for me. #WomenInMedicine |
| Briana Christophers, PhD @BriChristophers @you2nice2me @womeninmedchat Hey it works! Good day, bad day, meh day are all improved by tea and snacks 🤷🏽♀️ #WomenInMedicine |

| Anita Afzali MD, MPH, MHCM, FACG, AGAF @IBD_Afzali @womeninmedchat A3: Prayers & meditation every morning, journaling, going for walk in evenings without phone or music,...spa & massage and shopping = my wellness as well (rare, but sure!) #WomenInMedicine |
| Valerie A. Fitzhugh, MD @DrFNA @ClinicalPearl @womeninmedchat I read Marvel comics. I hear you. #WomenInMedicine |
| Susan Hingle @SusanHingle @womeninmedchat A3: Time with family brings me wellness #WomenInMedicine https://t.co/MKnVuKMVWJ |
| Grace Oliver, MD @GraceOliverMD @womeninmedchat A3 Im all about that Maslows hierarchy of needs! Sleep, meals, and exercise every day. Even when I’m running short I never regret any of those things. Volunteering, time with friends, writing, bothering my cat are other things that “fill my cup” so to speak. #Womeninmedicine https://t.co/WksxxRZ1nl |
| Susan Hingle @SusanHingle @womeninmedchat A3: Exercise and healthful eating #wellness #WomenInMedicine https://t.co/lQoD1EEBRT |

| Valerie A. Fitzhugh, MD @DrFNA @BriChristophers @womeninmedchat I read @Marvel comics. They make me happy! #WomenInMedicine |
| meshmd @msmemesha @womeninmedchat A3: Happy hour with friends! I’m kind of a Soulcycle junkie. Unfortunately for my husband - shopping. Movies with my kids. Used to be big traveler but my kids are young so it’s on hold until they are a little older #WomeninMedicine |
| Sarai Ambert-Pompey, MD @SAmbertPompey @womeninmedchat A1: Wellness is what fill me - happiness, purpose, fulfillment, love, warmth, community, nourishment #WomeninMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @PoojaLakshmin @womeninmedchat @NatsforDocs @MGraceOliver I need to be more mindful of this #WomenInMedicine |
| Susan Hingle @SusanHingle @womeninmedchat A3: Making time for spirituality #wellness #WomenInMedicine https://t.co/KhH10ucNu3 |
| Pooja Lakshmin MD @PoojaLakshmin @womeninmedchat A3. Psychotherapy, yoga and meditation are my 3 pillars. I try to make it to some type of wellness retreat once a year. Spending quality time with my cats! Traveling. #Womeninmedicine |
| Marie Kuchynski MD @Doctorkuch @womeninmedchat A3. Read books, friend/family time, church. What I struggle with finding time to exercise-long work days exhaust me physically so I try to aim to “get my steps in” at the very least. #WomenInMedicine |
| Priyanka V. Chugh, MD, MS @AntiWheatGirl @womeninmedchat A3 I really enjoy doing service- our school required service as part of our curriculum and had many opportunities to get involved. I really threw myself into a few projects and found a lot of peace and fulfillment there #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @DjekharHadjer @womeninmedchat If I don't schedule, then it doesn't ever happen for me #WomenInMedicine |
| Naomi K. Atkins, DO @NaomiKAtkinsDO @womeninmedchat And I read something for fun every night before I go to sleep. #womeninmedicine |

| Renee Dversdal @DRsonosRD @womeninmedchat A3: I am SO BAD at disconnecting, getting away from work, de-stressing, giving myself permission to sit on couch/not move, etc. That's why I've become so enamored w/ the gym/power lifting & the singular focus w mental freeness from my Type A brain. #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @womeninmedchat A3: Writing, cuddle time with puppy, and orange theory. I want to do more reading, cooking, and more yoga. #WomenInMedicine |
| Mark Shapiro, MD @ETSshow @MGraceOliver @FutureDOctorD @womeninmedchat Want to start! Resource you’d suggest please? #WomenInMedicine |
| Valerie A. Fitzhugh, MD @DrFNA @drvnessc @womeninmedchat Yes it does! #WomenInMedicine |
| Shreya P. Trivedi MD, MHPE @ShreyaTrivediMD @IreneTienMD @womeninmedchat Yes! Do you find that its easier to find in EM?! A few of friends work 2-3 shifts/week and i do get jealous from time to time #WomeninMedicine |
| Valerie A. Fitzhugh, MD @DrFNA @MaysAliMD @womeninmedchat Playing outside with my babies is the best! #WomenInMedicine |

