The ELLEN LARSEN story
Manage episode 461617637 series 3237136
Ellen Larsen and her husband Per Arne, from near Oslo in Norway, have both overcome hugely challenging health conditions to enjoy life again, using golf as a regular shared activity to inspire them.
“Through golf you keep social, physically active and get a good brain workout,” explains Ellen who, after back surgery to help a long-standing neurological condition, has a weakened left leg and mobility problems.
“Golfing is my meditation… I do not do yoga, I play golf! I have learned to focus on what I can manage, instead of the opposite.”
Per Arne and Ellen want to share golf with others, so they are golf volunteers helping new people into the game, including people with disabilities who are in rehabilitation after health trauma.
