Who We Are


Flourish is a literary magazine from Advaita Health, a space for words and images that explore what it means to heal, to struggle, to grow. We believe in stories that tend to the inner life — the quiet breakthroughs, the hard-earned resilience, the small moments that make a life whole.

What We Publish


We welcome poetry, essays, short stories, and hybrid forms, alongside visual art and photography. We seek work that feels alive — pieces that speak honestly to the complexity of mental health, recovery, and human connection.

Stories & Submissions


Most written work falls between 1,000–3,500 words, though we’re open to shorter flashes or longer meditations if the form serves the story. Please send completed drafts for poems, essays, and stories; for reported or experimental work, thoughtful pitches are welcome. If this is your first time writing for us, include a short note about yourself, why this story matters to you, and links to past work if available.


Guidelines

  • Every piece should hold some thread of healing, growth, or what it means to flourish.
  • Use your subject line to show us what makes your piece singular.
  • Our editorial team aims to respond within 8 weeks; if you don’t hear back in 3 months, consider it a gentle no.
  • We are a literary home, not an academic journal — we’re looking for voices, not footnotes.
  • Occasionally, we publish pieces that respond to the world as it unfolds. If your work is timely, please mark it TIME SENSITIVE in the additional notes line.