| Grace Oliver, MD @GraceOliverMD @AntiWheatGirl @womeninmedchat I LOVED spending time volunteering in medical school💕 it’s why I found family medicine as my calling, taught me about SDOH, it’s so awesome #womeninmedicine |
| Renee Dversdal @DRsonosRD @womeninmedchat A3 cont: plus, doing something you never dreamed of in the past, and if asked wouldn't have said was possible gives a huge natural high. I feel like a weightlifting evangelist ;) #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @drvnessc @womeninmedchat :) that sounds wonderful. I have a hard time sticking to my schedule even if it's made #WomenInMedicine |
| Susan Hingle @SusanHingle @drvnessc @womeninmedchat A3: Agree! Reading for #wellness #WomenInMedicine |
| Ruth Habte, MD @ruthmhabte @ETSshow @womeninmedchat I roast coffee too! I also love (listening to) podcasts. #WomenInMedicine |
| Mays Ali MD @MaysAliMD @PoojaLakshmin @womeninmedchat @NatsforDocs @MGraceOliver This is so important. A mentor once told me that I needed to ensure my goals aligned with my values before I made any big decision. When goals and values aren't in harmony, your happiness suffers. I have found this to be 100% true. #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @ruthmhabte @womeninmedchat It's been so nice for me to have a network outside of "medicine" #WomenInMedicine |
| Valerie A. Fitzhugh, MD @DrFNA @ETSshow @womeninmedchat I wish I could get back into fencing but it is a time suck... #WomenInMedicine |

| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @jessiebryce @womeninmedchat ahh doing nothing sounds so perfect -- knowing that we need different aspects of wellness as different times is what I'm still learning #WomenInMedicine |
| Melina Flanagan, MD, MSPH @MBDFlanaganMD @womeninmedchat A3: like I said in A2, my one scheduled wellness activity is working out with a trainer. I’d like to work out more but that’s all I can fit. I’d like more time for crafts. Took a day off from work to make pysanky (Ukrainian Easter eggs) before Easter. #WomenInMedicine |
| Susan Hingle @SusanHingle @womeninmedchat A3: I intentionally chose to be happy #wellness #WomenInMedicine https://t.co/d15whTZUUt |

| Grace Oliver, MD @GraceOliverMD @ETSshow @FutureDOctorD @womeninmedchat My fave is @Headspace! It has a free version that teaches you how, and premium with a massive library of different topics of meditation. Several free apps out there but I opted for this one after trying them. Never slept better! #Womeninmedicine |
| Dr. Kayla @DrKaylaB @meggerber @womeninmedchat Haven't published anything in a while (and my professional work was in TV news), but did blog for HuffPo in residency #WomenInMedicine https://t.co/rgsHB0sWVf |
 | Women Neurologists Group @WNGtweets @womeninmedchat A3: Journaling, making music, spending time with family, connecting with peers on social media and in real life! #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @MBDFlanaganMD @womeninmedchat I definitely love the idea of having a trainer for that reason -- I'm held accountable. Even if not for my sake, I'll show up because I told the trainer I would haha #WomenInMedicine |
| Renee Dversdal @DRsonosRD @ETSshow @MGraceOliver @FutureDOctorD @womeninmedchat I love the Bhuddify app! You pick the exercise based on what you're doing (in car, stressed, going to sleep, can't sleep, etc). #WomenInMedicine |
| Paneez Khoury, MD (she/her) @KhouryMD @womeninmedchat Yoga, running/workout, coffee (roasting and brewing), kombucha, cooking, friends, kids soccer/tennis, wish I had time for more reading and movies. #WomeninMedicine |
| Priyanka V. Chugh, MD, MS @AntiWheatGirl @MGraceOliver @womeninmedchat Yes absolutely!!! It was so important for me to find a residency program that values this too- not common in surgery programs unfortunately #WomenInMedicine |

