Abstract
This study aims to deepen the understanding of how different aspects of Arts on Prescription Finsam Mittskåne lead to improved well-being among the participants. The method is qualitative interviews with previous participants in Arts on Prescription and observations of a current group during their activities.

The results show that being part of a group motivates participants to continue participation through mutual
support and acceptance, and gives the participants a sense of group identity. At the same time, the social aspect can... (More)
This study aims to deepen the understanding of how different aspects of Arts on Prescription Finsam Mittskåne lead to improved well-being among the participants. The method is qualitative interviews with previous participants in Arts on Prescription and observations of a current group during their activities. The group aspect, lack of pressure, and resonance in Arts on Prescription were analysed using Wenger´s (1998) model of Community of Practice and Rosa´s (2013, 2020) theory of Social Acceleration and Resonance. The results show that being part of a group motivates participants to continue participation through mutual
support and acceptance, and gives the participants a sense of group identity. At the same time, the social aspect can be draining for some participants. Additionally, internal and external pressure to be productive can limit the participants' full participation in the activities. Arts on Prescription works to alleviate this pressure by a) fostering an open and permissive attitude from the group leaders and other participants and b) providing participants with alternate methods to handle pressure. This leads to the possibility for participants to experience resonance, which can improve well-being. It shows that active practice can enhance resonance. The analysis also provides a deeper understanding of participants' sense of timelessness during artistic activities, an important aspect of resonance. A factor that improves the ability to experience resonance is experiencing the arts through both the intellect and the senses. A sense of community, freedom from pressure, and involvement in the arts combine to make resonance
possible and can lead to improved well-being. (Less)