 | Jillian Bybee, MD (she/her) @LifeandPICU @womeninmedchat A3: I currently engage in daily Mindfulness meditation. Additionally, weekly reading and spinning. I would love to engage in more community building activities at the hospital I work at, but that would require having more time. #womeninmedicine |
 | Dr. Atasha Jordan, MBA @AtashaJordan @womeninmedchat A3: I used creative outlets as my source of wellness! (Blogging, interior decor, and jigsaw puzzles). I also made sure to make attending church a priority, even if I had to go to evening service sometimes #womeninmedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @MParshleyMD @womeninmedchat Wow, this is great. You are so right. Perhaps this is where the root of the problem is? I'm trying so hard to schedule and find wellness outside of work #WomenInMedicine |
| #WomenInMedicine Chat @womeninmedchat Awesome input everybody! Now it's time for our last question, Q4: How can we be more active in promoting wellness among trainees? Are there any initiatives that have been incorporated into our current training or workplace that work? #WomeninMedicine https://t.co/9RzozbKi8a |
| Melina Flanagan, MD, MSPH @MBDFlanaganMD @DrKanikaMonga @womeninmedchat It’s worth every penny for me. Id have no clue what to do otherwise. I just show up and do what I’m told. I kind of like turning my brain off for a bit. #WomenInMedicine |
| 🏳️🌈That💉Clinical💊Instructor🚑 @ThatClinical @womeninmedchat A2: Making a conscious effort to schedule wellness time is essential for maintaining wellness. As big as a vacation, as small as 10 minutes of daily meditation, it’s all important. #WomenInMedicine |

| Grace Oliver, MD @GraceOliverMD @DrKanikaMonga @womeninmedchat @sheMDTweets @ETSshow It’s so difficult! 😫 especially when it’s an exciting new project opportunity you think “oh welllll this aligns with my values so it’s fine 🙈” but then you end up needing a time turner #womeninmedicine |
| Emily Shaffer, DO @DrMissWV @womeninmedchat A3❤️ going for walks in the park- esp when it’s this time of year!

| Dr. Atasha Jordan, MBA @AtashaJordan @womeninmedchat @petradMD @DrKanikaMonga @rheum_cat 👋🏾👋🏾 Hi everyone! I’m signing in late as I just landed I’m the beautiful island of Tobago! Excited that I can catch some of the chat while I wait for my luggage. Oh! And this is my first time joining as an MD, not a Med student 😄😄 #womeninmedicine |
| Sarai Ambert-Pompey, MD @SAmbertPompey @womeninmedchat A2: I have a mental checks and balance of sorts. I have a personal calendar and family calendar in addition to work calendar. I have also learn through introspection take more of me and arranged for activities that fill me soon after. #WomeninMedicine |
| Priyanka V. Chugh, MD, MS @AntiWheatGirl @womeninmedchat A4 im so excited that my residency program @The_BMC @BMCSurgery schedules primary care appointments for any interns who want them during orientation. I signed up immediately! It was amazing to know my health was valued #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @MaysAliMD @womeninmedchat I love this perspective -- and so true. The spontaneous ones I don't need to plan out, but need to be aware to take advantage of any opportunity #WomenInMedicine |
| Priyanka V. Chugh, MD, MS @AntiWheatGirl @AtashaJordan @womeninmedchat @petradMD @DrKanikaMonga @rheum_cat Oooooh girl you are doing wellness right!! #WomenInMedicine |
 | Brian McGillen, MD @BMcGillenMD RT @UAWomenAcadMed: How to be an #ally. #WomenInMedicine #RepresentationMatters #diversityandinclusion #LatinasInMedicine #LGBTQ #BlackWomenInMedicine #BlackMenInMedicine Everyone deserves their voice to be heard. https://t.co/Yp3Pqis30v |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @womeninmedchat A4: When I was in residency we initiated programs for wellness -- included happy hours, buddy system, tai chi, reflection paragraphs, and safe space for feedback. Making residents feel comfortable to take "me" time off as needed. #WomenInMedicine |
| Valerie A. Fitzhugh, MD @DrFNA @womeninmedchat A4: I’ve taken my residents out for activities to promote wellness in our program. Fun things like bowling. They also do nature hikes, etc. It works out amazingly! #WomenInMedicine |
| Susan Hingle @SusanHingle @womeninmedchat A4: We have #wellnessrounds for our trainees in the ICU. We have a haircut half-day during our residents Yweek @SIUIntMed @siusom #WomenInMedicine |
| Shreya P. Trivedi MD, MHPE @ShreyaTrivediMD @womeninmedchat A4. Day 1 of floors setting the #expectation that 1) high quality patient care & 2) own wellness -- whatever that may mean for each 1 is of highest priorities. I have every1 say outloud their 1) clinical & 2) wellness goal and ensure we loop back 2x/week on it #WomeninMedicine |
| ⋆ 🎀 𝒟𝓇𝑒𝒶 🎀 ⋆ is seeing SKZ at lolla @stillastraydrea @womeninmedchat A4: I'm not sure, but something my school did was offer free workout classes and advertise their counseling center. I think it's important to know these resource are available. #WomenInMedicine |
| Grace Oliver, MD @GraceOliverMD @AntiWheatGirl @womeninmedchat It’s alright I’ll see you on those medical field missions in a couple years 😎 #womeninmedicine |
| R Logan Jones, MD FACP @rloganjonesmd @womeninmedchat A4: one of my dream items for trainees is more granular control of schedules (can take 3-4 day weekends rather than forced 7 day stretches). Friends/family not in medicine don’t grasp this often, and it makes finding opportunities for wellness further between #Womeninmedicine |
| Marie Kuchynski MD @Doctorkuch @womeninmedchat A4. Role model—trainees need to hear that we have lives outside the hospital walls-talk about your kids, your hobbies, your favorite movies. #WomenInMedicine |
| Shannon Scott-Vernaglia, MD @ScottVernaglia @womeninmedchat Model self care. Trainees see us as "having it all" often. I tell people, I can't meet Fridays before 3 b/c I see my psychiatrist after my AM pts. I'm taking this week off for self care //I'm coming in late because I have a massage with my sister. Make it okay #WomenInMedicine |
| Susan Hingle @SusanHingle @womeninmedchat A4: Include trainees on your wellness committees! #WomeninMedicine |
| Dr. Kayla @DrKaylaB @womeninmedchat A4: I'm going to take a somewhat controversial stance on this. Revamp physician health programs (too many are corrupt) and challenge state licensing boards that ask ADA-forbidden questions on applications about mental health history. #WomenInMedicine |
| Marie Kuchynski MD @Doctorkuch @ShreyaTrivediMD @womeninmedchat Awesome idea. ,more powerful when verbalized. #WomenInMedicine |
| Women Neurologists Group @WNGtweets @womeninmedchat A4: Making reasonable schedules, offering backup and treating everyone respectfully is the cornerstone of promoting wellness for trainees. Sharing our own vulnerability and mistakes can help promote an accepting environment. #WomeninMedicine |
| R Logan Jones, MD FACP @rloganjonesmd @SusanHingle @womeninmedchat @SusanHingle #Womeninmedicine https://t.co/JypaZBVNfX |
| Grace Oliver, MD @GraceOliverMD @ClinicalPearl @womeninmedchat Omg i need to go to the dentist #womeninmedicine |
| Renee Dversdal @DRsonosRD @womeninmedchat A4: I believe the single most important activity to promote wellness amongst trainees is sharing honestly about our own challenges & how we found wellness after stalling, failing, burning out, getting anxious or depressed, anything. Authenticity, not preaching. #WomenInMedicine |
| (Legal)Drug Dealer Barbie @drvnessc @womeninmedchat A4. If we could talk more often about why we chose the medical field and what our passions in medicine are then work might feel more like wellness. Also making it a point to give people an adequate break during the day to recharge. #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @DrMissWV @womeninmedchat walks in the park :) I definitely avoid phone calls but whenever I do get on the phone, it's always more rejuvenating and fulfilling #WomenInMedicine |
| Shreya P. Trivedi MD, MHPE @ShreyaTrivediMD @womeninmedchat 2/ I really liked this piece by @SumitKumarMD @YaleIMed about letting trainees do what wellness means for them #WomeninMedicine https://t.co/Wt3sGkPpMm |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @IBD_Afzali @womeninmedchat Thank you for sharing! This all sounds so wonderful #WomenInMedicine |
| Shannon Scott-Vernaglia, MD @ScottVernaglia RT @SusanHingle: @womeninmedchat A4: @womeninmedchat A4: Role model #wellness #WomenInMedicine https://t.co/xOzuqgaQzw |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @TajKatt @womeninmedchat Thanks for all that you do!!! #WomenInMedicine |
| Jillian Bybee, MD (she/her) @LifeandPICU @womeninmedchat A4: Our residents seem to enjoy the debrief sessions that we schedule in lieu of regular didactic sessions after they finish their PICU/NICU blocks. I facilitate along with one of my colleagues and our chaplains. #womeninmedicine |
| Indu Partha, MD FACP @InduPartha @womeninmedchat #WomenInMedicine |
| Mays Ali MD @MaysAliMD @womeninmedchat I always try to role model work-life integration and practice what I preach. I talk openly about my life outside of the hospital and am not shy to let people know that family is a priority. I also stress to all trainees that self-care breeds better physicians. #WomenInMedicine |
| Shreya P. Trivedi MD, MHPE @ShreyaTrivediMD @womeninmedchat @SumitKumarMD @YaleIMed 3/ "Wellness is not a one-size-fits-all concept. What resident physicians need is the unstructured time to define for themselves what wellness is, to seek it out, and to feel #guilt-free in doing so." #WomeninMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @you2nice2me @womeninmedchat This is so inspiring! Good luck! #WomenInMedicine |
| Valerie A. Fitzhugh, MD @DrFNA @LifeandPICU @womeninmedchat @onepeloton It really us! #WomenInMedicine |
 | AMS, MD @Ilikethedark1 @womeninmedchat A4: Wellness is not always about adding something into a schedule which might be overwhelming. I would encourage trainees not to feel pressured to do it all. It’s ok to say “no” to that research project you are not enthusiastic about , for example. #WomenInMedicine |
| Priyanka V. Chugh, MD, MS @AntiWheatGirl @rheum_cat @womeninmedchat @The_BMC @BMCSurgery @OHSUIMRes Still that’s great! Having the consistency to be able to make appointments after that initial one will be important too I think #WomenInMedicine |
| Otter Cat, DO (she/her) @Dr_Jaded @womeninmedchat A4 Creating systems where taking a sick day is not seen as weak or shameful and getting doctors appointments is prioritized per the guidelines #womeninmedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @rose_m_olson @womeninmedchat Agreed! Trying hard to figure out the best way to institutionalize it -- to create a culture of wellness #WomenInMedicine |
| Dr. Atasha Jordan, MBA @AtashaJordan @womeninmedchat From a wholistic wellness perspective, I know that I plan to be purposeful about making time for my hobbies. I’m not sure how this can be institutionalized though. #womeninMedicine |
| Dr. Kayla @DrKaylaB @womeninmedchat Until our resources (PHPs) can be used without concern for our license or loss of privacy, wellness will be a fairytale for so many of our colleagues. #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @AtashaJordan @womeninmedchat Love blogging too! #WomenInMedicine |
| Briana Christophers, PhD @BriChristophers @womeninmedchat A4. Be understanding with folks; do things to show that you are thinking about them; discourage conversation idealizing sleep deprivation & self sacrifice; encourage trainees to support each other; self-serving request: free tea lol #WomenInMedicine |
| 🏳️🌈That💉Clinical💊Instructor🚑 @ThatClinical @womeninmedchat A3: My wellness is important daily, and j prefer to focus on small things like daily meditation and starting/ending my day with my favorite music. However, the most important thing I do is spend time with my family, and enjoy every moment. #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @LifeandPICU @womeninmedchat I want to add daily meditation on my list of things to do. I started doing it after new years but now... #WomenInMedicine |
| Grace Oliver, MD @GraceOliverMD @womeninmedchat A4 Stop acting like even 80 hour work weeks (or more, which many are forced to do) are normal, acceptable, or necessary. No more of the “well back in MY DAY” or “suck it up, it’s for learning” garbage. #Womeninmedicine |
 | UAZ Women in Medicine and Science-Tucson @UAZWIMSTucson So wonderful to see qualified bright physicians like Dr. Sumler in prominent positions! #WomenInMedicine |
| Susan Hingle @SusanHingle @womeninmedchat A4: Share your vulnerability with your trainees can be very helpful for your wellness and theirs! #WomenInMedicine https://t.co/V3uaxQNFSP |

| Sarai Ambert-Pompey, MD @SAmbertPompey @womeninmedchat A3: I love activities I get to engage with my peers: faculty developments & collabs. Outside of work no secret: stationary bike, balance food that is good & bad (good for the soul), music! hubby is in a band, video games, any combo music, games, family & friends #WomeninMedicine |

| Poorva Bindal, MD @PoorvaBindal @womeninmedchat A4: As chief, ideas that worked: -Innovative quarterly wellness luncheons replacing didactics for a day. We tried accupuncture, chair massage, coloring or just music with lunch! All were a hit! -Dog therapy for resident lounge 🙌🏼 #WomenInMedicine |
| Mark Shapiro, MD @ETSshow @gjkwon @womeninmedchat There’s legit nothing like it, changes the coffee game forever #WomenInMedicine |

 | Kira Newman, MD, PhD @KiraNewmanMDPhD @womeninmedchat @womeninmedchat A4: As a trainee, having attendings on service for two weeks at a time rather than shorter intervals helps. It lets the team set a rhythm and build trust/rapport. #WomenInMedicine |
| Shannon Scott-Vernaglia, MD @ScottVernaglia @womeninmedchat @DrKanikaMonga @rheum_cat @petradMD Thanks for a lovely chat @DrKanikaMonga @rheum_cat @petradMD #WomenInMedicine |

| Monia Werlang, MD @MoniaWerlangMD @womeninmedchat A4: be the role model for the very basics of self care: take time to actually do it + talk about how you prioritize making appointments with your primary care doc, preventive care, dentist... And let trainees take time to do those things too! #WomenInMedicine |
| Mark Shapiro, MD @ETSshow @LifeandPICU @MGraceOliver @FutureDOctorD @womeninmedchat @danbharris @SharonSalzberg I’m gonna try that book, if just for the bananas-great name alone! #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @DjekharHadjer @womeninmedchat I'm always game for extra free time #WomenInMedicine -- and if activities are institutionalized perhaps making them optional? |
| Valerie A. Fitzhugh, MD @DrFNA @MGraceOliver @ClinicalPearl @womeninmedchat Ugh. But I understand #WomenInMedicine |
| Kanika Monga, MD @DrKanikaMonga @LifeandPICU @womeninmedchat debriefing after rotations was so essential to well-being -- sometimes just knowing you aren't the only one was enough #WomenInMedicine |
 | Patricia Ann @Patricia_Ann_E RT @womeninmedchat: Awesome input everybody! Now it's time for our last question, Q4: How can we be more active in promoting wellness among trainees? Are there any initiatives that have been incorporated into our current training or workplace that work? #WomeninMedicine https://t.co/9RzozbKi8a |
| Renee Dversdal @DRsonosRD @DrKaylaB @womeninmedchat Love where you are going here & couldn't agree more. Lucky that at my uni resident/faculty wellness center is completely separate from EMR, and myself & many others trust them completely. But they will do no good if seeking help invites loss of privacy or worse. #WomenInMedicine |
| Poorva Bindal, MD @PoorvaBindal @womeninmedchat Our program created a wellness committee @UConnIM that organised events outside of work (treasure hunts, kayaking, hiking trips) that residents can enjoy! Chiefs also find coverage for residents to attend non urgent doc's appointments even during call blocks. #WomenInMedicine |
| Valerie A. Fitzhugh, MD @DrFNA @EileenBarrettNM @ClinicalPearl @womeninmedchat I cannot wait!!! #WomenInMedicine |
| Patricia Ann @Patricia_Ann_E RT @MGraceOliver: @womeninmedchat A4 Stop acting like even 80 hour work weeks (or more, which many are forced to do) are normal, acceptable, or necessary. No more of the “well back in MY DAY” or “suck it up, it’s for learning” garbage. #Womeninmedicine |
